Neverstop
02:30

|
That didn't change a lot
World's already strange enough
Sometimes I put makeup on
Sometime I want to take it off
But that's asking a lot and I don't got much
I was always strung out when you would call
It was six o'clock
Sleeping on a train of thought
Sometimes I want to make it stop
But that would be playing God
And I don't want to play with God
That's asking a lot and I don't got much
If it were up to me we would keep coming true and it would never stop
If it were up to me we would keep coming true and it would never stop

Damn

Damn
You should really see yourself more often
But I can't
When the mirror is awful
Oh whatcha gonna do now
I got a hold on you
Damn
Maybe I should lick my wounds less often
Makes me want to be alone
You're breathing real softly
I don't want to wake you up
But I just became a man is it good enough
I miss the way you hold me
I never even loved myself that much
Damn
You don't even know these hands or what they want
Yeah
Lately your eyes look like coffins
Oh whatcha gonna do now?
I got a hold on you
Damn
Maybe I should lick my wounds more often
You're breathing real softly
I don't want to wake you up
But I just became a man is it good enough
I miss the way you hold me
I should learn to love myself that much

Hydrogen
04:11
|
|||
|
Jump off the plane and float down easy love
No one's gonna beam you up
And you'll have nothing to reach or touch
Are you torn up, are you worn out much?
You've got a song like a hydrogen bomb
Plummeting down down to your home
Sing me a song like a hydrogen bomb
You're singing it wrong for all I know
It's in the way your weaknesses show
Just like everyone I know
It's not the height it's the endless fall
I thought you were gonna let me know
How I'd stand up and I'd walk out to the coast
Cast a feeling, catch a notion, be alone
Deep in the woods, deep as I could
Just so it would not haunt me
Canyons at night, valleys at night
Alone in a world that keeps you lonely
Beaming with light, endless supplies
Baby I died inside you
Beaches at night, beaches at night
With no moon to cry to
Beaches at night, beaches at night
With no moon to cry to
Beaches at night, beaches at night
With no moon to cry to
Just like everybody
Just like everyone
Just like hydrogen

Albatross
04:21
|
|||
|
All of this water's gonna wash me away
Let's find us some shelter, escape from the rain
Tell me what's changed and what's stayed the same
I've been calling and calling and calling your name
Make me a drifter
Make me an albatross
Make the ocean it crosses
You're the west coast
You're the growing up
Haven't I grown enough?
Whatever it is
Just take it from me
Take it from me
We never had time
It just burned out
Well I hope that you're fine, that you're fine
That you find out
Drifting away while you stare at the shoreline
The heart is a bass drum, it beats inside your mind
Fight it or feed it or do what the sea did
It took what it touched 'till that high tide receded
And it's still going out, it's still going out
It's still going out
Make me a drifter
Make me an albatross
Make me the ocean it crosses
Whatever it is
Just take it from me
Take it from me
We never have time
We just burn down
But things will be fine, we'll be fine
We'll all find out

Met You Now
02:51
|
|||
|
You put a crack in my favorite guitar
I don't care about that I just wonder where you are
And if you think about me when you're alone in your care
Like I think about you while I'm driving in mine
I'm walking the path and I'm riding the route
There's a hole in my head and there's rain coming down
But there's birds in the sky and there's seeds in the ground
And I wish that I had met you now
You put a crack in my favorite guitar
But it's better than singing to myself in the hard
Or wishing I was where you are
I turned twenty five and I learned how to howl
All alone to myself and to throw in the towel
I wish that I had met you now
I turned twenty five, I've I've doing just fine
I can look in the mirror without losing my mind
Without losing my mind
I'm walking the path and I'm riding the route
With a hole in my head, with the rain coming down
But there's eggs in the nests in the trees in the ground
And I wish that I had met you now

