i'm home again
it's been so long since i've last seen my room
why did i ever end up leaving
the animals are so beautiful
life contends all around here
i still spend time in the room
the neighbors are loud
the chainsaw cuts my attention
i see the limbs falling
when will the tree fall

Imaginary Joys

|
i got to play video games today
it's been years
they've changed so much
i'm still a knight on the plains
i still rescue princesses
and villages
i slay villains
i become lost in myself again
the ceiling is so expansive

Mother
06:44

|
i talked awhile with my mother
she was happy to see me
she looked so tired
she tells me my brother is always in pain
she herself is in pain
i can feel it
i watched her cry
but i wasn't sure of the emotion
i watched her sleep a little
there she has no pain

my hands hurt
sometimes they ache and twitch
how bad did i lose myself
everything seemed so normal

is the pain just the beginning
why do my hands hurt

Hospital Hallucination
05:28
|
|||
|
i'm back in the room
everything is grey
the footsteps on the tile
they are coming towards the door
i look over to my roommate
the bed is empty
the footsteps come closer
i wake up in my bedroom
i can't forget that place
i have to sleep eventually
everything is grey again
the footsteps are at the door
the door is opened
no one is there but the footsteps remain
they are by my bed now
i cannot move
i feel so cold
my veins become ice
everything becomes black
i feel my body
it hurts, but i can't see it
i wake up in my bedroom
everything is grey
the color comes back

Father

|||
|
spent the day with my father
he says i've grown
we talked about the past
we talked about the past
we talked about the past
we talked about the past
we talked about the past
we talked about the past
we sat in silence
he said my sister had a child
he told me all about him
it made him happy
my brother got angry
we hear banging from the room
my father is concerned for him
we talk about my brother
we talk about my brother
we talk about my brother
we talk about my brother
we talk about my brother
we talk about my brother
i see my father cry
he apologizes
it is frustration, i know that one
he tries
we talk about music
we talk about music
we talk about music
i go back to my room

my brother came into my room today
we joked around
we played some games
we were children
i saw my brother with his cat
they were happy
my brother went into his room today
he slammed the door
he cursed and yelled
he was in pain

I'm Still Here
06:47
|
|||
|
i'm in the room again
i woke up
i sat at the desk
i played my guitar
i ate
i drew a picture
i went to sleep
i'm in the room again
i woke up
i sat at the desk
i played a game
i ate
i played my guitar
i threw away a picture
i went to sleep
i'm in the room again
i woke up
i sat on the bed
i played the guitar
i ate
i stared at the ceiling
i went to sleep
i'm still here

He Was Perfectly Free
07:19
|
|||
|
i saw an ant walk up to a spider's web
he bobbed his head until it got caught
i felt sad for it
i broke the web
i watched him walk around to the other side
he was perfectly free
but he stuck himself again

Empty Doorframe
05:26
|
|||
|
i'm in my living room
the door is opened
it is warm outside
the door is inviting
th world is big
the door is empty
i stand in the doorframe
it is cold outside
the door is warming
the house is safe
the door is security
i'm in my bedroom
the door is closed
