Balloon

Come home soon
My head is a balloon
And it goes up up
Hits the surface of my cup
Hold my clavicle up
The astroid breaking apart
In my front yard
It was over by June
I thought I was immune
But the clockwork caught
It wasn't how I thought
Hold my clavicle up
The astroid triangulates
On the hood of my car
I've been drinking all night long
I've been drinking all night
Don't wanna tell you bout what I did wrong
come home soon
i am drinking from a spoon
and the breakfront's shot
i am older than i thought
hold my clavicle taut
The astroid shadows a tree
On the living room floor
I've been drinking all night long
I've been drinking all night
Don't wanna tell you bout what I did wrong

It Was Mine

The street is lit alone
By a single bulb hanging from a wire
The town that we all know
It's still out there
It's still on fire
We'll never go home
There was once a light inside
Someone's eye
Eye
It was bright, it shone a time
I swear I saw it, it was mine
Not all had this luck
Not all swam enough away from the ship
Some are still below
With the wreckage
Do they know
Do they know where they are?
There was once a light inside
Someone's eye
Eye
It was bright, it shone a time
I swear I saw it, it was mine

Sea Anemones

I dressed up like a bird but I was a whale
in the courtyard
trying so hard
to learn the game
Sea anemones make their enemies
in the courtyard
trying so hard
in your name
And it takes some time it takes some time
to find you
in the living room
you are waiting till dawn
already gone
See the little one
see her walking home in the moonlight
by the sunlight
she is grown
Look into her face look into the dark
it is shining
all the shimmer
of the great unknown
And it took some time it took some time
to find her
under claw and fur
she was waiting for me
she was finding her keys
Birds live on the sill
Men will drink their fill
Women never stay
The moon will have her say
And I won't run away.
