Waxahatchee

Hey I'll go away You let me take my own damn car To Brooklyn, NY, USA I'll dream Embarrassing reverie I'm all detached feeling like myself I'll drink too much, I'll cause a big scene And I'll breathe I don't care who sees I'll be nobody I'll be the...

I watch these projections of us You're magnetic and I cannot keep up And I feel as you move in real close And I feel as your head arose You're a figment I believed it I depart, your dog died today And you drive all the way here to tell me i'm okay And I left a...

Take my word for it, I'm not worth it I ignored you all night and you don't deserve it Morning, bathtub, my skin soft and hot I was sure you were right but you're not I contemplate my ruined fate Someone will hurt me so bad one day And you'll resonate or I'll...

It's unclear now, what we intend We're alone in our own world You don't wanna be my boyfriend And I don't wanna be your girl And that, that's a relief We'll drink up our grief And pine for summer And we'll buy beer to shotgun And we'll lay in the lawn And we'l...

Short breaths, our living death. You take me for a ride. Mouth shut, all blood and guts and social suicide. Why don't you go, pretense in tow? We'll be alright. Eyes wide, good looks preside, you take me for a ride. We ascend, hand in hand. I toss and turn, yo...

If you think that I'll wait forever, you were right and, I'll give you everything you wanted if I can And when I look into your olive colored eyes I feel a breach, it makes me cry, it makes me cry I wake up early every morning And you sleep for hours after me...

I said to you on the night that we met, "I am not well" Our habits secrete to the sidewalk and street, our civic hell And we covet the dark, share a cab to the park And you'll let me speak of bearings undone, silver hair in the sun We are only 30% dead and our...

Crave, desolate, you dive in, we follow along I contrive you with Whiskey and Sam Cooke songs And we lay on our backs Soaking wet below a static TV set Conversation flows, counting shooting stars and catfish But I'll never make a wish Barefoot, parking lot Ge...

It's trivia, the tangles in my hair. Winter hat on my bedroom floor, next to your underwear. And pretty soon I'll have nothing left to cut loose. Being clumsy's an explanation, not an excuse. Lately I think about insecurity, how I'm not real sure I even know...

i'm not a whipper in the wind or solace laying at the bottom of a bottle or your thick skin escape yells both our names out loud we run like hell, i'll write a tragic epilogue and you'll act it out i watched your dad give you away i watched him drink the bitt...

I don't care I'll embrace all of my vices And we'll black it out or At least slow everything down And I'll fish for compliments And I'll drink until i'm happy And I'll wonder what you're doing But I won't call Our paths split It's morning but I still feel it A...

I left like I got my way But truly I left with nothing at all When I saw you the next day I knew they'd hear our breath through these walls And we are late And we are loud And we'll remain connected as you're reading out loud Mirroring a staggered youth Flower...

23rd street, the only girl I've ever seen. Pumpkin street lights, I was just 14. You are not sick. You hit your head on the brick wall. Quick comprehension, gold rings and waterfalls. We lived a fleeting convention but I felt constant in others' absence. Your...

It's late We are not awake And I smashed my phone I am learning how to be alone Resoundingly unpretty girl stares back at me And I become what everyone's harboring from And is it your fault? No I think it's my fault We digress You're inhaling smoke, emotionles...

Doctors might need love Silver spoons over fire You tell a lazy lie And I tell them you're a liar You sit in the dark Needles and tubes in your arm I see you in dark glasses Writers and old movie stars And you'd die before you look me in the eye I had a dream...

Full moon, we see our breath in a blue glow I follow you to the bar in the snow And then we roll around in your sheets And watch our habits become a routine And we'll fall asleep eventually And I'll move away, forget today someday Meditate, I expand on the flo...

Crowd stale, wholesale We're on the porch and there's a keg and you are quiet Wind shifts, I drift To autumn, I tell Dom what I see She laughs at me Blast beat, we retreat And it's a lonely street, the burden of circumvention But fractions like us Fill cities...

Hands under my clothes We can't let it go You set it up masterfully And then blame it all on me Cynicism smothering Implanted, blossoming in me Our fun is toxic and bold Embellished and oversold Embody me because i am weak I moved out but I never opened my mou...

We'll make it real loud Four years, we'll barely speak and you've got a husband now I have Waxahatchee Creek And you used to come here with me I need a heavy heart Allison's only calling me when her life's falling apart So I pour it tall and talk to myself in...

Sharp hangover, it is Christmas Eve It fades and evaporates Passing the trains and lakes and trees Your breaths are short and urgent and it is unsettling You got married when you were 15 Now I hide out from telephone wires at Waxahatchee Creek Your body, wea...

Weak knees, fuck your sympathy. I'll be my own best friend. She prays as the radio plays "I See A Bad Moon Rising.." again. Foretold, she lives on hold. What is she trying to save me from? Blindspot in the adjacent lot, waiting for my time to come. I won't wai...

I cling to indifference, you to your worst memory dark winter morning you honk your car horn at me and I will grow out of all the empty bottles in my closet and you'll quit having dreams about a swan dive to the hard asphalt ooh, ooh... won't you sleep with m...

The river's clouded thick with mud I can't hear your scream or see your blood And I do not trust your cheating luck I don't console you in the back of his truck I do not hold the means to mend You had a pain I could not comprehend Been in tangled envisioning...

Loaded, you'll eulogize before you will preach Rubbing your filthy hands on my speech My hedonistic sugar-white beach And the grievance that I breed If I fill you with fiction that won't hurt Will you eat up my words with the dirt? Outside in my inept h...

I'm not singing our song. I've been waiting here for way too long, working out long equations, drinking from paper bags. And I've spent 14 summers fucking around with this idea and I'll strain every connection and show you what I'm made of. You said again. "yo...

Come right back. Buy all that they have. Convenient disguise, We distantly laugh You are eleven. 1997. God is implicit. Your luck is consistent. And no I can not see into the future, No I cannot breathe underwater. Bit your last word, I Call out t...
