From You
03:16
|

|
lost in your love and i’ve got no say
thoughts dreamed up are in the way
lost in the world that you let display
tossed in the words i let you portray
those things you’d say
on the long, lone nights when the moon howls back
my heavy lidded eyes show the love they lack
wants you to know that if you lose track
It’s not the the time it’s the odds you’ve stacked
you can still turn back
I want it more
I wanted more from You
You, filled with love, filled my hope
The bear on my back is we came so close
Now what i see is what hurts the most
Is how in your life i’m just a ghost
Where did you go?
I run through my mind it’s a prying game
my heart holds the keys and it’s taken aim
Now that you’re gone it’s a crying shame
Cause I feel how you love and I fired your flame
Don’t you feel the same?
You said you were cold, you’ve grown without
With your fire gone dim, you’d grown in doubt
But I loved how you burn and what you’re about
Your fire works.
You’re fireworks.
I want it more
I wanted more from you
From you, I wanted something more
From you, From you, I wanted something more
So I had to go, So I had to go

Bad Timing
03:38
|

|
I guess bad timing’s all I’ve got
you’re in love and I am not
trust me when I say that I have been there too
but not here with you
I could stay but why would I
I could die in wasting time
I am just a brick that’s building up this wall
you’re the wind and I won’t fall
I know you want me to do all the things
for you do all the things for you
I know you want me to do all the things that I can do
And if you wonder where I’ll go
that’s a path I’ve tried to know
I am water that’s rushing askew
carve a path and forge right through
I know you want me to do all the things
for you do all the things for you
I know you want me to do all the things that I can do
The things that I can do
They are not for you
I know you want me to do all the things to you
do all the things for you
I know you want me to do all the things that I can do

Perfect Poem
03:18
|
|||
|
you’ve got everything you need
in a perfect pile
found your footing plant your feet
It’ll be a while
when you got everything you need
you got everything you need
you’ve have everything to say
it’s a perfect poem
save your face and the day
Is it clear or numb?
when you have everything to say
you have everything to say
And everything you’ve done
Bounces off the sun
And I’m just a wandering tree
Everything you are
Settles like a scar
But all this, just sounds like me
you’ve got everything you need
and you don’t need me
sowed your field planted seeds
and you feel set free
when you’ve got everything you need
you’ve got everything you need
so I whisper just your name
through a bated breath
But the pain feels the same
And I won’t forget
when I’m whispering your name
When I’m whispering your name
And everything you’ve done
Bounces off the sun
And I’m just a wandering tree
Everything you are
Settles like a scar
But all this, just sounds like me
Mistakes, Heartaches
They’re sometimes made as one
Awake, we take
If we are undone
Everything you are
whispers from the stars
sequential and set free
everywhere I run
close to where I’m done
to comfort and to ease
Why ever would you roam
If everything is known
Caressing and carefree
With everything you’ve shown
You’re such a perfect poem
But all this just sounds like me

Nowhere at All
03:29
|
|||
|
baby don't worry
get in my car
we'll drive ‘til we're nowhere at all
worrying’s no comfort
and all i want for you is comfort
baby don't worry at all
you are now out fighting
been through the war
you don't know what you're good or here for
want all the answers
that, i'm not sure
baby don’t worry at all
If your body's buckled
needs a safe place to rest
looking for somewhere safe to fall
maybe that somewhere is here on my chest
so baby don't worry at all
Don’t worry baby
I’ll be near when we’re far
when we’re nowhere at all
worrying’s no comfort
all I want for you is comfort
so baby don’t worry at all
If your body's buckled
needs a safe place to rest
looking for somewhere safe to fall
maybe that somewhere is here on my chest
so baby don't worry at all

