Give It Up
02:45
|

Lay it down beside me
How can it not remind me
I followed this so blindly
And is it now behind me?
I try to take the picture
My hands stuck in the mixture
Will this remain a fixture?
I never had a system
I give it up to you now
But I’d never say it out loud
You can take these words from my mouth
Build a meaning from the background

Cave
03:58
|

Put my head in a hole
Stick a knife in my skull
Hold my breath as it pulls me under
Bite my teeth in the cold
About to leave when it folds
I won’t ever grow old in summer
I will wait for all this time
I will paint this on my mind
In a graveyard shine a light
In a cave is where I hide
Spin around til I stop
Get dizzy till I drop
Lose my life to a clock
That binds me
Wringing out my rough hands
Sing aloud as I dance
Please let go of the glass
That confines me
And I saw it as it comes
And the air burns up our lungs
It’s a weight I cannot move
What will I do?

Tall Tree
02:57
|

I gave up my secrets
I made up my meanings
I came out through the mud
I’ll break up in the flood
I climb to a tall tree
Reminder for all to see
I’ve tried not to keep falling
So I’ve been stuck just stalling
I pull the cord from the wall
Throw my feet down the hall
I’ll run as far as I can
I’ll never take another chance
I’ll never take another chance
I’ll never take another chance
I’ll never make any more plans
I’ll never take another chance
I’ll never go back to the dance
I’ll never take another chance

Stuck
05:37
|

It won’t add up
Safety won’t come
Grew fast, gone past
My back won’t last
I plant some seeds
Few leaves I’ve seen
It’s all on me
I can’t be everything
Bright side fades out
Smothered with doubt
Less give, more take
Car with no brakes
Reach for a hand
Rise up and stand
It’s not there yet
We all need it
Is it something I’ll keep dreaming of?
Will that day I wait for ever come?
All I find is my feet deep in mud
Will I ever, never feel this stuck?

King
03:57
|
|||
I’ve forgotten, I know
I feel lost in the snow
And my hands are so cold
Will I keep growing old?
Didn’t say a lot
I lost the plot
Until it comes
The setting sun
I know you warned me
I know you know
And if does
It never starts
Just leave me broken
Leave me apart
The air will come
The ice will sink
I’ll float away
Left with nothing
I’ll see again
In the sun of spring
And I don’t ever
Feel like a king

Flip

You leave, but not for long
I breathe through constricted lungs
Heartbeat, a tender song
Mislead my life along
Lift my head up to the sun
I think of the things I’ve done
I am not the only one
And if I ever come back down
I could turn this boat around
My feet now are on the ground
You leave but not for long
I heed the warnings I lean on
Asleep with morning still to come
I dream and watch it all go wrong
And I can’t take it all too much
And I’m afraid I’m losing touch
I hide the shame when I succumb
My mind will break from what’s been done
Saw what I fear the most
Haunt my eyes with future ghosts
That won’t appear when I had thought
I spun the web, and then was caught

Clementine

I want to say
But I look away
I dug this grave
Buried my strength
See it get out
You won’t forget now
Laid under clouds
It’ll take me out
Push off memories
Drift out in the sea
Wandering scares me
I need clarity
These days race past
I’m falling back
Shadows to cast
I’m here at last
Lay on my back and stare at the stars
It’s in my grasp, it’s not so far
It tastes sweet
It seems surreal
Is this how it’s supposed to feel?
