literature
such a strong word
that carries the weight
of all of history
when all i ever wanted
all i ever needed
all i could imagine
was her
her words
her music mind
caught in a book,
a yellow prison for lonely flies
voices in stone
voices in stone
voices in stone
carry what he never could
at least we try
at least we try
foster daughters de-cypher her mind
at least we try
at least we try
at least we try
boy took up all of your time
censored and objectified
at least we try
at least we try
foster daughters de-cypher her mind
censored and objectified

Solar Eyes

walkin' the line between crazy and fine
dissociate to pass the time
standing tall at 6 am
blinded by the light
a warm eclipse of my solar eyes
gonna be a long ride
walkin' alone between oblivion & home
sublimate and call it growth
standing tall at 6 am
blinded in the light
a warm eclipse of my solar eyes
gonna be a long ride
(guitar solo)
gonna be a long ride

collision of stellar minds
one for the books of all time
small hands hold quasar lattes
seen from galaxies far away
i am out of time
i can't leave you all behind
i am out of time
won't you rather stay in bed than go outside?
erosion of stellar minds
one for the books of all time
small hands hold quasar lattes
seen from galaxies far away
i am out of time
i can't leave you all behind
i am out of time
won't you rather stay in bed than go outside?
small hands hold quasar lattes
seen from galaxies far away
i am out of time
won't you rather stay in bed than go outside?
and i am out of time
i can't leave you all behind
i am out of time
won't you rather stay in bed than go outside?

in my darkest hour i see
something so large your eyes wouldn't believe
giant hands
giant hands reaching out to me
in my darkest hour i see
something so magnificent i couldn't conceive
all my fears and all my dreams
reflected back to me
all my pain and all my love
living in unitiy
getting ready for the big release
giant hands
giant hands reach out to catch me
catch me
in my darkest hour i see
something so magnificent i couldn't conceive
(something so magnificent) i couldn't conceive
all my fears and all my dreams reflected back to me
all my pain and all my love living in unity

Dirty Laundry Reveries
03:03
|
|||
|
pay no mind to the ghosts behind
the glass they tap,
they overlap my shadow
from a candle through my window
though they shout, strewn about
dead leaves on the ground, they float around
old clothes wrought among the rats below them
please forgive the nonsense
of my dirty laundry reveries
cats that climb my human eyes
like cherry pie,
or a promise like a dream from a summer
long forgotten
and when i find i'm going to die
erect a rosy trellis in a garden
for the children to run freely
please forgive the nonsense
of my dirty laundry reveries
(melodica solo)
when i die, my ghost and i,
like cats will climb the trellis
behind the glass we'll tap,
and you'll hear our laugh through your window
so please forgive the nonsense of all the inconvenient parts of me

Dying Daffodils

you found the curtains open
i can guess watcha saw
pulmonary subdivisions
asking baby what's wrong
when there's nothing left to do or say
call upon yourself to make a change
when there's nothing left to do or say
dying daffodils will pave the way
promise me you'll throw out his letters
cause he's a liar anyway
and don't you dare blame yourself
for his decisions that day
and it's so easy to hold onto hate
but you're so lucky you made your escape
when there's nothing left to do or say
dying daffodils will pave the way
you're so lucky you made your escape//you're very lucky

Valleys Crossed

what makes a man worth my time?
is it in grand gestures?
is it in the blood line?
come disarm my joy, my love with your old
one-two punch
i've made you proud but that's never enough
never enough
cause i can't seem to do anything you like
and i'm gonna lose my mind to you
one more time
and who's it all been for, the valleys crossed
the hills i climbed
if i'm gonna lose my mind to you
one more time
should i explain? do you deserve it?
keep punishing me cause i wasn't perfect
all your expectations i absorbed
am i so demanding asking for more?
asking for more
cause i can't seem to do anything you like
and i'm gonna lose my mind to you
one more time
and who's it all been for, the valleys crossed
the hills i climbed
if i'm gonna lose my mind to you
one more time
