sawdust 01:10
laying under a tree feeling the full weight of gravity there is sawdust in my hair i do not have room to care
3.
he talks to me through the window he talks to me through the window hands and eyes and pen on paper too talked to me and now he'll talk to you
4.
hissing trains and hanging laundry remind me where i'm from but still the language doesn't quite come like it used to can't go back without feeling like a kid again when your home is just a place not a friend as it once was stuck between the door of one and the other always one foot out the door between cultures stuck between the door of one and the other always one foot out the door between cultures hissing trains and hanging laundry hissing trains and hanging laundry

clam song 02:16
stay as open as a broken clam i don't like seafood but hot damn tell me about the time you cried under a tree and told yourself to leave soon and then you didn't and told yourself to leave soon and then you didn't hear this song on the front line i'm not here to waste my time standing on a stage and screaming for freedom in a life where we don't just have to survive it in a life where we don't just have to survive it

plant life 01:08

hairy potter 01:25
when i get sad i cut my hair i am a newborn baby queer i could be a boy i could be a girl i could be a gender tiltawhirl when i get sad i cut my hair it's the last thing that i care for when i'm in bed and i can't get out and all i see is different shades of red wash a tattoo off my foot with conditioner and soap i'm not proud of getting old quite yet when i was young i thought i'd be just so crystal shiny clean but here i am hairless and naked all the time
8.
spine 01:01
fell asleep and forgot about you then remembered you're so heckin cute i wanna make out with you all day and night too looking at your face and understanding texture looking in your eyes and understanding color can't i be the one you want, not her? not her not her not her not her.
