Little Seeds 02:14
our world is not the same and this too shall pass he said and we are little seeds growing vines through fences living how we please our world is not the same and this too shall pass he said and from the language in his stiff shoulders the air the air went cold we are little seeds growing vines through fences living how we please our world is not the same

building bricks stacking tall tops of tree tell them all you left me scratching your head intolerably hold onto a branch wait days and days animals crawling in your skull rolling around again scraping your insides out holding yourself together A grizzly you've become when you're reachin' in her heart i know a super man he told me with his hands i'm having a thought that wont let you in time does a funny thing i thank-you for reminding me what have you become when you're reachin' in her heart?

Tina says what I cant time teaches touches torches a burning blimp a glimpse of want you're out there but it's tangled rope threads unlacing one by one strands unraveling mind keeps traveling on its legs to distant places to a world of mismatch times times were good but times no good when good don't last forever it was you what I want, close me in race down face down, close me in box it up ship it out weight weighs wages welling up in sinking sand in ink there's love and despair and the in between braid together for each word letters sent but not stamped paper airplanes all the rage for you alas there's the great wait washing over don't be late cus late just makes us sober

I dont wanna be afraid I just know it's how I'm made i don't wanna speak your name solid songs sing our game oh, I cant relate. oh, I can't think straight. I don't wanna be afraid I just know it's how I'm made I'm scared of what we'll do we'll tear the world in two with our heart, our heart our fearless love and we'll walk, walk, through the park we'll scared the birds, birds, with our bark we'll scare the world with our bark We'll scare the world with our bark We'll scare the world with our bark and then we'll bike, bike, bike the park, to the shipyard where the road stops, to the river, swim until we part, to the river, swim until we part

Knavery 02:47
Bend me break me take all my things hold me down with my teeth to the ground forgive the forgotten and hold onto your dream of driving crush the blue gray sky like an ant be the words on your tongue spilling out before it's all over the small print sings, "our foundation's filled with doubt." jewel is looking out the window at the falling falling leaves and the colors they are changing as are we, as are we if you know the truth wont you set it free

You say, "I am not your friend" I am your love who's been away for years. i haven't called eyes to the sky and please remember this and please don't wait up I dont know what world you think you live in but... You're picking fights in my garden of gold. and I don't know what world you live in but it's getting old.

if there is a beast a beast inside of me, can you let it be? can you talk to me? underneath the floorboards is a whistle If you make a sound can you speak? if there is a beast a beast inside of me, can you let it be? can you talk to me?

fate is a falling stone you create your lifelong perspective take it in take it out take your breath for what it is and i see you walking down the street conversing with a ghost tell me where you're from, tell me apparition you're traveling all alone leaving steps all in the snow and i see you walking down the street conversing with a ghost look here stranger i don't know how to handle you i cant sew you back he cant bring you back and while you're going down to your place say your first and say your last words say your first words and say your last word and i see you walking down the street conversing with a ghost.

eye, eye of the storm i'm dancing with you. A swollen red across your cheeks two sheets of glass behind your eyes, a hand imprinted on your mind, a whisper coming from behind, "dont worry friend, we'll make it out fine." a frozen puddle turning dry. eye, eye of the storm the grass is just fine eye, eye of the storm they'll be no rewind
