Come Song 03:35
You sound so pretty when you cum Though it's only happened once Want to do it all the time I just want to make you shake Doesn't matter if it's fast or slow 'cause you sound so beautiful I'm addicted to the sound. And I want to pin you to the ground and never let you up 'cause we're never coming down. All the people think I'm high, But I swear I haven't touched the stuff in weeks, you just make me weak at the knees. I'm addicted to the sound. I try not to care if he should ever go away If the moment's passed I will probably feel that too But right now I'm seduced by the very thought of you.

I'll lead, if you'll follow But I can't if you won't and there's only one way to know You take a bite, but don't swallow And I don't want to come between everything that you've got going on with him Out on a limb Are my fingers touching your skin Out on a limb I get my feet wet, but I don't swim I give what I can But you don't give a damn I'll call, if you'll answer But I'm so sick of waiting for you to respond when you never seem to You defer all my questions, but I can't keep from asking you more and again 'cause I want to know, oh oh Out on a limb Are my fingers writing you again Out on a limb My feet walk in your direction, oh no no I give what I can But you don't give a damn

I was captivated by the way you seemed to look into everyone's eyes. I was captivated by your ways and then my heart capsized. I was laughing like I was in love. I was smiling like I was on E. You bring all of that out of me. Chorus: When you hit the stage at night. When your brow faces up to the light. You make my eyes spill all of their blue. Oh, I just want to know you. When you hold your notes long at the end of a song I feel your mouth creep right into my throat. It resonates inside my chest and elopes with my guts to my toes. I was fizzy like I was champagne, body pounding like mallets on drums, bum, bum, bum... You lasso my soul in a hum. Chorus

I like when our words fail and we use our lips instead I know you will meet me, in the space that's always left I like when our bodies start to move into a rhythm Hands pressed into soft skin like you want more of me in But now I know, that closeness requires letting go After summer's heat, along will come the snow. Lately I've been thinking 'bout someone who's meant for me might be an illusion, but it's one I'd like to see The world of someone else, can be very complicated But so am I, it's time that I got more acquainted With my loneliness, until it finally leaves me alone. Why be afraid when the sun has to set? Why not rest deep in aloneness and forget? Why be afraid when the sun has to set? Oh, you know, it's not time to die yet? Now I know, that closeness requires letting go, My loneliness finally left me alone.

An octopus umbrella galaxy and a valentine. When you sidle up right next to me all the stars align like we're under the sea or swimming in an endless sky. Do you wanna be mine? Cause I've been wondering all of the time if someone could come ease my mind... That someone's you. An octopus umbrella galaxy is a beautiful sight. Feels like I'm the first to feast my eyes upon the like. And none have come before and none will come after you all life. I've been yours since the first night that we spoke til the morning. Wondering all of the time if someone could come ease my mind... That someone's you. Don't change a thing.

Found A Love 04:26
The stars in the sky are burning And the leaves on the trees are turning red Like memories intensified from all this time My heart is waiting and it's ready to ignite The light from your eyes is burning And both of my lips are yearning For hours that turn, and returning I'm just trying to make enough light, enough light For you tonight, and I hope you see, the stars tonight Cause I have found a love, a love, I have found a love, oh-- The fall spends all it's time waiting For the days to quit getting shorter For the holidays, for the holidays And I'm so thankful, I'm so thankful Cause i have found your love, your love, And I will wait as long as it takes, oh, and you will be in my arms. Trees have no leaves when they're waiting and they don't have enough And then the rain comes and expands a new layer in their trunks And I believe I have been shrinking in my own skin Waiting for you to come back in. I've been waiting here for you, and I don't know just what to do.
7.
Let's remove the layers separating me from you. All our clothes are misty from the weather. I could skin you alive and proudly hang the hide upon my living room wall. Trying not to worship you is all I can do. Let's connect the circles that propel us towards the sun. Let's connect the submarines to spaceships and open plains. I could trek into your mind and set up camp for a time and be so happy. I am sending messages inside of a wormhole. You can pick up packages at all the little mailboxes nestled in your curly head. You hold all the lightness and the weight.
8.
Be With Mine 04:06
Be with Mine Heavy heart, I'll be with you tonight I'm always trying to look on the bright side. I'll take you out to downtown, just you and I The road are blocked, the traffic's thick, I start to cry. I start to cry I start to cry I used to see your face more than my own I used to hear your words more than my own I used to feel your skin more than my own I used to feel your love more than my own What's there to feel, in my bones? What's there to feel? It's kind of funny, it's kind of sad how it's so easy to hold the hand of someone else in their imperfection-- Why can't I, why can't I be with mine? Be with mine, why can't I? Be with mine I believe my heart was made to heal Was made to breathe in love, and then exhale And with each breathe released, I can choose The song I sing I'll let it out, let it out I start to cry So much to feel Be with mine, be with mine Heavy heart, I'll be with you tonight.