Great White Plains
03:22
|
|||
|
Where you gonna to run to now
After all the love runs out
Aren't you worn
You must be tired and torn and burned out from the fire
Holding on the flames get higher
Take me to the great white plains to die
I don't want to hear the sirens
I've heard that death is an island
Isolated, I'm forced to fight it
Where you gonna to run to now
And who's going to comfort you and how, how, how
It's funny how we keep alive those who we know are meant to die
The body breaks but you can try
Aren't you worn
You must be tired and torn and burned out from the fire
Holding on the flames get higher
Who can thrive in asylums
Sanitized, I'm forced to try it
Maybe life is the island, death's a collective
Simple when you find it
Where am I gonna run to now
And who's going to comfort me and how, how, how
Take me to the great white plains to die
I don't want to hear the sirens
I've heard that death is an island
Isolated, I'm forced to fight it
Maybe life is the island
Maybe life is the island

Broken
05:09

|
I don't want to know anything
I just want to sit around and get by bye baby
What's there to know that's not letting you go
Go carry your stone up the mountain
I'll be on fire you'll breathe in the ocean
Beat on my chest like it could open up
You light me on fire why do I feel frozen
I wanted to love but I made me a liar and lie to myself all the time
I wanted a choice but I got desire
You set me on fire
I saw the city of love I saw the lights in the night
I saw your nakedness fly over the valley
I heard the sound of my chest cracking open
Could you love me if I stayed broken but bring it alive
Bring it alive
I don't want to know anything
I just want to sit around and get by bye baby
What's there to know that's not letting you go
Go carry your stone up the mountain
I'll be on fire you'll be in the ocean
Beat on my chest like it could open up
You light me on fire why do I feel frozen
I wanted to love but I made me a liar and lie to myself all the time
I wanted a choice but I got desire
You set me on fire
I saw the city of love I saw the nights in the light
I saw your craziness climb out of the valley
I heard the sound of my chest cracking open
Could you love me if I stayed broken but bring it alive
Bring it alive

Turning Over
04:20
|

|
Life's not to long when the brass notes cue ya
Awakens you strong with the world's hallelujah
How did you know I wanna do that to ya?
But I've forgotten how
Strong cuz you fight it, you close your eyes tighter
But it won't slow down, in a way I've tried it
You can dig your own grave and try to live inside it okay
But I felt your hands on my back
This morning when I turned sober
Yeah I felt your hands on my back
This morning when I turned over
So I kept turning over
So I kept turning over
The potion's too strong that they brewed to confuse you
But life's not too long when the song flows through you
How did you know I want to do that to you
But I've forgotten how
I want to be the song you're singing in the morning
When you're waking up stoned and wondering where you're going
I can smell chemicals slowly decomposing away
But I felt your hands on my back
This morning when I turned sober
Yeah I felt your hands on my back
This morning when I turned over
So I kept turning over
So I kept turning over

Heavy Lifting

Hey old friend
It's been a long time
From time to time
You enter my mind
I have dreams
In the night time
I look back
To my old life
Where'd you go
Where you going
I don't know
Think I'm done knowing
I am dogs barking, leaves in the garden
The song in my heart that keeps on humming
Creek in the valley that keeps on running
When there's been no rain and the summer's coming
Will you be my reminder to keep on loving
When there's sadness on my brain And I can't feel nothing
Hey old friend
Beg your pardon
I've been seeking only shade
From this side of the garden
I'm still young and afraid
Of how the heart can harden
How the mind can be a cave
That you wander on and on in
I am dogs barking, leaves in the garden
The song in my heart that keeps on humming
Creek in the valley that keeps on running
When there's been no rain and the summer's coming
Will you be my reminder to keep on loving
When there's sadness on my brain And I can't feel nothing
Hey old friend
Since we were children
The weight of the load it
Keeps on building
Weight of the load it
Keeps on shifting
Would you come home for some
Heavy lifting

Don't Let Me Go
02:17
|
|||
|
I had a dream last night
I was five years old sitting in your lap
We talked and hugged and cried and laughed about it
Sometimes I sit around and think of all of the things that you did for me
Do you ever sit around and think of all of the things that you do
Do you ever sit around and watch the past like it's a brand new movie
Don't let me go
Don't let me go
Don't let me go
Don't let me go
