liquid heart

I wanna be what you want me to
I wanna be what you like
Someone to call when you’re feeling blue
You don’t need to call every night
You’ve got a lot that’s ahead of you
You’ve got a lot on your mind
I’ve got a lot that I wanna do
Places to go, things to find
To find, define
Count down the days, what they’re leading to
To celebrate a restart
It’s time to feel like yourself again
Pretend to know who you are
You are
I’m here to stay, I’m not leaving you
There may be challenging parts
Whatever shape that you need me to
Liquified state, liquid heart

Tie, Untie
04:29
|
|||
|
something fragile beats inside
pure and naked, young and wise
you awaken in disguise
space invasion
daunting and consuming, urge to untie
tie, untie, tie
crowded places, noise nights
relocation, tiny fights
taste the flavors, guess what kind
yours i savor, yours i like
tell me what it costs and let me buy time
tell me how you thought in prior lifetimes

Sometimes
03:46
|

you said you were unhappy far too many times
what could i do to change your mind?
do i hold myself responsible?
sometimes
doesn’t the grass seem greener on that side?
why don’t you go and take a bite?
won’t you give into your animal and try?
constant,
an animosity scratching at your door as you sleep
plug your ears, return to dreaming so you can ignore the roar
poor timing, poor form
youth says i could be happy
i could let it slide
allow you to love me half the time
do i fear that’s insurmountable?
sometimes
i had felt uneasy otherwise
how could you let me feel so blind?
seems you take me as an obstacle sometimes
suddenly,
animosity breaks the lock
climbs in bed with me
whispers in my ear of all the hurt i have endured before
poor timing, poor form

jealousy is a friend, she calls
you to lay in her bed and fall
something’s wrong here
somethings raw
water under the bridge, it’s cool
angry ocean now still, a pool
something’s not clear here
something's wrong
my invincible friend, adieu
float away with my red balloon
in my solitude, i am strong
are you feeling big yet?
now you have deconstructed everything
behead the dolls you use to play with
now you can take advantage of the pain
artisanal figment, as you wash away like words in the sand
my heart goes on
and on
cause i was wrong
so wrong
you stay intellectual
soothing the burns you got, calendula
rest my heart inside a human
the safety unpredictable
take your time in tranquil proving abrasions don’t hurt you too much
claim it’s peace but know it's rooted in anger cause you hate that bruise you love

Healing Me Dead
04:01
|

|
rising with the moon in symmetry
said you’re my friend and i believe in
kindness,
where are you now?
i can feel your energy
it’s healing me
open
let the inability pass
let it go then watch it come back
softness,
where are you now?
not to feel that synergy was killing me
you’re feeling me
it’s healing me
it’s healing me dead
trust in me
relax
honesty feeds back

Let Them Be Fed

walk around noticing everything
block it out, need to be used to it
am, but how?
tuning out tuning in
lost in sound
practicing, practicing
softer now, what if they’re listening?
calming down, breathe it out breathe it in
little baby, small face tiny head
time for your bed
screaming, straining, grasping for your breast1
let them be fed
let them be fed
let them be fed
let them be fed
let them be
little lady, pretty in a dress
what tears you have shed
filled the lakes, the rivers and oceans
you broke all the dams
you powerful man
such capable hands
now back where you stand
and let it be
show me something
walk around noticing everything
block it out, need to be used to it
am, but how?
tuning out tuning in

Be Gone
05:06

grew a foot taller
there is something still obstructing the view
buildings, the fossils
other people who were just passing through
there is something so familiar in you
there is something so familiar in you
these words do not belong to me
they do not belong to anyone
you can be anything you want to be
be gone
be gone
i wait for you to harness me
send me back to where i once came from
if we can’t be apart in harmony, be gone
be gone
all of the crawlers that unwrapped themselves and left the cocoon
buzz in the garden as it blossoms, pollinating what grew
always looking for the next thing to do
there is something so familiar in you
as simple as the honesty buried underneath the words you’ve sung
i heard it how you called to me
the gong
the gong
your heart does not belong to me
you do not belong to anyone
if we cannot be apart in harmony, be gone
be gone
