folklore lyrics that speak to my soul:

cardigan:

but i knew you

dancin' in your levi's

drunk under a streetlight

but i knew you'd linger like a tattoo kiss

i knew you'd haunt all of my what-ifs

the smell of smoke would hang around this long

'cause i knew everything when i was young

i knew i'd curse you for the longest time

chasing shadows in the grocery line

i knew you'd miss me once the thrill expired

and you'd be standin' in my front porch light

and i knew you'd come back to me

the 1:

hey, yeah-yeah

persist and resist the temptation to ask you

if one thing had been different

would everything be different today?

the lakes:

take me to the lakes, where all the poets went to die

i don't belong, and my beloved, neither do you

those windermere peaks look like a perfect place to cry

i'm settin' off, but not without my muse

a red rose grew up out of ice frozen ground

with no one around to tweet it

while i bathe in cliffside pools with my calamitous love

and insurmountable grief

exile:

you're not my homeland anymore

so what am i defendin' now?

like you'd get your knuckles bloody for me

second, third, and hundredth chances

balancin' on breaking branches

those eyes add insult to injury

i'm not your problem anymore

so who am i offending now?

invisible string:

time, mystical time

cuttin' me open, then healin' me fine

were there clues i didn't see?

peace:

and you know that i'd

swing with you for the fences

sit with you in the trenches

my tears ricochet:

i didn't have it in myself to go with grace

'cause when i'd fight, you used to tell me i was brave

and if i'm dead to you why are you at the wake?

this is me trying:

i had the shiniest wheels, now they're rusting

i didn't know if you'd care if i came back

i have a lot of regrets about that

they told me all of my cages were mental

so i got wasted like all my potential

and my words shoot to kill when I'm mad

i have a lot of regrets about that

i was so ahead of the curve,

the curve became a sphere

fell behind all my classmates and i ended up here

pourin' out my heart to a stranger

and it's hard to be at a party

when i feel like an open wound

it's hard to be anywhere these days

when all i want is you

hoax:

stood on the cliffside

screaming, "give me a reason"

your faithless love's the only hoax

i believe in

betty:

i was walking home on broken cobblestones

just thinking of you when she pulled up

like a figment of my worst intentions

she said "james, get in, let's drive"

those days turned into nights

slept next to her but

i dreamt of you all summer long

epiphany:

crawling up the beaches now

sir, i think he's bleedin' out

and some things you just can't speak about

something med school did not cover

someone's daughter

someone's mother

holds your hand through plastic now

doc, i think she's crashin' out

and some things you just can't speak about

mad woman:

every time you call me crazy

i get more crazy

what about that?

and when you say i seem angry,

i get more angry

illicit affairs:

take the words for what they are

a dwindling, mercurial high

a drug that only worked

the first few hundred times

and you wanna scream

don't call me kid

don't call me baby

look at this godforsaken mess that you made me

you showed me colors you know

i can't see with anyone else

don't call me kid

don't call me baby

look at this idiotic fool that you made me

you taught me a secret language

i can't speak with anyone else

august:

but i can see us

lost in the memory

august slipped away into a moment in time

'cause it was never mine

and i can see us twisted in bedsheets

august sipped away

like a bottle of wine

'cause you were never mine, mine

seven:

and i've been meaning to tell you

i think your house is haunted

your dad is always mad and that must be why

and i think you should come live with

me and we can be pirates

then you won't have to cry

or hide in the closet

and just like a folk song

our love will be passed on

mirrorball:

hush

when no one is around, my dear

you'll find me on my tallest tiptoes

spinning in my highest heels, love

shining just for you

and they called off the circus

burned the disco down

when they sent home the horses

and the rodeo clowns

i'm still on that tightrope

i'm still trying everything to get you laughing at me

the last great american dynasty:

fifty years is a long time

holiday house sat quietly on that beach

free of women with madness

their men and bad habits,

and then it was bought by me

(i know they're not in order i'm sorry)

[w4ter-you-doing]

folklore is amazing but i also still hold Lover near and dear to my heart

[womanwithmadness]

& clandestine meetings & longing stares. . . .

[imissyoubutimisssparkling]

“I’m the mess that you wanted” vs “Look at this godforsaken mess that you made me.”
