he smells real
like pinaud and smoke
a great deal
on some toys that broke
the taste of your own blood
to say that you’re an addict
and then you bit your tongue
can’t say that you’re an addict
do years mend?
I think I get you, man
hit send
happy birthday, man
happy birthday, man

I know you back from my home town
but I forget your name
you can’t smell the garden state
from way up here in maine
now I can taste the water here
it’s different than my own
baby steps with full grown legs
and hours worth of roads
you are not the same
baby that they weighed
you are not the same
baby that they made

sweet girl
keep kicking
like some damn freak
my face
feels tired
from this laughing
sweet mud
keep sticking
to my bare feet
she says nasty
but I don't agree

hey what happened, man?
these days you’re vanishing
hey how are you, man?
okay or struggling?
big brain you were running on fumes
it soaked through you
a fresh pack of the quality brand
that still soothes you
hey what happened, man?
these days you’re vanishing
hey there goes the dirty dog
with some metal sticking in his paw
he don’t need you to try to fix the wound
buddy boy you came and went
and if you’d rather be an open end
then that’s alright with me
yea that’s alright with me

I saw you almost catch him.
I saw him as he splashed and
his tiny little back fin
slipped away
I saw you on the rock edge
but I couldn’t hear what you said
you smiled as you leaned and
gave a wave
taking our sweet time
forget about the week ahead
taking our own time
it’s perfect then it ends
I saw you with your eyes up
guessing at the size of
shadows as they rise and
end the day.
better get to moving
groceries and two things
we said we’d get to doing
by today

yea I know
it's not that great but
damn it here I am
damn it here I am
I'm probably over
thinking it
on and on again
on and on again
pretty things
I don’t need them
no I don’t need them
but dirty jeans
I won’t need them
I guess I won’t need them
