Bound

Well I don’t think I’ve had one coherent thought
Since you walked through my front door
An evening lived out - a fantasy
Left me wanting so much more
Can’t sleep I feel sick at the thought of how bad it could be or how good
But it don’t stop me thinking of crops we could plant songs written names carved in wood
Put a crack in my dam now I’m caving in fast
Just the thought of your beard makes me shiver
If you’re willing to wait I can bake us a cake and you can throw your suitcase in the river
And I just want to write one line worthy of your name
If you hold me again just like you did I’ll do anything that you say
I’m bound to your smile the crinkle of your eyes
I could die send my heart in a letter
But nothing compares to your face in my hair
And cold whiskey kisses forever
And I just want to write one line worthy of your name
If you hold me again just like you did I’ll do anything that you say

Why do we all do it?
We’re all just waiting for the next big thing
When you said only one thing kept you
I knew it wasn’t me
Knew I’d never be
Now I think I get it
you stay in the dark too long and your heart turns to dust
I thought you were a ray of light
But I was wrong
I thought I saw the point
But now it’s gone
I can’t wait too much longer
Been let down too many times for me to open up my eyes
Oh honey it ain’t your fault
There were many came before they’ll be many more again
But if you go take me with you
I was lookin’ for the sun til I remembered it went out
And we’re both scared that we’re just fuckups
Everybody’s so deceived they’re lookin through the silver screen
But you’re not mine and I am nobody’s
Let’s continue our deception under guise of best perceptions
I thought I cared but now I know
I really don’t
I thought that I was better now I know
It’s in my bones
Sometimes I think I’ve fooled myself
What’s the difference anyway if I’ve fooled everybody else
Some things I do just to feel
Trapped in my whirl of clouds surreal what is thought and what is reel
But you’re not the one who’s gonna bring me light again
Gotta stay here for a while til I remember how to smile
On my own so I can see the stars again
If I travel far enough maybe one day you’ll call my bluff
I thought I gave a damn
But then I gave it back
I thought that you were capable of love
But then you shrugged

Pretty Words
02:01
|
|||
|
All my pretty words
Someone before me said so well
And all my bright ideas
Flew the brighter path to hell
The things I used to know
I left behind me in the road
And tenderness I’ve held
Has hardened to a shell
With my heart in hand so sharp
I go lookin like a shark
A victim in the night
ThAt might restore my life
The problem with your ego death
Comes with a lot of restlessness
Much less intrigue therein
When you ain’t the heroine
Run away from snipping doubt
That now it’s just an endless drought
Those nights when you were young
They got swallowed on your tongue
But don’t worry
There’s always drinks to drown in
And new love to make
And old love to take
Your medicine’s less tasty when you’re
Laying on the floor
Where else left to lay
When there’s nothing left to pour
The days ahead will eat you up
If you don’t set your store
Hold on to those dreams
Even as they melt the doors
And I’ll always be with you
Even when we’re far away oh
Can’t let go of scars
When their making played a part
Don’t ever forget me
My one significance
Strum me out so bright
Sing my colors all night
All my pretty words
Someone before me said so well
And all my bright ideas
Flew the brighter path to hell

Erase
02:13
|
|||
|
Fixated on you
Like I was staring at the moon
But you didn’t leave me any room
I couldn’t make you stay
You were always meant to go away
And leave me with so much to say
You bathed me in your light
At the time it felt so right
Now I know that kind of love’s a lie
Now I live in a shadow
My mind’s a book that stays closed
An ocean trench nobody knows
I thought you really saw me
But when you were loving me
I was already a memory
Go on and take the rest of the love I gave
I’ll be erasing my face

Desert Mountains
02:58
|
|||
|
I left my heart in the desert mountains
Went looking for what I don’t know but i found it
To hear that earth breathing sure got my heart poundin
Don’t know who to be nos I’m leaving without it
Leaving you there hurts almost as much
Though I know our souls were just meant to brush
We found out the stone and that night we both dug
But I wonder if we were still after a rush
The plains in the east don’t soothe my soul none
I long for the kiss of the cool desert sun
Was it a dream or were we just young
To think we could find it all if we run
Far enough
Far enough
Far enough
Far enough

