Love #1

are we singing right now
or are we spilling our guts
are we finding our way
or are we making it up
once you really look around
those eyes’ll never ever shut
i was there when it happened
this screaming and clapping tonight
and this love that i’ve heard of
so easily stirred up tonight
if it’s heartache that you want
well we’re fresh out
but you can have a kiss from god
that will make your soul shout
i was there when it happened
this screaming and clapping tonight
and this love that i’ve heard of
so easily stirred up tonight
are we putting up a wall
or are we breaking it down
i was there when it happened
this screaming and clapping tonight
and this love that i’ve heard of
so easily stirred up tonight

The River & The Valley

i was down by the river
when i found my religion
in the sound of the shivering clay
o my brothers and sisters,
in a thought or a whisper
who might drown in the river today?
i surrender, you surrender
by september, we’ll remember love
o you gotta wake up
o you gotta get up
o you gotta give up now
i was lost in the valley
singing o, singing sadly
my lament, my finale, my dirge
i was there when it happened
there was no thunder clapping
just a story unwrapping, submerged
i surrender, you surrender
by november, we’ll remember love
o you gotta wake up
o you gotta get up
o you gotta give up now
we go on and on and on until we go on up

if i said the accident was real
how long would it take for you to heal
ravaged mind turning like a wheel
if i said the accident
you’re waiting you’re waiting you’re waiting
would you light a candle for the prey
one who left the world in smoke and flame
would you mend your memory
you’re waiting you’re waiting you’re waiting
everybody, you’re so fine
everybody, i love you right now
everybody, you’re alright
everybody, i love you right now

you’re on the ground again
you’re on the ground again
your heart, it won’t quite mend
the cold, it can’t pretend
you’re on the ground again
would you say you mean it and only mean it today?
you’re on your own again
you’re on your own again
you don’t have time to spend
with prayers that never end
you’re on your own again
would you say you mean it and only mean it today?
would you say you love me and only love me today?
would you hold my shadow and throw my body away?
i can hear your loneliness
but i cannot belong to this
with everything you don’t begin to say
underneath your godlessness
the emptiness astonishes
like all the quiet promises you splay
would you say you mean it and only mean it today?
would you say you love me and only love me today?
would you hold my shadow and throw my body away?
nothing ever satiates you
we just sit here, waiting for the snow

i just want to sit in my room and cry, hang my head in shame and die
there’s no use having your shoulder now; a shovel puts me in the ground
i was there, waiting for you to come home and be my friend
i was scared you’d left that morning, never to return again
and the story goes
when i was sad i sadly knew you badly
spent my nights all taking off my muscles in a grey
at first the bubble didn’t burst
i was helpless and lonely and scant
but worse, you put me in a hearse
in your heart in your head in your hands
i had no second chance
i just want to sit in my room and cry, hang my head in shame and die
there’s no use having your shoulder now; a shovel puts me in the ground
i was there, waiting for you to come home and be my friend
i was scared you’d left that morning, never to return again
and the story goes
when i was hard i hardly knew you partly
i did what my body told me to pretty much everyday
at first the bubble didn’t burst
i was helpless and lonely and scant
but worse, you put me in a hearse
in your heart in your head in your hands
i had no second chance
web of lies, you’re the monster in my life, the monster
moment of truth, you’re my memory and my fear in concert
i was there, waiting for you to come home and be my friend
i was scared you’d left that morning, never to return again
i just want to sit in my room and cry

the falling leaves drift by the window
the autumn leaves of red and gold
i see your lips, the summer kisses
the sunburned hands i used to hold
now since you went away, the days grow long
and soon i'll hear old winter's song
but i miss you most of all, my darling
when autumn leaves begin to fall
when autumn leaves begin to fall

Photographs + Maps

you’re painting on the facts
leaving for a while
photographs and maps
going out of style
cover up your tracks
before you crack a smile
you’re burning it down
you’re falling apart
you’re losing your mind
you’re damning it all
you’re giving it up
have you read this book
written by the sun
take a second look
you’re not the only one
burning it down
you’re falling apart
you’re losing your mind
you’re damning it all
you’re giving it up
you cannot be confined
to what you love and lend
you’re leaving it behind
making it pretend
you’re burning it down
you’re falling apart
you’re losing your mind
you’re damning it all
you’re giving it up
