lyrics

i keep the time we spent
tattooed on my arm in the
shape of a
nutrition facts label, like you're healthy for me,
or like you're going to give me
an ancient headache,
primal and rhythmic and turning on a dime like
the way the wheels turned on a dime like
the time we spun out
into the dirt beside the highway
or the times we got high
and tossed the tv off the roof
and watched the ground ripple like
the dirt turn and turn and turn into
the cracking screen and the
surface of a pond that you dove into
as a kid to chase after
the frogs found in the chlorine
tab carriers at the side of your swimming pool
back on long island
the princess frogs kissing like
kapitalism and running and screaming
and beating their legs on their chests like
an ancient headache,
primal and rhythmic and
i am not an astronaut and i am not an astronaut and
i am not an astronaut but i will watch the
whole wide world within my head and
watch it beat its legs on its chest and
then collapse into itself
like a bottle of milk,
nutrition label lapsing into
itself.
