There's a mummy in my spare room
and it's knocking on the window, is it you?
You can reach me at this number,
I rarely sleep, I'm going east, I'm leaving you behind.
I'm building my own city
and there's gonna be tax against you.
Alright, so I admit it's pretty shitty of me
to hold back from the truth, I never wanted to.
But I never had the nerve to ever stick to my word
So I'm leaving you alone. I'm staying home.
There's some dogs in my basement
and their holding me for ransom, where are you?
I'm calling you, oh, that's right--
you're in Jamaica and I'm still in Michigan
and we're both acting like our lives are so grand.
But they're not, at least for me.
They always tell you that the truth can set you free.
So I admit, it's pretty shitty of me to exaggerate like this,
but here you come walking down the staircase,
there you go making that face when you see I'm dog-sitting.
I was just dog-sitting! Ha!
All that time I spent with the mummy
and all that talk of my own city was the truth,
at least I thought so?
But I never had the nerve to ever stick to my word,
and I can't leave you alone and I can't stand being home.
I can't leave you alone.

People I've Met

lately I can't help thinking that I'm still sixteen
and time just slipped away from me,
that I will open my eyes and be in my bed
and all these people who I've met
and whom I love are just dreams
reoccurring so vividly. If only it could be.
count me in if you're leaving.
there's no one here and I've stopped believing
that I can hold out my hands and be gifted with gold,
but they're empty and they're clenching the dirt
at my knees, begging please for you to finish me.
