lyrics

you tripped in
appearing so
out of work

feeling rings
through my hands
from the phone

deer they hang
ankles thin
from the hunt

shunned by cold
motherhood
closed the door

and in a decade i’ll come and find you
inside of nothing and what have you brought home
we’ll reach perfection in other bodies
oceans and cities the rain it has not stopped
a different distance in two weeks time now
and never enter these clothes we’ll pine in grey

eaten whole
twelve years old
was it so

transporting
peacefully
in a storm

bleeding chores
we switched roles
i was there

and in a decade i’ll come and find you
inside of nothing and what have you brought home
we’ll reach perfection in other bodies
oceans and cities the rain it has not stopped
a different distance in two weeks time now
and never enter these clothes we’ll pine in grey

lock up so i don’t see you again
copy a key and keep three so sweetly
and ever leisurely you’ll call my name
only in dreams i’ve kept it this clean

and in a decade i’ll come and find you
inside of nothing and what have you brought home
we’ll reach perfection in other bodies
oceans and cities the rain it has not stopped
a different distance in two weeks time now
and never enter these clothes we’ll pine in grey

Prathloons Chicago, Illinois

Prathloons is the Chicago-based songwriting project of Collin Dall. His songwriting layers poetic, melancholic lyrics atop glacial arrangements on guitar, drums, piano, & violin. The songs reminisce on the mess of getting old, the woes of life-long relationships, & accepting that the meaning of our time on earth is simpler than we think: to love and listen, and to hope for the same in return. ... more
