about

balcony theme // psalm

lyrics

I am a worm and no man, soft pink flesh patterns dance
while they burn out my insides
alive, awake, every moment I'm burning up
with thoughts you'd despise, dear
they flicker and die, drift off into white senselessly
forgive me they're only my darlings I don't want them to keep

knees in the grass, an everlasting longing
and the smell of summer rain

but flowers fade, the grass it stains, all that is flesh withers away
her voice was the color of a cloud, eyes green afternoon sound
every wasted sound, every wasted sound
every wasted moment was just emptier,
to have and then forget later--to hold until she's bored,
I hope there's someone else to get her to the party,
leave and follow fleeting things I could not borrow--
tiny starlight diamonds lost till evening finds them falling down

tonight I want to become part
to numb so well
