Heat Lightning
03:28
|
|||
|
snow white skies
above the sleepless curves of the world
I am flying by
I am flying away
it's a cold dark night
and I am not the dawn
would that have bothered you once?
and now you just move on?
there's a strange bit of motion
to what I wanted to say
and I am moving blind through the words
the words
what is this voice
whispering in ears?
saying look how things turn out
why even start it here
bright bolts of lightning crack
the air you're breathing in
the sound of open eyes
looking to meet the wind
there's a strange bit of motion
to how I feel each day
always moving blind through the words
the words

Red Sky
02:58
|
|||
|
oh the evening's come again
through the open window and autumn winds
and the traffic turning red the fleeing sun
the air with possibility
less tangible, more memory
of a time of believing anything
the world that the pages make
unheard records and infinite days that
hang uncertain now, around your head
I caught a glimpse of you last night
a moving photograph to dream inside
but the four walls faded in the morning light
alone, but pointed back towards home
a moving target, but not quite gone
a relief to believe again
the world that the pages make
unheard records and infinite days that
hang unspoken now, around your head

Anywhere
03:23
|
|||
|
stillness as the morning's going by
running past the shadows they left last night
in a quiet age, the bottles piled high
from a rain soaked road, oil colors glow in the light
I'd go anywhere, I'd go anywhere with you
I am coming home to the coffee and the quiet
through the sweaty haze of the August light
to the TV down and a record spinning while
you watch the rooftops wake from our window high

Moonlight
03:31
|
|||
|
the sun came up with no difference in
the dreams you were leaving
and the days that started all like the rest
had you seen always in colors bright and brilliant
from eyes closed and world outside your head
you've seen the distance disappear
while waiting to get out of here
as the shadows dragged across another day
the waiting pulled you down with fear
you're still praying to get out of here
you feel so different in how you ended up the same
morning meditations on the glory
on how to disappear to nothing and everything
looking for some harmless way of living
to be unnoticed and go on your way
you're feeling like a photograph
that's folded up and wearing out
as the shadows drag across another day
the waiting pulled you down with fear
you're still praying to get out of here
you feel so different in how you ended up the same
you feel so different in how you ended up the same

Monday's Rain
03:51
|
|||
|
if I laugh it's at Monday's rain again
you worry at who can hear you when you talk within
your own head beneath the orange wet leaves
so serious, so hard to please
and you wonder at how strange life can be
I know, I know
your world will start again
but tonight, you let the lights catch in your eyes
and your voice
calls to silent memory
the ghosts that never leave
have you grown afraid of tomorrow before it comes?
you'll sink with the weight of days you're taking on
you say to walk in the light of love with grace
on blood skinned knees and humble face
I'm falling out of time with you
I know, I know
your world will start again
but tonight, you let the tears catch in your eyes
and the words
that call to silent memory
the ghosts who never leave

Tree of Life
02:56
|
|||
|
what stream feeds the tree of life?
can you drink deep in the cool of the night?
and see the flaming sword move like the Fourth of July
at the Garden wall close your eyes
smooth days when the work is done
when the world's depth is still unknown
feel the flaming sword across the sky
at the Garden wall close
at the Garden wall close
at the Garden wall close your eyes
|

Sugarcoated
04:19
|
|||
|
you feel so different
sugarcoated
you say you don't want to have
to explain
all the faces
you're undercover
in your own skin
again
you never have to speak
see the traces
and dirty river
all the worried winds
blowing to no pain
in the bitter garden
you'd like forgotten
buried just underneath
everything
you never have to speak
hello in there
is this happening
again?
hello in there
is this happening
again?
you never have to speak

Unraveled
04:50
|
|||
|
you never thought that you would be this way
you turn your head around the room
with no words on your lips
always waiting for the right time coming
out into the night again
with arms open wide
when I think of you
do you think of me?
freefalling and waiting
try to keep your head down
for the haze to dissipate
at the edge of tomorrow
unraveling days
