breathe.vol 04:32
turn to one side and let yourself go in my arms sown tight hands turn way too slow they did this to you why do this to me a muscle flinches a lover cuts itself free breathe stop breathing breathe anti-native life where nothing comes for free palm trees lie your reflections look like me we tried this too soon genetics trap, laid mines breathe stop breathing breathe hold me down you’ll see it comes out of my hands out of my hands it stings head down highways tonight fall down stay with me now that i’m clean now we can breathe

no way out 06:05
a puzzle on the floor a life now in pieces questions outside door a mistake leaves a scar a life stained with memories tears this heart apart can you please find me? no way out can you please fix me? no way out can you please save me? no way out then can you please sing to me a last lullaby? all day asleep swallowing thorns a heart that’s in too deep these whispers have echoed into a pulsating white noise giving life to the shadows can you please find me? now way out can you please fix me? no way out can you please save me? no way out then can you please sing to me a last lullaby?

i have no memory i am forgetting this conversation as we are having it it’s not that i don’t care about what you are saying i am desperately hanging on your every word i am watching your lips and tongue as you speak i am absorbing your breath i adore you but any minute now you will stand up and make your exit the flowing grey streaks in your hair the fading sent of vanilla that remains as you leave i have no memory but this dull aching knot in my stomach the shape of your eyes and soft curve of your nose leaving me slowly i have no memory i of course do not remember when it left me or why was there an argument did i get drunk and say something i didn’t mean did it choose to stay in one of the warmer climates where i had once lived i have no memory of not being this alone it was my mistake summer went away it was my mistake it was my mistake summer puzzle breaks it was my mistake i have no memory it’s not clear that i have an historical basis for being here i feel like a tourist observing the machines and emotions human connections someone goes into surgery they give you coffee someone dies and they offer you a cheese plate someone hold my hand as we watch you go it was my mistake summer went away it was my mistake it was my mistake summer puzzle breaks it was my mistake
