We Go Together

we go together

well, you’re no gentle rose
no moonlit sky that glows
no poetry, no prose
but i don’t want any of those

you’re no sun on the rise
no cloud, no ocean side
no summer day or night
you’re just a beautiful girl and that’s all right

we go together

well, you’re no gentle rose

no poetry, no prose
but i don’t want any of those

o o o, o o o, o we go together

1999

all the boys and all the girls just want one thing, it’s love
it’s been a little while since we’ve been running with your drugs
i’ll take you back in time to 1999 tonight
when i was ready to be yours and lose these sordid lights

but if you come around here
you’ll see you don’t mean anything at all to me
but you’ve been making it harder to go any farther
you choke and you bleed

all the boys and all the girls just want one thing, it’s love
all the air and all the blood won’t stop me packing up
i’ll take you back to when we said we’d only have ourselves
but it seems now every heaven of mine is your hell

so if you come around here
you’ll see you don’t mean anything at all to me
but you’ve been making it harder to go any farther
you choke and you bleed

I Want To Be Where The Birds Sing

i want to be where the birds sing
and we all can sing along
i want to be where the birds sing
such a joyful, sunny song
by the trees and the fresh spring
o, that’s where we belong
i want to be where the birds sing so high

the trees will sing with us
as we climb them branch by branch

i want to be where the birds sing
and we all can sing along
i want to be where the birds sing
such a joyful, sunny song
by the trees and the fresh spring
o, that’s where we belong
i want to be where the birds sing so high

the wind will sing with us
as we run and jump and dance

i want to be where the birds sing
and we all can sing along
i want to be where the birds sing
such a joyful, sunny song
by the trees and the fresh spring
o, that’s where we belong
i want to be where the birds sing so high

Cut It Out

you are saving pennies and play things and maybe your soul
but it’s amazing how you’re racing through that pot of gold
bills a fistful, your thinking wishful, with desperation’s grip
feeling wistful with your final gristle, you shoot from the hip
you can’t learn that from a book

you gotta cut it out

it’s high stakes when you bring home bacon and don’t just go to school
no mistaking the road less taken, where make believe is cool
i am tracing heart shapes on paper to realize
free embraces on coupon faces between the dotted lines
this redemption is a snap

Brandish

the last bud to bloom is still hanging on

o lord, it is the time
to peel the ripened vines
and raise sweetness in the wine
it comes

it comes – an autumn day
the last bud to bloom is still hanging on
and now my heart is sore
the last bud to bloom is still hanging on
to find her sitting stray
the last bud to bloom is still hanging on
upon a granary floor

o
o lord, are you within
the chill that takes my skin
the cold whisper of the wind

it comes

the last bud to bloom is still hanging on

zoar

rain down your mercy and your law
i am aspersion, i am flaw
don’t sate me, cremate me, oh oh oh
until i’m whiter than these walls

we turned around, we turned to ashes
we turned around, we turned to dust

put out the fire with your eyes
take it with sodium chloride
don’t clothe me, expose me, oh oh oh
before i go too far to find

on the real real real real real real real real real real real
i need you
