So Close
03:04

Recklessly divide up all the junk that we've acquired
You can keep the television and the sofa too
I remember trying sometimes you'd just yawn and shrug
We both deserve happiness and that's not what we
Had in the long run
Stare into the sun
Everything is different now
Hold my head up high
Take it on the chin
I'm sorry this is what I do
Sorting out my feelings
This is not all about
You're not a bad guy
You really did try
Everything is better now
Hold your head up high
Cut my hand
I wasn't all alone
Check my head
I've never felt so close
So close so close

Two Actors

Stop making everything so black and white
It’s so reductive, so reductive
Do what you love best, don’t second guess
Be honest, do the work, now do the work again
Don’t act, react, don’t sit and wait for something good to happen
Take advantage, breathe, and pay attention to the present moment
It defines you
Riddled with doubts
Looming apocalyptic ingenue
Don’t shut me out
I’m human too, Imperfect just like you
Fool, fool
Retrace your steps, mining the depths
Get real, now do the work, now do the work again
Tenacity and patience are the key
Would you agree
Would you agree
Riddled with doubts
Looming apocalyptic ingenue
Don’t shut me out
I’m human too, Imperfect just like you
Fool, fool
Simply to notice whatever appears
In each moment
Not to change it
Nor improve it
Nor be rid of it

Brightly Reflected
02:45
|
|||
These are the facts
Brightly reflected on the surface we lack
Try to relax
Just let it happen, there is no turning back
Everybody needs somebody else
Is there someone else
No regrets, we were kids
We did the best that we could do
Throw no shade, for the kids
Forever tangled up with you
Is there someone new
Everybody needs somebody else
Is there someone else

Begin Again
03:47
|
|||
Amber flashing lights
Composure, forest for the trees
Slowly thawing ice
Thrashing and new, no guarantees
Flourish and decline
And now ascend
Drinking up the sights
Pull over, climb into the weeds
Tags cover the sign
Slick morning dew, late winter breeze
Probably not tonight
So out of tune
Holy number nine
Begin again
Clairvoyant device
Passed over, less than six degrees
Debtors know the price
Protest, lament, forgiveness please
Flourish and decline
And now ascend
Holy number nine
Begin again
Bird has flown
There’s nothing carved in stone
Bird has flown
There’s nothing carved in stone
I’m feeling lucky
Do your worst
I’m feeling lucky
Do your worst

Highway Gothic
03:40

Giving up
Slowing down
For the night
In a two-star motel
Where I dream
That I die
And come back
But I’m still just myself
Why can’t I just let you go
Why can’t I just let you go
We’ve been down this road before
I’m awake
So I rise
Fill my tank
And I’m back on the move
I do fine by myself
But the silence keeps whispering of you
Why can’t I just let you go
Why can’t I just let you go
Why can’t I just let you go
Why can’t I just let you go
We’ve been down this road before
Why can’t I just let you

Forever Distracted
03:10
|
|||
Could try to explain
Although nobody’s asking
Whatever it takes
Wait another day or two
Just enough to make it through
I like it this way
Don't you, don’t you
So glad to be here
Forever distracted
I think I might stay
Wait another day or two
Just enough to make it through
I like it this way
Don't you, don’t you
You don’t deserve this
You don’t deserve this at all

Lost in the Fadeout

Public display
Smile and wave
Lost in the fadeout
Total cliche
Acting my age
Lost in the fadeout
You can't edit me now
Lost in the fadeout
You can't edit me now
Lost in the fadeout
Lost in the fadeout
Lost in the fadeout
Avaricious fool
You can't edit me now
Lost in the fadeout
Blinded by your nose
You can't edit me now
Lost in the fadeout
What can I say
Whom will they blame
Lost in the fadeout
I'm not afraid
I'll find a way
Lost in the fadeout
Avaricious fool
You can't edit me now
Lost in the fadeout
Blinded by your nose
You can't edit me now
Lost in the fadeout

2009

Some sow instructs Minerva
No pearls before the swine
Out to lunch but maybe
You’ll see your reflection in a mirror
Running out of time the revelator
Take your place in line
I've seen behind the curtains
Beyond the chalk outline
You were once a baby
Desperate for your mother’s full attention
And some father time is not a healer
You were never mine
I will not play the victim
Your curse will not be mine
Erase your imprint daily
All good fallen leaves should curse their branches
Since 2009
Time is not a healer
You were never mine
I will not play the victim
Or wither on the vine
