hey man you're just sleeping we were climbing trees like when i was thirteen the ox in your veins the dirt on my cheeks i wish that i'd known how bad i'd want to keep this but it's all gone grey you sunk into i listen to the bands we used to i do all the stupid shit we used to went and lost every picture of you buddy said it was the least I could do had a dream i was a bruise at the bottom of the washington monument and you were next to me limp like a parachute hey nick i fucked up i'm sorry i'm coming back to colorado just like i promised

held my breath i fell asleep i killed the quiet underneath never meant to be so tedious to be so easily ignored black eyes dreamt of needles in the sky shaking loose like a pine tree smothering what he used to be if i start to change my mask every week someone might eventually be afraid to lose me little foil elvis in the fridge maybe i'll cross my eyes maybe i'll lie on the carpet facedown thirteen hours straight maybe i'll find out whether you're really four hours away maybe i'll drip down the kitchen sink maybe i'll find that separation clinging to a dream if i hide away for days and months and weeks someone might eventually be afraid to lose me

jamie knew how to break the rules he was feeling cool bright eyes and burning money got his own car and a room for a week he's so good at making friends but they've got their own plans got white and burning red gone straight to his head now he just wants them to leave and they'll leave when they want to this body doesn't belong to me it's someone else's entirely that boy died that week and some kind of man walked free he wouldn't tell because what would they think dreams of driving back to that city and chopping off their heads but he still wouldn't forget it so he scrubbed their names instead claiming brand new victims squeezing them to death drowning the innocent until he had no body left it's gonna take the rest of my life to kill that bad dream fucker back this body doesn't belong to me it's someone else's entirely

she traces keloid fractures planting fingerprints like saplings flawless skin and endless eyes whisper breath like sighs she clears a spot on the table spills snowflakes in shapes of angels clips their wings and narrows their waists until all that's left is veins tries to say i love you and her nose starts to bleed

dragged the teeth of her comb along my back leaving pink lines like dae-su notches all fourteen all twenty three she said what's under your nails dirt maybe ink rolled over and said try to get some sleep all of my dreams are ghosts stretching at seams under ivory overcoats "and he could have been alive" but it happens to me all the time i wish my blood wouldn't clot wish it'd spray like 80s action movies gather in tenenbaum puddles leaving porcelain tattoos i never meant for it

that scarf doesn't look good on you and besides it's barely even cold out there quit acting dumb and pull your shit together you change the locks every November no matter what city you're in stay in bed all day and watch the ceiling spin and get used to disappointment there are fireworks in a sleeping bag under a bed in my buddy's house and there are whispers in all the drawers they say they don't want me around i think i could be better this time filling my head with glass so when i fall back down that hole i'll break all the mirrors inside my skull all i wanna do is feel good forever
