From the cold of your rocky home, take a dive into a new blue space. Feel the rain and find the calm deep in your face. The tidal wave is around you. Flip your tail find a boat to hang on to. Flip your tail find a boat to hang on to. Are you still afloat? And and are we still on to escape? We still lie awake in the still of the avenue We wait by your church We're faded, fucked, we're cured. And are we still on? Colder and hotter currents will flow Sideways eyes and a goldfish brain don't know which way to go still the water still the water still the water Still the water goes. I wait out by the sand laid out with a cigarette The water hums my name with the weight of all. The weight of all unsaid (X3) The weight of all

Lavender dreams they keep me asleep when we arrive in beige and gold. I slept in her forest the sun burns through the pores of the canopy. The train runs east to west on the seaboard shores they've come to rest in your tiny pores. In lavender dreams they all sing. The highway is alone unless we sleep tonight. I wave goodbye, I re-define the light. My eyes breathe wide from shade to bright I was far from your roots but deep in your outstretched shade. Another open road The sun was burning gold when the seeds blew off their leaves and all the way across this amber sky.

Wesley Gene 04:21
Another day breaks she walks in the moonlight Learns from the shadows, speaks to spirits in the air we breathe. The golden leaf pastures of gallery masters they're losing their light They're losing their minds. So she's slipping out and worn away and she's all up to you. You're tired of thinking like a stone's breaking and she, she's gone. Don't get attached to the wound. Driving in your car, you turn off the radio and you stop to talk about it I'm wondering where your crown has gone but you've buried, you've buried, You've buried it. So she's slipping out and worn away And she's all up to you. You're tired of thinking like a stone's breaking and she, she's gone. Don't get attached to the wound.

The snow keeps falling and everyone in the hotel is quiet. If we just keep waiting The sun will melt the snow to an ocean. We'll sail along a pearl dress draped in all our good luck. All this fleeting is permanent in a bored, curious universe. So we wait inside for its sun to rise. The strangers' faces fade to old friends and tireless hands of teenage omniscience And all your old plans to share oblivion one last time. The sun seeps in, and you dance to the radio. And all your weary friends have come to rest. The mountains wade along A fountain makes a moat around you and this kingdom built upon an isle. A waterfall awaits you. You fought the current far too long and far is not enough for youth.
