when it's the harbinger's turn to materialize
when the crashing of your darkest hour begins
I'll be waiting for you
when it's time for you to see the joy
when it's time to cry for life
I'll be waiting for you
but I'll need a little legroom on the way
I'll need a little breathing room so i can lose my stutter
and gain my confidence
when all seems lost and lights dim fast
when hearts are weak and spells are cast
I'll be waiting for you
I'll be waiting for you
I'll be waiting for you
I'll be waiting for you

I know it's a risk but I've let go of your grasp
no starlight in the musk of creeks and fog of grass
deliverances materializing, let delphinus crash tonight
it's quantifying, electrifying my steps from now on
I know I'm a fraud or a daunting fuck sometimes
I know I have lips of spikes or teeth of mud
your mussitations are no match for me
your energy will, maybe, get you somewhere
get you where you have to go
get you where you have to go
get you where you have to go
I know you'll get where you have to go
I got my love and love's welcoming me home
I've all choked up letters and paintings, kennings unknown
marauder town, get stiff on the ground
gurgles and drains
bent til I'm vivified
I'm bent til I'm vivified
bent til I'm vivified
I'm bent til I'm vivified
it's all just the same
it's all just

Cardinals

I had a note, it was all I could hum
I had a hint and I had a drum
direct my paths, floor to hand, palm to sky
no touch and no reason why, at least that I could see
and I have known
and I have sunlight
and blooming lungs
and the voice of a leader
floored myself too much
oh the piercing screens and the poignant guns
garnishing fear with a hint of preclusion
you take a drop and it, well, it descends
and I have known
and I have sunlight
and blooming lungs
and the voice of a hero
perilous fight, I jumped over a creek now
holding my own as the last of my family
they all spoke too soon
if we held each other like perigee to the earth
maybe our breaths would amass a new timeline
reddened and bright
cardinals pass, you wouldn't have spotted them
thank god I have not overheated quite yet
and I have known
and I have sown
and light and blooming lungs
and the voice of a hero

You're Going Out Tonight

and we walk down as the smoke scales a gradient
and the sunlight it burns us, coral or beige
I hope that this won't be the end
but if it is, a stunning plume could permeate our final view
and then as we walk down the airstrip
and see the planes crash not too far overhead
it was with you, my love
a precarious kiss we shared
you're going out tonight, but so am I
you're going out tonight, love of mine
you're going out tonight, and I'm not too far behind
you're going out, out, out tonight
and we kiss the cement, at least that's how it felt
and we grounded ourselves like sidewinders in sand
we touched palms like the sweat would bind us
and suddenly, we felt more real than we'd ever imagined
and then as we speed down the airstrip
and hear the planes resound like winter bells
as the righteous run, my love
and maybe we'll be saved
you're going out tonight, but so am I
you're going out tonight, love of mine
you're going out tonight, and I'm not too far behind
you're going out, out, out tonight
but if we danced like scintilla 'til the end
if we craved each other like perigee to the earth
then we won't sleep in vain
and then as we float up from the smoke
and remember our friends we once held near
if the fire of our lord fell, we won't have to join it
yeah, yeah
but then as we walk down the airstrip
and see the planes crash not too far overhead
it was with you, my love
a precarious kiss we shared
you're going out tonight, but so am I
you're going out tonight, love of mine
you're going out tonight, and I'm not too far behind
you're going out, out, out tonight

I know the story I just left you
I hope it's all that I can breathe through
and if you let me know which room in alone
I hope it's all the same
is there any way I could lead?
it'll hope we'll leave someday
I hope it leads someday
I hope it's where you go
I hope I'm there with you, that's right
I hope it's somewhere I can breathe
you left me here with no choice
and then it's all the same
I hope again one day
I'll let you in again
