--
slipping silver under tongues
it helps us stay clean and pure.
it reminds us of cold and steely skies,
cold ocean water and winds floating
mist up our sleeves.

splitting time in foreign cities
at shows
outside during the shitty first band
kicking piles of dirty snow
with the smokers
the street gets dark fast in either direction
both ways uphill
windows keeping the crying baby screams
inside.

bedrooms
monitors burning eyes and radiating heat
of emails traveling
secret messages
and captured sounds
understood melodies
'things to say'
'best to type'
'send and forget'

shaking and blurring hands moving fast
blurring and burning
brrrrr
clinch release clinch release clinch release

everyones a hero
if you are alive

you are organic
eating carrots with dirt still on them

energy
circus

girlfriends are for singing shitty back ups on the stupid songs you wrote in high school.

the key to every good recording is an appropriate sounding snare.

if i could be a cowboy i would never come home.

better watch out.

nite soldier.
