Down a Wooded Driveway Anchored to this ground There sits a house It's plastered so vivid inside and out From time to time it's light explodes Bursting blues and greens into the night sky Flickering light She whispers reds and yellows Lilacs Bloom Swimming between these evergreens Dirt and earth weave away roots of an ashy memory The heart of this house outgrows its mossy roof So its pinks and purples drip and seep into the clean dirt The gentle ghost knives limb through limb You kept your lips stretched for miles and miles and miles You laid silent, until she crushed the air around your head Bursting blue and greens into the night sky Flickering light She whispers reds and yellows Lilacs Bloom Swimming between these evergreens Dirt and earth weave away roots of an ashy memory

Acrylic Road 04:59
I heard cloud whisper through my hair The barbed fence ticks like a picture wheel I went to see the sky at its lowest tide I want to see this drenched in its graphite dreams Mountain peeks scraped away by the gentle hands of a giant white ghost Thats where you'll find me today I took the long way home I want to be where blades of grass flicker to the sound of rain layers of watercolor wilt with the fallen brush stroke I went to see the sky at its lowest tide I want to see this town become drenched in its own graphite dreams This acrylic road has its faults but its my sanctuary I took the long way home I took the long way home I took the long way home

Aphonic 07:44
In the crowded street I feel a heavy gaze I look around Nothing but static Nothing but everything These times have all changed Or maybe it's just the rain It soaks through, and rinses out our words Flowing through the veins of this city Bursting hearts with immune hands The sand between our feet washed away Shaking like a leaf, pale, aphonic The words gush like blood between the teeth They gush like blood between the teeth To have the water fill the body The ocean's in the heart, the river is in my arms And the rain in my hands Still not enough what is it I can't understand Can't understand Shaking like leaf I'd be all of that Denying my element Full of false memories No the words they gush like blood between the teeth It's raining, down, down, down.

A candle lit room Maps limp, outstretched on the floor A full pack rests against the door Vibrant eyes ready to taste the exotic air of a different land His reflection smiles in the mirror A flicker of light he disappeared Life bogged down in a valley sunken A promise of life hidden within the mountains A colored sky waves the sun goodnight Again, again, again How can my eyes fill myself whole when I leak through How can I smile with my lips tied to the floor How can my eyes fill myself whole when I leak through these pours The cracks within his skin breath out emptiness How long can you keep this up How long, how long How long can you keep this up Deep between the trees Lights give birth to something How can my eyes fill myself whole when I leak through my pours How can I smile with my lips tied to the floor They're tied to the floor Deep between the trees Lights give birth to something How long can you keep this up
