Prince of Intention

It’s in the early evening hour
When the bedroom starts to slip from sight
I sit in darkness letting my eyes
Take in the mercy of the window
Have you
Been waiting so long for the sun to fall
Inside
Are you
Holding out for work that will make you feel
Full of use
My ivy hangs accusingly
In the shadow of the laptop screen
And greedy for the water I share
When I refill from the filter
Have you
Been hiding inside my wildest dreams?
That’s where I kept ya!
Oh yeah you
Beaming in my bed with the holy sheets
Make me wild
Cuz when I catch this look
In the mirror
Can’t help but see a way to live
And though I’ve been meaning
To water them all
There’s a replacement life
Deep in soil
I’ll give you light so you’ll grow on me too
Deep in the pool with our greatest features
Have you been waiting inside my wildest dreams?
That’s where I kept ya!
Oh have you
Been waiting so long for the sun to fall
Inside
Oh yeah you
Smoke me out of caves I hide in
Make me climb
Oh yeah you
Beaming in my bed with the holy sheets
Make me wild

Boyfriend's Car

In the back of
Your boyfriend’s car
You ask me to hold your breath
On the window I draw it
Till we can’t see the exits
It's just the two of us
Make most of me gone
In the back of
Your boyfriend’s car
Our skin peels off the vinyl
Repeating song
One disc in the changer
Grinding it down
In the back of
You, just like you asked
The mirror shows each pore
Behind my face, a steely frame
We phased out for ages
Before the two of us
Would remain inside me
In the back of
Your boyfriend’s car
You ask me to hold your breath
On the window I draw it
Till we can’t see the exits
It's just the two of us
Make most of me gone

Lost my mind
I don't know why
I can't be blinded yet
I don't know why
Lost my drive
Its information
Through a portal on my desk
That was my time
Took my time
Everybody told me you should make your money work
And I ignored them
I had a vision
Until you told me
When it’s the date of the show
Just simply act like you know
It’s okay to be admired
And while you’re sharing your screen
You must pretend like you have seen
The confidence of a paycheck
Cuz I killed some time
In a meeting room
Where I micro-slept and sang
The psalm of weekend
Brace myself!
On my standing desk
To embrace the beacon
When will I be found out
Will I be found out?
This is the date of the show
Just simply act like you know
It’s okay to be admired
And while you’re sharing your screen
You must pretend like you have seen
The confidence of a paycheck
With every click comes a price
You could go visit their eyes
It’s okay to be admired
But I will not once be stained
By any gaze or compliment
Except the truth of a paycheck

And when the sadness goes away
There’ll never be another one to take its place
On the day Dad taught you how to swim
He tied on anchors ‘round your ankles with a tale
“Hold in the pressure, make that sale”
When the roads are flushed by the sea
(When the roads are flushed by the sea)
I don’t ever wanna pretend (ya ya ya)
Anymore
That I don’t feel this way (I don’t feel this way)
When our bones sink in
Interred with the shale and blue jeans
(When the roads are flushed by the sea)
I’ll still feel so light in your arms
And when the sadness goes away
There’ll never be another one to take its place
You cornered me on your way up
Your pressure passes down through me to pneumatic brakes
When the roads are flushed by the sea
(When the roads are flushed by the sea)
I don’t ever wanna pretend (ya ya ya)
Anymore
That I don’t feel this way (I don’t feel this way)
When our bones sink in
Interred with the shale and blue jeans
(When the roads are flushed by the sea)
I’ll still feel so light in your arms
When the roads are flushed by the sea
(When the roads are flushed by the sea)
I don’t ever wanna pretend (ya ya ya)
Anymore
That I don’t feel this way (I don’t feel this way)
When our bones sink in
Interred with the shale and blue jeans
I’ll still feel so light in your arms
(When the roads are flushed by the sea)

It takes some time
For us to know
The extent of the damage
How am I supposed to be
Responsible?
It takes some time
For us to know
The extent of the damage
How have I been pouring rain
When I can't keep the pieces in hand?
I felt it once
I felt it once
I felt it once and never again
It takes some time
For us to know
The extent of the damage

Life without losing
Life without losing anything
Is not the life I could live
Without losing my mind
I won’t take curry for any kid to see at lunch
Then I’ll be fine
Assimilation is the way I found
Chameleonic is how I sound
It’s time to lose it: I found my own voice now
You’ve got to meet the body
You’ve got to meet the body
I hope I write this song before too late
Cuz there’s a note that I want us to take—
I’ll hold my mouth open for you to shout opinions
Rest your head upon my chest and then I’ll feel safe
Tell me why
Tell me why I’ve got to
Make up a past time
Give my worth a place
So one day I’ll understand
When you say “hometown”, it’s
This brown and bearded face
For pigs to mistake
I’ve got a number
Who’s gonna take it?
I’ve gotta fly soon
I’ve got a suitcase
For me to board the plane
I must unfurl the borders in me
I’ve got a monster
I’ve got a secret
I’m pretty sure I’ll have to leave
If I’m not smiling
I stole the right voice
I’ve got a stage name
He’s going to remind me
He’s going to remind me
He’s compromised me
We’re compromised
My dad begs me to shave
So pigs won’t mistake
I’ve got a number
Do you wanna see it
I’ve gotta fly soon
I’ll drop my suitcase
For us to overcome
We’ve gotta seize the means of coping
I’ve got a monster
I’ve got a secret
I’m pretty sure I’ll have to leave
If I don't work for free
I stole the right voice

Whether I live by the things I say
Or what I exhale to keep you here breathing the air with me
You fell beneath
Why won’t you speak?
Please say something
Bobby, please
I know that you wanted to die and I got in the way
Though I wasn’t there to keep you company
I could tell you never got to sleep so well
Holding hands from cars and planes
I spill the words
They aren't enough
Battery dies
You know how to love and tried to pass it down but I don’t know
And I must be dreaming life without you
When I wake up sinking into the sheets
A budding iris starving for the sun’s light
I could only point the mirror so long
A century of satellites
Phone towers and transatlantic wires
And you just wanted to dim the light
Breathe in the perfume of the choking smoke
Whether I live by the things I say
Or what I exhale to keep you here breathing the air with me
You fell beneath
Why won’t you speak?
Please say something
Bobby, please
I know that you wanted to die and I got in the way
Though I wasn’t there to keep you company
I could tell you never got to sleep so well
Holding hands from cars and planes
I spill the words
They aren't enough
Battery dies
You know how to love and tried to pass it down but I don’t know
