Louisiana 04:55
Lately, latent lackluster luxuries are it for me. It seems the oceans come between kindred islands. Volcanic activity, A "South-Pathetic" tragedy of legs that forgot how to stand still. Just stand still and BREATHE. Lately, listening leads me to believe there's more to this story that -- You're just not letting me BREATHE. (Just BREATHE.) Looking through it, living in the life that I -- Should've said softer, Shouldn't shoot shapeshifts, But I left leaving little things to listen to later when I last left Louisiana. ~ Just breathe. I'm right here. Would you look at me? You don't have to run anymore.

Like Wolves 05:03
Forgotten fruit-borne tree, As I think of you, do you think of me? Father, fast asleep- As I see you, do you see me? Winds of Fall, temperatures of treason. We're wounded(,) fawn(ing), fucked for the change of seasons. Prolific byway, A potpourri of places where, like wolves, we wept. Our bodies in labyrinth repose, Like seas, we rose. Like wolves, we wept.

Moving 02:39
Pretentious pro-activity means what to me? Tiled pathway cracks, green grows between. From where does your satisfaction stem? I don't think I've said anything That justifies this end or the means. From where does your satisfaction stem? You said, "Think of all the things we've learned!" "You taught me all there is to know about running away from everything and all the best ways to get high!" I'm so sorry. But moving on.

Passage 05:44
The decision to leave this behind (these people, this place) is one better off not made by me. I lost track of time somewhere in your mind. The way back, now, I can't see. I can't see! I didn't ask for this. Any of this. But if you're offering, I'll accept the gift. Rose sky, true-eyed night becomes morning fog, heavy on the treetops.

Wonder 03:57
I wish when winter came, we wouldn't wait for someone else to blame, And I, I wish what wasn't there would've wandered somewhere into fair truth. And if we continue, I want to thank you-- One more: And I wish that words would waste your time so I could find someway out of here while you wondered. While you wonder. I wish within this wit there weren't worms of spite that tainted it, but I, I can't apologize for wanting ways to whet my melting mind. I guess I'll act my age: 'It's just a phase, right.' Not gonna die, but it wouldn't hurt to try. Where was I, And I'd like to take this time to thank you for showing me all it really takes to be-- I finally see-- The exit. ...And I'm under while you wonder. And I'm under while you wonder.

Centipede 07:04
This entity creeps up on me (sweetly), Warm peripheral voice of morality. This entity never leaves me. A frame of faultless boundary, from forearms in between. Perpetually bound and peripherally seen. The Water shows us how, it takes us with the sea. The Water slows us down, and that's alright with me. I know you didn't particularly ask me, please excuse my informality, but when Brother Moses passed in the land near Jericho, do you think Pharaoh would've begged him not to go? "Ooo," said the serotonin in my head, "when the rain comes, we're leaving you for dead." The sirens sing their songs beneath my bed. Oh god, just please don't take my friends. I, I think its high time that I, That I decide: where it is that I'm gonna stay, And what it is that I'm tryna say. With my face in my hands: "Where will I land?" And, "If not lost, then what am I?" What am I?

Proceed- to the valley, shaded by mountains behind. I cannot see through dust and tears- proceed. Proceed! The wind will carry my ashes.
