here’s a song i recorded in a bathroom when i was 17

the perfect town

mrs wilson carried the bible by her side
and she read those words until the day she died
where she smiled and let out a sigh, “i’m ready”.
to be free, to let things go
saying i know i know i know i know
and i screamed, “please don’t leave
your smiles done so much for me”
she said “when you kids were young
and played in the trees
i sat from inside and saw through the leaves
a lace in your hands, a kiss on the cheek
as pure as can be.”

please hold back and please refrain
from calling me those awful names
what happened to the love you claimed
was in your heart
lets shut our eyes and pretend we’re whole
with each other like we were before
and our bodies pressed against the floor
with lacing hands
you said, “do you remember that town
we used to talk and gush about
how we’d find it when we left the house
when we grew up.”

with no property lines, just please come inside
and the cars were just decorations for the street
and i know that it’s not right, to be up all night
but if i found it i swear to god i wouldn’t leave
but we’re no longer kids, no its not the same
just know that these words are not filled with hate
life’s like a kiss with no time to debate
because it’s already happened

on my dying day, when my days are done
i’ll lay on my back and reach for the sun
with my dying breath i’ll continue to hum
“la da da da da”
