aka there used to be a door here
i still remember the long soft days
some have hardened and petrified
carved like a map in the scratches we left
on the floor we have emptied and
i know there's no wisdom to gain from the cut
most times it's just a wound
there is no honor in bleeding it out
there is honestly nothing to prove
i am the hollowness
behind the rusty tumblers of this old lock
you are the faint line of fade
where you used to hang
up on the wall
you could say it in simpler words
you could say so much for object permanance
there is honestly nothing to move
you could talk to me, anyway
i think i am moving
hope i am going anywhere at all
so put all your parables and poise
back on the shelf
pack up that old allegorical noise
keep that shit to yourself
cause i think i am moving
hope i am going anywhere at all

if i am the whole body
then i am the spur in the bone
then i am the loss of the faculties
you only hold what you own
if i am the carrying weight
then i am the drop and the roll
then i am the hands up empty
you only own what you hold
i am surrounded
but i am often alone
if i am the voice that you're hearing
then i am the set and the tone
then i am just bristling and bursting
you only say what you know
and if i have the freedom and fortune
then i have the choice of the road
i am so goddamn regretful
every way that i go
i am surrounded
but i am often alone

maybe you'll find me down by the water
sure, i've kicked a rock in my day
prickly lake weed with names i don't know
brightly colored fish will keep growing
as long as there's room left to grow
so please pass on my warmest wishes
i'll miss the party, i hate to admit it
but i usually do
i am otherwise engaged
crying is boring if everything is boring
give up on dying and self sabotaging
paint up on downed trees
halfway submerged
brightly colored moss
keep growing when you can
try to keep honest
try to be happy
move cause you have to
if not cause you want
skip the party if the party is not what you need
maybe you'll find me down in the water
sure, i've kept rocks in my pockets for years
but i am otherwise engaged
