Obvious, Cool
03:28
|
|

All strings tied to me but I can’t get myself unstrung
Hard to see that I could be always counting down to one
All things drive through me but I could not accept this love
Talk to me, right to me, cause I’ve been a boy for too long
Is it obvious? Is it cool?
That I treat sunny days like I’ve got a million left to use
Is it obvious? Is it cool?
That I’ve thought of a hundred ways to bring it up to you for you to choose
But always it was true that I could see you shine
All things drive through me but I could not accept this love
Talk to me, lie to me, cause I’ve been a boy for too long

Goes Black

He said, “Don’t leave me alone
I’ve got to tell you, son
Out passed where roads have lanes
I built a house out of rain
And lit rooms with stars from the sky
Carved furniture from meteorites
Then let it burn down, let it go black
Into your eyes
Let it go black
I mined the hills for coal
Invested my wage in gold
Retired before I was old
Spent what was left chasing the ghosts from the war all night
They said you’re fine but they lied
And let me go on ‘til it goes black
Into your eyes
Still it goes black
It was nice to see you, I’m really glad we talked
I don’t need the silent treatment, it’ll take its toll
How could I breathe easy when I was not the first
Would you mind to lend a ride and take me home
Before it goes black”

Southern Actress
03:41
|
|
||
|
Not the greatest actor
Fill the gaps laughter
Any subtlety of mine
Lost beneath the chatter
Sometimes I feel like
It’s hard leaving out
What I understand and how to
Like a southern actress
Traded screen for mattress
I don’t need to find out
Why her daddy’s freaked out
I think I draw lines, interpolate
What I don’t understand from my view
I don’t think they’re made of glass
Reflections show more than I could take
More than I could take, but god I know
It’s the little voice, the nucleus choice
The gestures we don’t recognize
Conscious to the bone
Because they x-rayed our minds

Billy Will Swim
03:54
|
|
||
|
Billy will swim…
Take a photograph
As a reminder of this trip with you
Billy will swim
And find it all starts to change
Even tree lines reflect the waves
I hope it rains
Its starts to rain
Take a photograph
As a reminder of this trip with you
Billy will swim…
Take a photograph
As a reminder of this trip with you
Just as you were sinking your teeth into grocery sushi
It starts to tell you
Just as you were thinking about jumping in the water
It starts to tell you
That all you needed was a fall break out here
Never trade a minute
I just need to park the jet ski
But first I’ll ride it for a minute

Age
04:31
|
|
||
|
Piling up birthday cards, couldn’t throw them away
Passing the driver’s test with a generous curve
Pulling from a bottle we got from the back of the stash
Picking out a direction before we know shit
Down a one way avenue there’s no going too far
Unmarked intersections bloom, maps can’t tell where you are
The gang’s spreading out to find our own corner of the world
Vacating the routine to go and see the sights
Waiting for the right one to take their hand
Planning our funerals before we are dead
Down a one way avenue there’s no going too far
Unmarked intersections bloom, maps can’t tell where you are
I shouldn’t think about my age
But they asked me…
Quel âge as-tu?

Reminded
05:15
|
|
||
|
Any sunburns that I got, are you reminded?
Playing cards to win the pot, are you reminded?
Running late an awful lot, are you reminded?
Any hotel where I’ve stayed, are you reminded?
Your old neighborhood, your high school job, you are
Your perceptions, your art, your soul, you are
Any girl that’s held my hand, are you reminded?
Being told to be a man, are you reminded?
Any subjects that I’ve learned
Every campfire that I’ve burned
Anywhere that I’ve been lost
And everything that I forgot
Everyone that you’ve ever known, you are
Everything that you’ve ever done, you are

Soon Enough
02:39
|
|
||
|
Left footprints all scattered like a ghost with nothing figured out
Studied time tables to transfer trains to a freight car head south
And I miss when September left me sweatier than June
I’ll be there soon…
Will it be soon enough?
Because I’m soluble enough to dissolve
Cave dwelling bear cub hibernate, wake up soon
Burnt out priest sabbatical, come back soon
Household addict’s death grip, give it up soon
Clocks on walls and calendars, tell me it’s soon

Wishbone
03:59
|
|
||
|
Rough outside, good thing I had a rain coat
The chances were twenty percent
Won a few bucks from a scratch off that I bought
To prove to you I wasn’t cursed, it was just a phase
Things go, days go slow
I see straight without a lens
All green lights on my route home
Good genes, good timing, who knows
A clean break of the wishbone will tell
Cast a line into the stream with the cheap bait
Reeling in just as soon as it sank
Got tickets to the show for free on the radio
Would you go with me if I asked you?
Been dealt pocket aces a lot
Never had to steal, never got caught
Good luck, good fortune, who knows
A clean break of the wishbone will tell

Over Into
03:46
|
|
||
|
Well you’ve got a whole of time to waste
And you’ve got a whole ‘nother life to wait
To make your plans, your choices
While grass collects the dew
And few were not the same as us
How could I just think about nothing
Off and on again over and over and over
In my head, it gets lost again
Time travels over and over and over into
Just for once, not listening not talking
Conversating, I’m over and over and over it
What I said gets lost again
Translated over and over and over into

TV Show
05:32
|
|
||
|
Caffeinated, half awake
Any place where I would rather be instead
Feeling overdue like books when I’m checked out
Direct deposit something real that I can use
Whose side are you on?
The machine is getting pretty loud
But I don’t have the power yet to point it out
What came first the desert or the pyramids?
Confident or confidential, I’m confused
Whose side are you on…
If I let you go, would life be a TV Show?
