lyrics

These are the brake lights bruising the dark, making impressionistic arcs in time with your cigarette. These are the ways that you could’ve hurt me with absolute uncertainty, but you couldn’t let yourself do it. There’s nothing I could say that wouldn’t be lost in translation. (A burning car left in an empty field.) These memories of you and me come back from time to time in rhythms that have never really rhymed—because we’re misaligned. These are the gaps between the trees, intervals in the shape of shark teeth sinking into the horizon. This is the wind blown through your hair, placing a fractured rhythm there—strands in superposition. The drinks I’ve kissed, the deadlines I’ve missed, the things I can’t resist. “I miss you. I guess that I should.”¹ I want to hold you in my arms but you shiver away and are remade in the distance as something good. As something I misunderstood.

¹ "Raining in Baltimore," Counting Crows
