1.
What’s a moment, stolen, to the years worn out? What’s a heartbeat, frozen, to a life thought out? Enough of your reasons. Enough of what you know. Enough of your answers. Now say what you show. I’m holding back the answers I need you to know.
2.
In the sudden, silent, sadness, of feeling’s conceit, You’ll be a witness, You have an interest, A mind to set to speech. Be silent, then set it to words. To have a mind to speak. An affect, effective. A sign that we have to speak. To have a mind to speak.
3.
The vague designs of safety, That box, embitter, ensnare me. A thought too fast to speak, Will it slow? I aim too hard to see, What it shows me. For every move withstood, withstanding, Our lives are steps that take.
4.
Wear A Name 03:23
Wear a name, born of place. The worst waste of a life you’d see. Bear with the pain, Outlive the fear, Of sighs that long to sing. So be the answer, So break the image, So bear the traces, Let the sighs become song.
5.
So say, all that there’s left to say. All that you could not place. With the eloquence of falling apart. For a word, unworn. For a sign, unshown. We’re scattered islands of a shattered idea. And this its silence, become resolve to speak Who’ll take the parts for much more than the sum? A shattered idea. A shattered idea.
6.
Sleep, my life’s honest sigh. A dream to stop where you lie. A dream to sleep. Arrested time, who takes tonight, to weigh the world’s fate, to dream for always?
7.
To exalt the haunted feelings, fool, Is to exhaust, To play the ghost, To a loss assumed. A past present habit, As old as is new. What future could stand it? To live with the past, with the ghosts it assumes. No more haunted hopes. No more ghosts assumed.
8.
For Solatium 06:09
A thought that settles it all. A timeworn hard truth, falls. The thinking through, a lie, That aspires to…. As sum, sign, as fraction. Be costed, be fractured. For solatium. A salve to save, for want of answers. A song to break the frame, of fracture’s greed. You’ll stay, static. I’ll keep, moving.
9.
How to meet them through the years? How to speak what they thought? No more abject thoughts on the words just said, Only joys thrown through time. No more abject denials. Hearts bound to bone, our blood to breathe, Given a lifetime, our thrown thoughts should meet. Could I make a harder test? Enough to break a heart today? A detail of a thrown out thought, Enough to think the world away. As if it’s to sing. As if it’s to say.
10.
Of the weary debts betrayed us, Our better thoughts will break them. Find the words that break, The eloquence, Of that fated sigh. Deep breaths, see straight through the eloquence of the pain. Not a claim. No default. But a break.