13th and Broadway
03:37
|

|
I been waiting for you baby
On 13th and broadway
It’s like I cant stop my forgetting
You’re 1300 miles away
And I don’t know if it would be any different
If you knew how to love me right
why can’t you take me into your arms
Am I not the brightest in your eyes
You’ve always lingered on the streets here
On every sign I see your name
You come and go like I’m an idea
Before you write me float away
And I don’t know if it would be any different
If you knew how to love me right
You’re my muse forever pulling songs out
I’d trade em all to have you in my sight
I been spending nights a drinkin
Alone pretending you’re right next to me
I can almost taste your presence
But it’s just my silly memories
And I don’t know if it would be any different
If you knew how to love me right
Day we met you pulled my thread now I’m undone
Since you left your grip is just as tight
I been aching for you baby
On the chattahoochee highways
So if you don’t want to love me
Please stay gone for my sake

Circles
02:36
|

|
Does your heart ever grow tired
Of moving on
Do you miss
All the places you’ve been even once
Does the moon make your heart hurt
When you know you’re not where you’re supposed to be
Can you feel that I’m not there
Anymore
Do our hearts travel in circles
Is the love real in the middle
Do I miss the past
Or just what isn’t here
Will it always feel this lonely
Even when my bed is shared
Can my heart hold again
Even as I breathe
The wind will carry me

Spring in the Valley
02:40
|
|||
|
Every spring I’m pulled back home
By the memories sunk in my bones
And it’s some kind of comfort I find there
The air speaks to me
All the secrets in humidity
Every bit of me is in those layers
In that space I sing
Cause my heart holds onto things
That dig into me and give me wear
The lonely heart will hunt all through the night
I’ll forget the sun til sunrise
Even as the world’s on fire
There’s a spot outside of time
In the glimmer when my soul rides on the air
There are rooms they’ll never know
Some seeds’ll never grow
You can find me holdin in valley fair
The lonely heart will hunt all through the night
I’ll forget the sun til sunrise

Tower
02:22
|
|||
|
There’s a tower you been building in my mind
That lets me climb so high I walk on clouds into the sky
But it sure as hell looks like a long way down
Will you still know me if I’m looking from
the ground
We could build each other ladders to the stars
I could hold you in the ocean of my arms
We could fall so far we break the threads within
Don’t know if we could stitch it back again
But the tower keeps on growing like a tree
Cause my every thought is water to that seed
So I guess I may as well enjoy this ride
Cause it ain’t gon stop no matter how I sigh
If you’ve got time I’d love some company
We’ll laugh when we don’t know the words to speak
If you get scared I’ll find a song to sing
And you can hold me up when I’m dizzy
And if we fall at least we saw for miles
And got to dance inside each other’s smiles
So let’s cloud gaze as long as time allows
That’s all I’ve ever wanted anyhow

Sad Sack
04:21
|
|||
|
It's a simple life we tell ourselves
so we can get by
but waking up feels like a lie when in my dreams I could fly
I'm just another sad sack
trying to hide when I cry
wouldn't believe me when I told ya sometimes I dream of dying
'Cause maybe there's more for me next time
Maybe then I'll really fly
but for now i'm laying on the lonely ground asking myself why
Maybe I'm missing the point
but aren't we all?
I just want to have someone to hold
while I'm still standing tall
Feel like fruit on a tree
too ripe I might fall
Is anyone listening
can anyone hear my call?
I've got stage fright sitting on a shelf
in your sky
It was so nice when you said
you wanted me for your wife
but it was so trite I should've known
you were as high as a kite
I should've known you would never be mine
Can't say I don't hate ya
but I can't say I do
but I'lll never forgive you
for not being able to choose
once you figure out
what all you've got lose
that's when you'll be sitting in the late night blues

I’m as young as I’ll ever be
I’m as old as I’ve ever been
The years get closer now
Forgot the times I’ve spent
And I don’t know if I will find you
Might just melt into the stars
weary of a time confined to
Wonder how far is my part (?)
Faces pass me by
All start to look the same
Each one only reminds
Of ones before who knew my name
The memories they keep getting dimmer
The future is an empty space
Stevie said she’s fraid of changing
Well that’s starin down 28
Strange times we’re livin in
But all that goes has gone before
The veil is feelin thin
Shadows underneath the door
And I’m so scared there’s really nothin’
Worth staking all my birthright for
Show me a flame that keeps burnin
Stronger than the nothing’s roar
Which way is right and wrong
Maybe it’s just left or right
The valley stretches long
But on the mountain I can fly (?)
Wanna let my love grow bigger
Than all the empty space inside
Be the leader from the darkness
Remember every piece of light
I’m as young as I’ll ever be
past already came and went
I’m old enough to see
That life is in this moment

Not Knowing
01:50
|

|
Singing my own song
Never looked this lonely
Did I miss my chance
Could you see me wholly
Or is this what it is
To look up without knowing
But nothing
you could
do or say
would send me back there
I may be lonesome
But now I have tasted
the moonbeam
