about

4th track from the LP "With Envy & Absinthe"

lyrics

Breath without a sense of doubt. Please, I know.
This children’s music box plays until it dies, but
You and I, don’t play.
We don’t have to be spun up.
We don’t have to be run by any type of battery.

You know what I meant when I told you the truth back then, oh, three years past. Said “I still think about you every day, please don’t blame me. I’m not crazy. Well maybe. But I fuck you.”

Is it Alie? Is it A Lie for me to love?
Is that the truth? That everyone I’ve lied to since you
Are so green.

I’m hearing monsters in the attic.
My feet disappear into a tattered love seat.
My wooden built is what they meet,
My body is empathic as I rise, my head to a pillow.
Much obliged to the pixilated ghosts that pass my glossy eyes.
They’re here bringing tears just to dry my eyes.

We’re on a cloud in the sky in which everyone dies,
And I look – I’m looking up and seeing you.
And like the fire bedside I’d save you.
But I have no wings.

And down towards the healing.
You showed me everything.

And now I can mimic
What I’ve learned.
I can play my guitar.
And you might appreciate
What I create for you
In my… art?

Is it A Lie?
