ROCKET SHIP

Head full of leaves
So the birds get my softness
Everything I drag is a drag on someone
Goldplated pheromones
And the phone’s always broken
I clock the mist and clack the bones
You’re right on time as usual,
And the rain wraps our arguments

In someone else’s rocket ship
You’ve always had a ways to go to where we click
Typewriter’s telling me the most
Unusual is not usual,
And beautiful’s not beautiful at all

Head full of wires
Throw my back out to a softness
All the strings I pull today are havoc to someone
Hard-hearted photobombs,
But somehow I’m not pictured
I take your hand and black the dark
Always late as usual,
But the air is heavy smolder

In someone else’s rocket ship
We’ve always craned our cranes and watched our islands drift
Typewriter’s telling me the most
Unusual is not usual
And beautiful’s not beautiful at all

What’s beautiful is not usual
And what’s usual is not beautiful at all
