Saw you first preaching Pixel Revolt
in a dusty West Texas bar
Young and restless, so hard to avoid
especially with those eyes of yours
Effervescent light, your glimmer held me
as time checked out our rubber band
As I stared back I still remember hopeing
you'd give breath to the truth on your lips

Old tries collide with Blue Jay brainstorm
Old lines collide with Holly
Old signs collide with Blue Jay brainstorm
Old lives collide with Holly

Sarah's farm turned to Santa Fe
as you thought you were a dormant bloom
My cursive, my Texas Lantana
I've been flying with the Blue Jays for you
In fifty years, as youth jeers
will time force us to let it go
A future fear, a present clear
love, calm, and ebbing

Resonate me away

And only when it's at it's darkest
The clearing comes when alone
I see you in searing red, white bright borders
A striking flame against the snow

All this effort, these foundations of time
If it makes you ease your pain then go ahead
Collide with those pillars they are yours to destroy
My anxious pain, my gift to you Holly

I'll let the waves scoop us up, tear us down
Like we're just dancing on the town and breaking a few laws along the way
As the vultures circle in there's so much warmth where to begin
But dream of when we're older all over again

Watching your face in my hands as they weather
I'm not a hero but I will try
To turn your burden into feathers
And if you need to go ahead and collide
