california 01:36
i've been walking in the midnight hour full moon in capricorn got me like "oh my god" and I keep checking my mood ring every 45 minutes but I mistakenly threw out the piece of paper that comes with it the one that explains all the colors and the things they represent honestly I really can't tell how I'm feeling but if i knew that it would be this complicated i would have kept playing the record in my basement baby just move to california where the weather's fine i always fall in love wrong place, wrong time

perfect life 03:31
i know it's different i know i'm not behind i can't help but feel it when i see you and your life i see your perfect husband i see your perfect home i see your perfect baby i don't want to die alone doesn't everybody want somebody who knows the way they take their coffee? doesn't everybody want to know how it feels to be truly known by somebody? so give me your grief give me your ghost give me the little things they say that's what we miss the most give me your patience give me your time give me your faith i promise i will give you mine doesn't everybody want somebody who knows the way they take their coffee? doesn't everybody want to know how it feels to be truly known by somebody? let yourself believe in something anything that gets you up in the morning let yourself believe in something anything that strikes you as this important let yourself believe in something anything that keeps you going doesn't everybody want to be known? doesn't everybody want to know and be known?

gaslight 02:12

arête 01:45
i had a dream last night that you and i were hugging tight to a serrate ridge opposing sides of valley highs once occupied by alpine wind and water foundation collapsing under your constant freezing/thawing foundation collapsing under your constant freezing/thawing

capitalism 01:06
you can have your money it was never mine i'll trade you back your pennies for my precious time you can always make more money you can never make an hour the wallet, an illusion my watch it holds the power so take it, take it, take it i don't need it anymore i'd rather be a beggar than your pretty little whore
6.
you have to turn the water blue if you're meant to drink it in the way that you obscure the truth if you just can't bear to see it like how the sky becomes azure the ocean made a sapphire the illusion soon becomes the cure for our heartache and our quagmire in time we turn it to excuse for looking at the surface what's beyond or underneath we're too afraid will hurt us you have to turn the water blue if you're meant to drink it in the way that you obscure the truth if you just can't bear to see it
7.
you left me flew into the sky you made it to the indian you never said goodbye and you stayed there with the others underwater undiscovered i held you in my dreams til they told me you were seen in pieces at the bottom of the ocean "i'm sorry for your loss, i know you had a good thing going" jets to beijing they never make it home again
8.
our love it was so deep and pure we were absolutely sure that when we'd met we'd found the one our searching and our anguish done when I look at you I feel the same but i slowly watch you pull away i refuse to give up on this now i hope you'll stay true to your vow but if you change your mind try your best to be kind i won't put up a fight if you have to let me down let me down gently, tonight i'm not the girl i was before what was once ain't anymore i tried to spin it otherwise but i could see it in your eyes that we were once so evergreen but we're fading like a cherry tree no matter how i plead and pray i know that nothing gold can stay so when you change your mind try your best to be kind swear i won't put up a fight but if you have to let me down let me down gently, tonight
