Magnolia 04:15
find a Symbol find a sign like a tree like a heron like a song you’ve heard before doesn’t matter just believe start to see it in the wind under your nose down the street make it lucky make it love make it whatever from whatever above stick to it but you’ll shy away come back to it don’t be angry it doesn’t stay when you feel it hold it close good to see you again never notice until you go give me something when we’re apart to hold onto deep in my heart music! melodies Magnolia and pine trees! rocks in the dirt golden hour a flock of flying birds meteors, dreams true friends true family

Eat My Blues 03:10
universe do you do this to us to get sweet blue melodies out of us? is there a far away planet that feeds off of my vibrations? Bittersweet delicacies, mm! who is eating my blues who is sippin on my sound flower, dusty petals barely on confident standing in the sun are your colors just to please the bees? calculated and savory who is eating your blues? who is puffin on your perfume? eat my blues I don’t mind being used anything for you

I have feelings for you very nice feelings for you and I have feelings for him still have feelings for him I like to hang out with you you’re right in front of me and I never see him he’s like a fantasy he’s like a dream, he’s like a calling he’s like a ghost and I don’t even know if it was real you have feelings for me very nice feelings for me and you have feelings for her you still have feelings for her you like to hang out with me 'cuz I’m standing right in front of you you never see her, but you’re gonna see her and she’s like a dream, California calling she’s like a ghost and you look like you’ve seen a ghost just sayin her name what a love cross the coast what is love? for a ghost I understand man I do I don’t know what I would do if there was a chance and I knew I could hold my ghost in the flesh in my sleep I make up reason why to give a ghost a corner of my mind then I wake a take a look at what I’ve done my ground now flooded my logic undone what a love cross the coast what is love for a ghost when you only had eyes for a memory what was it you couldn't see?

Divine Games 03:40
the surface of something is hitting the front of my brain i see it in focus i grasp it it fills up my veins this thing that I’ve wanted for so long i’ve made it up to be what I thought it should be oh no, oh yeah in all my living so far when have i held on to anything that didn’t fade the next day on the comedown? i’ve learned to ration my dreams for i see the sides to me i am alive i am divine i am too bored and i don’t have time when I am ready for falling I will know my lover by my side sure and still and he had places to go to get to he wasn’t ready for any fallin no matter the mood and that’s cool, oh yeah this thing that I’ve wanted for so long i’ve made it up to be what I thought it should be oh no, oh yeah

Purgatory 06:37
these days i am floating i’m stitching i’m sowing together the pieces i wake up and i see the ceiling i wrote a letter that I never sent I put it in a box it’s in the corner of my room in the springtime I heard the baby birds crying out in the thunder and rain i feel the same when I’m late night scrolling infinitely going down i’m lost in a black hole come get me out well we must be going somewhere, must be going somewhere well what do I do in the meantime, I asked what do I do in purgatory? i got nothing back you should let me know if you’re not tryna hang 'cuz you leave me hanging in my brain what is your game? dear landlord next door i am sorry that i am so loud why can’t we be friends? [thx for the tomatoes] i only recently realized i’m in for a long ride i can’t recall ever asking to play well, okay well we must be going somewhere, must be going somewhere well what do I do in the meantime, I asked what do I do in purgatory? i got nothing back i asked again...nothin ...i heard imagine your ideals make them real close your eyes and draw something what is it you want? darlin you can have it what is it you want? babe you can take it what do you want? darlin you are divine to not be tired all of the time to be debt free i don’t want to be addicted to anything and I want, if you want you to have the same

you remind me of listening to Chris Thile thinking I might actually marry maybe I could have a family but when you ghosted i swore off the Punch and when you ghosted i swore off those thoughts and now i want to be a rock star got no time for standing still i used to think in tiny boxes i used to plan my future now i know you can’t and i never will

and then it all came into colors complimentary and then it all fell into place it was like we had forgotten just how to get here it was so easy it was like clicking heels and going home
