A List of Sound

took the ride up
to the well for the town
I had to see the view of the green
lighting the fire
to the words in the way
I could hear you breathe
I could see you see
we want to make up a list of sound
the repetition
we will not turn down
we put our backs down
to the tall grass turned gray
it helps to breathe
it helped to see
we want to make up a list of sound
the repetition
we will not turn down
from the gas station we stole
the idea there’s nothing to know
but it’s the open tract of land
it’s the hardest part for you to understand
I could run home in the night
without signs or streets or light
to the door where you stood still
I could see the spaces in the woods we filled
below us was time
and it won’t go away
I want to see and I want to breathe

Night's End

the window’s down
your hair whipped my face
adjust the sound
those cigarettes
will kill you someday
not today
to reach the river before dark
the only thought was how fast you got in
the night’s end
running on the rocks
I’d slip but not care
somehow were soft
there’s enough here
no one has to worry
the coast is clear
lighting fires
your eyes rolled back
the day seems like it’s too much to pretend
the night’s end
nothing beyond the river bend
passed out in fields
the morning light will mend you
the night’s end

Measure 4

those sailors came again tonight
they measured everything in sight
they took the last peace of my mind
I’m fading back into the sea
you won’t even hear me breathe
it takes a step and then it dies
every time you want a story
I come off so drunk and boring
we’ve wasted the idea of the sun
you ought to catch the light and run
you have to blame someone
those sailors came again tonight
they measured everything in sight
they took the last peace of my mind
every time you want a story
I come off so drunk and boring
and a promise you to tell the truth
I promise you to tell the truth
