Conversations all alone, pulls me over once again
Got to bring my spirit up, circle back that way again
All of the memories that I hold, all of the workings of my hand
Constellations never showed the silver lining of a man
This is not my plan no it feels much bigger than
I’m overwhelmed close your eyes close your eyes
This is not my plan no it feels much bigger than
I’m overwhelmed close your eyes close your eyes
Cut it down and watch it burn
Raise the waters watch it turn
Who am I to ever know all before the days of old
This is not my plan no it feels much bigger than
I’m overwhelmed close your eyes close your eyes
This is not my plan no it feels much bigger than
I’m overwhelmed close your eyes close your eyes
I won’t let you down, I’ve made up my mind, even in a time that’s killing off my kind

Only wanted to be loved, thought I had to rise above
Is it just me, am I just dumb, oh yes I am my fathers son
Just as I turn a page, now I’m feeling my age, now I’m paying today I put my life on layaway and over the years, I picked up all of these fears, never had them before but now there’s more and more
Don’t say that someday you won't say I want to be there but I got to be here and no
Don’t say that someday you won't say I want to be there but I ought to be here and Have it you had it you have it have it you had it you wanted more and now it’s all coming back down, have it you had it you have it have it you had it you wanted more and now it’s all coming back down
Oh what’s the answer from your vantage point am I a monster that can’t enjoy
Or is it just an old reflection, all that you learn as much as you’ve been missing
All this time you’ve loved me, all this time, all this time you’ve loved me, all this time
And when I’m wanting to hide, you come home close the door
And relax my mind, you’re so sure
And we’ll learn to be just like this
And get up from the floor once again
Haven’t you had it, haven’t you had it you wanted more and now it’s all coming back
Haven’t you had it, haven’t you had it you wanted more and now it’s all coming back now
Only wanted to be loved, thought I had to rise above, only wanted to be loved

Young death defies a soul
They keep the corn there to feed the swole and burn the eyes
Over by the window you see yourself like you’ve never known, well light em up
Gonna tell me where you stand
Well can you tell me what we’d come against down the line
Only want to live the life you’re here but someone gave away your time long ago Momma take the pressures off I got a lot of real heavy thoughts that coincide
Who will say you’ve had enough
You don’t pretend to even read the stuff you gotta sign
I know I got a lot to give are you gonna stick around until the end to see the light
The more I like to keep my heart
you know the more I like to keep my heart ultra light
The more I like to keep my heart
you know the more I like to keep my heart ultra light
Ultra light
Ultra light
The more you go beg and plead anytime you go and scuff your knee you wanna cry
Over there all by yourself until when someone takes you off the shelf and now it’s time
Ultra light
Ultra light

Cold Water Kisses
03:26

War and peace both trigger the soft side of me
Cycles of life to be seen through windows of time in opposition
Once or twice I think I did warrant your advice
But like a devil in disguise it led me a stray without a vision
I wont go, seeking the dark that I know
Echoes of light on the road
Wade through your worn wildest dreaming
After all you’re bound to catch a fall
This is your time to be wrong
Once in a lifetime of misses those cold water kisses
Don’t lie to me everything’s asking to be seen
We’re just a vestige on a swing tethered to time and our convictions
All we know stories of life long ago
They’re just impressions in the stone conjured from man’s own ambition
All we’re told still and they killed my radio
These seeds are easier to be sown goodness in kind is all we long
Thoughtless to mind the salt we’ve tasted is oversaturated
Where do you go when you act like that
Where do you go when you act like that
Well as long as we’ll come back like that

Goodness in man is a time to be had in the light of a fire that bellows
From a chauvinist host the Holy Ghost good Lord I’m changing my tone
Why would you say anytime any day there’s love and then there is none
The boldness in me was a child to be weaned by the toll of what I would sow
Ruminant one was a diamond in the rough and Lord he longed to be honed
Jealous of man he cursed the land and his shame stands to be shown
Why would you say anytime any day there’s love and then there’s none
The boldness in me set fire to his wings and at last low and behold
Why would you say anytime any day
Why would you say anytime any day

