Red Pen 05:09
Waiting on the side of the road Withering beside the road, my future passed Man with the gun said go Man with the gun said race and I came last Watching the tumbleweeds Watching the dead things speed, I hold fast Waiting for the clock to chime Withering before my time, I won’t last I spoke too soon What’s worse is I Never stood up until my feet were cold. My legs are numb My toes are tired They won’t take me anywhere in this world Waiting on the edge of the earth Waiting in the mocking dirt, roll around Man with the red pen sighs Brings it between my eyes, marks me down Man with the silver watch Says my time is up, get gone now Waiting with the words in my lungs Swore I wouldn’t bite my tongue, but I just breathe out I stood too soon What’s worse is I Never spoke up until my thoughts were cold My toes are numb My words are tired They won’t take me anywhere in this world

Drip drop rain falls on pains Wash away the weather Only grey drip drop fade Syncopated water

Satellite 04:01
Drifting off into space, the satellite rears its empty head Subtlety and machinery, together in one place You'll never guess who it made famous in the end Because all of that's as insignificant as needles in a haystack Trailing off into space, the satellite opens its tired eyes And becomes human again, but doesn't have to breathe this time You'll never guess what it made: amends within itself that day Because all of that was forgotten once it saw its destination Spiraling around the bend, the satellite comes to a rest Looks to see where it is, and deliberately draws a breath You'll never guess what then: the satellite decided to die It said if I can live with that, then I can die and be content
