Age is graceless (free) 02:29
lyrics
download
i'm constantly tiring and fraught with fear i'm sick of the reckoning that comes with living here and i'm tired of everything and my wounded pride i hope with the sentence in that the guilty have been tried i'm on this long road and i won't let go but why do i get so when i'm not that old
2.
Evergreens (free) 02:57
lyrics
download
the light's been growing dim i can no longer see i'd be lost if not for him but he despises me it's been so long now since i felt safe and it feels so wrong now but saving grace remains my prayer through all this wear and i've lost my faith in the aftermath it was an evening much like this that i discovered you and it wasn't much like bliss it was a squandered truth
3.
Tempe (free) 02:00
lyrics
download
the city lights the skyline in a synthetic morning step off the ride the strip's set with palms in concrete this one day room alone gives you a final second chance the shades are drawn the a/c is on you hide from the steps you've taken it's like a dream, or so it seems you're half expecting to wake up and distance seems like such a strain from the start of every day and two thousand miles away i still have so much left to say
4.
Palindrome (free) 02:12
lyrics
download
the conclusion seems like the beginning and this new day seems like it's ending the sun still seems like it's rising until the last faint rays have faded and the last brightness has gone gray and then she looks outside she sees you in her eyes and it seems like summers coming soon i turn the pages to get closer i turn this key to get away i turn my head to get a better look i turn away to hide in shame but when i finally see the truth surprises me there was really no one there
5.
Sleep (free) 03:07
lyrics
download
there's a place that i'd like to go but i don't know where it is and there's alot that i would like to know but my mind is a threadbare sieve and there's someone i would like to be if i only had the energy i've seen almost everywhere and anywhere between but i haven't really gleaned much of anything although the glass on the window has a brand new sheen i haven't really been anywhere worth mentioning everything i ever said i try to catch it in a butterfly net hoping no one ever heard a word things i'd just as soon forget and the time i tried so hard to spend until my credit finally hits the end i know i'm neurotic and crazy and tired wanting every minute to pass faster and higher and i guess we can all do anything we want to dream but all i really want now is a little more sleep
6.
Widow (free) 02:33
lyrics
download
breasts to the babies and brides to bouquets and pawn shops that peddle the life of our days this rust that refurbished the red in our veins and candles and cutlery passion and pain so decorate your life with lines and space and in between you've spliced the time it takes the reels are rolling the clouds from the west this scene is the one where they cease to protest in the face of the storm though the extras might cry the characters heads hang expecting to die and they never looked so well in times of grace it's as if they'd been in line to find this place and i had been watching the window while winter was waning and breathing on branches the snow on the beaches was turning to sand and i had been playing the widow still weaving her wicker she's waiting for summer when the nights will pass quicker and the sun on her hands
7.
Red wine (free) 03:13
lyrics
download
i've been swallowing pills and clenching my teeth i'd been given to hope that the end would be brief yeah, i thought maybe i could just die in my sleep but my fear is i won't be permitted to leave so i'm wearing this smile like a mildewed cocoon and i peel off my skin as i hide in my room i am bleeding my love into a cup on the floor a glass of red wine i won't drink anymore i'm just swallowing tea as i breathe in cigarettes and if this is life's pinnacle i'll feign contentment because i know that it will not get better than this from here to the end all i want is to rest
8.
We drank to death (free) 02:44
lyrics
download
i wrote a paragraph and it never ended then an epitaph that i couldn't finish and i wasted lines and i wasted graphite slowly killing time in the dying daylight and you came to me with an empty bottle and you broke the glass and showed me how it sparkled so we both got trashed and we watched the sunrise and we cried and laughed that we hadn't just died then i guess i slept as the morning languished all the day was theft and the night was anguish i wasted more words and so many pages then when venus rose i escaped to find you were waiting up and i rued the hours but you welcomed me and it ceased to matter and now i want to stay to love you completely and soon the sun will rise and the birds will hear me love you i love you
9.
Until morning (free) 01:42
lyrics
download
maybe the morning will bring me around to the smile of your face the aroma of sound in the air between limbs that grows ever so thin while the words spreading thickly around him and her and the love is a blanket of fur and the skin is a tactile relay pooling beings and their meanings in a way we would never have thought because night was the place where you held me in stasis and promised me wordless how precious our time is the window was wearing a glimmering glow from inside all the secrets of being alive our posession between our pressed palms and our lips in the grips of some psalm that we wrote in the smoke between breathing and drinking our love
10.
Pitted brooks (free) 03:49
lyrics
download
there's a brook at the pit of the dreams that i've had where the fruit is the youth that i spent in it's lap with my feet in the water my toes on it's tongue gurgles swiftly yet glibly as though we were young it was here that i spent all the days in between all the words i once meant to the ones i now mean all the lies that i spent on the banks of this brook and the time that i wasted becoming unstuck and i'm sure there are places that we could have gone or some final conclusions that might have been fun there might have been some battles we could have won instead of us both slowly coming undone so the fate of the amorous masochist mate is the pyre building bitch who thus pulls her own weight and the flames lick the bones like a plates surface purged where the pixies dance glad to some last happy dirge and the afternoon sun lies asleep on the floor tells a fond fairy tale where the eunuchs are whores
11.
On solomon (free) 03:58
lyrics
download
who would have thought we would be here together through all of the droughts and the inclement weather conspiring to tire us and drive us apart the sirens and succubi wade by the rocks but the lighthouse, once silent starts singing for us and that was the wave that we felt on our way that tore down the veneers and broke up the charades all the old faces and the old places and there was the youth that i killed on my own and there's the old house that you used to call home all the old ways that we can replace and there's the small town that we shared in our prime and the friends that we had in that limited time dreams we can't keep nights we can sleep anymore and who would have thought we would head off to sea together aboard this idealistic dream or that we'd still be here now alive and afloat despite constant resistance and detours with hope for the light at our bough and it's song in our throats and you're the one reason the i'm still alive and the only one i'll ever need to survive despite all the loss at whatever cost and when solomon said that the unborn were blessed then the dead were ranked second for finding their rest but we have a hope that they'll never know again
12.
You in sunlight (free) 02:34
lyrics
download
i wake up inside your eyes i wake up to find your smile i reach out half awake to find you lying here and your sleeping eyes are wide their fingers reach for mine so we both know that you missed me too and i wish i would never move i wish that the sun and you would keep me company right here and i would be your girl and you would be mine so i could be the world to you like you have been for me this whole time

Exit Interview Denver, Colorado

for many years music was my life and, although i was never very good, i was always very passionate about it. now my life has taken me elsewhere. these seven pieces i leave here to serve as the portrait of my former self. as much for me as for anyone else. let us always remember where we have been, with an eye to the ground where our feet will fall on the path ahead. ... more
