Shit I saw on the way 2 the store
Always out shopping always needing more
Seems like 4ever since I didn't need a thing
I'm light as a feather when I'm hungry from the pain
Don't feel like forgiving don't need 2 4get
The green light is ending & the red is regret
Some frosting for the comfort & some icing 4 the cake
My birthday's the wrong day & sleep is a lake
No more bridges
No more road
Just lots of plastics
The grass needs mowed
So what did I see on my way 2 the store
Everything nothing & less of the more
I'm buying up gas & burning down heaven
It's all making sense at sixes & sevens

In Just A Little While

Hey, I am
Hey, I go away
Wait, I'm sand
Wait, I'll flow away
In just a little while
In just a little while
2day I stand
2day I know I'll fall
1 more &
2 more & I crawl
In just a little while
In just a little while
Say I am
Say I'm not no more
Pray & then
Wait 4 open doors
That close
With the wind
The shore
So close
The end
Hey, I am
Hey, I go away
Wading sand
Wait, I'll flow away
In just a little while

Far Away
03:20

A 2nd dream
All I need
2 get me through
Another day
Unfortunate
A victory
A 2nd sea
Far away
Time has won
The day is done
Forwarding
2 the nite
All this loss
Empty cost
R we not
Far away
Changing
In my time
Rearranging
All my life
Cold in
Holding
Time breaks free
From thought
A 2nd dream
Is all I need
2 get me through
Another day
Unfortunate
A victory
Lost at sea
& far away

Sing Of Flames
02:16
|
|||
|
There's a road & a highway & a
Bridge & all it's full of hogs
There's a highway that's built 2 fall
Into an ocean blue
There's a building that's built of wood
& stone & bricks & bricks & wood &
There's some business that haunts inside
The empty space above
There's a car with some wheels & tires
Spinning round they go 2 town
& they spit & vomit out only tracks
Then follow back again
There's an eyesore that sells some food &
clothes & gas & soda/snacks &
There's an eyesore that's burning down let's
Dance & sing of flames

Evening Light
00:57
|
|||
|
Snow
Where'd it go
Rain
It's an evening light
Fold
With the tide
Gold
It's a past mistake
Moon
Pair of noons
Soon
It's an evening light

Away
03:07
|
|||
|
Leave me alone
I'm running away
Leave me alone
Don't want 2day
Outside of the lines
I'm falling in two
Leave me alone
There is no truth
A beautiful sky
Poisoned 2 blue
A wreath with a why
Is outside too
Leave me alone
I'm running away
Leave me alone
Don't want this 2day
Always
Nothing
All day
Wearing on me
Always
This noon
All day
It comes too soon

Awkward With Evil
01:03
|
|||
|
Fly
I don't need 2 know the sky
I'm counting all of the whys
& it's awkward with evil
Wont
Counting backwards till I don't
Showing off 2 move the on's
& it's awkward with evil
Lighten up
Break into a paper cup
Learning less is not enough
It's always awkward with evil

Word/Frame
01:26
|
|||
|
Change a word
Build up
Hey, it hurts
This gift U give
So absurd
Enough
Say a word
They're only sounds
Change a frame
Hold on
Then explain
This new 2 last
Play the game
4give
Wade the pain
Then drown in it

A Wounded Lie
03:05
|
|||
|
Hey, sunny day
Come & break me down
Hey, sunny day
1 more over
This shadows speaks
Of a hollow me
This shadow takes me
Back homeward
A wounded lie
A wounded lie
Wait 4 the dawn
2 break freedom
Wait 4 the dawn
2 go onwards
The silence of the noise
That breaks me
The silence taking
Me down in again
A wounded lie
A wounded lie
Rain falling down
Rain in the sound
Changing nothing
Sunlight
All nite
Only
Always
Hey, sunny day
Come & break me down
Hey, sunny day
A wounded lie
Once more

Turn Away
02:50
|
|||
|
Changing slowly
So long & empty
4ward & back 2 the end
Only & always
Feels like I'm falling
Fixtures of dawn in a line
I'm gonna turn away
I'm gonna turn away
Sometimes not always
Fortunate tall trees
Glass lies that slip into the fog
Trying & flying
Down 2 a high need
Something that only turns 2 dust
I'm gonna turn away
I'm gonna turn away
Only
4ward
Back down
2 begin
Shadow
When I go
Back up
2 fall within

The Gift
01:46
|
|||
|
Life is a Roman colosseum
Success is getting eaten by a lion
All your friends & family will cheer
& crowds will all be high 5'n
It's all a big gift, don't U know
2 be tossed in a river 2 drown
Swimmers R winners & so
If U sink there's no chance 4 the crown
So dance 4 your supper & sing
4 a seat at the table 2day
Cos the day after that U will be
The main course in a feast that's made of clay
Cos life is a gift don't U see
Oh, so brief & full of misery
As U struggle & fight till U die
They'll sell tickets at half price
So, bye bye

Letting It Go
01:52
|
|||
|
Daylight came it's all too late
Midnite rain is on its way
Oh, I'm letting it go
All the angels fall so low
Shadows dance in overflow
Ah, I'm needing 2 know
Life can not be in too far
Why has burned a shooting star
Oh, I'm letting it go
1 more day won't make it less
Giving up & turning west
Ah, I see the sun set
