little things Lyrics by Strange Philosophies

the display case

2024

In my studio apartment
That you helped me move in
I put up all the pictures
Of all my closest friends
They helped me move the couch up
They helped me with the bed
You helped me build a shelf with
The manual unread
Your fingers on the grooves
I handed you the screw
Our hands against the same beam
We fumbled round til noon
Surprisingly intimate
The little things we do
Last autumn I got sick and
I spent a week in bed
She came into my room and
Placed her hand on my head
She listened to me reading
James Baldwin late at night
We fought over the blanket and
It all felt strangely right
To just rot all day
With someone else who stays
And makes the things that get me down
Become things I can take
Surprisingly precious
The little things at stake
Such little things can carry
A weary soul so far
They carry me back home for
Nine hours in the car
They push me through the airport
They even make me fly
Maybe at this rate they
Could carry me through life
The thought of love
Is just enough
It may drive you crazy
But it drives you somewhere, huh?
Surprisingly intimate
The little things she does
Remembering the morning
When we walked on the pier
She laid her head upon my lap
And broke out in tears
Some days the grief was gentle
And other days so fierce
Reminded me that love is just
The art of sharing fears
These anxieties
They carry with me
The heavy weight that grows so light
With all these little things
To circle and play
With insecurities
Make the things so vulnerable
Become things we embrace
When strength isn't enough
I know I'm not so tough
You all show me the virtue
In being peaceful like a dove
Surprisingly precious
The people we all love
