lyrics

I've been eyeing these kingdoms, think I can do better
But what? Expect to topple walls with these open letters?
Bitter flavors in the back of the mouth
when I think to what I've written about
All these poets and dreams
Feel coming on a vendetta
When I stare in the mirror
A feeling much stronger
Than felt for empires or kings
Watch the flow under the bridge
And myself washing away with it
Letting myself just feel the world turning

Hold my head as I swallow my tongue
Say this this shit as long there is no follow up
Alright? Alright. Alright?
Keep on getting it down
Keep on getting it down

Pen & paper terrain shaker
Topsoil and surface ripple translator
No imprint in the clay,
Hemingway
Rolling in his grave for the waste of space
Takes for me to say anything
At all
I haul
tombs & teetering folios
I scrawl my worst fears & plans
I stall
I feel my downfall coming on
Tripping on these pages that I’ve been musing on

I’ve been bleeding the page
From this comfortable chair showing my age
I’ve been throwing phrases, hearing them back
From the wall paper, watching it crack
