Rest My Head

I was looking for places to rest my head
where I could be alone
could we get there by boat?
the highest mountains, the rivers, the furthest islands
but you kept me anchored here
I'm lost and breaking down
your heart beats with no sound
my hips find friction and now there is no doubt
breathe quick you're sinking now
you can't hold on to a sound
hands locked in strangers as you find familiar ground
Take two and knock right out
tell me you need this now
wrap me up tightly and tell me I'm just too much
these sheets will tear me down
you can't hold on if you drown
hands trapped in hearts that I have never found
Notches in bedposts and skin on skin
Taking one and then five, let the fun begin.
I was looking for places to rest my head
Where I could be alone
Could I get there by boat?

the drive is quiet but the streets are loud
can you feel my heart beating over in your town
do your legs shake with uncertainty
does your heart brake when you're feeling the heat
i've got some time left to pass by
so i spend it here and i wonder why
i've got these chains wrapped round my spine
and they keep me here right as you walk by
i swear i think i saw me in your eye
tripping over things i thought i'd never find
i'll watch you from the wall
i'll watch you from the wall
i came to stay but now i have to leave
cuz my hands are shaking, do you see me?
i've looked three times today, and it's not even three
i've looked three times today, please tell me not to leave
stuck with your head in a book
much to busy just to look
do you see me standing in your peripheral

don’t say you felt it, when it hadn’t felt the same
in a long time
don’t say you meant it, and that it would never change
for a long time
don’t say you’re happy when you’re lonely and ashamed
does it feel like
you’re just so helpless when all you want is to escape
so you hold tight
and it feels right
when you look me in the eye
so come on, come on,
tell me what you want
well i’m back and forth
like words we always exchange
when i’m back you’re fourth
feels like i’m always in your way
“you’re always guilty and you never look away,”
“i swear that i have changed,”
“you’re always smiling and you never can relate,”
“i can never feel that way,”
“you have a problem and you just don’t want to say,”
“can we find another way?”
“you’re just so helpless when all you want is to escape,”
“but i hold tight”
don’t say you felt it, when it hadn’t felt the same
you’re always guilty and you never look away
don’t say you meant it, and that it would never change
you have a problem and you just don’t want to say

When I Get Home

i fell in love at the bar last night
the tender and the dim blue lights
a sweating pitcher in my hand
hazy eyes and hazy smiles
can i call you when i get home
cuz lately it's been kind of cold
and i'm clutching sheets without not keeping warm
i'm kind of naked on
the cutting room floor
broken bottles and broken hands
can you trace the lines between the sand
i've got fresher wounds than new tattoos
rusty needles making proof
the grass is green but my feet are loose
rolling around and bleeding through
does it hurt that you want me,
though i never said sorry
for all the fucked up shit i do
didn't say what i needed to
and does it feel like we're drifting
locked the keys up and sifting
through old memories and work photographs
did you find what you need, do you think you'll come back?
