Blinding

I can feel my face
Going to waste
I won't be handsome forever
I'll age at a steady pace
Death won't wait
I'll be battered and withered
The moments pass by me
And we don't make love
It's true and it's blinding
And I'm not in love with you
Gonna overflow
Wonder if you know
Or even remember
Why I was low then
Lying in the road
Sleeping in my clothes
In that sordid weather
The moments pass by me
And we don't make love
It's true and it's blinding
And I'm not in love with you

Sleep Street
01:51
|
|||
|
The one in the middle I know
That's cold September rain
Absent from you
A silent need
The one thing that I'll own
If I ever make it home
Woke up when doves sang above me
Been slept under that gingko tree
Now I stay keeping on my feet
Better than sleeping in the street

Yearn
02:42
|
|||
|
Can't let your body break me down if it's not here
Can't feel the sunlight on the ground without its fear
And I can't
So I yearn for you by me when no one else is
Burn for it but you have someone else to turn
Someone else to turn
I've learned easy with goodbyes
Folded arms and desert eyes
But honesty is holy
Are you ghosting on me?
How won't I wake in morning?
Are you ghosting on me now?

Spit
02:21
|
|||
|
Four leaf clover
Spits over
My pent up grave
What will it take
For me to fall in love again?
For me to feel at home again?

Solutions
02:11
|
|||
|
Saw in your eye that you were lurking
A full three miles beneath your surface
You were gone and I felt foolish
Gets hard to believe in real solutions
Hard to imagine my life ending any other way
Hard to envision a happy older me
When I feel dumb, when I feel foolish
Gets hard to believe in other solutions

Sunrise
01:23
|
|||
|
It's in my legs now
It's in my heart now
It's in the air now
It's in my heart now
Open up your hands
Face another way

Tendency
03:03
|
|||
|
I move slow
Without my body when I lay
I won't know
Unless you tell it to me straight
I won't go
Until you tell me not to leave
That don't show
Much like a mother lion I
Recognize the tendency
To fall in love with my friends
The thought tied a knot in my brain
And bounced it around 'til it bled when
I realized it might be
Only in my head
Realized it might be
Only in my head
I've been doing well
Alone for a long time
I've been doing well
Alone for a long time
I've been alone
For a long time
I'm doing well
Recognize the tendency
To fall in love with my friends
Curse all dependency
And crawl alone into bed when
I realize it might be
Only in my head
Realize it might be
Only in my head

Summon
03:51
|
|||
|
If someone asked today
I'd be inclined to stay
'Cause every other day
I live in a new bedroom
Urine on my legs
From pissing my life away
All you had to say
Is, "I've been feeling lonely too"
Julia's honey colored eyes
Summon, but not enough to sway me
It's easier to live alone
Back stroke, life boat
Every time your light grows
Barely

Because We Can
03:02
|
|||
|
Synthesize all I've seen
Into a needlessly violent dream
Roll him in the asphalt 'til he's brown
Take her milk and drive it into town
Because we can
The distance between want and need
Drilled a thousand mile gap in me
What to say when my own family
Talks like they cannot see
The victims?

Hell W I T H I N
02:52
|
|||
|
You feel like a friend I've known
A mattress on a dusty road
And I've been on this journey 'lone
So hell with it
I'll lay
Said hell with it
I'll lay
The honey in my aching throat
Turns to the water 'round a sinking boat
The space between the words you wrote
Reads, "Hell within"
Why stay?
There's hell within
Why stay?

Land and a Partner
04:20
|
|||
|
Craggy bluff on water where I lay
Slipstream in a musty rubber plane
Stomach vibrates in eight part harmony
Do your eyes do that to everyone they meet?
Times like this
I wander wide-eyed, calm and selfish sun
Aligned and clipped
And cutting at the sudden urge to run
Well lit house and a healthy garden
Must I take my love to the grave?
Weeks made of long days spent farming
Long nights spent wide awake
I'll be better when I find somebody new
I am in awe
At the beauty of the world
And the beauty of the people
Who come and go
Never really leaving
Or returning
To the same place
Or the same people
Or the same beauty twice
I hope to see you again
I'll always need a friend
