The flashbulbs are burning, the picture is being taken
It’s some shot of what you were, proving your self-worth
And someone knows your name, they might not know your face
I don’t know you yet, but I know you like to be called
Julie,
Here I am
And some strong boy says, “What’s wrong? How are you getting home?”
You’re stumbling around, you’re not talking but you laugh out loud
You don’t know my name, but I know you know my face
I don’t know you yet, but I know I’ll call you
Julie,
Here I am

The Divorce
02:59

If I’m missing out, where do I go now? if I’m missing out
When you shut me out, it’s all like you choose to, when you shut me out
Honey, you’re missing the point
when love is a choice that you choose to ignore
Since we were young, we thought it was chance, since we were young
Love’s not a myth now, you choose what you want
And you’re not a myth now anymore
Honey, you’re missing the point
when love is a choice that you choose to ignore
Honey, we’re missing the point,
Don’t you feel tired of doing this wrong?
I feel so tired of doing you wrong

Passerby
03:55
|

I want to work all day long, standing right on top of my health
I’ve been climbing all the time, everyday I find a deeper well
I don’t want to be anything but true to you
I don’t need to be anything but true to you
I found my bed & my bible, dreaming of the words that you said
The heart of lonesome survival is reading all the words that you said
And I fear that I’ll be just another passerby
All I want to be is someone that was worth the time
For everyday I’m wrong, there’s no day long enough to make it right
These apologetic songs only show how far my heart’s been from my mind
And I fear that I’ll be just another passerby
All I want to be is someone that was worth the time
I’ve thought of words out of context, and been fool enough for you to see
The devil and his lying, by hell, he’s a lot faster than me
I have seen you mold me, do it over ‘till I’m perfect and I’m new
Everything you told me, say it over ‘till I’m solid, through & through

In Clover

I’m swearing off this need for complaining.
Are we incomplete without inanimate things?
Something is tugging at me outside the industry,
It’s that I’ll never be saved living solely for me
Will I fit through the eye, living this high
I’ve idled my life with little white lies
I’m so obsessed with what comes next,
But there’s a name I know that could give me rest
But it’s an easy choice to live in a void of hopeless wonder,
Until I’m destroyed
Will I fit through the eye, living this high
Have I denied the reason why he died?
Will I fit through the eye, living this high
I’ve idled my life with little white lies

If You Were Mine
03:15
|

Tell me darling, did we do it all wrong?
I’m talking to you nightly, over the phone
I have always gotta act so awfully young
To my surprise, you said that you were absolutely done
Everything I miss,
The heart stolen from your lips,
If you were mine, we’d take our time
I’m sorry my darling, we just did it all wrong
While I was talking, what I never said moved on
I have always gotta act so awfully young
I’m not surprised, I knew that you were absolutely done
Everything I miss,
The heart stolen from your lips,
If you were mine, we’d take our time

Loving Wish
02:31
|

Something is alive in the woods
I saw it with my own two eyes
The trees were set ablaze, though nothing was on fire,
It was the sun breaking through the branches
I was staring, I was staring,
At the aging dawn of the morning
For the deepest loving wish of my Lord,
I fail every single day
I retreat into the woods, like nothing lives at all
And “nothing ever will,” they say
And it scares me, you scare me
It scares me, God, you scare me
It scares me, you love me,
It scares me, don’t you love me?

Hurting Me
02:30
|
|||
You can’t get over all that I told you
You won’t get sober, your ice just gets colder
I’m changing the order, young but I’m older
I’ll rest on your shoulder before it gets colder
Say what you mean and stop hurting me,
I just can’t be mean with this new spirit in me
If we counted up our lifetimes, all that’s in my mind
Would break up/divide like fading horizons
You watch all the stars like they’re eternal daylight
I speak in slant rhymes to try and get your heart right
Say what you mean and stop hurting me,
Our hearts shouldn’t feed on blowing off steam

Put Down
03:16
|
|||
Inside the car, I’m not going far
I just like looking out the windows
I’m not much for fighting, I’m not that exciting
It’s the reason why I stare
Sometimes I let go and I’m not sure why,
That’s the reason I laid down at the door,
With immature thoughts and words I don’t think of,
What am I going to?
Put down the phone, it’s OK to be alone
But your voice is in my head all night
I wonder what you’d say, if you knew how many days
Got quiet when I heard your name
Sometimes I let go and I’m not sure why,
That’s the reason I laid down at the door,
With immature thoughts and words I don’t think of,
What am I going to?

Annie

I wonder why I’m swimming this sea that I’ve been swimming,
Do you know me?
I sleep an awful lot while you live tomorrow night,
Do you hear me dreaming?
I’m looking at you through the phone, and I know it’s getting old,
But I want to
Wish I could see you every night, without these tired eyes,
I want to
I walk around & walk around
I walk around & walk around,
Do you know me?
I wonder where you’re sitting when you do all of your reading,
Do you know me?
I sleep an awful lot while you live tomorrow night,
Do you hear me dreaming?
You’re half the world away, I wish that I could
Be beside you
I want to see you every night, it’s never killed me just to try, and say
I want you
I walk around & walk around
I walk around & walk around,
Do you know me?

Steeples
04:03
|

What’s the motivation to stay content with missing pages all the time?
You try and drown all my devotion and cause a little commotion, well that’s fine
You get angry with me, brother, saying your heart is just tougher than mine
While all your songs, they yearn for exits, and all of my love for you is blind
I know that your heart is solid gold
I know that everyone must be right
I know of our equivalence as we’re getting old
I know how you stay up at night, sometimes
I would feel I’d gained a nation if you’d hint at speculation but you won’t
We talk of your transgressions while you answer your own questions, on your own
You say you believe in people while you’re breaking down the steeple with your stones
You’d say there is no truth, but only the truth can come from you, and you alone
I know that your heart is solid gold
I know that everyone must be right
I know of our equivalence as we’re getting old
I know how you stay up at night, sometimes
I’m trying to answer you, dear brother of mine

Loser Street

Follow me to the losers’ street,
I can’t tell you where we’ll end up falling asleep
Now Peter, please quit trying to outsmart me,
You’re acting like I don’t know what you need
I’m trying to unite us, hand in hand,
But I know that I’ll divide us, man against man
You’ve made me hard to find until a sleepless night,
There’s a thousand other places to shed my light
You want to live like me, but you’re in a safety dream,
You can’t be honest if you’re lying through your teeth
You know I pine for you & I pine for you
You know I died for you & I died for you

Endless Wood
02:33
|

My Father, I pray I’m not too far, I know I’m trailing off
You love me still when I’m sealing deals with the demons behind my eyes
When I have fallen behind, with no direction in mind,
Something stirs in me, in blinding light
The blood of my brothers and family trees reign through the melodies above me
For the sake of your love,
I’m breathing
My Father, this love is an endless wood, please save me from my darkened heart
I believe you forever, I said I would, and that means I’m not running home alone
When I have fallen behind, with no direction in mind,
Something stirs in me, in blinding light
The songs of my sisters and family trees reign through the melodies above me
For the sake of your blood,
I’m changing

Meadowsville

Standing still,
in Meadowsville,
and sunlight beams
Open wide,
my open eyes,
now ageless things
All awake,
she radiates
her angel wings
Standing still,
in Meadowsville,
is all I see
Now breathe, with me
Now breathe
