What I've Become

How I feel is the way I write
wish that was how I lived my life
and I've been closed and locked away
and how do you live happily that way?
I've not lost my way, but I have changed
what I've lost I've become today
I've got my face to the sky
and my back is to the sea
and I am off towards the life
and all things I've never seen
I've not lost my way, but I have changed
what I've lost I've become today

Miles

Stop the car I see the lights, bright city lights
and I think I'd rather see those starry skies
feeling like summertime
Stop the time
oh, it's been good to me, good to me
but when I breathe the highway air
oh, I'd rather be back in those woods
with you next to me
oh, I miss you so
oh, I miss you so
Today I am here but you're miles away
we both knew that I couldn't stay
now the end has come and it will stay that way
and the miles increase each day
your kisses felt sweeter than jasmine and honey
but I woke up to a dark, dreary morning
couldn't keep your love alive
so I took off running
and the miles increase each day
oh, I miss you so
oh, I miss you so
Today I am here but you're miles away
we both knew that I couldn't stay
now the end has come and it will stay that way
and the miles increase each day
Today I am here but you're miles away
(stop the car I see the lights)
we both knew that I couldn't stay
now the end has come and it will stay that way
(and I think I'd rather see those starry skies)
and the miles increase each day
Whisper to me know I hear you calling loud
(stop the car I see the lights)
your voice echoes away
reach to me somehow I need to feel your grace
(and I think I'd rather see those starry skies)
and the miles increase each day
your kisses felt sweeter than jasmine and honey
but I woke up to a dark, dreary morning
couldn't keep your love alive so I took off running
and the miles increase each day
oh, I miss you so
oh. I miss you so

Horizon Lines
03:53
|
|||
|
Send out the dogs to find our love
in the slums of our fallen eyes
and I'm not sure where you came from
and I'm not sure why
Ooo, I can't swim
Ooo, let me in
We're losing light from the skyline
we're losing touch with every falling night
and those nights they are so kind
they're not so kind
Ooo, I can't swim
Ooo, let me in
I take everything too personally
and I haven't found out how to love casually
'cause your words they are so, so sweet
Ooo, I can't swim
Ooo, let me in
You have oceans in your eyes
Icy, deep, and wide
and I can't find the horizon line

Temptress
05:12

Locked myself out, sitting on the porch again
fumble for the keys I have hanging round my neck
I'm so tired
I'm living my life 9 to 5
and day by day
Called myself out for staying up too late
for no good reason
living up in my head today
and all the time
I'm a wreck, but I'm alright
Take me now I'm weak and vulnerable
I need you now more than you will ever know
you'll never know
How long can we keep this up
'cause I'm tired of faking my apathy
how long can we keep this up
'cause it's beating me inside-out
What a case of social anxiety
and all confusing signs to read
or is it just a waste of time
I could be your black dress temptress
but it's not my forte
I struggle to impress
even myself most days
been let down one too many times
I used to trust, but now I'm just unkind
Take me now
tentative and slow
like you had a lifetime ago
How long can we keep this up
cause I'm tired of faking my apathy
how long can we keep this up
cause it's beating me inside-out
I will fail you
but I still want you

Silence Is Heavy
04:32

Silence is heavy and it won't let me go, let me go
roots my feet to the soil, in the darkness they grow
my roots are watered with tears from the sky, from the sky
sung to sleep every morning with a wind lullaby
When the rain started falling
we were stuck in the silence
and the moon started lighting
your eyes in the forest
when the rain turned to snow
the silence fell so deep
I said please don't go
and you kissed me to sleep
You will come along in my mind
when I've left here, when I've left here
will I stay in yours
will your thoughts hold me dear
There is peace in the forest
in the snow and the rain
there is love in my heart
in my eyes I'm afraid
When the rain started falling
we were stuck in the silence
and the moon started lighting
your eyes in the forest
when the rain turned to snow
the silence fell so deep
I said please don't go
and you kissed me to sleep

Sometimes I wish you'd leave me to rest and stop testing me
but that's not how life works, not how life works,
not how life works
Please count the steps I've taken and leave me be
not validate the reasons to keep me beat
I've tried so hard and come so far
but things keep getting in my way
might have missed a step along the way
but you won't drag me down today
Sometimes I feel my hearts too cold
to hold or love or even beat
some days it's heavy some days it's tired
some days it's a little weak
It's wrapped in winter bathed in snow
I know it's trying so hard to make me happy
Sometimes I think I'll miss this place
when it's full of empty space
and the things I own are all packed away
could damn the bank and damn the state
could damn my luck but it's all a waste
on New Year's Day
I've tried so hard and come so far
but things keep getting in my way
might have missed a step along the way
but you won't drag me down today
But I'll keep building bridges
to get me over the mess I live in
keep putting miles on this car
roll my stone a little too far
to bring me back again
I've tried so hard and come so far
but things keep getting in my way
might have missed a step along the way
I set the bar I need to star the places
I want to see on my way
but there's a new start for me
on New Year's Day
