the worst

I don’t want her they don’t want me
Last chance
Ain’t free
What I have they won’t let be
I’m a song
Not a plea
I’m a villain with a curse
What’s worse, what’s worse?
Call our hearse
I’m not unversed
Oh child I love you the worst
Hated you first
They don’t want me well then fuck me
I’m gone
Home free
I don’t need this shit, see?
I’m the worst
Well then what’s she?

Leaden Eyes
03:26
|

|
If a woman looked at me
With leaden eyes
Under indigo skies
Would I remember sunrise?
Take me home like by surprise
You are no placebo
I can’t believe though
If a woman touched me
With that shy plea
A shore to a sea
Would I remember running free?
Take it off, my heart for your key
I can’t believe for being midair
I can’t breathe when you kiss me there
Poem, you’re a poem I wish you’d share
Take me in, home somewhere

Wildflower Crown
02:44
|
|||
|
I write poems in my sleep
I dream and then weep
Ocean wide, wading deep
My key is yours to keep
You’re a wildflower in a book
You be the verse I’ll be the hook
I set my alarm for midnight
Hoping it doesn’t strike
I love you like riding a bike
You ruin me just right
It has never been so easy to take such a fall
A wildflower on the wrong side of the wall
(Crowed a lover, I get down and crawl)
But sunshine makes my heart grow tall
(You’re a summer storm, I dance in rainfall)
Is a dream so crazy after all?

Autumn
02:56
|
|||
|
I shake the tree
Called forbidden
Naked no longer hidden
And you fell as I shook
Autumn took
A page from your book
She took me in autumn
Showed me the bottom
In a love that could never blossom
Like a dream-caught leaf
To mark my page
We were timeless in this age
And you fell as I shook
Autumn took
A page from your book
She took me in autumn
Showed me the bottom
In a love that could never blossom
I’m a black a sheep
She wore the hood
Was the fall for me any good?

Mirage (Interlude)
01:11
|
|||
|
(I thought I hallucinated her)
I do not fear,
Dear
I do not flee,
That isn’t me, see
If it weren’t for we
A star-crossed lover
No other
I suffer
You are the sun
The star, the only one
I am Icarus, the master of none
I melt when you let me become
You taught me to fly when I knew only run
You’re the part of me greater than the sum
I’m star-struck dumb
A seed that needed freed, to come undone
Every kite stuck in a tree made of gum
Or thunderstormed with a key clumsily hung
You are the green unforseen to my thumb
You are the redwood in a forest humdrum You hurt me out of the highway hum
You hurt me because I knew only numb

Anthology
04:03
|
|||
|
A funeral stole every flower I knew
It turns out they were all meant for you
My love story was meant for you
I just didn’t know what to do
This is the wrong life where I chose to persevere
The badlands drought, the black drew near
In another life, we go along
Torn, I dreamed you a song
The fairy tale ending had it wrong
But the pages of you go on and on
I loved our dream
That’d just begun
The dream unseen
That you were made from
But the poems for me
Were warm like a gun
You held to my head
I love you is what I said

Lullabies
02:34
|
|||
|
I thought you'd untaught to me to sleep
Wake me up because I’m in too deep
There was a quiet to keep
Sleep-talk don’t come cheap
Lullabies
Lullabies
Lullabies are for goodbyes
I don’t know what you want from me
There’s no song that will let me be
Freedom just don’t come free
The liar whispers “we”
There’s an emptiness in my bed
A figment had lied there instead
I’ll never forget the words she said
The romance was all in my head

Liar in My Dreams
03:02
|
|||
|
You give me perfect pictures
Perfect pictures of love
I’ll never have
You’re a liar and you’re bad
Liar and you’re bad
These fake fucking dreams we had
They’re all gone and I’m glad
You give me perfect weather
Perfect weather
To kill my self in a storm
You make the vultures swarm
Make the vultures swam
Attention keeps you warm
Took me down like chloroform
You give me
A sad story line
Sad story line
That kills me by design
You said to call you mine
Said you call you mine
Then said I crossed a line
A housewife or a landmine?
I will not
Wait here anymore
Wait here anymore
Cause loving you’s a chore
Knowing you’s a chore.
I’ll lie back down on the floor
You’re fucked up to the core
We dreamed, but I don’t know what for
Leave the key to my heart in the door
