The Speed Limit's Too Slow and Walking Won't Get Me Home

So my mind was starting to feel like this last time we spoke
and this too
but then it was time
(this picture is really only meant to exhibit my deep yearning for mens accessories)
to go back to tennessee
and we rode bikes around the lake
and I felt like me again
(which actually looks a little more like this)
even when I almost got eaten by coyotes (pronounced ky-oats in the south)
while hiking on a night like this

and the gang was back together like old times
Italic
and then i got to know you so well i could imagine the sound of your voice in my mind
and i was like.... wait...like, what? holy shit.
oh
K
I Get It.
and then you stared at me and i didn't say anything
and we had one last hoorah
and then it was back to
where i sleep like this
and going outside feels like this
but it won't be too long before it warms up
and new york in the spring consists of a lot of this
and since
i will stick this out
so that i can keep being better than you shiny hookers who think you can keep up
and quit creeping on mine
Bitches and Mother Fuckers
anyway, sorry for that side note but it's been a long time coming...

moving on,
once it's warm i will fly home again. maybe for
a long time, this time.
and i'll immerse myself into a life that i've always wanted but never let myself have
and there will be lovin'
and cross country truckin'
and livin' in tents with you.

P.S. if i have any advice for anyone who's feelin' it on this cold january night,
it's Avett Brothers, Avett Brothers, Avett Brothers!

This song's a thank you for all of the soft heart, crazy eyed nashville songbirds who pressed up against bar floors and howled in hollow air with me over break.
i'll be back and we'll meet in a cave at the end of a long windy street where the trees meet.

I Am A Smoking Gun

That just went off inside of your head.
Making you go crazy,
Luring you back for more,
with bait,
or just baited breath...
hmmmm...
nope, not really. just kinda wish i felt like that right now.
feel more like this
but in precisely three days i will be at home
where things like this exist
and this
and feelings like this can be taken care of
and my head will feel like this
instead of this

There Must Be Somthin' Goin' 'Round

The City Treats Us Well
we bite and it bites back,
but who doesn't like a little nibble.

It is finally fucking freezing though,
which makes me want to do this

and finals feel kind of like this
and i'm certainly going to spend the next two weeks looking like this
and try to remember that when i do
,
but never in terms of cigarettes.
chain smoke kids, chain smoke your lil' lungs off.

But it's not so bad because at the end of the tunnel,
this is the light that awaits me
baby's flyin' back on down south for a whole god damn month
so i can remember that
and this is all i want to do for four whole weeks
(well not exactly)
i'd like to try and make out with all of these people too
and pretend that this
feels like this
mainly by drinking my weight in whiskey
and falling asleep with you at the end of the night.

In the present tense though,
I was in an intensely awkward indie-southern nostalgic mood today,
and this was my playlist.
just in case you feel like dipping your toes in my internal soundtrack and wigglin' round.
and i've listened to this sound five times a day for the past week.
and that's all she wrote folks
