Woke up in a ranch house
Only remember turning off the lights
Whispering about stage fright
Blond hair & black lace
Checkerboard linoleum
Under my feet
Bent over the kitchen sink
Closing my eyes
This was a daydream
Of businessmen alike
A stable family

Caitlin, do you like me?
I've stayed up all night typing
Your name into search engines
Looking at two dimensions
Of your perfect face and body
Having brunch with friends and not me
Previous jobs and diplomas
History of lymphoma

It was a misfire, a mistake
It doesn't weigh down on me like it does for you
Feeling all punch drunk in the backseat
Of a yellow cab 1000 miles away from you
Lost in the daylight of a hotel room
Pouring liquor all over some girl I knew you knew
It was a misfire, a mistake

When you go to sleep I'm gonna try on your clothes
With both my eyes closed just so I can know
What it feels to be inside you
You’re a city of gardens
Guarded but unopposed
I'm watering your ankles
And sowing your toes
I'm patient farmers boy

I'm attempting to k

False leads to dead ends
I will open up again
In buildings combed with mold
Across this capitol
I’m coming down
As this city falls asleep
Down off my two worn feet
I’ve grown so cold

Transport me and guarantee an opiate drug death
Visit me and adorn me my gr

It was a green morning
You told me in a cab
You fucked me in mourning
Just like that dream I'd already had

I was a father
For a few weeks
But you wouldn't let me
I was just your fodder
For a good night sleep

I'm stuck in daydreams and sex dreams
And re

I’ve been kissing your shadow for about three days
I forgot to behave simply made it up along the way
Worried your mind hasn’t had enough to eat today
Never heard a single word in my sleep I just lip synced
And washed pieces of myself down your kitchen sink

I'm older than m

Are you fit for trial feeling like a vending machine in your apartments lobby
How many shoes did you lose in the last move
Wearing an engagement ring just for attention it seems
I didn’t notice the weight that you gained over easter break
Jesus called he said you should let me in

You threw up in a limousine
On the way back from Bourbon Street
On the night of your bridal shower
You told me then that you loved me
In a drunk dial like we were both 18
I said I missed you
Then the line died

You got to name your sister’s horse
Where to live wh

Woke up with fingers crossed
In a boy's bed with your pants off
After polite declines of coffee & toast
Walked home itching in last night's clothes

Past the Phone Booth & the Beauty Bar
The broken windows of your neighbors' cars
Through the backdoor to a message

Get me out of this place
Take me back to the wonder years
Those mystery midnight rides
Before you fed the undertow
Mistletoe & lights
That christmas eve came back to me
And I'll be lost for a while
Hoping

I'll protect you through the lowlands
And I'll be

Chunks of marble that mean a lot to somebody
Gummy bears stuck to your naked body
Broken babies in boston I think of you often
Your perfect like a red head at sunset
This microphone’s gonna leave one of us upset
I still hear your organs working when it gets too quiet
