trash compactor's on the fritz
you thought you were over it
well, you thought wrong
however will you get along?
the alchemist has gone astray
potions never work the way
you want them to
it's a shame, but is it true?
quietly you're planning the exodus
of the ghosts that make you feel you exist
i'm about to put things in perspective for you
you're not the last survivor
an open-ended inquiry
sent your kittens up a tree
and no one knows or cares
how long they've been there

Crystal Trash Fire

you never did feel very human
your body never fit you
quite the way you wanted it to
but in the pit of your small stomach
you wonder if you'll ever
find something worth turning into
if i can survive
then you can survive this
if you can survive
then maybe i can survive this
the world is a trash fire
with butterfly wings
everything's floating
and everything stings

see me slough off all the weight
see me float above the lake
see, i'm trying not to make
all my signature
mistakes
(ahh)

this is not the dream i had
in the summer of 2009
when the cherry trees exploded
perfuming the night
it's just not what i had in mind
when i packed up my shit
and drove to parts unknown
brand new nest, same old fledgling
ver·ti·go
you can leave but you'll never be home
when you're in space
no one can hear you screaming
but in the city
everyone hears everything
i want to make good on
all the lies i've told
before i die
cold and alone
my tongue is tired from licking
all these pity wounds
i think i'm ready now
to break from this cocoon
if we hurry we'll make the moon
(chorus)
