about
When yer gone, it's easy to feel too far gone. But yer not. Take the time and come back hungry for the world. There is light!
lyrics
If I wet my skin this month then I’ll need some more to eat
my body would surely recognise that I've been hoarding groceries
put me in your water and I’ll cry like it’s springtime
I decease in varying degrees
Isn't it wholesome
to sit, and read, and shiver
like a girl in the night,
with her lamp in dull fade?
If I brush my hair this week then I ought to pay rent...
but reasoning is piled high, same as my afternoon was spent
too much time wondering in childlike comparison-
I decease in varying degrees
It's no wonder
that you want to let go.
just the other day I was punch-drunk sitting on the airliner waiting for my brother - he made it.
Now we're both undiagnosed, I’m unclassified, undignified-
Well, I’ve got my reasons
If I see to all these things, is that what life’s about?
a smattering of daily tasks and waiting till my teeth fall out?
I’m sorry I’m unsatisfied beyond my reasons
I decease in varying degrees
but I could speed them…
I could live and write and teach them-
but I won’t, I’m just a girl in the night with her lamp in dull fade.
just the other day I was punch-drunk sitting on the airliner waiting for my brother - he made it.
Now I'm undiagnosed, I’m unclassified, undignified-
Well, I’ve got my reasons!
