the planes of the mirror and hallway collapse
and fold over on themselves and melt into haze
the image spirals down and bounces back again
between the walls inside of my head
flick a light, try to stabilize my mind
though i thought, i thought thought i'd get to sleep ontime
that dream's gone, gone, gone, yes indeed
oh,
canyons and mountains, and countless moons
oh, how, how they've separated me from you
I guess there's only so much wound lickin' I can do
before they're gone, gone, gone, yes indeed
before I'm gone, gone, gone

Daisies

grey clouds floatin in on the humid air
stone steps up the hill to your house on a quiet stare*
the last time I stayed out in the rain,
my phone got soaked and it died
I tried to dry it off but it couldn't be revived
but you were standin' in the window, wavin to me
and so i went inside to find you as it started thundering
and we watched it rain from your bedroom
for the whole afternoon
now im just wishin I could stay here
stay here with you

I wash my hair, I wash my clothes
I see myself in the mirro'
I wash my hair, I wash my face
I know my look, I know my place

moonbeam down the hallway
is painting me a picture
pushing red and green into the frame
with a brush too fast to see
I could watch the oil mixing
for another couple hours
but it's probably time I went to sleep
and It'll come again tomorrow
it'll come again tomorrow
and it'll come again tomorrow for all that you know
it'll come again tomorrow when you're right on the nose
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
we tried to play nice
we tried to be friends
but we live in our own worlds of images
flat picture frames
floating on by
at least we could share the same one for a while
!%!%!%!%!%!%!%!%!%!%!%!%!%!%!%!%
!%!%!%!%!%!%!%!%!%!%!%!%!%!%!%!%
and I just wish that I had some energy
I would break straight through to the other side
of this wall that's between you and me
but deep down, I'm worried
that the drawings on my side of it
are gonna be better than the real thing

Night Beach Atlanta, Georgia
"[Night Beach's] melodies operate like private detectives—you'll find that after even a single listen they'll unconsciously soundtrack your every mundane moment. They're songs with soft noses and dark shorts; their deftly arranged layers remind me especially of Koopas from the Mario Bros. universe, smug punksters fitting snugly in their daring shells"--facebook post by Paolo Y. ... more
