For The Birds 04:23
lyrics
buy track
This is a hard time to be pressed down and If you push any harder I’ma crack like the Birds on the ground, who, Falling hard from their limbs Don’t have any wings to save their soulds, no, The wind’s all gone from their mouths and their life’s blown out. The snow’s all gone now, I can feel my feet in the dirt, with The morning sun ushered through a millions Composed and sewn returning chirps, who, Left me for winter without a single farewell and Returned like nothing’s happened with A sweet song to make everything all right, But it’s not all right, all right? Give me your static, your vibrant greens Your lean blues and everything in between. Do you know how hard it’s been Being without you for so long? Making my way through this soundless world in A landscape devoid of color – it’s grey. Will you be my stimulation? This one’s for the birds.

Wealth is an Interpretation 03:52
lyrics
buy track
If I were to be your hero Would you be alone In all that you think that I am? There’s a prison on your pedestal That you put me on without asking me. If you pressed a little more Would I squeeze out the way you Shaped me? Who is not afraid to break the mold? I know it’s hard and cold being All alone but the reward is much Stronger than the lonesome heart it holds. I’ve got a pocket full of gold rings and Bands of invaluable things but as Wealth is an interpretation I have nothing.

My Eyes are a Frame 03:23
lyrics
buy track
Off and on now on off and on I’m Sleeping with the songs and Some are getting jealous now The others aren’t getting along and One offers another piece of the puzzle that’s Soggy from the struggle and There’s a mandolin in there somewhere I’ve got to Pull it out, before the rain starts to flake, I’ve got to pull it out. Make things look nicely when Looking for an inference and Live life with your eyes closed and Try to tell the different. Now my Mind and memory are projecting in front of Me like Polaroids in the sky and I Like to stare at what isn’t there or at Only the things that of which I am aware ‘cause I’m watching it all Happen from the back of my head. Everything’s so alive with the wantingness to die.

Sinner and a Liar 03:07
lyrics
buy track
Do what you do but don’t look and don’t think of me, I want to be left alone ‘cause I may say things that Sound like a prophecy but I’m a Sinner & A Liar like anyone. I never listen to myself or my songs But the words are sung to all those involved So I’m entwined in their meanings Because they’re mine – These chords have judgmental eyes. Now I’ma do what I’ma do but I won’t Get attached again to this version of myself ‘cause once I think I know it all I collapse: I’ma Sinner & A Liar like anyone. And if you’re afraid of being alone It’s because you’re not free – Take a look at your life and Find out what’s truly inside.

Unlikely Human Condition 05:31
lyrics
buy track
I’m too late for love and Too late for unattached action but I get a small satisfaction From these little uninvited rendezvous and I know so do you so don’t Walk away this time. The moon is like a street light, Slightly burnt out on the inside but It goes on and on day and night while It’s brown and wet outside and The sky is seeping mist from its Insides and out of its mouth and Out of its mouth the Mist shoots me down. ‘Cause I wasn’t built for happiness and This isn’t helping the medication process there’s A recess of sadness that fills my mind Day and night and they say it’s Medically and it’s on the inside they say that It may last awhile and there’s Nothing we can do except to wait it out, but I really want to know… Will you wade with me Through the sea and will you Hold my hand and Drown with me? Let’s walk out and hold out breathe.
