Soon I'll Be Gone
03:25
|
|||
|
Soon I'll be gone and you don't even know it
What's wrong may be right at least that's how I'm hoping
All the spaces that we made and all the times you made me wait
The hate I try to separate from the joy I had from being with you
Oh I wish you the best

Can't Decide
03:16
|
|||
|
It's not you that makes me go away every night
It's a cloud inside my head, gets me every time right at nine
On the nose
Does anybody know
Am I dead or are we all just different
All I want, its either not enough or I can't decide
I'd rather float around instead of following a guide blindly
Everything can change
Wait just one more day

In The Middle (demo)
03:00
|
|||
|
I might give up I might fall out or I might win
Its a bunch of nonsense the way they make a big mess while I'm trying
Say what you want tear everyone down rip it apart and toss it out out loud
I might forget how to write a sonnet or I might live
Rearranging problems
Its lonely on the bottom of every life
Go to a bar complain to your friends get in a car and do it all again
There's a fire at both ends
I'm stuck in the middle and falling in love with it

Empty
02:16
|

|
Where did you leave your worn bible your sworn survival is lost without a doubt
Under the sink you stand by for hours staring at the flowers thinking about yourself
What do you want with me I'm a bottle empty and your so damn thirsty

Honestly
03:40
|
|||
|
Honestly honestly I think that I think I can
Promise me the anxiety is all a magic sham
The pieces that happen next

Virus
02:48
|
|||
|
The worlds gone crazy with news of the virus
Nothing can save me the streets have gone quiet
If I go outside it might be the last time
Store shelves are empty the schools are closing
Some of my family think that I'm joking
The president denies what experts have advised
My work told me stay home all my dates are cancelled
When I called to reschedule all I heard was a dial tone
If weeks start to go by please ask if I'm alright

Nobody stays the same maybe we never change
What keeps us from wanting more
A window into your world
Crickets under the couch we always laughed about
Till ties couldn't hold no more
Sometimes I stay awake just to find I don't know you anymore

tall as trees
02:58
|
|||
|
Pour more wine while you can
Neon lights fading fast
Soon the evening will be gone
Tomorrow we'll be moving on
All my love in your hands
Every rose every dance
A promise and a lot to learn
A needle in the barn we burned
Tall as trees ride along
New Orleans in the fall
Water up above our knees
Magic in the salty breeze

Appalachia
03:31
|
|||
|
For as long as I can recall I've had a longing to be in the woods
On a mountainside out of the public eye solitary voluntarily mine
Every boundary disappears the livings loud and clear
my Appalachian paradise home in the laurel rhododendron and pine
if I can't stay with you i'll keep you in my mind
my Appalachia
The world wont slow down sometimes i feel like dropping out
but i'm a good man and i know they're hard to find
still i feel the despair that nobody cares that we're burning this planet alive
you got to see it while you can before its all private land

Voices Inside (demo)
03:11
|
|||
|
Where did I fall where do I stand where can I see the master plan
While everyone was wasted I had tasted the fruit on the tree
Haven't you heard the stories they tell the unspoken words of how the sky fell
Empty of meaning the windows are gleaming an all weekend sale
There's a bird on the wire with voices inside in the heat of the evening I don't want to hide
This feeling is lovely and on Sunday morning we'll go for a ride
I hear without ears I see without eyes I remember the moment I first came to life
Neil Young was singing a helpless feeling still spinning tonight

Sunday came and went she's on her way
I have said so long so my drinking
Same story with this in the end
I'm wondering if I'll ever see her again
Works keeps my working but it don't keep my mind off you
Ive been looking for someone to tell me something anything that's true
Like a good friend is hard to find and more than half the time they leave you
Ive been trying so hard just to make it through another day
Cause if nobody's home then there's nothing to make me stay
So I suppose I'll have a drink take some time think and ease my head
A good friend is hard to find and more than half the time they leave you
I hope you realize nothing gets any better with time
