Sharpen

1.
It lingers Singed fingers Cold bodies Melodies Whispered moans Soft hellos Quick goodbyes Stay awake Watch the day Feel the night Lose myself In mind’s eye Comes a time Pressed flowers Turning leaves Fields of green
2.
Variation 01:39
These hawks circle like A spinning toy top These vultures circle like The tick of a clock The water is cool like A frozen corpse The water is hot like Cherry Jell-O It all repeats with variation Your lips are my soft salvation It all repeats with variation Summer sun with no vacation Honey is sweet like Failing out of school Honey is yellow like Killer bees God is my witness like Daytime TV God is my killer like Unchecked anxiety It all repeats with variation Your lips are my soft salvation It all repeats with variation Summer sun with no vacation It all repeats with variation Your hips are my close relation It all repeats with variation Summer fun without vacation
3.
Periphery 03:01
I am a periphery It’s all blurred now Lock me in Lose the key I feel it inside Like a buzzing hive It’s real to me You can’t see Measured in weight Invisible to you It’s all heavy Yet I’m floating
4.
My Nature 02:40
These clothes are so heavy My eyes can’t focus on What I’m hearing is just An emptiness I can’t One foot then another Sway me again and again We’re trees taking root But I’m falling again I’m smashing my phone Then driving away And I’ll say I won’t be back But that’s in my nature The air tastes so bitter My thoughts smell like sulphur I can’t will myself to move I’m terrified and stupid Overconfidence will kill me I can’t walk the walk So I’ll just lie here with you And hope I don’t wither
5.
If I ever get cancer of the blood And they drip chemicals in me I will take up chain smoking Like my grandfather did If I ever own a cute dog I will pet it with love and care And I’ll never let it die That would just be unfair This berry smoothie tastes like A piece of my flavored soul Effervescent and tumbling Through all of these neon lives If I ever can’t hold you again I will be as empty as my brain If I ever feel awake I will stop drinking coffee This berry smoothie tastes like A piece of my flavored soul Effervescent and tumbling Through all of these neon lives

about

i recorded this on a lonely night after only listening to world of echo by arthur russell for a long time. this is more of a diary than a polished album, but i hope some of you find something in it. thank you so much for listening and caring, i love you so much.
