Good Lies
04:38
|

you wouldn’t wanna know the truth
if it rained down right on top of you
you think you know a day in their shoes
but you still have nothing to lose
an unhealthy obsession with reusables,
or ‘how i almost saved the world’
if you lack the courage to buy groceries
let the proxies put you at ease
these are the good lies we tell
weren’t so hard to sell
Yes, we yearn to live
and rationalize
prefer my entertainment on demand
under my control and my command
if i wanted to hear these thoughts at night
then I wouldn’t even need a fan
A righteous wind will always blow
in a new bloom’s ever-present glow
these are the good lies we tell
weren’t so hard to sell
Yes we yearn to live
and rationalize
to know is to be aware
and fear is effortless
but we can be so malleable
and things can wash away

Light Beam

Light beam, flying down
Come and meet me on the ground
Light beam, cutting through
Color waves and radiation
Impermanence keeps us hanging on
Shining through a dream
Would I know, it’s you?
I’m gonna fly, fly away
Through centuries to Germany
Light beam, shooting through
All our sorrows and our fear
Impermanence keeps us hanging on
Shining through a dream
Would I know, it’s you?

Our Fight
03:22
|

i wanna know what it’s like
to take your words to heart
before everything else just falls apart
before it all falls apart
so I hideaway
and turn another page
some things never change
so this must be..
singing softly,
“just give me one thing that I can hold on to”
but in the end
there's always one more thing I know I could’ve done
so I hideaway
and turn another page
some things never change
so this must be..
but we sang “thats your right!”
so this must be our fight

The Seagull
04:55
|

yesterday
i did see the sun
when it hit the wing of a squawking bird
on the limb of an oak on the cemetery trail
that’s the truth of it
everything is trembling and swirling fast around me
but the center cannot hold
certainly
there’s different types of love
that I couldn’t apprehend until I looked in the eyes
of a southern dog
that’s the truth of it
all the love that’s trembling and swirling fast around me
but the center cannot hold
the ocean
of people I’ll never know
and yea we are the world but did we make the better day
that we promised you
that’s the truth of it
everything is trembling and swirling fast around us
but the center cannot hold
when at last
the smoke has cleared
And the moon has flown
the seagull follows
a flowered trail
what she sees,
her colony
just her own
just her home

Night Sky
04:01
|

walking home alone, another wasted night
I feel my bones as they shiver with fright
I promise to change in the morning light
I swear I will change by tomorrow night
i feel at home in the night sky
nothing but fear, just you and i
don’t wanna change, i don’t wanna try
stay here with you, my night sky
return your first call, you just wanted a ride
I should’ve known, it happens every time
I promise to change in the morning light
I swear I can change by tomorrow night
i feel at home in the night sky
nothing but fear, just you and i
don’t wanna change, i don’t wanna try
stay here with you, my night sky

1000 Starlings
05:17
|
|||
the sea and sky and silence
I must have fallen
into the middle space
no, this can’t be the end
we’ll move our bodies
in an empty street again
in that dream
I saw 1000 starlings in tune
and in my heart
I can see there’s still hope in you
the light behind the cloud
it hits our voices
we’re pushing through again
we made a nameless force
to save just one life
is to save everything
and in that dream
I saw 1000 starlings in tune
and in my heart
I can see there’s still hope in you
