lyrics

looking out
is hard enough
like feeling doubt
or in denial
bout everything
if you need me dial
give me a ring
and i’ll be right there
with dirt on my face

giving you my full attention is
easier than never mentioning
all the ways i look around
when my cornea is all spinning out

i wish i could find a way to get
long hair out of my brain another day
but if living in heaven means im gone

i had four paintings i did for three years
and i kept them away, with my books on shakespeare
monologues and analog recordings of miles davis
they stayed locked away from the subtle notes they gave us
and the fog rolls in at night
curling in ripped up paper
i wish i could accept it
i wish this book could save her, that’s life. my life. my life. my life.

and i’ll be running out with the superseding mist
if my room’s a capsule, frontal cortex or abyss.
i read books with one eye, so i can see better
it reminds me of the time i analyzed the letter,
i wrote, she wrote, she wrote, she wrote.

digging out my past,
getting in my eye; i don’t know
heaven’s a boy anyway.

blues chords are nice
if you like to run far away,
the labels are caving in

and all the people, who
pretend to care, they won’t last
i’ll take it all on my chin

but if it’s wrong
i have to know, i won’t go
heaven’s a boy anyway.

i wish i could go back
8 years in time
to the day i woke up
to a mind that wasn’t mine

and now i’m spinning out
and i guess i’ll never rest
it’s all blue and synesthetic
they’re just memories at best. that’s my life, my life, my life, my life.

breaking all my bones,
seeing all the actions replay
heaven’s a boy anyway.

bad dreams are fine,
if you want to rewire your thoughts,
but thinking them makes me blue

and all the people who
pretend to care, they won’t last
I’ll wear this all on my chin

but if it’s wrong
i have to know, i won’t go
heaven’s a boy anyway.