Light of my Life

Want to like it want to love it
Is this all that I have gotten
For as long as I am wanted
Can’t you hear me when I’m calling
I won't be wrong, spent my life it’s been to long
This time I know, never want to let it go
Light of my life
Sorry if I let you down now
Light of my life
Sorry if I let you down now, I’m just fading out
Light of my life
Well I thought I’d go and find
What I need
But I’d come to lose my mind
What I need
Is changing all the time
What I need
Light of my life, light of my life
Light of my life

What you don’t know is on its way
Got you thinking hard in the modern age
Debbie’s on the run in a red Grand AM
Burn the whole lot to dissolve their hand
Good God, how do you live
Someday, what would it take
Got her on the line I want to give her what she needs
Tell her take her time I hear her heart when she breathes
Are you gonna go take shelter from
All that unfolds every turn around the sun
Good God, how do you live
Someday, what would it take
When you go they’ll come, put a light in the yard
When you go they’ll come, put a lock on the chain
Born afraid in your arms today
All I’d read of water and heat
Into the vacuum we’re brought together, you ought to know me in all of my anger
Into the vacuum we’re walking backwards we’ll look forever with eyes like the answer
But in the mind there is a hunger and in the mind there is a hunger
Born afraid
What has placed you inside always the eye of the storm
Coming in hot coming in low burning in the snow

Static Burns

I’ll come back when the light from the salt connects
I’ll come through just as real as you want me to
But if we only do what we’re told
Come to connect you get a static burn
I was there in the beginning I’ll be there in the end
Is it happenstance
Want to come up you come down with the bends
I’ll come back when the light from the salt connects
I’ll come through just as real as you want me to
All of the echoes of a time before
Have crystalized when it’s time to go home
I was there in the beginning I’ll be there in the end
Is it happenstance
All that it was went just like we’d planned
Is it happenstance
In that house, in that light
I felt love, I felt life
I long to be there now, this is the time right now

The sun has gone down and it’s not like it was before
Because inside the feelings now, like I’ve landed on some distant shore
Figure out make a plan, get some things for the ride in the morning
No you wont understand but it’s a thing that sure can happen
Where are the things I’ve come to know, where are the things I’ve come to know
Nobody knows what I know because they can’t read my mind
I’ve tried to refine but I often feel myself retreating
Well how long will it go
When you learn that you think like they don’t
Make you feel alone
And you are everything you imagine
Where are the things I’ve come to know, where are the things I’ve come to know
In the distance, disappointment, is there a measure I could take
What’s the difference, is there a difference, what difference would it make
I wrote it down so that I could remember all the things that I wanted to give to her only now do we feel like it will never, wait around till you see it, what else is in the world
What’s the difference, is there a difference, what difference would it make

Go and start the reel again, to transcend I will be traveling
All the way from wicking thoughts that deadlock to where I’d only rot
The eyes they roll upon me, have I ever known
I ask them what is the matter why is it that you’re here
To find my ever after if I may commandeer
God won't you make me strong again so I can pull it in for a win
I’d set them on the corner before I’d let them over so how is it that we’re even here
Oh in my mind I’m fine I’ll check this time and see something new under the sun
In my mind I’m fine I’ll check this time and see something new under
Oh where are you this is important left the keys in the lock to the fortress
Gave you ease all your life now you’re careless wont be next to me child
My mind I’m fine I’ll check this time and see something new under the sun
In my mind I’m fine I’ll check this time and see something new under
You ought to get a load of yourself you’re spilling over like you’re something else
Easy come, easy go, least of all I need to know
Weigh your mind weigh your soul, interest sinking like a stone
Go on about you want something better, well who the hell you’d get it from
Oh there is more and you’re never going to get enough
Full is your cup but you wake up every single morning
In a world that’s not your home
Get up, get out, get on

Broken to Pieces

Well it broke to pieces but surface area increases
How am I supposed to feel life will never be ideal
So we co-depend, love me for the shape I’m in
We go together you could tell me where I’ve been
Love, love me till I go
Love, love me till I go
And when it comes together it won't be around forever
Yes and what comes after and will I want to remember
I’d trade my ever-loving heart if it’d fill me up with answer
Gave way to all the simple things oh the simple then some
I’d trade my ever-loving heart if it’d fill me up with answer
Love, love me till I go
Love, love me till I go
It broke to pieces surface area increases
Love, love me till I go
till I go
