lyrics

i live to arrive
i live to arrive
i live to arrive - i learn in the night
trees shake they're afraid of the light
they speak to the devil
but he's just a shovel
we spoke with your mother:
only joy is promised now

i live, i learn
in swirls, dissolved
it's life, bizarre
i reach beyond, what i know
what i've seen
is when i know
i'm getting weak
when what i know is what i seek
i know that i live to learn
support, discern
i live just to arrive

American haircut
American toaster
I don’t know what to do with my hands
Now that they’re older
Monk walks past me on the street
Prepared to feed anyone he meets

I walk past the bakery where she’s texted me
I drank all the undigested grief
Call my dad to check on infected bites
Steel plates come after ice slides

show of force
the court appears
the heart it hoards
what souls conceal

literally and selectively
they take what's best of me
speak back to empire
ghostly, stuck-through
it's not a fire
if the burn is shallow too

i wish i knew how to write words again
i'm taking bad pictures of the badlands

character, capabilities
order, dysfunctionalities
her particulars are imaginary
i begin erasing
the rage so i can face reality

American haircut
American toaster
