lyrics

rain drip, yawn in the gutter 
came to, with dawn on the come up
burnt eyes, pre-dated summer
just ten ticks from five but the mind is so stubborn
wheres my lover? oh, another state
im lighting up to deaden taste 
of words I say, just pages cross my pillow case
i feel okay though
look, I found fire in the record cold of april
and she don't wear a halo
night cap cat chase days go
framed skulls grimace 
ill meet you on the other side of a New York minute
creating moments to live in escaping home its a prison
when your walls speak
alone sitting still, so still 
hear my notebook fill
thoughts of you, im staying patient
while my coffee tasting naked
hold the sugar, baby brang it
skin sweet
nowadays my goodbyes take sixteen bars
I miss the way your lips bring stars
now my disdain's charged, it runs for days
mood swings and cloud spit
all-black outfits
that feline dressed in night impresses right before she pounces 
on my third shift, drowsy
i'd disconnect my shadow from my feet it won't allow me though...

ill make a move, taste the moon
make a movie play it through
space the room, paint in blue 
face a truth we say is doomed 
it may consume, and kill those left
but the thrills no less 
my shadow found your silhouette 

I'm faded shaded from the spotlight 
attention hurts I prefer deferring, not mine 
divert your eyes and blink, I will not be another guy
im standing out in Franklin Street the rain is pouring, thunders nice
midwest weather swinging like my mood
my person is split right in two
thats twice he rude he wrote ink blue
purpose, value, I see both in you
yeah lets get together 'Dal we could make the dopest crew 
i've felt it for brief moments 
breath close, sync to one 
seldom with each, hold it
wheeze dope sting the lungs 
I think im so pathetic and
they think i'm too poetic damn
they cannot tell I'm dead to that
when so high up, no head attached 
I'm out but wanna get a cab 
take it home and never leave 
i wrote this note and drove it to you hoping you'll remember me
when cruising back i'm lost for six hours on the spot
in surplus with my thoughts so my stereo is off 
sit in a little silence 
now we tripling the mileage 
summer's coming hear the humming of the lions
a couple leo's stuck in limbo
weaving love poems through a pinhole 

ill make a move, taste the moon
make a movie play it through
space the room, paint in blue 
face a truth we say is doomed 
it may consume, and kill those left
but the thrills no less 
my shadow found your silhouette
