Going Home

Not the end.
We are not the beginning, the middle.
It's obvious.
When summer sounds so sorrowful I have to know why.
Want to move?
Anonymity can sound so profound.
Write it down,
this way I'll be forgetful by candlelight.
Not tonight.
I told her that I'm going home, so I'm going home.
We both know the radio-waves carry sound far too loud.
It's funny to know,
to truly know,
and relay the message to others who know.
They choose not to treat me so differently.
Thank you, I thank you.
I needed some solace to send me off to the city, and you needed it too.

Look Different

Maybe could give me a call.
Remember the time I dyed my hair?
You'd avoid my eye when you said it's fine,
it helped it know you cared.
Maybe I could give you a call.
Remember the time you ran from home?
You were miles away when it started to rain,
you called me so I'd know.
I said "Man, you're sounding so different".
You said "All of us are, any way".
And you asked one time how I felt about dying,
and I wasn't really sure what to say.
Maybe you could give me a call.
Remember the time we sang all night?
I had become a wreck when you jumped off the deck,
because you vanished there from my sight.
Maybe I could give you a call.
Remember the time you came to school?
It once was yours and it's not anymore,
you called me so I'd know.
I said "Man you're looking so different".
You said "All of us are anyway".
I remembered the time that you spoke about dying,
I asked you if you're okay.
You said "Why does all of this matter?"
And we haven't spoken since that day.
But I'd die like you just to tell you it's true.
I wonder if you're okay.

Can I stay a year?
I'll stay a year and ask myself again,
because the songs outside are starting to wear me down.
Can I stay in here?
I'll close my eyes, believe in giving back.
Is it not enough to truly drown them out?
Surgery and broken bones.
Taking turns to take me home.
Say "That's not the deal we had".
Apprehensive. crush this half.
Can I cover up the way I used to cover up at night?
Because this phantom pain is starting to creep me out.
When the birds outside begin their song they know it's been too long.
And my eyes won't work unless I turn them down.
Surgery and broken bones.
Taking turns to take me home.
Say "That's not the deal we had".
Apprehensive, crush this.
It's always times like this I find myself reacting to what you didn't say,
to what you'll never say.

*I'd like to start this one off? (I don't start it off)*
Judging by the look on your face, I've said it enough.
It's over as I'm bringing it up, already begun.
The dust is in a settling place, it's piling it on.
To see it in the light of the day, it plays in the sun.
I swept it away.
You said you're bringing it back.
I'm not bringing it back unless this house is clean from the top to
The bottomless feeling I keep on repeating without knowing you knew it
Two more times left before.
My lessons, they should've been learned.
I can't keep on settling scores, it's infinity.
I'm trying not to sigh anymore, trying not to be me.
I think of her like she's a home, a dwelling to live.
The fireplace, a heart beating slow, I'm keeping it lit.
But I put it away.
