just ignore our splitting bed
i’ll come and find you
turning into my dream again
when the galaxy is in pain
it’s me, picking up the
glass and
i put my hand back in your hand
pick it up, pick it up
we’re not natural
i’m heading into your wave
i’m the hero in your heart
and when you take my name
i eat your name and the sun
i told myself we should kiss
unbuttoned in the shower,
volcanic, or we’re just having fun
when the lava cracks, it’s me
picking up, picking up the
glass and
i put my hand back in your hand
kiss again, kiss again
i’m seasick
i’m heading into your wave
i’m the hero in your heart
and when you take her name
i eat your name and the sun

you know i tried to hide
the password in my mouth
spilling out the sides
under spilling sun
but no one’s picking up
“are you running from
are you running from yourself?”
i thought i was being nice
seashell in a wave
a star with no mother in sight —
im her daughter
and i left her there
i left myself there
it’s funny that you say
im pretty when i cry
i feel ready, go online
kill every everything
naked every time
“are you running from
are you running from yourself?”
the grapevine grows to hell
the memory unwinds
then i was a balanced knife
you were buried with me
and i left you there
i left myself there
my paper cut tragedy
still bleeding down my leg
that’s not what i wanted
im so sick of wanting
that’s not what i was saying
i’m so sick of talking

Raspberry knees

you didn’t know
you dragged it out
you changed your mind
giving back what you’ve won
getting caught again on the ice
i like it more in between your teeth
and the bottom lip you stick out at me
you slept through death
you’re out of it
giving back what you’ve won
anticipating tears in your tights
i like it more when you’re so sweet
raspberry in between my knees
mirror image of a bumble bee
mumble something true to me

Rose cage

it's not mine
it slipped under the door
and found a new home inside
i held it close
without gloves on
how breath breaks the glass
to save me
from hating you
i didn’t want to go out like this
sleeping through movies on a saturday
so i could dream
where girls cant die
they just
hurt
it’s getting up
and it’s itching my eyes
i’ve learned to love
my fragile beast, its pride
i spit on my hands
i put all of myself into the rose cage
i didn’t want to go out like this
sleeping through movies on a saturday
so i could dream
where girls cant die
they just
hurt
i cant remember any of your reasons then
before the earth was rotten and torched, overgrown
i let go of my watering can
and you reached in to pull out your prize

i’m waiting all alone
for the train that doesn’t come—
it gets too shy
heaven light binds you
to my bad thoughts
when i see you swimming out,
i fall into a star,
and hide this miracle
i might glow your way,
but i’m lost behind you
raining down from a cloud
at home, you drink
boiling black tea around me
with your faith relaxed,
i snap the curtains closed
this is what you chose to be,
stuck inside my jeans
heaven light binds you
to my bad thoughts
heaven light binds you
to the earthworm
when i see you swimming out,
i fall into a star,
and hide this miracle
i might glow your way,
but i’m lost behind you
raining down from a cloud

sounds like the sun moving out from behind a cloud—understated, but big. important. the fuzz on the phone when your friend doesn't know what to say.

flashlight on a dirty mirror. plastic alligators and toy horses dirty at the bottom of your junk drawer. reminds me of staying inside on a hot day with the window closed and still being too warm
