Laramie

We got caught in Laramie

Snowstorm closed down I-80

We got lushed with strangers at the Spike

Threw pink brake light out into the night

Useless diamond

The vacant city gleams

Sparkling highways empty ‘cept for me

Stillborn Summer, a cold reality

Warm waves, plastic sunshine fills me

All alone with my strip mall memories

Chasing the chills I felt when I was eighteen

Both in need of rescue

So who saves whom?

In your car had “I Guess We’re Done” duels

I’ll do the Kev and you can do the Charles

We were both in need of rescue

So who saved whom?

Derealization

Half a decade on

A house show in Caldwell

Forward 13 months

The innocence ended when I got the call

Your street's just a place it has no memory at all
