Are my old ways gone?
Did I make light of perilous wrongs?
Only a fool would keep raising hell over things outside his hands.
And my heroes fall to ashes, while the only thing that ever works in me carries on.
Is there a "new you" still?
Do you reach for the phone as a joke?
Have you settled down from carrying on?
(for those ones you lost from back then, on...)
You say the root's got you while you've just held it, too...
but my will to change is rotten wood.
I don't want to wait to die for fatherhood.

Sunlight grows, early in the morning.
Sometimes I get cold in the arms of our story.
I'm just weak, it's all on you now.
You are strong, it's all on you now.
My relief, it's all on you now.
I believe it's all on you now.

You were looking for the older days, never in yourself
And all unknown to me, you went down for the count
You bet on this to bring you something else for a change
And feeling close to me isn't all the same
I'm not around, you already know
Don't lay it down for walking on your toes
Talking to me yesterday, not really yourself
Hey you pretty thing, maybe you could tell
You look the way you did before, a little more inspired
Talk straight to me, alright? I'm all ears tonight
I'm not a sound, you already know
I'll listen to you now, strange as this goes

Moving Day

Strangely this occasion blew away before I knew it
You drive below 35mph, slow, with the trunk half-closed
Slow, steady hold on your sofa
It's older than you know, with a red stain
Moving day
The days were sweet with you,
Swimming in the words we used to
Did you know it would close soon?
I'm alone, like when I met you

When the Summer is Over
01:43
|

When the summer is over, I guess we'll get over it.
If we were always the same, we'd belong in a portrait frame,
and never change.
Wherein low-light and dead leaves, just let go of fleeting things.
There, back in December, I can remember my friends doing fine.

Hard to Sing
03:26
|

It ghosts on by,
It'll blank my mind.
I guess my natural eyes won't hold still.
I laugh and cry.
Somedays, forget to smile.
It's true that throwing away my eye helps me see--
Someone's either there or they're not, giving it all they've got.
If all I want is to receive, I'll be hard to please.
My friends are such a good help, there to hold me up straight.
It's easy to lose yourself in the middle of a cold day,
but those things are starting to change.
It's hard to say all that we mean.
Sometimes the moment sings just fine.
No use to complain,
or to loathe the rain.
We are here all the same, in common grace.
We are either there or we're not, giving it all we've got.
If all I want is to be seen, no wonder it's hard to sing.

Perfect Lander Halfpipe
03:19
|

I can see the sun, blister up the low-light
A perfect lander halfpipe
Let's go make a song
You got on your feet, let's go to the movies
Lullaby to move me
I'm awkward as you know
Do you feel anything unreal in this at all?
I could feel a tug, something else on your mind
Silence in the grapevine
I couldn't sing along
You left it up to me
Assimilation new scene
You can try to move me
I'm moving as you know
Do you feel anything unreal in this at all?
I can't stick the landing with you every time

Shy Brushfire

My old bedside table
Seventy fables written in ink
Take back the memory
of all that I owed you
Somedays I recall the time you cried
Though, you don't this night
Survey the splendor the last days of winter
Draw me like sunlight draws the rain
Shy like a brushfire, an intimate lampside reveals a corner when you're afraid

You're Around Me
02:56
|
|||
Even when I'm hanging out,
Even when I'm upside down,
You're around me.
Even in a second guess,
Though I may be in distress,
You're around me.
In all I lack, in all I need,
Whether I talk or I sing,
You're around me.
You never leave me.
