the absence of god will bring you comfort, baby
and planning’s for the poor so let’s pretend that we’re rich
and i’m not my body or how i choose to destroy it
folk singers sing songs for the working, baby
we’re just recreation for all those doctors and lawyers
there’s no relief for the bleeding heart
because they’ll be losing bodies tonight
and rob says you love, love, love, and then you die
i’ve watched him while sleeping and seen him crying with closed eyes
and you’re not happy but you’re funny and i’m tripping over my joy
but i just keep on getting up again
we could be daytime drunks if we wanted
we’d never get anything done that way, baby
and we’d still be ruled by our dueling perspectives
and i’m not my perspective
or the lies i’ll tell you every time
and morgan says maybe love won’t let you down
all of your failures are training grounds
and just as your back’s turned you’ll be surprised, she says
as your solitude subsides
and mike, i’ll teach you how to swim
if you turn the bad in me into good again
and i say there’s trouble
when everything is fine
the need to destroy things
creeps up on me every time
just as love’s silhouette appears
i close my eyes and disappear tonight
and something’s got to change
because our love’s the slowest moving train

APPLE, CUCUMBER & KIWIFRUIT JUICE WAS A BAD IDEA
i mean on hindsight its colour really should already have given me some sort of indication — it’s exactly the same ominous shade of murky ditchwater green as my hall’s jungle curry and asparagus soup. i could’ve bought 2 bottles of pokka green tea with this. never going to be adventurous with food again
in other news, today i cut up a pair of old tights and made myself makeshift seamless underwear

always having the most heartbreaking conversations about friends
1 week ago, 21:53 ◊i got back from a long flight
you said you’d meet me there
i’ve been tripping off constellations and stars
i found you at home, what was our home
with another man, oh man
been keeping you in my heart
and so i whispered into your ear,
“what are you thinking about?”
you just looked up at the stars
and so i whispered into your ear,
“who are you thinking about?”
it couldn’t be me
you can’t look me in my eyes anymore
without the rivers to tend
because you remember our love was true
but you just needed a hand
and you can’t look me in my eyes anymore
without yourself to defend
you know you hurt me so bad
just ‘cause you needed a hand
and i went off and saw things i’ve never seen
i really wanted you there
but you ruined what was love
just ‘cause you needed a hand
this is the way that it all falls
this is how i feel
this is what i need
you, by me—right here—by me,
right now
