Misinterpretive clues No mystery machine yeah I know you Outside looks inside and laughs Prances and takes glances fast You’ve got your eye on me Won’t change the way I see Can’t shake one’s liberties Pretense that nothing is tense Not for me for you you see do I make sense No condescension here Disinterest that’s all no fear I’ve got my eye on you I’m quite good lookin’ too Can’t shake one’s liberties

Slow Dance 06:02
Segmented hemispheres and cheers to the good times I’m too busy watching to give it a try Let the music be your guide While we’re dancing down strange halls Every now and then I feel it calling Like adolescent school dance snack table stalling Let the music be your guide While we’re dancing down strange halls And you can put your hands and feet where you like As the beat slows to a crawl I don’t know what to do with your directness Your walk to me is straight and free and I hear it tap the rhythm so clearly Let the music be your guide While we’re dancing down strange halls And you can put you hands and feet where you like As the beat slows to a crawl

Come on Back 05:47
When the house is quiet/ Sometimes I sit out/ no doors creak/ or cabinets open No lights flicker/ In the other room/ on nights like these/ I think of you How strange/ This all would seem/ some pining/ apocryphal dream And the hairs on my neck/ are lying flat/ and my skin is/ uncomfortably still Come on back, ghost/ I miss your wails/ now that your atoms have spread to all things Come on back, ghost / I miss your wails/ now that your atoms have spread When we heard the news/ We let chinese lanterns loose They floated westward with the breeze/ Over the river and trees Now when I sleep/ my head is empty/ of window scratching and groaning pipe dreams And now I’m the one haunting this house/ and pleading Come on back, ghost/ I miss your wails/ now that your atoms have spread to all things Come on back, ghost/ I miss your wails/ now that atoms have spread Oh please give me the key/ open the door and let me see

Devour and record/ typographies/ inch outwards with your/ toes and fingers Unite your eyes to find/ the boundary/ shrubs planted on the property line Fine by me I followed the hill/ behind my house And found a field unused/ and returning to a meadow Sun out for a moment/ bright and blue Curling your lips between/ stubby hemlocks Relics forced down/ like sand and bone A baseball in the ravine/ stadium overgrown You cannot doubt the/ blue mountains constant Constantly walking

Lake Jam #3 05:24
Crossed my path with a four leaf Pondered it's symbolism I wasn't sure what it meant to me Maybe it's not what I thought it'd be Counted numbers all day long Wondered what they were saying I was sure they were singing a song But the Universe might be wrong Hate to be pessimistic But guess I'll find out Till then: Talk (all day/under the sun) about us casually (but) Walk (all night/under the moon) along the dewy grass (blades) Think (inside/under the earth) about us anyway (then) Obeyed the signs along the road Thought of what they see I wasn't sure if they had me sold Perhaps they meant to forebode Sat around hearing myself speak Sought to figure out why I was sure: no reason to be weak But maybe it's another that you seek Wish I'm not pessimistic But guess I'll find out Till then: Talk (all day/under the sun) about us casually (but) Walk (all night/under the moon) along the dewy grass (blades) Think (inside/under the earth) about us anyway (then)

Colossals 05:07
Geese fly outside my window It’s a friends funeral and I’ve just come home How visceral scent can be One breath and I’m wading through that old scene Take me back to a time/ when I felt nice and comfortably kind The landfill looks a little bit higher Stacking trash on trash/ empty words and faint smiles It’s different in the ways you don’t think Familiar places but unfamiliar things It seems colossal when it stands at your feet But you’re no apostle so you lie through your teeth And it seems colossal when it looms above me But I’m no apostle so I’m quick on my feet Take me back to a time/ when friends felt like family/ and a place felt like mine

Irma 07:57
I am driving through/ a land of pestilence And I roll my windows up It’s too late/ we’ve gone too far The signs read “BUY LIMITED TIME” We have no more time Shush/ we have to whisper They might hear us this far from the interstate/ oh god
