Dream of Arson

I dream of arson,
Freedom baby
This english tongue has gone sour
You dream of your son
Holding hands with another man
Then you wake up to take your last shower
You dress me in his clothes
And when I turn down a rose
You start to explode
This is the road less traveled with more gravel
But my knees ain’t that scraped up yet
And when I get to the end of the road
I’m sure that I’ll be sold on this life that I have chose
Burn baby burn,
I’ll see u in hell

Found

I listen to break up songs and think of you
And all the silly shit we used to do
Like stealing stray eggs from the 7-eleven
And taking Black Dog pints into Buck’s empty heaven
On the last day of the before times
You were nowhere to be found
Got caught up in the crowd
I was never quite that loud
As the leaves turn golden
I can’t help but be beholden
To all the laughs we’ve shared before
I’m moving on
Moving past this
And I hope you get through this
Maybe I owe you a kinder goodbye
But I don’t have it in me to even say hi
When I run into you
around our old stomping grounds
It’s been a year
feels like a lifetime
Since we were knocking back pints
In the Dog’s basement
Couldn't get closer to heaven if we tried
I wonder what the last days of these times might look like
Will we be sitting under the summer sun
Or cooking up a new type of winter fun
Will you be around
Will I even want to be found

Labour Day

Bring out the first shots of the night
Wash down the fear in my life
It’s a late night reconnaissance mission
And you have always been in my vision
It’s like i’m seventeen again
Sneaking out from the party
Whisper tender hellos in the alley
Make a glorious return
Pretend nothing happened
Except I lost my glasses
Bring out the rest of the firewood
Light up the fear in my heart
This is just the start
Who knows what’ll happen in the next part
It’s like I’m being seen for the first time
Despite the flickering porch light
Who knew these emotions would come with 24
I think I’m ready for more
I make a glorious return
Pretend nothing happened
Except I lost my glasses

This Time Next Year
03:13

Biked past your old apartment
someone new lives there now
They keep some plants on the sill
The kind you could never keep around
The kind your cat would kill
There's a target on your back
That the green machine is chasing
We’ve got some practicing to do
To send these champagne corks across the way
I’m waiting for that glorious day
A kitchen full of besties
Balcony of laughter
Oh I’ve missed these days
When the taboo buzzer rings out for the last time
I’m so happy I could cry
Then we’re singing happy birthday at the top of our lungs
It’s been a while since I’ve sung this song
And heard all my friends singing along
This time next year we won't miss what we're missing

Kill (Outro)
02:22
|

I have a lot of thoughts
going through my head
Every single night
Every single day
Will the changing of the seasons ever not make me feel this way?
Is being like this at 24 ok?
Will I be ever able to handle rejection?
Do I owe you a kinder goodbye?
I wanna set this all on fire
I wanna set this all on fire
I wanna set this all on fire
And kill the imposter
