brother,
wake up,
wide-eyed and red-eyed son.

like christmas lights
in the daytime,
with our skeletons in the snow,

with ****** knees and elbows.

what birth did for my body,
let death do for my soul.

like an embrace
from the blackest night,
our necks bent toward the sky,

with telescopes but blind eyes.

all the sand in my shoe
and the love i have for you
it all boils down

all the dreams in my head
and the words that i've said
they all boil down

with the weeds in my hair
i don't care if something's there
*** we all boil down

to things beyond me

all the rocks and all the moss
and the minty dental floss
it all boils down

all the fountains at the mall
and the misty waterfalls
they all boil down

we are big yet we are small
in the middle of it all
as we all boil down

to things beyond me

in the cellar
beneath the stairs
three scared bodies
just lying there

while tiny windows
shake their panes
the wind outside
is going insane

mother dearest
take our hands
we'll talk about nothing
that's the plan

lightning glows
and radios
what's the word,
has your sister called?

just keep my mind
off the storm
the wind will show
what the clouds don't warn

in the cellar
no worries there
*** those three bodies
will climb those stairs

the shadows on the wall
they are me,
my all

but i'm free to speculate
what's beyond the rock,
my cave

it's inevitable
the weather and the time
will fold my thoughts,
these shadowed walls

the sun is now my home

the stone
that you're about to throw,
just put it down
kiss the ground
and look around

so
if that's the way it goes,
i'm going, too.
how about you?

yeah
i'm moving on
with no foot in the door
*** i'm already gone

skin
a bag of cells akin
to a fragile heart,
a weightless soul
that comes apart

when
the sky gets closer
then i'm going outside
to close my eyes
and find what binds
