all into the day
03:38
|
|||
all into the day in an awful hurry
ignore whatever they say and enjoy the journey
for all the mistakes i have made
have tamed and refined my wild ways
be bright enough to see it's a dim lit hallway
have a look through trees, they are not in the way
all of these things i'd like to be
more than enough for you and me
don't you be like that
killing time, living bad
i know the day is new
this battle cry was made for fools
and they want to phone it in
they want to dream again

cosmic danger
03:19
|
|||
goodnight children a cosmic danger has come
whispering answers to questions to ease your concern
feeling suspicious and empty with lessons to learn
keep a safe distance, surround me with vibrant fern
wait for tomorrow, tomorrow morning be heard
we'll all be forgiven and less than we were before
but i had my heart set
had my heart set on more
if you haven't lost yet
be prepared for the war
main street is empty, words are erased from the page
it's an endless rehearsal where i always feel out of place
a new day is coming but it just seems so far away
in all of your anger, kindness was all that you gave
you found it shocking the rest of the world's not the same
if that were to change you, it would be a terrible shame

sinking stone
03:06
|
|||
tell me i'm okay and alive in the waking world
died in the final thrill
tell me what to think, my mind is a mobile phone
i am a sinking stone
time just gets away
even at my best i just fall far behind
in this life of crime
never could play chess or memorize my lines
i'm pisces all the time
it's just that way i guess
falling backwards out the door
light across the floor
even if you don't have to say it
build a bridge to a new home
don't you steal my hope
you don’t have to say…

the real things
03:18
|
|||
these old wires don’t need shit to cause a campfire
sit beside the lamplight and conspire
these old thoughts can creep in and lay the haywire
journal all the ways you are tired
light up turning in
lay down in sin
insinuate the real thing
insist upon the real things
these old nerves can belittle your belonging
no one’s really strong anyway
these old friends know the way to keep the fire bright
burn away the chords till you’re right

bonfire & cake
02:59
|
|||
now we're so far from flight, butterflies in a frame
one day we might, light everything
staying up late, for bonfire and cake
pray to the saints, help is on the way
oh well
be the one that will
tear the day apart
for you’re only a part of the world
now give bread to the trees, outside of your door
a garden at ease, long into the war
winter of dreams, ending in the spring
an old color scheme, to help keep you warm

a stubborn ballad
03:45
|
|||
a million chimneys cough out a stubborn ballad
with every note the stars get harder to see
it’s winter, it’s midnight, and black has turned to blue now
the whispers and wonders are pregnant and full of belief
the grass is covered and swelling around us
as we lay on our backs and try not to breathe
time as we know it has slowed to a wrinkle
the sparrows and judges are sleeping in heavenly peace

weatherman
03:33
|
|||
another lost holiday is gone
another town is burning down, that's all
i know i've been fooled by the weatherman
ice in these veins, who says that you can't complain
on a nice day
politicize the possibilities, it's all the same
so many ways to violate the brain
i don't talk to you that much but i keep you on my mind
pull the weed out by the roots and leave the dead behind
full of hope and privileged luck
i still believe in love
that's cliché, or maybe not
it's the only thing i've got
to keep from nodding off
and that's enough

bird
03:06
|
|||
lay softly down, dead leaves are blowing all over this town
i drive for miles, i have a job, i am always for sale
i change myself with each new day, i pray to be anyone else
stay safe and sound, it's gone to hell, i am a bird on the shelf
for all that is telling and insightfully bleak
i'm feeling better than i have in weeks
i am like you, in case you can't tell, i keep it all to myself
i stayed awake for days and days, i tried to figure it out
sweeter than honeycomb, i still want to know what you know
mother earth don't bother me, i just want a place to call home

let's get bent
04:09
|
|||
i’ll give you the key to me, it’s a simple thing
the diagnostic criteria is met
did you plan for behaviors, did you even plan for anything?
all the things that i said that i wish you could forget
and i won’t be over your head tonight
let’s get specific, let’s get bent tonight
i can go from zero to sixty eventually
you never really know what will end up in the net
it happens more than you think it will, even on your deathbed
rattling around like the marbles in your head

wilderness
02:44
|
|||
somewhere out in the atmosphere
a full wolf moon when the sky is clear
i'm finally here for the first time in years
the rain poured down for a couple of days
washed away all my blue blooded things
i begged for change, now i wish they'd stay the same
honey wait, you wonderful thing
i've been asleep, waiting for spring to come
i've memorized the celestial sphere
this universe where we drop our fears and run
the wilderness is a passing phase
the plans you make are subject to change
it was familiar once, but now they've rearranged
i've monetized on my chameleon ways
been carried away by the radio waves
i've heard enough and it all sounds the same
|

peace be with you now you're on again
you've always been, well i don't know
keep it with you on a summer day
you're half-awake in the afternoon
oh i want to know
is there nothing more worth fighting for?
oh even though
there's nothing more worth fighting for
peace be with you, are you running out?
was your path about to break you down?
every plastic heart was full of holes
and i suppose it was way too soon
peace be with you, are you almost home?
i’ve always known, you’ve always been
something different, an original
unpredictable, now and then
