I will travel through A pandemic for you And when I get you with me I want you naked with me In your bewitching pull With your hips to the moon You got me on a howling spree I just want you naked with me At an airport alone Your voice still rang strong Telling me to chill This had to be the deal All the could have beens And should have beens Had gone But I will travel through A pandemic for you And when I get you with me I want you naked with me In your bewitching pull With your hips to the moon You got me on a howling spree I just want you naked with me Beyond a daydream And more than memories Is an artisanal fate Shaped by stubborn air You’re art and soul You’re love and song To me But I will travel through A pandemic for you And when I get you with me I want you naked with me In your bewitching pull With your hips to the moon You got me on a howling spree I just want you naked with me

It was one foot and then the other The day I got out of bed Trimmed the calendar into order Bathed my vortex in the rain Had she left for good or for a while Was I to care either way There’s spray paint where there were caresses And stencils on her side of the bed Sprouts of good luck A thunderbolt exposed All the notes are pumping on a crescendo in this plot The worst hour of the hangover Is when I’m closest to the lord There’s a marathon of imagined dialogue Running into silence to ease the lungs Was I the right amount of hurtful To keep away what I wanted no more All the wrongs and rights vanish Because we’re humans once and then eternal dust Sprouts of good luck A thunderbolt exposed All you need is timing and time above all

Like the engine that flew At night in the nude Words are irrelevant folklore tug for two Pinned inside the canal Best place to frown I will be sorry But not ‘til the morning Any system is a ruse Ain’t friends with no shadows Ain’t son of no sun Swam in anger To be taught how to lose All I have is surrender So damn the rules Emerged little left of limbo With navigation songs About Constellations venting in exiled time zones Was served by hydraulic action Scooped the foam I will be sorry But not ‘til the morning Any system is a ruse Ain’t friends with no shadows Ain’t son of no sun Swam in anger To be taught how to lose All I have is surrender So damn the rules Beneath an image that drew Hours on the wound Hoped for therapy wished for a timid bruise Drowned, refused by the ground Any motion is a dance I will be sorry But not ‘til the morning Any system is a ruse Ain’t friends with no shadows Ain’t son of no sun Swam in anger To be taught how to lose All I have is surrender So damn the rules

I feel so essential baby Explorer credentials on Unsolicited Románticas venting Keep me close just keep me close I keep my love out I keep my love loud I keep my love loose I obsess like a Taurus Believe in the Walrus The sun and I in tune I’m belting the soundtrack Dreaming life back Singing about you Blasting them poems Painting them colors Cuddled the day’s boom Helped myself to the all by noon I feel so essential baby Letting free be free Dip your feet dip your penance Keep me close just keep me close Consulted the spirits I feel redeeming I feel the transient groove Gone like fashions Gone like actions Gone to ink the news Freeing sirens Freeing parades Fleeing before soon There’s glory in breathing Glory in weekends Glory in paying dues Helped myself to the all by noon

The night came to Find things to do In your celestial core In your terrestrial form I was settled in dreams Where you undressed for me A truth forgotten then reborn All roulette's tissues torn The times once wore The plight that came to wakes us all And we caressed roads Entwined in the fog As a lover's critique Relearning how to breathe Docile futures you teased Docile spree that comes to break us both It's a multi-universe fee Someone's pain is guaranteed You know that I want more I want you the most The most above all Like the night that comes to unwind us all Should anyone see you crying when you’re down Tell them you blame nobody but the times And new days that are coming Those new days that are coming Are better than the ones that went

It was a déjà vu I relived with you Infinite loops And assorted blues Anything to free Our trouble minds Thou our trouble hearts Were a choice Could you remember What we said, what we meant In a dimension Where you and I were growing old Growing old Dream in dreams Delicate sin Serene peaks At your feet Travel light Take your time We’ll get to here Somehow Could you remember What we said, what we meant In a dimension Where you and I were growing old Growing old

Try to live your truth Since it’s up to you What else can you do Somehow it all works out When you Protect the vibe Rely on those you love Take them where you go Just a lil of them brings joy That’s how we survive When you Protect the vibe The ways of the heart Frees you from your clouds In a place where one is found You’re with the right love When you Protect the vibe Gotta survive Gotta keep the vibe alive Be the keeper

Another day again The boiler room is a mess Since the house caught on fire I’m just way too tired I got a heart to give in place Of security and common sense When the roof falls on me All worries will disappeared ’Til Bushwick is done with me Here I am losing sleep
9.
In my hammock it all makes sense Thou indifferent the swing remains When I’m giving you my truth I appreciate your kindness, gentle you But how long is the waiting How long ’til the sea shares the tide I could paint countless symbols In the walls taunting time Saw a crack in the armor Saw us taking a chance In the middle of a delirium The calmness of the birds gives me life Take my shadow for a ride Take it where darkness tends to part Give me limits or give me none Mimic the ghost bury the owl But how long is the waiting How long ’til the sea shares the tide I could paint countless symbols In the walls taunting time Saw a crack in the armor Saw us taking a chance In the middle of a delirium The calmness of the birds gives me life

I never meant to leave you alone But it has come routinely A game which you’ve always won You break my spirit Be on your own Be your own teacher Don’t fear the fall You know how to reach me It’s also true that I’m crazy over you You got a lot to say And if it gets you nowhere Wither in that embrace Unintended glory Be on your own Be your own teacher Don’t fear the fall You know how to reach me It’s also true that I’m crazy over you Take from where you unfold A revolt on tradition Your thunderous lips will go on To alchemize your reasons Be on your own Be your own teacher Don’t fear the fall You know how to reach me It’s also true that I’m crazy over you

about

Danilo Parrales New York, New York

Songs are born while
I dance, attempting to reach you.
I paint my walls so they melt me into them a little bit slower.
I also wanna work with clowns in a circus downtown and tag along with them so I could learn to forget.
