No Saviors

i know we’re both tired and i wish i could settle down but my hands keep shaking and i don’t know how to make them stop. please don’t call me - i remember everything that you would like to forget. i don’t want to be your savior anymore. i don’t want to be your savior.
we stare in the eyes of the ghosts that circle this house. they sing songs until they’re tired and i wish they’d let me sing with them. please don’t leave me - i will forget everything that you’ve ever told me. i don't want to be your savior anymore. i don't want to be your savior.

Boxer

you wore your hair down long (long enough to keep me tired, short enough to stay awake). all those things that we have in common now they seem so out of place. you have hands like a boxer that you hold tight when i’m around like those photographs you left at your parents when you packed up and moved to this college town. is this all we’re left with now?

first and foremost, i couldn’t see you but i heard you laughing. catch up with you, catch up with me, catch up, we can’t catch up with. your heavy eyes weighed down the pavement. come together/make me move. i’m too drunk to stay awake and tomorrow you leave.

This Isn't Working Out

are we here for a damn reason other than to populate these run down rental houses that we sleep in? to fill our town with photographs and trash and broken promises? to sleep through universities again? the people here all creep me out. they wear their father’s skin. they don’t resemble anything that we can count on. you woke up late. “fuck USA” you said while i made coffee and i would go back to sleep but it’s so hard for me to walk around here without thinking about anything at all. this isn’t working out. some day soon we’ll all be dead and some day this won’t hurt so bad.
life in these united states isn’t worth the mess it makes.
