lyrics

There is a string that needs to be played
A song that needs a name
Before it disappears
Before I disappear
Or else I stay the same

There is a grain of sand
Between my favorite teeth
It's everything I can do to keep
The ground under my feet

Nervous like the candle flame flickers
In the desert
Gawking like the yellow grass getting watered
And watered and watered

(Getting watered and watered and watered, watered and watered)

There is a string that lasts forever
And holds the only thing I want to keep
Halfway unexplained
Or unexplained away
Or else I spoil the splendor

There is a flash of pause
Between your favorite thoughts
It's nothing like you asked for
But it's what you got

Nervous like the candle flame flickers
In the desert
Gawking like the yellow grass getting watered
And watered and watered

There is a string that needs to be played
There is a map that needs to be opened
There is a song in search of a name
There is a path that looks like an exit

Freshman Biology Seattle, Washington

You always
have great taste,
Fists full of
changing leaves,
I miss you more
Than I'd like.
