listening, I am listening, but you can't feel me
missing you, I am missing you, cos you can't feel me
I bared my ghosts so you would know this
when you're too close, I'm out of focus
I need the most when I forget this
it goes so slow, but it's not hopeless
listening, I am listening, but you can't feel me
missing you, I am missing you, cos you can't feel me
your bones were built to carry your body
your eyelids meant to let you sleep
your voice aches to let you scream
but your lungs are here to let you breathe
listening, you are listening, but you can't hear me
missing me and I am missing you, cos you can't feel me
your bones were built to carry your body
your eyelids meant to let you sleep
your voice aches to let you scream
but your lungs are here to let you breathe
I bared my ghosts so you would know this
when you're too close, I'm out of focus
I need the most when I forget this
it goes so slow, but it's not hopeless

Sibling Song

when you called out in the nighttime
from your bedroom you were frightened
I would tiptoe to your blanket
hold you closely, watch the sunset
please don't cry
I wrote spells to make us forget
but in the darkness, we remember
how could she do this?
our dear sweet mother
in the darkness, I guess I hear her
I must still hear her, I still hear her
and I cry, still I cry
sometimes, I feel my body's haunted
and I swear, I walk accompanied by ghosts
they live inside my bones
they rattle my escapes
reeling with unknowns
and amplifying heartbreak
now I seek the company of trees and stars
and others who know what this means
others who cry

I left my emergency exits hidden in my hair
and then I had to cut it off
couldn't keep my secrets there
how will I escape now?
when you said you were the meanest person you know
did you mean you were gonna spend all this time proving it?
I believe you now, I believe you now
can we stop yet?
can we stop talking like we're saying what we mean
when we're losing it?
how do I hold water in my cupped hands
without spilling it?
how do I crawl into my own spine
without breaking it?
some day, I'll know how to let go
of these extremes that build my baddest dreams
despite these long years, I still can't breathe

Lavender+Lupine (Lasita)

you are the deep dark ocean
multitudinous, full of starshine
sunbeams filter down
the warmth can barely reach you
I love you when you're honey, when you're wine
when you're hungry, when you're crying
lavender and lupine will always remind me
when you're holding on and you can't let go
when you're feeling lost, just let me know
you are the dust and wind and moisture that forms rain
without you, flowers would never bloom
they'd stay the same
I love you when you're honey, when you're wine
when you're hungry, when you're crying
lavender and lupine will always remind me
when you're holding on and you can't let go
when you're feeling lost, just let me know
you are the deep dark ocean, so full of starshine
when the sun's warmth can't reach you
I will help you find the hydrothermal vents down there
I know sometimes when you call
you worry that you're bothering me
you say, "I'm sorry, it's still the same thing
it's so boring it's so distracting"
so I want you to know
when you're holding on and you can't let go
when you're feeling lost, just let me know
