as still as a stone
both brittle and firm
at home in the dirt
frozen in the snow
burrowed away

Missing Voice
02:52

when is it going to start?
the makeup the dress up the game
lovers in a hiccup
a baby on the way
pay cuts for the fuck ups
who risked it for the vein
sounds lame when you bring it up
ill take a blame
can i play the part of the missing voice again?
when is it going to stop
the makeup the dress up the game
bottles don't get picked up
if you never end the day
can i play the part of the missing voice again?

Way It Burnt
03:20
|

understanding the grey spots
like respecting a window
as disciplined as a candle
or like a long day at work
to breathe in the oxygen
you melt and you burn
i'm missing your phone voice
the sound of your boots pace
and hearing your camera shutter
your busy smoke alarm
and eating noodles with spoons
picking up free things just for something to do
you liked mosaic glass
well i found another
i'm braving the rainstorm
by holding your daylight
like a candle to my eye
it used to be warmer
why do i miss the way it burnt?

Annie's Cove

i've been watching the airplanes pass
from a big grass field off an old dirt path
thinking about leaving
with the rest of the pack
for now i lay still in the buffalograss
when the sky falls and bleeds into the lake
i walk down to annie's cove
to just sit on the bank and think
i've been wondering where the egrets have flown
far from annie's cove
where i skip stones through the winter alone

Wondering Why
04:47

walk the dog it needs to stretch
go outside and take a breath
can i come along?
any reason to leave the place
is what i look for everyday
can i come along?
sometimes i dress up like a dancer
let my hair down and dance around in here
you wanna come along?
tell me your mind have no fear
i want to listen and disappear
can i come along?
but maybe this time
we could forget all the lies
and all the wondering why
walk the dog it needs to stretch
grab a coat and cigarette
can i come along?
i'm not smoking but i'd share it
if you offer i can't help it
can i come along?
eat some food it's what we need
but cooking it's my favorite thing
you wanna come along?
i've heard you singing in my dreams
i listen when i fall asleep
can i come along?
but maybe this time
we could forget all the lies
and all the wondering why

This One's On Me
01:50

welcome to the grapevine
you must've heard of us before
we've always been far above the best
a sense of wonder and happiness
another zephyr dream headed west?
running from a rocky mountain loneliness
i guess
well i heard it through the grapevine
what? was this not what you were hoping to find?
it's just something we've all got to go through i guess
a lust for dreams and happiness
i digress
but maybe your folks really knew what was best...
but welcome to the grapevine
can i get you glass of emptiness?
you should've listened when they told you the rest
but you couldn't wait to leave the nest
were you feeling stuck and desperate?
this one's on me because i get it

Dior Ad

saw a dior ad use a dead man's song
nobody asked so nothings wrong
while the band is broke on unsold discs
or nowadays year end playlists
who wants them?
to get good is to watch it done
but the watching part just ain't that fun
my biggest fan has always been my mom
even though she's never heard a song
like i want it

only happy songs playing morning long
only happy songs
work for what you love
the thing you don't give up

Backwards Thing
05:55
|
|||
|
there must be a connection between the message
and the friends you've made along the way
a connection
the lessons in the messes along the way
everyone found someone while you were busy looking for yourself
everyone found someone
you were busy looking at yourself
it's a backwards thing that we've made up and i always thought i'd see you again
it's a backwards thing that we've made up
i thought i'd hear from you again
it's a backwards thing...
