Wake Up (Who's There)

Wake up, who's there?
I don't know
Wake up, who's there?
I don't know
It's you, it's me, it's her
The rocks, the trees, it's her
Wake up, who's there?
Wake up, who's there?
Your home blows away with the wind
The whole world needs a friend
Listen to life, let life live
Feel the love coming in
It's you, it's me, it's her
The rocks, the trees, it's her
Wake up, who's there?

Whatever You Do

Life that bleeds is a life that loves
Can’t stop the dreams, can’t stop the blood
I wanna bleed with everyone
I wanna dream with everyone
Whatever you do you can’t get it all right
I’ve thought it through a thousand times
I wanna bleed with everyone
I wanna dream with everyone
Rain falls on the roof of my house
Falling in and falling out
I’ve been shaking like a train
Every trace is washed away
My mind comes and my mind goes
In between, behind the scenes, front row
I wanna bleed with everyone
I wanna dream with everyone
A life that bleeds is a life that loves
Can’t stop the dreams, can’t stop the blood
I wanna bleed with everyone
I wanna dream with everyone

Slow Touch
03:48

Don't blasphemy feel like a game changer
So much movement, comes from anger
Tango a depth charge, deep in my mind
Down around the bar sweetheart, to unwind
Let the ship sink with the tide
Let the heatwave be on my side
Focus on the neckline, take it all in
Nothing but the slow touch coming
Easy and gentle, time’s slowing
Truth finds the clear kind wide open
Let the words follow my heart
Let the tricks fall back to the start
I receive everything you tell me
Like it or not, completely
Harmonies tremble
Fog's lifting
It's at the heart of something
Shifting

No Man

Reality waits for no man
Reality, try to let it be
When you don’t know you try too hard
When you don’t know the beating of your heart
Come close, I don’t understand
Come close and open up your hand
When you don’t know you try too hard
When you don’t know the beating of your heart
And you wait, you just can’t wait
Mistake after mistake
Reality waits for no man

Sunshine
02:53

|

Thoughts keep coming back to me
I can’t get em off my back
I’m running through a stream
Of consciousness traps
I’m stepping out into the sunshine
Got too much time in my head
I’m stepping out just for a minute
I’ll be back, can’t figure it out

The Ways
04:13

There’s no end to the ways we can hurt one another
When you’re walking the river and I’m on the other side
I’ll try to pull you over
Open up my eyes
There’s no end to the ways we can hurt one another
I would climb a mountain with you on my back
The summer is ending
Your bags are packed
There’s no end to the ways we can hurt one another

Stranger Days
04:25
|
|

|
Far away your hands build some flood plain contraption
And the blood stained lands get a little stranger
My days blend into one with restless boredom
Just fake it till it feels good
Rain storm comin'
I can see it in the sky
The water plays tricks on your eyes
Drivin' all day, you end up in the same way
I thought I picked up on some silent motion
Movin' sparks around in our eyes
Where did it come from?
This ideal attraction
Just fake it till it feels good
Lost sleep, fear, release
Try to take it easy
The plans you catch yourself makin'
Dreaming away, the moment you wake up and there goes the day
You go a long way for true eyes
By now they don't take long to recognize
Cause in my own way I know
It just wants to go slow

Back For More
04:23
|
|

|
Moon rises with a full heart
Going nowhere for a start
Crying eyes forgive now
Rain at night and dust in the sunlight
The hard times are over, you've said that before
You’ll wake up tomorrow and you’ll be back for more
Shadows in the spotlight, you’re in the crowd
You see yourself in everyone else now
Mountain or an altar, escape or sacrifice
When the day breaks all you’re left with is the light
Hard times are over, you’ve said that before
You’ll wake up tomorrow and you’ll be back for more

Bright & Early
03:24
|
|
||
|
Woke up bright and early
A fleeting sense of urgency
Felt the mountain breeze
It's quiet here, this time of day
The mist got burned away
Floated off like a canopy
A feverish dream state
Am I asleep, or awake?
The last thing, we do
Didn't want to lose you
