lyrics

i awoke outside.
crumpled leaves, fruit bruising on its side.
look around and check the lights:
is there something else in the night?

i awoke outside.
the smell of the rain burns like fire on my right thigh.
and for a moment, hopeful
i’m falling out of windows, not getting pushed from behind.

do you know what it means to find leaves in between your teeth?

i awoke outside.
hands shaking hard in the sunlight of my life.
if parents buy you the things you like,
where's your alibi?

say the south side is dangerous.
say that witch house is vacant.
say that liquor makes you brainless.
"cut grass and pavement":
i dare you to say it.

sara can you find me,
like a moth to the light?
sara can you remind me
how to speak into the night?
