Missed Connections

You were like a pond
Still and patiently
Inviting me to skip a stone
Across the scene
And we were like a waterfall
An impressive sight to see
But Hollywood and heroin
Are like the sea
I thought you’d find your own path home
Some of us take the long way
Missed connections missing nothing good
It’s written in your bones
You were like a pond
Unironically
Marking the point where we lost our connection
To our sense of stability
Left in a state of unvisited serenity
But Hollywood and heroin
Are like the sea
I thought you’d find your own path home
Some of us take the long way
Missed connections missing nothing good
It’s written in your bones
Hollywood and heroin
Are like the sea

No Man

I was once a man
Who believed that things could happen even in the cancer age
For my first trick
I tried to build some kid a future
Using only my bare hands
He wrote me a letter
He used a real pen
And then...
Some apparently said I was quite a man
Said I had sixteen kids
Or maybe just one
For my final trick
I disappeared into the wilds of our middle states
He wrote me a letter
He used a real stamp
But goddamn
It found no man
Making a difference
Making it better
Don't ask the children of the dead
You won't believe the things they'll say
Don't ask the children of the children of the children of the dead

Poltergeists

I guess we thought we deserve to be
Haunted somewhat respectably
Always going to be let down
Never going to be left out
Taunted by poltergeists again
Just when we think we let it go
They pierce our sleep to let us know
We're miles away from earning proper ghosts
I guess we thought we earned the right to be
Left alone with our misery
Always going to be let down
Never going to be left out
Fucked with by poltergeists again
Just when we think we let it go
They pierce our sleep to let us know
We're years away from earning proper ghosts
Don't you feel the prying eyes
From the corners of the room
At the start of each night?
Don't you feel the heat of judgement
From the space below the stairs
When the wind is right?
Don't you think that they'll abandon us
When we become less sore?
When we start to talk again?
Don't you think that they'll abandon
All these petty fascinations and move along?
Don't you think?
Don't you dream?
Don't you pray?
Room to room?
Day to day?
Because it's hard to imagine that this will be anything but passing
And we're just one stop along the way

Lost Time Journal

Loved ones strain to use these modern things
While liars share their wisdom on our screens
We found comfort in the pace
Until it ran its course
Oh, what unfamiliar shames these nights can bring
Who’s left to drain the rivers now?
The truth that we'd all heard
Displaced by the absurd
What’s left when novelty runs out?
Who’s panicked and unclean?
Who’s marked by ghosts unseen?
Some people draw the blinds
And others bury their sensations
And some can’t bear to wait this out
We’re going back to a simple environment
In this semi-permanent uncertainty
With hopes for things to come
Who’s left to drain the rivers now?
The truth that we'd all heard
Displaced by the absurd
What’s left when novelty runs out?
Who’s panicked and unclean?
Who’s marked by ghosts unseen?
What we want and what we need
Used to be two separate things
But different worlds need different breeds
Who's left to drain the rivers now?
This is poison
And this is progress
But we are going nowhere
