Consequential Love
02:20

To see you as you are
That's consequential love
One touch in thirty years but I know another path
Reframe
Transpose
You think it's safe when you slip back home
You can't escape the second hands that you owe
Case in point: embrace that boy
You made a choice
To see you as you are
That's consequential love
One touch in thirty years and that's all you'll ever have
They're complete and you're half
On a driveway home so you chase the past
The hesitation comes around and you laugh
Case in point: embrace that boy
You made a choice
And I swear this time won't be the last that I bend back home to you

Oh, Javelin!

Incandescent shining through the window
A cicada carried in a note
This reminder of every year that passes
In the corner staring like a ghost
Every word written with a motive
And every scar was singing
Faded outline, my shadow sits within it
Unafraid and just beginning
The years keep passing by unspooling on a further line
Every scar and fold erasing
No broken bones, no inner panic, so who am I?
A patina on the casing
Oh, Javelin! Give me faith and carry me on your way
Oh, minaret, you remain with your psalm calling out to me
It comes in waves of blue and white
So last one here, turn out the light
Are we so temporary just taking what we carry
With every thread a different hue
But stitched together, they disappear
Fading in and out of view
Wake up! Wake up!
I can't recall the sun as every day continues dimming
The years keep passing by unspooling on a further line
Unafraid and just beginning
Do you hear it too on a distant line?
A tether of some kind pulled so taut
We cannot untie
Is this your knot or is it mine?

MacArthur Station
03:00

Come back home!
You've been searching for so long
And left the ones you know
Holding onto an apparition
Or was it just a ghost of a promise come and gone?
We said "adieu"
We said it all
Pleated pants and button downs
Sing along to the sound of the common crowd
Muted tones and wedding gowns
They call to you
They say "come back home!"
You've been searching for so long
I hope you're not alone
Taking stock of your apprehensions
And these hands we hold
We made a promise to ourselves
We said "I do"
We said enough
I got a one way ticket out of town, so I sent you off
One destination no matter when
MacArthur Station at 1:00 AM
You found me waiting and you could tell
Intoxicated as I might have been
You questioned, so taciturn
And said "come along for that ride"
One destination no matter when
MacArthur Station at 1:00 AM
