Of The World 04:07
lyrics
buy track
Read about us in a book about Missouri We weren't so much the characters As the loss of you and I Was as plain as Williams' prose So we are of the world after all We should have known that We're always when and were In the tense of every book you are always there To a woman or to a poem It said, simply: Look! I'm alive! So we are of the world after all We should have known that We did know it I believe So we had to withdraw a little, pretend a little So that we could make our deal with time Because we'll never be in the present tense again That's the deal we make with the past Trade us in for growth, it's all that we can ask To a woman or to a poem It said, simply: Look! I'm alive! So we are of the world after all We should have known that We did know it I believe So we had to withdraw a little, pretend a little I can see you in the margin there A printed place we will always share A pretend life we can always dare We can always dare Two little lives so very far So far away we don't even call We're going to have to pretend And withdraw So we are of the world after all We should have known that We did know it I believe So we had to withdraw a little, pretend a little

Third Blink 04:22
lyrics

Starts with a flutter Then glosses my eyes Blue caps and white stems I'm growing flowers inside My hands are melting I can touch time It has a temperature I want to feel it, I want it so very much The third blink is really a wink Two eyes: three dimensions Three eyes: full attention My thoughts are buildings I see their texture Build future memory Life is so clear when time flattens It can be too much Time can skip But I always come back A lifetime, a life trip The third blink is really a wink Two eyes: three dimensions Three eyes: full attention

My Carrel Window 03:59
lyrics
buy track
Not sure if my heart's in Degree chasing anymore In my private carrel Draft an outline for dropping out I wrestle my prospectus Academic expressions Stare out my carrel window Draft an outline for jumping out I don't know my own writing anymore My thoughts don't fit into footnotes or Chicago I don't want to be another patch of plaster On the false phallic facade Eight years, self-obsession Eight years, self-destruction In the back of my mind I've already dropped out I've given up on the malnourishment of my muse My mind, it grows In a different soil Than the sods of class rooms There's a lack of love in stiff rows Too many moods that don't bleed through Institutional veins There's blood clots on my tracks A life too broad To squeeze into A narrow tenure track Eight years, self-obsessions Eight years, self-destruction Is dropping out the same as copping out? Is giving up the same as giving up? Is disillusion the same as bruising? Is this degree the cost of losing me? Eight years, self-obsession Eight years, self-destruction
