[Verse] Lately I've been looking through mud Standing where I've always been Then you sent me a little message in blue And it said, "What's up?" And the mud It cleared right up, too Making a plan is harder than it looks I hold out rocks for you to take a look at them I like to think of everyone's names Floating and written above their heads I'll meet you in the middle seat Your cupboards are full of plates from the 24-hour place You told me things you told nobody else A U-Haul passes with some facts about an orchid In the RBC ATM line, I think of you and sterilе minerals In the water and outsidе the apartment you share with all your furniture Dinner in a can, and a hotel laptop screen reflected by another one Grid of a shopping cart, intersection welds, try to touch it Little Caesars to-go cup Sunwashed plastic garbage bin, blue now from the cornflower sun Handles like Madonna's nails, picking zits in home depot, and the tread in your shoes You're a fast tripper Petition on a rusted lamp, soft chorus of cellos Blocks out trucks with blackout windows Rabbits Looking Familiar Lysol smell of a scrubbed business Take my money and mean it, high-vis biker in an old Halloween mask Shoulder-to-shoulder resting SUVs I walk home from the movies 'Cause I don't have a car anymore At twenty-nine, I feel sick But I'm just getting started on my medicine And the lady in blue platform sandals Cracks the foam and her heels to match Takes a hose from the side of the house and waters her square inch of soil at 10:22 From sod to seed, Loveday Mushroom [Refrain] I've been texting I've been texting I've been texting I've been texting
