Foxing

Her hair was in her eyes
And I could hardly hear her hum
in the midst of everyone
With "I never meant to,you're better without”
Division like all is i...

My bloodhound baying at your door
The wild grass overlapping your front porch
The sound of scratching claws trimmed short
Keeps you buttoned up on the...

She says, "You always smell like cigarettes
And there's always whiskey on your breath
But you're the best that I can do
And I think I love you."
Now i...

I wrote you a letter
Asked your best friend to send it
But took to the sea before you could have read it
Retreated to snowcapped waters of the unknown...

You sang in the swell
Coruscating with such
Ordinary colours of the coast
The champaign fielding neighbourhoods
Where you've come to know contentment

Honey beads from those ardent eyes
So here I sit, flooded in molasses
So call me what you will, just calm me

The frames and faces I've mistaken

At Rose Duchesne
I blew a kiss to him
I want to drive with my eyes clo...

Cursed on the odds by Father Mark
Said Take the bet or burn in hell
It seems like god gets enough attention
But he's starving for your compliments

I feel like a rover alone
Singing h...

I was floating there for so long
I felt it all at once

I was floating there for so long
Petrified by the sight of the Sun

I was just thinking about
Watching television next to you
Just to sit there on the couch
Not do much of anything at all
Sacred insignificance
They are...

If I believed in love
I'd keep it to myself
I'd bottle it all up
Until my lungs couldn't take
Another second of it
I'd move to a new state
If I believ...

I stared at my clothes too long
Now all of them look like cicada shells
From something once young
They’re from somebody else
I heard my friend barking...
