What's this song about?
Generate meaning
1
Pan up from the ocean.
2
pushed like icewhite hands in winter water
3
stasis chasing hiscores in a forgotten arcade
4
skipping pale before a blue screen of death
5
and short breath and marshlands old to pave and push live freeways
6
carry my air wherever i sleep on a spit in a fatsuit
7
a set of split quotes fleeing cold from my back in a hot mute panic
8
pinned selfconscious as a naked turtle.
9
there is no doing left.
10
bloodhounds inert in electrified cages, asymmetrical warfare
11
sidescrolling through an abandoned city's sprawl
12
crossing clouds when they can see your breath and tracks
13
bowed heads and thinning thumbs piled up at a dead end
14
snow from a tired brown sky, an hourglass with no neck
15
on the dogleg consulting a heineken for marriage advice
16
where there be dragons, elves against mice,
17
are taglines disguised as songs.
18
why ask what year it is?
19
bright beige food, footage of accidents in video loops
20
when they began using their lifetime passes, dancing with the coals
21
confined to grids, limited to perfection
22
trackback to fill in the tendons
23
i am a white male in my late twenties, so it has already been said.
24
it will not end, it will not come back, like a dog in the city,
25
like the first time you drove through a place you'll be moving to
26
not many are fortunate enough to sleep without dreaming,
27
most have to live with themselves their entire life
28
Walk out on the ice floe
29
the distance dark with black snow
30
Sailor bailing out the boat with wood salvaged from the hole
31
frogger stuck with dead controls, out of time without setting foot on the road
32
soldier in a cave alone telegraphing codes into an empty ocean
33
shredded hands pulling the rope, it wouldn't hurt so much
34
if you would only let go
35
Breath is boiled bodily steam hissing from a sealed stovepipe
36
sprouting from iron lungs fired by the corpse of grizzled grey bird coal
37
each sunset a railway tie, each rail a thin strip sliced from sinew and skeleton
38
given crescendo, all conspiracy and no resolution, a forever storm
39
told the circle of the earth would roll endlessly without edges to fall from
40
so i busied myself painting a mural of the sunset to hang behind our graduation
41
and devised my parting precocious words
42
from all the borrowed humble grandiosity i could scrape together
43
while feathers were plucked from the hollow earth
44
burnt quills' circling smoke sucked into its byzantine mechanical heart
45
howling whirls of special promising ash tracing the contours of crushed snails
46
down the entertainment dream inhale floured in possibility's machinations,
47
lineart sunrises and daily affirmations
48
eagerly biting shiny nickels rendered from the priceless soot exhaled
49
from a cagesheltered of blackthroated children calling for another
50
against the growl of their collective stomach's engine
51
threshing entropy to progress and powerlines, sustained by treats.
52
hope as a veneer of young learned sarcasm
53
a molasses desert slowscaling permanent torsos
54
taped together my former split jaw (though not literally of course)
55
like i've been engraving on winter night for weeks
56
blueinking sleeves i cannot wear on days that don't exist
57
a peeled jar bleached and filled with soil, sprout planted and growing
58
thumb on the scale and the same wait as i could reach back through the fog
59
stolen north, tracks laid and mortgaged to a clear pinched forcedperspective
60
painted on a wall in a bathroom stall
61
trying to scratch a reply to myself on the wall,
62
but i don't have fingernails, and one by one the lightbulbs are burning out
63
the settling ether, old men eating breakfast,
64
the fog of summer mornings rubbing along blue streets
65
finally scattering against the burning disc of the sun
66
a long drape shuddering its last wide sigh for the warmth of its final petals unfolding
67
Kids drink grape juice, grownups drink wine
68
one who knows only sweetness remains a child
