lyrics
for when you leave i've dug my hand into the ground
hooked inside my nails every little thing that we have found
they are still are pulsing warm, dripping wet from their conception
from seeing you read poems, to the time we watched Inception
I'm taking their umbilicals to wrap around my neck
to form a heavy chain to swing around the whole next
semester and in the next year a glowing crest to deter
any atrophy in the air
girl every little word
even crooked jagged ones
are tossed inside a trunk
to be hung from my tongue
even at the fork
your name is scrawled on the sign
and the footprints in the the dirt
are a walk of fame in my mind
I made a pledge when I woke up on this morning
to write a private note, aimed a chronicling this moment
in time, I didn't mean for it to be a song
but cool, this is something nice to hold while we are gone
(dear emanuel from january, things are about to get crazy)
hooked inside my nails every little thing that we have found
they are still are pulsing warm, dripping wet from their conception
from seeing you read poems, to the time we watched Inception
I'm taking their umbilicals to wrap around my neck
to form a heavy chain to swing around the whole next
semester and in the next year a glowing crest to deter
any atrophy in the air
girl every little word
even crooked jagged ones
are tossed inside a trunk
to be hung from my tongue
even at the fork
your name is scrawled on the sign
and the footprints in the the dirt
are a walk of fame in my mind
I made a pledge when I woke up on this morning
to write a private note, aimed a chronicling this moment
in time, I didn't mean for it to be a song
but cool, this is something nice to hold while we are gone
(dear emanuel from january, things are about to get crazy)

Some Thoughts
by Davey Dynamitei think dave anians is beautiful. he plays acoustic guitar, he makes punk that is earnest and brilliant and critical and simple in its purity and pure with its simplicity right right

this is my music with dave green. there's only an acoustic cover of "moth's wings,"up right now but i think that is enough joy for one bandcamp. as of right now. also there are beautiful tigers
