Walking

Things, they get so heavy
when you walk next to me
Tie my arms to the ceiling
Make me spew my feelings
Now we're walking, now we're walking, now we're walking
I don't think that I'm ever gonna leave your side.
The snow's no match for the liquor
With every step, we fall quicker
Now we're walking, now we're walking, now we're walking
Let me go, I don't wanna be here next year.
Caps and gowns and high socks
Martin's gone again
I should've said something,
I should've said something...
Now we're walking, now we're walking, now we're walking
Take me back I don't wanna write poems next year
I don't think that I'm ever gonna leave your side.

Old Friends

So let's raise our hands tonight,
keep singing while the world ends
The rain is coming down
and we're laughing with our old friends
and we're never gonna die,
I'll see you all tomorrow,
I'll see you all tomorrow.
We built a bridge
we swore we'd jump off
Your leg, my leg
your skin was so soft
We built a home
we swore we'd burn
We were just kids,
I'm just a kid
So we'll run into oceans,
gasp for air, lost at sea
and we'll hide and seek for hours
like we're supposed to.
Let's raise our hands tonight,
keep singing while the world ends
The rain is coming down
The smoke in your hair,
the salt in your skin,
the green in your eyes
when you smile, I breathe it all in
We lit a fire and shouted our names
These days, they don't crack quite the same
These days, they don't crack quite the same…
Let's raise our hands tonight,
keep singing while the world ends
The rain is coming down
and we're laughing with our old friends
and we're never gonna die,
I'll see you all tomorrow,
I'll see you all tomorrow.

Shaky Hands
04:32
|

Close your eyes, sometimes
it's gonna take a little more than that,
oh, darling…
Say goodbye, sometimes
sometimes
Slam the door, sometimes
it's gonna put you on the floor like that
and you've gotta
Say goodbye sometimes
sometimes
Breathe it in, sometimes
it's gonna take a little more than that,
oh, darling…
Touch my skin, sometimes
sometimes
Breath me out, sometimes
you could bring me to the floor like that,
oh darling…
Full of doubt, sometimes
sometimes
She said,
"Men don't tremble,
they write words with their pens.
I need a rock, shaky hands
can't touch my skin."
We're both shaking now.
Can't stop shaking now.
Oh, shaky hands
Oh, shaky hands.

Albatrosses
03:09
|

Albatrosses feel nice
when they're thrown, but
sometimes we try
desperately to keep our own.
I called six times
to hear you cry my name
one last time, goodbye
miss shaved hair, miss bright eyes,
miss soft skin in armor
I love you like shackled hands
love dark rooms, I need you
in my bones and I'm not proud.
Fill your lungs with my air
and breathe out my confidence.
Close your eyes and he's there.
Albatrosses leave us all alone
with bracelets on thin wrists
I gave you mine and called it home
You hung my shadow
to cover your dirty walls
I feel you in my bones.
Fill your lungs with my air
and breathe out my confidence
Close your eyes and he's there
These flowers are growing from sidewalks
and your smile's cracking...

Warm

Blue and yellow stardust in her eyes
but I'm too scared of stormy skies,
a pile of insecurities
strewn across the bed
I hear every word you've said.
Tell me what you do with kissing ducks,
sober nights and basketball court fucks
I hear every breath you took.
Run back to the sun
Crawl back into the womb
to keep me warm
Mountaintops where it's hard to breathe
She looked at me.
When I wake up in the morning she'll be gone,
replaced by dew on summer lawns
Alcohol and blue and white
helps me feel the truth
I feel everything you do.