Evergreens 03:32
smells like sun through the trees slit like needles, five pointed stars four leaf clover hearts. I dream of evergreens. lips blow hollow melodies in bottles the last golden sips eyes crinkle with the leaves that crunch beneath our feet how nice it would be if you were to love me but it's been a disaster in reality. I've dreamed up everything... we did those long car rides around the states every CD we made, spot we stopped, skip in your speech sometimes I speed to you but it's over now, you're no longer in your parents' house second, yellow, straight, and to the left my warbled memory. I dream of evergreens. I've dreamed up everything. I dream of ever-after ever-more and Everclear I would serve inside a chalice to kill a king. Everything. everything.

The Fall 04:05
11.
Little twist of a smile your right eye trembles at the edges you said, she ruled in a Machiavellian style I wonder if I'm seeing emulation for the way she makes them wear their hearts upon their sleeves for her and always they believe that she can give them what they need. Smooth with your words soft with your tongue, so easy for you to tell me that I'm the only one. But I've got a feeling that I've tried to tuck away. Maybe I'm crazy, maybe I am crazy but I've gotta live with myself at the end of the day. The way you make them wear their hearts upon their sleeves for you and always they believe that you can give them what they need. The way you make me wear my heart upon my sleeve for you and always I believe that you can give me what I need. (silly me).

Migration 05:38
I was waiting for forgiveness and it came right down Like rain, like rain just falling. I was waiting for an answer and you waited too, But it didn't come, no it didn't come from you It came from the window's small view. I was waiting for a reason, and no reasons came Like birds, like birds just flying. I wonder if they know it's getting warmer As they fly south into the clouds And we keep going, not knowing what's next. We can't know now. I am ready to choose my freedom and the courage came And now I'm free to change, I'm free to change each day. But I didn't know, that you'd have to go away If you could hold me in the tide I am in, then you would be the moon and I'd be changing with you. credits

I'm not angry at you babe I just don't know what to do with these expectations Shot up like skyscrapers I'm in their shadow I turn around, what to do now? It feels like freedom when you leave them going their own way, But it's hard to let go of expectations and know that I'm okay. There's truth behind the way you find Your sense of self and your peace of mind Oh and it feels like freedom when you leave them going their own way But it's hard to let go of my expectations and know that I'm okay, oh I'm okay. It's not just you, it's not just me It's not our bodies though that's how we see. The air that breathes in you and me The sound of our voices, it makes me believe When we're covered in dust, and our bodies leave We will return to this harmony. It's not just you, it's not just me All of existence is yearning to sing And when we do, it sounds so true Our breath on the wind, so much joy coming in There's nothing I can do, nothing I can do, except sing and smile and be thankful to you. There's truth behind the way you find Your sense of self, and your peace of mind.

The Flow 05:26
If you're hurting It's just a call from your body, Wanting to heal, wanting to heal. So unstop the blocks and just unlock the locks, unstop the blocks and just unlock the locks, 'cause I'm reading to flow. I found out my light was just trying to shine brighter, and new. The sensation is tingling, when the path has been blocked but it's suddenly open And our blood moves through highways of veins Pumping through rhythm chamber, chambers And I don't think we are ever the same. No we are never, never the same. I found out my light was just trying to shine brighter, and true. Try and figure it out, but there's nothing to know: Enter the flow.
