LYRICS:

Maybe I can’t trust my eyes.
Thought I saw you in the crowd there.
Only you move with such brooding omniscience;
I left before I’d know.

In every motion,
and every moment,
I still catch your scent there.

A formless deposit
that finds me in quiet
and paints me with bruises.

It’s old clothes
and that soft record hiss. 
Tiny cracks in the my time;
in the thing that I decorate.

Harm finds a way
and everything I know to play
tastes funny now.
Wake up wasted, wince, and repeat.

Tender vessels we fill with alkali,
know that I’d spill it all just to say goodbye.
Gloss a shine in the dirt—expose your bones.
Supine in the night but still alive.

Stray.
Know there ain’t no one to save you.
Stay bereaved .
We'll decay like autumn leaves,
the moon and seas.
Every place I was trying to be,
every place that you’ll go but just not with me.

Maybe I can’t trust my eyes.
Thought I saw you in the crowd there.
Only you moved with such brooding omniscience;
I left because I know.
