Time will mend
A heavy heart
But the darkest hours
Linger
Your hair
Blink
Behind your ears
Blink
Your arms
Blink
With hands held wide
I could just live in there.
Let’s just stop right there.
what we’ve created , can be erased
What we’ve loved, can be replaced
All our mistakes.

It was warm to the touch
Cold to the feel
Started raining too much
and flooded the fields
All the fictions of earth
All became real
Burnt little leaves
with waterlogged yields
It was warm to the touch
so cold to the feel
Saw my life flash before my eyes
On old reel-to-reels
All the fictions of earth
All became real
I couldn't get home
By clicking my heels
If there was no ceremony
What of it now?
What of it then?
When the rooster cries out
What of all the hens?
You came up for air
ended up with the bends
I came out for air
And came back to no friends
If there was no ceremony
There was no ceremony

Beneath the earth
Are rocks and dirt
Fire and water
Glory and shame.
Above the sky
It’s black and white
We see each other
From a dying light
To the east and west
The land begins
Our paths will cross
(Where) our lives will end.
What I was once
I am no longer.
My spirit is gone
I let it wander.
I am not coming back
I will not live forever.
It’s up to you now,
I’m for you to remember.

My first kiss
Was in my friend's basement.
Wooden walls, and cracked wet cement.
There were other kids dancing,
No, they left.
His parents were calling
On the intercom
Above the music.
I think it was Keith Sweat.
Or maybe Ralph Tresvant.
They said, your parents are here to pick you up.
But what I heard was
“kiss her, hurry up”
My bike was behind the house.
Just under the bush
With those little red poison berries
You’d like to squush,
I rode home
Lighting cattails
Along the railroad.
Slept on my bed
Still in my school clothes
It was just like that night
My mother sat in my kitchen and cried.
6 months before she died
Now i imagine every plane
will fall from the sky
Ever car that drives by
will have its wheels on fire
Ah, Patterns in her eyes
Like lines on the carpet
I know she loved me,
But I'm not sure I deserved it.
You don’t have to go anywhere
Just hold me, hold me right here
