Awe At All Angles

(album: Crux - 2019)

I am not adornments joined on new walls
I am torn muscle, I am budding bruise
The good pain while the deeper hurt
Are these truths
I am not a bridge
No I am not two ends
Not two ends that meet to make one

I am
White water, white water, white water
I am
I am awe, awe at all angles

Oh, I am not held hands
I'm not making plans
No, I'm not your man
I'm a goddamn conduit
Girl, I'm piss and vinegar

I am
White water, white water, white water
I am
I am awe, awe at all angles
Awe at all angles, awe
Awe at all angles, awe
Awe at all angles

Courting over dinner
And a bottle of wine
I said, "You look real pretty
And your haircut's nice"
For Christ's sake, this is not living
It's killing time
My body's in the cage
But I'm in the sky

I am
White water, white water, white water
I am
I am awe, awe at all angles
Awe at all angles, awe
Awe at all angles, awe
Awe at all angles, yeah
Awe at all angles
Awe at all angles
Awe at all angles
