Fire Season

You lay it all across your bed
you try to find the pattern in
the how’s and why’s and carelessness
of all the times you had to get
out of there fast
I can stubbornly stare you down for days
and kick your ass at emotional charades
but I can’t help but pray
that when we see those flames
you’ll look at me and
we won’t hesitate
to get out of here fast
It’s the season of the white lie
it’s the season of shame
it’s that kind of year you’re holding onto your pain
you say what am I doing
just waiting for the day
when the pain looks around and says man it’s either you or it’s me
that’s gotta get out of here fast
Yeah but it’s a part of my story
it’s a part of my home
it’s the smell of my middle school boyfriend’s cologne
and the sun still sets calmly
people still fall asleep with our bags at the door
and our socks on our feet
because we’re getting out of here fast
Yeah maybe there’s something wrong with my heart
or it’s too much caffeine
it’s the time it takes to vanish and the water you don’t drink
‘cause I spiraled out this morning
I’ve been spiraling ever since
it’s a flowers on fire feeling
and knowing I might not get
out of here fast

Less Regret
02:28

Please let it be ok let this fall away
and reveal some new kind of day
we would never know
let us still grow old
and fall in love
and in awe
‘Cause I feel all this passing time
makes me hard to find
‘cause how do we make a plan
a dream a life that seems
ok pretty good not bad
at least we have
something to remember something up ahead
something to hold onto
maybe live with less regret

I Was Just Your Evening

I was just your evening
I was just a glass of water
I was something to believe in
like a ghost or holy father
you know it’s weird but I nearly forgot my middle name
when I entered the room like I was getting up on stage
singing the chorus on repeat
‘cause I just loved the way you looked at me
Nobody warns you there’s no patterns or predictions
you were just another storm who refuses to listen
to the verse at the end we pretend to understand
until you hear it again and all of sudden you’re so broken
‘cause it rips you apart and it shakes you awake
some of us want to feel it while the rest of us escape
Everyone’s so sorry about your dad and all your stories
about the hand you keep on playing and the lives they get away with
but I knew as a kid that I wasn’t going to let it
be a ghost or a scar that deemed my heart forbidden
and i wish that for you I hope somebody breaks through
for the day you don’t believe yourself
for the night you just need someone else
to see you

Dress Rehearsal

Dress Rehearsal
This ain’t no dress rehearsal
if it breaks in your hands you broke it man
go ahead and try to blame the shape of water
and what it does what it does what it does to you
‘Cause i want to know how good is your soul
I wanna trust somebody better than me
so check the weather and check your schedule
and let me know who you want to be
‘Cause i just can’t hold on tightly watching myself disappear
over and over so let’s be clear
Take my heart and take my weekends
and take advantage of how attracted I am to you
It’s not fair but let’s just call it even
Cheers to all the things we never got to
‘Cause I just can’t hold on
