A Long Drive Home
05:27

my own wistfulness, turned against me
i said don't want to go back, but still it takes me
how do i explain to myself, when i won't listen
how do i convince myself, through blurry vision
it's too hard to go back, so i leave it all behind
and when i'm old with scratched bones and weak eyes
i'll think of it, i'll think of it
as a long drive home...
my own hopes and fears turned against me
they treat me like a means to an end
my own heart! has turned against me
do i need to explain why???
do i have to wait until i'm worn
and close to dust
to know the feeling of rust
on my bare skin
can i keep myself between the lines
will i stay on the road
can i live to see what's beyond me
with tunnel vision?
it's too hard to go back, so i leave it all behind
and when i'm old with scratched bones and weak eyes
i'll think of it, i'll think of it
as a long drive home...

On A Spectrum

wanting more from wanting less
i confess it gets tiring
one step forward two steps back
you can say more saying nothing at all
Saw you cut the moon in half
In the dark I saw you walk past
What would you do if I told you we’re all hanging by a thread
All my friends are on a spectrum
All my friends are on a spectrum
What would you say
If I told you
They cant be categorized
seeing stars closing my eyes
i admit got faulty wiring
standing still blowing winds
don’t make sense but i’ll keep trying
All my friends are on a spectrum
All my friends are on a spectrum
What would you say
If I told you
They cannot be categorized

it's been so long
since you've gone
see you soon wasn't good enough for me
oh, my friend release me, somewhere along the way
then the surf it takes me, i'm all but washed away
i can see your face, staring back at me
like the blackness of space, i'm so empty
oh, my friend release me, somewhere along the way
oh, my friend release me
all this salt, it just eats at me
we get washed away
oh my friends release me, somewhere along the way
oh please friends release me, don't just float away
i get washed away, i get washed to sea

gave up the war long ago
i gave up meaning to know
needing to know
when the surf and i are one
tide is high and sea hits the sun
as i hold this ego down
i'm not an ocean
but can i become
drove my sword in my own side
now i have nothing left to hide
no reason to hide
sinking these ships anchored down
saving myself as i drown
as i hold this ego down
i'm not an ocean
but can i become
as I hold this ego down
brine fills it's eyes
water fills it's lungs
the ocean is what
the ocean is what it becomes
i'm not an ocean
but can i become

Like Sand

when you gonna come around
and fade me away
cuz every time you do
i get a little bit high
juggle me like Neptune
or one of your sandy moons
pale in the light i am
night time sight seeing sighing
when you gonna come around
and fade me away?
cuz every time you do
i get a little bit high
juggle me like i’m one of your
other lovers
lie to me, keep it right there
cuz baby i don’t wanna know
so lie to me
when you gonna come around
and fade me away?
you know i get a little high
said it would be ok
said i don’t mind waiting
oh bb you know it’s just one of those things
you can come around and to feel it
waiting oh
like sand in the hourglass
you flip me over and i keep going on
i feel like i’m upside down
and waiting like i always do
like sand in the glass
when you gonna come around
and fade me away
cuz every time you do
i get a little bit higher

Red Boy

i’ve always been my own worst enemy
the only thing standing in my way
and now it seems i’m always looking for
somewhere else to put the blame
i know it’s up to me
i know to be free
i’ve gotta let go
oh red boy
that is me
i don’t have time for negative energy
cuz happy thoughts they make the world go ‘round
and those who hate will do so anyway
just keep your joy and stand your ground
oh yeah oh
and i know not everyone is that strong
but even so you’ve got your heart to stand upon
gonna hold my head high
and hold my head high
oh red boy

So Low

so low, so low without you babe
so low, so low without you love
so low, so low without you bb
so low, so low without you girl
and what do they know about us
and what does that say about them
we're rising out of the dust, again
we're so doomed
we're so doomed
we're so doomed
and so soon.
just when you thought you'd made it through the wormhole!
you're lying on the floor, their knives are in your back
just when you thought you might just make it out whole!
they seem to never rest, standing on your chest
no care if you survive, but you're still alive
so low, so low without you babe
so low, so low without you love
so low, so low without you bb
so low, so low without you girl

Never Again

shakin', it down with you
i'm prayin', like a fool
take your time with it
and take it slow
you take your time with this
i'll be right here
you be right now
i was all i was
but that was back then
i was not enough
oh, never again
you're not takin', good care of you
you're breakin', my heart in two
take your time with it
and clear your mind
you take your time with this
i'll be right here
you be right now
i was all i was
but that was back then
i was not enough
oh, never again

Superfast Contrast

come and wander beside me
silver and black threads
encircling the clouds and ground
we can do anything
just let us be here
just let us wander there
come and run down the way with me
orange and yellow gifts
pouring into the earth, the soil
keep your eyes on love, we’ll breathe
look what we’ve made new
just let us be here
just let us wander there
let us wander
