lyrics

Sing me a song among groceries
Shoppers stare
But you hum along like there’s no one listening
So sweet to my ears though it’s country
I don’t care
So proud with your food stamps; decline my currency
Bring me to life on unknown streets
Lay me bare
I have nothing to do, but I do it with you so I don’t care

I can’t help but fall
For those whom I shouldn’t
But it’s hardly my fault
This heart is not wooden

So it rhymes and rhymes around my neck
Pull them tight, so tight steal my oxygen

Until I’m smothered in all that you are
Two states away is just two states too far

Be my kindred soul
Prematurely pruned
Oregon has swallowed me whole
Caused me to swoon
Will she swoon?

Can we take this jump?
Will we bounce back?
Let’s separate from this clump
In the streets, we’ll unpack
Should we even pack?

Take the rhymes from my mouth
All apologies
(Formulaic! Formulaic!)
Throw me back to my art
Rediscovered
(Inspiration! Motivated!)
Take my brain; wash it out
Leave your autograph
(Least Resistance! Memory Inflicted)
As Isaac says: “Float on”
(Forget all structure, images, ideals)

If you could set me free
Though I’d confine myself voluntarily
If only it were as easy as you say:
“If it’s where you want to be, be”
Just Be
