about

A song for backyards.

lyrics

smile and waste
miles of idiots, won't you count them out or down?
wasted lake, traced and finished
but not laid out so far

i like things that you wrote down
even when it broke me clean
you stand on a tiny mountaintop
i'm buried in leaves

i can't sleep with shit decisions
and i can't even shut my eyes
i will walk down back alleys and
smile

overgrown, overcast today
folded foxtail bending low
horns they ring, cymbals shake
and the neighbors shut their doors

skeleton, overhanging
brittle branches hasten, now
salty seas, away and in me are
weightless, floating, gone

i can't see for losing lately i
worship warmth and solid shapes
send the message, leave the response
blank

but understand that i will
be the first and last to fall
words get spun, before it's done
i'll hang on
