Can't Relate

I can feel the sun
ready to make fools of us all in its wake
telling everyone
how you’ve been ready for something to break
like a fever you’ve been sweating out for years
like the weather that you won’t enjoy even if it clears
i can’t relate
I can feel the moon
pulling me further, then closer, then further from you
tell me what to do
it seems you’ve got it figured out and here i am without the slightest clue
Like the ocean crashing down on me in waves
you introduced yourself like there was pride in just giving out your name
i can’t relate
I can feel the earth
tapping its wrist to let me know it’s getting late
tell me what i’m worth
or am I just wasted energy until I finally meet my fate?
Like the ground that will surely swallow you and me
you keep your posture and a firm grip, like you’ve got something to prove
I can’t relate

Bridesmaid

In the midst of all the mess
did you ever find your peace?
In the midst of all the mess
how could you find anything?
In the midst of all this mess
did you ever find your peace?
In the midst of all this mess
who could find the time to clean?
It’s not too late
'Go live your life', they say
but I’m happy to just complain
it’s easier this way
Find a city with some wind
to pick you up a little bit
Find a life you’d wanna live
when i can’t even cross a bridge
sell your soul to your job
sell your soul to your god
sell your soul 'til it’s gone
It’s not too late
'Go live your life', you say
I’ll try not to complain
as long as you’re okay
Bridesmaid all the time, never gonna be a bride
More than I’ve seen
I never got the invite
You’re worried about the shit that never would’ve crossed my mind.
All I know for sure is
I miss you all the damn time
When you coming home?

Time To Go

Playing “house” at your parents’ when they’re not around
I know you hated how I said that I would probably always rent
or how I never really celebrate a holiday
or how I don’t talk to my family ‘cause they can’t stand the shit I say
or when you were asking me point blank,
from the driver’s seat of your new lease,
what it is I think I’m living for
I knew that I could never give an answer that you wanted
when I’ve never really been too sure
I hate the thought of anything hurting what I love
but I know that I’m a culprit, so it’s time that I be off
It’s time to go

Que Sera, Sarah

I know it’s old,
my “broken heart”
but it’s up on my sleeve
and I’m calling it art
I just need a place where I can complain
and I know you hate when I use your name
Like, Sarah, I’m disappointed in you
but it’s me making all the wrong moves
I know the reasons you had to go
I know the reasons I need to be alone
but I thought you might stay anyway
and make up our broken home
Yeah, I still pause
like I’m making a point.
but there’s never a point
just more of the same
and I know you hate when I use your name, like,
Sarah, I’m disappointed in you
but it’s me making all the wrong moves
I know the reasons you had to go
I know the reasons I need to be alone
but I thought you might stay anyway
and fix up our broken home
I know the reasons you had to go
can’t hear yourself think over all of our ghosts
but I thought you might stay anyway
and make up our haunted home
Of course, there’s always more
What else could I blame you for?
I could be home by now
It’s too little too late
but I…
sorry

Awkward As Ever

Awkward as ever
always a stranger
“You’re a guest, it’s time you act accordingly”
whatever that means
A fly on a wallflower
stuck in the highest tower
you’d be free if you could only let your hair down
even once
This place is bringing me down but I can’t get out
I just need to clear my head,
I think,
get out from underneath this cloud
Sorry for wasting your time while I waste mine
I just need to clear my head,
I think
and I’ll be fine
Just think of where I’d be without this cloud following me
Just think of where I’d be..
