lyrics

Later I should email everyone on SubmitHub with last night's live stream link
I could sift my mind for nature
what do you think?
I could write about nature
what do you think?

but I went outside this morning
did ten pull-ups from a branch
then returned to my studio
and had last night's Indian on a slice of eggplant
I wouldn't have said 'eggplant'
but it rhymed

what do you think?
what do you think?
what do you think?

I said Folk Boy was gonna die
I don't know what that means
but if it's any kind of sign
I keep seeing the same numbers again and again and again and again and again
33 and 44
live my life by 222
111
let the One be Love

I'm a sign of the times, move aside
Summer unwinds me
I frost up in the Winter
climbing down like an estuary
lead me to the Sea

I remember when it dawned on me
'these are not songs, they're my feelings'
and the only thing worth listening to
is the truth

I don't wanna write songs anymore
I just wanna sing
I'm tired of scheming
and marketing

I'm not here to know you know
the self I want you to
I'm here to know the truth

Simmer down
love starts now
it's all absurd
a shiny turd
