This is your life And you were right I'm unkempt and uptight You're in my dreams It's all I see Swallow me entirely It took a city and a highway to change your mind And I don't need you and you don't need me and that's fine But between us, there is something that I like Mirrored writing on our own two walls tonight You close that door And I will fall backwards into your palm It's like you said We were never meant Love lost buried in cement It took a city and a highway to change your mind And I don't need you and you don't need me and that's fine But between us there is something that I like Mirrored writing on our own two walls tonight

Hold onto what is real It's lifeless The shape has yet to come In sequence Walk my way again I need it You're in my head again I despise it Step outside The city life The season's change And I'm to blame Standing on the precipice I'm blinded A mirage of everyone In silence Follow me if you will The abstraction Follow me inwards The subtraction Step outside The city life The season's change And I'm to blame Orchard Are you there? My figure It is unclear Orchard Are you there? My figure It is unclear Left out in the cold again Swallowed by the infinite Clear the conscience with a knife Let it be, it doesn't feel right Take it or leave it And begin again Collapse and Conform This is our end Golden orchard gone again Golden orchard gone again

Ponte Vedra 04:05
The fabric fell from me, I couldn't feel a thing It's satin to the touch, I always spoke too much What is in the family tree I swear that this isn't me The burden of my own name Am I the one that's to blame? I don't see myself in him Were not the same Far from here Look in the mirror Just let it shatter Tear the chandelier to bits, your growing out of it The crescent in your hand, it shines delicate What is in the family tree I swear that this isn't me The burden of my own name Am I the one that’s blame? I don't see myself in him Were not the same Far from here Look in the mirror Just let it shatter Dream with me for a while Visions of Talavera tile Mosaic and monochrome Two shadows on Vilano Long ago we felt the tide Misshapen and miss-aligned A modern house on the Ponte Vedra front You told me to let go of what I want

Linville 03:21
The streetlights burnt into our skin A sense of hopelessness was with you then Your silhouette was so pristine Our bodies blur into the night with ease Passed the park by autumn wood This is a place that I know well, its where we stood Underneath an orange glow It's funny how you were there, and I let you go Throw away this innocence I lost us in a sense The coming of the night Tell me please that I'm fine Hands don't they do a dance A waltz at their best Cautiously unkind Tell me please your still mine Sunken out of place again My body it missteps A machine bound to work What did you deserve? I've been here before Calling it quits at 24 Call me up when you're in town I'm sure these streets will be around

Suprematic 04:18
Is there color in That which Does surround me Suprematism A line that grows profoundly Let us try to compose An image of a throne Idealist unknown I do as I am told Lead me into forever I’m sure that I’ll be fine A solitary shiver It makes me come alive Is there color in That which Does surround me Suprematism A line that grows profoundly Let us come to terms The figure thats in view Simplistic in its form Extravagantly new A subtle conversation Of what we stare into The canvas always beckons Does it mean the same to you? I felt it all Far a second It made its mark And it's now it's leaving Job Golden kerosene Burn all the meaning Pull the thread I’ll be the seam Golden kerosene Late antiquity Lost and found Transparencies Golden kerosene Ageless scenery Let it fade And let it breath
7.
It's in the shadows And it's in the ether It's in the concrete And it is beneath you It will consume And will erase All meaning It will define Denial and Now you’re screaming We were many moons Illustrious wound Choked on redundancy You are all I need It's in the garden A fruit so demeaning It's in the weight And without any reason It was without intent You didn't mean it A mirror made by you For me to change in We were many moons Illustrious wound Choked on redundancy You are all I need

Opaque 04:00
Did it come from a golden cup The separation wasn’t enough Enter if you must Caught a glimpse of the future past Our initials carved into glass It shatters as they laugh Enter into uniformity The absence of you Is lasting an eternity Did it pass through the emptiness It's colder since you left The body begs for it Ceremonial at best It's an obsession I can't quit My intuition it has split Enter into uniformity The absence of you Is lasting an eternity
9.
Pure Was the air that night Well Its a loaded statement In the way you say goodnight Put me on a pedestal now It doesn't take that much to bring me down I’ll live in you and be brand new Sparkle with a golden sheen of Kelly green and mixed conformity I'll be the king of disbelief Time It will self destruct I'm starting to think that this is Easier said than done It's in the nature of your posture There's not a single feeling there for me My insecurity is all you see Paint me into one of your portraits I'll be the subject of humility One stroke at a time, this is my life And in that room surrounded by The patterns of our past life The colors fade their natural hues I close my eyes I’m losing you I can remember the texture Of a cashmere sweater around me Against my cheek I felt complete On the cascading mountains of Blue Ridge and Appalachia we Finally felt like we were complete
