The Label

Restless love, or it’s something else

Feel the dust settle on your mouth

The clay that forms inside your chest

A labored sticky sound

Breathing through to notice all

The pathways on the ground

And the water

All gray

On an angry lake

A windy day

All the clouds are on the label

And try again

Come inside, it’s an inside time

Come to want someone coming by

‘Cause everything will catch your eye walking through the night

Glowing rose, you said you know how plants absorb the light

And it opens a need

What you’re searching for

You’ll never see

All the stars

Are on the label

And try again

I’m asking you this question

‘Cause I already know my answer

Reminds me of some twisted invitation

To a world with silent hopes, never spoken

Circle track on a neon lawn

Running faster than you’ve been taught

You’re terrified to let it be the dream you didn’t want

Now’s the time you must decide to change

Or just move on

And the heartbreak, the sky

And the audience

The kiss goodbye

“Oh my god” is on the label

And try again

All your time is on the label

And try again

All your tries are on the label

And try again
