Bursting the ear drums of the one you love is the perfect way to say I love you back It’s a long con, a draw out the perfect way to sleep with the lights out but darling we’ll never really fit in the plane flies overhead and we’ll all soon be dead darling I’m so sorry you never truly realized your dreams but theres always next time I guess lets just sleep the week away we’ll try harder some other day but i don’t have a plan, how about you? the plane flies overhead darling I’m sorry but we’ll soon be dead and buried with dirt and sleet so listen to our love fall asleep darling lets sleep

Seymour 02:30
My curiosity is finally coming in So I called Seymour last night, and I asked how he’s been He said he’s doing fine Ask how I’ve been passing the time Do you remember your last family vacation that time you crashed your dads Pontiac into Lake Michigan What a night that was for all I thought we’d die when he found out tell me, have you been doing much? Tell me everything that I’ve missed out on Tell me Seymour, have you been doing much lately? Tell me everything that I’ve missed out on You seem happy in those photograph you took in July I hope that’s not wishful thinking, as I can see the glimmer in your eye But I want you to know I’m happy too I hope get to see you soon

Pulaski don’t let me go I’ll feel a longing deep in my bones I won’t get a chance to really grow old We’ll be called war criminals and traitors but i’d rather live and die in the depths of Decatur and hang my loaded gun up on the wall Before it gets too dark We can sell off our ammo, you can sell off your sword to fund the endeavors and adventures in the north what a time to live, and to be holy again Water looks fresher at the lakes front where we can discuss our mistakes and royal fuck ups and set that plot of land to be our home Before it gets too dark
4.
Shooting Hipsters, that book that you read so softly and sweetly to me as we pine for sleep Hemingway and Salinger all the love lost aboard the Challenger but we are in too deep But I can’t give you anything. Punching holes into the drywall as I make my last fight or flight call it’s all for the love of the sport And you’ve spent the last of your dimes getting out of your parents loveless love life If you ask me thats money well spent But I can’t give you anything
5.
Well I’ve put my best foot forward but my head still lingers on the pillow the windows completely caving in collecting so much water and snow That I think we’ll soon begin to drown We can go for a walk if you think that’ll make you feel better but theres no confessing sins to god in the hellish sort of weather But i’d much rather drown Oh i’d much rather drown

Geraniums 03:41
Sleep on the couch stretch your spine out and before you notice it will feel like a mattress in no time but you’ll doze off before I get home which is alright as we’re mending our bones but it’s painful to think that we won’t speak until the morning when we’ll be different people With our bloodshot eyes and broken thumb Those Christmas lights, and geraniums they keep me going on Sleep until mid morning we’ve got nothing planned today though our knees will tremble and begin to shake under the pressures of our bodies weight we can talk over water how disappointing we must be to our fathers though my eyes are bleary and it’s hard to see I know deep down my mother’s proud of me and my bloodshot eyes and broken thumb with those Christmas lights, and geraniums but they pale in comparison to what you said so tomorrow morning we’ll sell my bed and we’ll drive off
7.
Don’t open your eyes There’s nothing to see here but the spot where your parents fell in love is now a pit of spit and mud Now your childhood has been ruined by those summer suns and oceans the fever dreams stick to your bedsheets and those books you read when you were 13 You can waste your precious time on spoiled milk, and jesus christ as religion is all that you seem to know but your church reeks of booze and tobacco now you father’s calling the police and your mother looks on innocently and all these years been dyed and thinned out blessed with holy water and catholic doubt But why do you lie to me
