Told Slant
From the Roofbeams
There’s a moment in the morning
Where I don’t yet know anything
Just sunlight, eyes closed, orange glow
Don’t go don’t go don’t go
Don’t let me crash into
My body
What will grow in my wake?
Like ferns spike up on graves
Talking out of phase with you
I can I can I? Can I can I? Can I
Stop loving you
You’re right, there’s just wind in my heart
There used to be more
So quiet, there’s just wind on the phone
I should have ended the call
But I don’t get wobbly for anyone
So I’ll stay with you, stay with you, even when it’s scary to
Takе all these cannon drum, heavеn trumpet feelings that I have for you
Looking at you looking at me
Feels like peeking at the ending
I want to see the world without me
Like Tom and Huck up in the roof beams
