Everyday you want what you cannot see
But for the record things seemed pretty bleak
Oh bleak wraps around me
Oblique nothing to see
Oh bleak wraps around me
Looking out on whatever the darkness would be
When the running lights of my eyes clicked off
I know I'm not alone
But I'm scared
You know that I'm alone
And you laugh at me

Helplessly At Peace
01:46
|
|||
|
And it's fine I just wish, weren't so shy all the time
My words slip and crack up stuck between two floors
I felt so green with you
Place a smile to me I'm so helplessly at peace
So helplessly at peace, so helplessly at peace
And I felt so green with you

Felt So Important

You let me down again
Now I'm left to fend for myself
And all my life I've wandered
When I'm with you
Feel so important
When I'm with you
I felt so certain
When I go out at night
Just to clear my mind
And I just let the car drive
Wherever it goes it's good for me
When I'm with you
I feel important
when I'm with you
I feel so certain (ooo ooo ooo ooo)
When I'm with you
Feels so important
When I'm with you
I felt so certain (ooo ooo ooo)

Forever A Guess
02:41
|
|||
|
Well, some things take forever I guess
I guess
The mysteries of love are best unknown
And it's a shadow in the desert
Comes when your'e tired
Though it seems late it's always right
Save your eyes don't know what to look for
To look for
The question is not can I be loved
It's can I love
And it's a shadow in the desert
Comes when I'm tired
Though it seems late I still have time
I still have time
So they say
I still have time
So they say
To understand what this means

What Happiness Is This?
03:07
|
|||
|
In a hazy, hot afternoon dream
In someplace that I'd never been before
There's a cozy place to watch the days grow tall
Oh really must've slept too long
Oh really must've slept too long again
Oh what happiness is this?
I don't know
Oh stopped thinking it'd happen
But I'm wrong
And Oh what happiness is this?
I don't know
And oh I'm smiling
ain't joy strange?
Little cup of tea, shadows trim the lawn
this is what I read about as a child
Such a calm cool night as jasmine fills the air
This is the place that I want to be
Oh what happiness is this?
I don't know
Oh stopped thinking it'd happen
But I'm wrong
And Oh what happiness is this?
I don't know
And oh I'm smiling
ain't joy strange?
Ain't joy strange?

Late Spring
04:07

As long as there's a profit to be made
You know somebody's gonna do it
Oh will it always be this way?
A competition for the upper-hand
You know I'd rather lose it
Than be a part of this dark circus
And have we really come so far?
Ooo I'm just not so sure now
Ooo I'm just not so sure now
Listen, listen
Somebody's knocking
Who could it be at this hour?
Come in, come in
Where have you been hiding?
Oh compassion let it in now
Come in, come in
Sounds like destruction
Tell me why do we give in?
Come on, come on
Give up all this fighting
Mercy'll end this division
Come in, come in
Where have you been hiding?
Oh compassion let it in now
Come in, come in (Ahhh)
Come in, come in (Ahhh)

Out in the heat talking with an opal girl
I knew it must be more but I kept cool
Climbed up the ladder you lowered
How can I thank you?
I'l plant you a whole room of flowers
And let you name them all
Every flower needs one more name from you
Rolling thunder came a-pounding on heaven's door
We took our cover, smiling, laughing now I feel so sure
Climbed up the ladder you lowered
How can I thank you?
I'l plant you a whole room of flowers
And let you name them all
Every flower needs one more name from you
When your head hurts I could read to you telepathically
Beneath an orange moon I could see planets aligning
Climbed up the ladder you lowered
How can I thank you?
I'l plant you a whole room of flowers
And let you name them all
Every flower needs one more name from you

Opening Trap Doors
01:55
|
|||
|
I don't think I've met you before
I've made it this far on my own
So won't you let me go?
I'd like to keep it this way
I'd like to keep a distance from your love
I keep opening trap doors cuz I heard
Every new door's an opportunity for me but I'm falling
Into the arms of a chair and I'm secure cuz it
s always there for me
|

Reaching through a country overgrown
To find this room's become a bit too much
The canopies I used to love
now just feel like live in tombs
Stretching out for hours in the grass
Praying that I might withstand the test
Now I really have to go
Before the Earth holds me too close

Coming Up So Rosy
02:16
|
|||
|
Everything is what I like to call this feeling
Rushing over me in colors overwhelming
But they're welcome
Everything is coming up so rosy
I won't let time tell me how I should be
I'm all in I'm tired of hiding
From the power
Everything is coming up so rosy

There's Still Death
02:59
|
|||
|
I don't want for anything at all anymore
There's still death but you know a star's born every hour
Everyday has a purpose and you'll find it
Venus its there listening to me talk, oh such patience
The years pass and bring change but the artist will remain
Every day has a worth behind it

Overlooking The River
02:58
|
|||
|
You were wrapping yourself up in the covers
Hidden away from the world
Sitting on the edge overlooking the river
You're in my arms
You wore night better than the dark had ever
Kissed in the dusk silhouettes
Sitting on the edge overlooking the river
I'm in your eyes

Little Fiction
02:19
|
|||
|
Walk through the door of your mind
Tiptoe like a mouse cross the organ of a midnight mass
Where you slept in the cool of the pew's worn down wood
You dreamt of a home with such wonderful doors that would take you wherever you want
Drift out in the deep green pond
Bobbing posies dance in your eyes
Won't you dream on little fiction your write in your free time
You woke with a start heard them playing your song on the air
It's just a dream
