Coming Home to You On a Cold Day
dreaming of sailboats and tea,
a little place near the sea.
we'll ride our bicycles
and it will always be a little to cold without a sweater.
i'll write and you'll write in our different corners
come together and eat toast with butter
stew in the fall and sandwiches in the summer
with sand in them
holding hands and walking
resting against tall trees years older than we will become
we'll be poor but happy
we'll miss the sunsets here but watch the billowing smoke from ships at night
fires and bourbon at night
secret hiding holes
and walking alone rolling hills
its cold out

the killing in me is the killer in you
i lose a little more skin i grow a little older
i smoke a little more
i drink a little more
sometimes it feels to right to be melancholy
i found an old video
you told me you were crazy about me
and all i can think about is that soon even if you wanted to come see me you couldn't
i waiting for you the way you waited for me
everything i am i wrapped up in smoke and mirrors
even if i showed you how awful i was you wouldn't listen you wouldn't see

From No Surprises to Flyin' on Your Motorcycle
radio head doesn't write love songs, but they all sound like love songs to me
i fear the sun coming up and me with it
i know it will pass but right now i have nothing to live for
i know you all told me so
i wonder what form of torture i should take on myself
what new scar i want
then i twist my ankle and remember how stupid pain is
i'm surrounding myself in it
my computer likes to over heat
you've gone back up into the clouds
and i'm going to have to learn to be alone with myself
why do i have to hate myself so much
who pre decided this and didn't clue me in?
i have so many blogs i don't know what to do with myself
i've made a ruin of the life i had
thought i wanted freedom
will you ever forgive me?
will i ever forgive myself?
you want me to apologize for something that isn't. . .
sex and love just don't mix in my world
you'll never understand that
so i'm sorry i hurt you
the crush has subsided
and all i think about september orange moons
and our breath on each others lips
you gave me a millions chances and i squandered all of them
but the leaves with fall and i'll drift down the river
hoping to be reborn in the ice of your heart
i wonder what's wrong with Thom Yorke's eye
Imogen Heap on the radio makes me cry
and i look out on myself
sitting on that balcony smoking
looking up at the stars
so far away from here
dressed in white and laughing at my self now
dinner parties and wine
and i'll want to be back here
why am i so broken god?
what did i do to deserve this
silence
i could throw everything away
i like acoustic music, what's up with that?
constellation prize
there's love there, it's just young and shy
and it's what i need but not what i want
i don't care if it hurts
i wanna have control
the sea laps over our legs as you hold me tight
i'll never forget how cold my feet were
something was racing thro our minds that night
what? maybe i'll never know
maybe we're meant to be on and off again
but then, i've ruined everything for now
it's fall outside my window
ever motorcycle i hear is you, every passing car beyond the gate
soon you'll be gone,
there's something i forgot to tell you
when i said i thought maybe we'd go and i'd stay and then we'd part ways
remember that?
that hasn't been true in a long time
i thought that this would come will relief sometimes
but maybe everyone knows me better than myself
Oh it's the best thing that you've ever had
The best thing that you've ever, ever had
It's the best thing that you've ever had
The best thing you've had has gone away