Strum and Rhyme
03:55
|
|||
|
I didn't mean to strum and rhyme
like the sad old lonesome kind
and I didn't mean to run and hide
when you put up your walls I leaned on mine
Walls built to show the world
we got through all we did
Walls killed what could unfurl
so we ran and hid
I didn't mean to interrupt you
I didn't mean to change your chorus
By no means am i an answer
and I ride no hero's horse
Walls built to show the world
we got through all we did
Walls killed what could unfurl
so we ran and hid
Now just sad choruses
where once there ran horses
I can't be your love
so let go of me and my love
Oh let go of us
what more can I say, it gets in the way
So I ran and hid
I didn't mean to mean so much
I didn't mean to seem as such
I don't mean to strum and rhyme
in a sad old lonesome time

Tom's Diner
04:10
|

|
(Suzanne Vega)
I am sitting in the morning at the diner on the corner
I am waiting at the counter for the man to pour the coffee
And he fills it only halfway and before I even argue
He is looking out the window at somebody coming in
"It is always nice to see you", says the man behind the counter
To the woman who has come in she is shaking her umbrella
And I look the other way as they are kissing their hellos
I'm pretending not to see them instead I pour the milk
do do do
I open up the paper there's a story of an actor
Who had died while he was drinking it was no one I had heard of
And I'm turning to the horoscope and looking for the funnies
When I'm feeling someone watching me and so I raise my head
There's a woman on the outside looking inside does she see me?
No she does not truly see me, she sees her own reflection
And I'm trying not to notice that she's hitching up her skirt
And while she's straightening her stockings her hair has gotten wet
do do do
Oh, this rain It will continue
through the morning as I'm listening
To the bells of the cathedral
I am thinking of your voice
do do do

My Way
03:44
|
|||
|
If it were my way
we’d take the highway
we’d ride a cliche
into the sunset
But you’re gone now
I have to allow
and I’m not sure how
not yet
You could have warned me
if you were straining
You could have told me
if you were paining
Somebody’s gonna slow you down
Somebody’s gonna break your heart
You’re gonna have to look around
gonna have to find your guard
And I don’t know if you know
What it’s like to have to grow
From a broken hearted soul
You won’t forget me
you just wait and see
You left what could be
to face the regret
Now you’re long gone
and this is long drawn
If I was heart strong
And not this mindset
I could show you our world that’s waiting
I could hold you now time is wasting
Somebody’s gonna slow you down
Somebody’s gonna break your heart
You’re gonna have to look around
You’re gonna have to find your guard
And I don’t know if you know
What it’s like to have to grow
From a broken hearted soul
I lay silently
Heart broken quietly
I don’t know how to be alone
All this left undone
We’d only just begun
I forget how to be alone
If it were my way
We’d take the highway
We’d ride a cliche
Into the sunset

Room for Me
03:31
|
|||
|
Is there any room for me
Is there any room for me
cause all of this time
all I can find
is where I shouldn't be
here it isn't safe for me
here it isn’t safe for me
I am too high
I'm not sure
I'm not crazy
So long
So long, oh yes
You’re gone
You’re gone, I guess
I know
Is there any room in you
Is there any room in you
cause all of this time
you've been on my mind
and I know you knew
Here it isn't safe for me
Here it isn’t safe for me
I am too high
I'm not sure
I'm not crazy

You Know
04:55
|

|
hey now what's gotten into you
ever since they got to you
to say you know someone
is a ballsy move
like I said I knew you
they nod their heads
and ask you why
no matter what you say
you're so sure that it's right
to be so on is such a lonely fight
you're like a fire but there's no light
and I know we could sit and laugh about it
I know it’s a half and half undoubted
you would sit and say that ‘you’re not right’
you’ve got a back on you to fight
you raise a fire but there’s no light
no hearts to help you beat alone
yours left abandoned out there somewhere that you've thrown
if you need no one
then no one will be around
no one will be around
and I know we could sit and laugh about it
you know it’s a half and half undoubted
you would sit and say that ‘you’re not right’
you’ve got a back on you to fight
I know i get to you
i know cause i'm like you
you'll fight your own way through
you'll fight with you
you’ll fight
and you know we could sit and laugh about it
you know it’s a half and half undoubted
you would sit and say that you’re not right
you’ve got a back on you to fight
you’ve got a fire but there’s no light
