Sunlight through the trees, coming through the window with a breeze Blood in the sink, I can hear you empty yourself to disease From the bedroom, was that real? You said don't listen You never wanted me to feel the fever weighing on your shoulders, but I did It was mine too Flushed out to the bay - the rocky shore, the kelp, the floor receive your...Learn More

In my dream, I was a wasp inside your attic I'd always leave but then I'd come back out of habit To stay in place, and buzz around the drywall To see your face - I just wanted to feel small Could you hear me chewing out the insulation? Always trying to find some cohabitation To build a home and greet you every morning I felt alone, I woke up with...Learn More

I dreamt of one more summer and wake in a sweat with snow in my bed The things I can't let go of shake out of my head like sand in the tent Sleeping on the beach in Oregon when the world was so enormous And we swam in it, it was ours The calamity wasn't far but we were safe then I dreamt I was a statue frozen in bronze, outstretching rusted...Learn More

So in time it grows: the absence I don't want to know, but I know The feeling of my skin on snow, the cold seeps in On a different plane maybe we would never know this pain Maybe we would have been born the same age Maybe this is just the way you show me nothing goes away I've been feeling well, but then I feel so bad again, then it quells Then...Learn More

Another storm rolls in, it's getting under my skin It reminds me that your trail is incomplete Is this the same wind that blew you off the mountain Back when every time you landed on your feet? And were you in the meadow when I couldn’t help but cry? Everything I see I wish I saw it through your eyes The eyes that filled with love and then with...Learn More

When your beard fell out, coloring the bathroom sink in doubt I told you you could rock a mustache Well I lied, but you tried it anyway When your hair turned white overnight, it looked just like the moonlight I didn't tell you that it was a sign Of the color we were soon to lose Is it raining? Did I dream that too? Is it fading? I don't want it...Learn More

I saw it as a window, I saw it in a frame Rephrased as something different Abstracting my worst pain But I lost it in the rain It got carried away I will lay down in the maze It will find me every day I was hoping for a portal Thought I could write my way back to you Reinvent you as immortal But my voice wavered out of tune And I lost it in the...Learn More

Eddie I know, it's hard to let go of an echo My hand on the stove, your face on my phone: a memento And that's all that I have left An idea, a memory compressed But you were life sized, and you had brown eyes, I won't forget Mom, is it real? Now the dust of his bones in a jar in my home won't reveal anything And that's all that I have left A love,...Learn More

Something goes away Words I couldn't say Something I won't find Something I have lost to the tide When I look for you Like an heirloom scar Words don't get me very far I've surpassed the bend Pleading to my pillow again When I look for you...Learn More

[Verse] Sunlight obscured It's morning, I'm gasping at words Today is full of birds Their songs in my head I'm drawn to the edge of your bed, the stitches in your head Picture you there I'm washing the blood from your hair, I'm crying in the stairwell [Chorus] You fold out of corpse pose, you rise again I open the window, I can't hold you...Learn More

When I picture you now, as a stone holding warmth in your mouth Where erosion is shaping the Sound I will find you, and I will lay my burden down When I picture your hair, I draw a map of the alkaline air Say your name like a bathroom stall prayer I will find you, sitting in your favorite chair Maybe this is the last song, or maybe it's not Maybe...Learn More

When we first met you seemed embedded in my brain I thought I finally found the antonym of pain And you showed me the light inside I felt broken. then I felt alive I fell into you like the snow upon the roof I knew that I could love and you offered me the proof And I loved you and I always will And you loved me, I can feel it still The summer...Learn More
