Portland

Portland

We always say we’ll go to Portland

Maybe today we can’t afford it

But I’ll save my pennies quick

Recalled

Your car is always getting recalled

And never picking up when we call

But I know this luck won’t stick

Everything feels heavy right now

But my two feet are steady on the ground

Set it down, I can hold it

Future pebbles are present boulders

It’s a moment, not forever

We’ll make it through together

Interviews

Jobs that always seem to want you

‘Til you make it to the last two

And they choose the other name

Buckets

In your hall collecting droplets

Seven calls, no one’s fixed it

So you pray it doesn’t rain

Everything feels heavy right now

But my two feet are steady on the ground

Set it down, I can hold it

Future pebbles are present boulders

It’s a moment, not forever

We’ll make it through together

Even if I have to

Carry you ‘til my knees buckle

Hold your hand with bloody knuckles

If it takes all night I promise I won’t leave

Rub your back until your eyes close

Keep the secrets no one else knows

And if seasons change I’ll be whatever you need

And you’ll do the same for me

So Portland

What if we head there in the morning?

Everything else is less important

Than the time we won’t get back

‘Cause one day, we’ll count the Polaroids not money

Only remembering the best days and everything we

Had before we had to set it down

It’s a moment

Not forever

We’ll make it through together
