lyrics

yr on yr surfboard floating down Providence canal
Yu said to take a car was cliched & banal

Obstacles are fleeting
Either Hamlet or Ophelia
Depending on the day & the mood

It’s unclear how ironic yu are being
All of yr tobacco is Eastern European

I can’t be persuaded
Not even at my most vulnerable
To follow yu down the stream

Start up slow but then yr gone
We talk a lot then I’m withdrawn
First it’s dusk & then its dawn
I can’t quit tell what drugs yr on

A new tattoo on yr cheekbone
Yu call me up, our lungs explode
We’d hang out more but I’m always on the road
& when I’m home yr usually stoned

yr on yr surfboard floating down Providence river
Like soap dissolving on yr torso in the shower

I just feel defeated
As yu paddle away say, ‘nice to know ya’
How can I sit here like a stone ?

Yu say goodbye w/ this giddy sort of bluntness
Like we’ve let decades passively float past us

I can’t let myself feel jaded
Not even in this helpless moment
Where I’m watching yu paddle down the stream
