I am comfort
I am not comfort
I'm wrapped in a comforter
And frozen in the woods
I know
I don't know
I'd like to say
I've known
A bed
Like a cerulean
Civilian

You gave me a book
I told you I've read it
So you gave me a look
I turned my back and closed my eyes
Cause I don't want to see you
I don't want to be near you
Apple fall down
Into my open hands
I almost wanna share
You gave me a rook
After I threw the chessboard away
I don't want you to see me, like this
I don't want you to be near me
I can't tell you why
All I do is lie
What's this feeling that I have
Coiling up like a snake
I don't wanna hurt you
Don't go away
Stay
You ask me why you should
And I can't answer

Granola Ghost

I've been alone for too long
My hair is turning grey on its own
I pick up a granola bar
Spread out on the floor, in pieces
Hey little granola, nobody loves you like I do
Hey little granola, nobody loves you at all
Hey little granola, nobody loves you like I do
Hey little granola, nobody loves you at all
I think if we were honest people
I think we all would nod our heads in agreement
I think when we are falling
We're falling for those things that ignore us
Hey little granola, nobody loves you like I do
Hey little granola, nobody loves you at all
Hey little granola, nobody loves you like I do
Hey little granola, nobody loves you at all
Hey little granola, what do I want so badly?
Hey little granola, what am I doing here?
Hey little granola, can you even see me?
Hey little granola, there's something you should know

Pillow Talk

All the come on come on
Buzzy buzzy buzzy
Stretch it out in the dark
Meant to say something
About the dinner table
I bought for our home yesterday
We spill our pancake batter
Our house takes off in flight
In rapture when we land
Our doorway floods with honey
Put everything on risers
The bees are working too hard
I grab a sponge & rub it against your back
You were smuggling a painting by some cold genius
Who died in a field of snow before I met you, remember?
We've gone everywhere in our conversation
And now it is time for peace and quiet
I plant this garden to remind me of you
and your needs, and my needs
I grow a beard
And crawl up the chimney
To check the flowers
I wonder if they could be
A field of snow
A blanket over my eyes
You say it's time for sleep
I woke up eating dinner
To you saying this
I touch the canvas
With the backside of my spoon
And tell you that I love you

Questions For Winners

Reading Plato by the pool
Asking questions of myself
And arguing with the space where you should be
Taking pictures of myself in the backseat of my car
Before I go to the grocery store
Where I'll pretend you're right around the corner
Oh I should know, I should know better
I guess this is goodbye?

Thinking Behind Curtains

You were running
On the sidewalk by my mother's house
You said you were empty
I said I was looking for anyone at all
Who said that I'm the one?
I don't have my sticks and bones
The water's too high to float home
Who said I'm going home?
We close our eyes and count down
The light turns dark then lights up
Time is only wasted
Thinking behind curtains

Everything's the same
At the end of the day
Walking through a door
To find another door
I've seen you before
At least that's what I think
But I can't be sure
Not everything's the same
Step by step we fall
Moving in place I think we've found a home
I ask you what you think
Of all these people around
And as if you were me
You don't say a thing
I wonder how you feel
If it's how I do
Like I've known you my whole life
If I've ever known you
Step by step we fall
Moving in place I think we've found a home

Grandpa Ant

I pour water on your head
To let you know that I'm behind you
And if I didn't pour water on your head
I don't understand how you could trust me
I don't understand how you'd put up with me
I don't understand what you would see in me
I can't understand anything you've said
I push your food down the disposal
I know it's bad for the plumbing
But if I didn't get rid of all your food
I know you would just eat it
And you wouldn't even share
With the ants that are comin' around your house
Isn't it their house?
Isn't it their house too now?
wouldn't it be nice if you let them know?
When I was 23
I didn't want to turn 24
I started acting out in childish ways
I wouldn't let go of my youthfulness
As it slipped away from my hips and knees
Every day I'd complain to somebody
About my back
And how it hurts
I feel like an ant carrying the weight
Of a world that I've lost touch with
And it's hard cause I'm hungry
And it's hard cause I'm thirsty
All I want is some food
All I want is some water
And it gets heavier heavier
heavier heavier
It gets heavier heavier
heavier heavier
Don't I deserve
Don't I deserve a pile of dirt
Someplace I can call my own?
