1.
Truly Good 03:23
this feeling’s older and bigger than me yet feels distinctly mine your childhood piano whispering melodies intertwine those who feel the goodness and those who never will hold us to their trueness hold the never-willers still feel the good, truly good all hearts and roses stumbling as if forgetting our lines melodies intertwine yet feel distinctly mine as if forgetting our lines
2.
Wind 03:44
was lying when I saw you asked how I was doing I said fine thought I could ignore you you had to be the bigger man but I saw right through you when you went and held out your hand the wind comes barreling down the street like clockwork every night and pours in through my window through my window like an empty bottle whistling in the wind still makes music when i’m done drinking don’t think i’m ready to sing all those old songs again
3.
Free 03:39
floating weightless on the air see the wind blow through your hair nowhere else I’d rather be snap a highway window pic download albums for the trip open road ahead of me from city blocks to mountain tops we’re completely free hand in glove, we’re so much in love no one else but you and me good a place as any to stop turn down the radio and start to talk this is so easy
4.
you’re smoking again but you’re pulling the drag so hard it’s plain to see that your mind has been badly scarred and i’ve got to come clean your mom’s been harassing me what do I do now? now that you’ve gone away there was so much left to say you’re yelling again about the demons inside your head last time it was the monsters under your bed but what I didn’t see is how much you were scaring me sometimes I listen to your old voicemails on my phone they make me feel right at home like i’m not all alone
5.
Sticky 01:30
6.
Paradise 03:46
teach children that they must submit how long will we continue to crush their spirit? just walking home but paid the price with our lives we roll a pair a’dice when a knee is on your neck against the wall you must fight back inequity was built on lies this world it could be paradise
7.
Terry 03:06
8.
Last Place 03:12
it’s the human race and it’s coming in last place what’s done is done is done but now a year has gone upending our routines suspending all our dreams despair, and yet, reflection drives progress it’s the human race and it’s coming in last place a sticky mess drips down its face what a waste of space
9.
Fireworks 02:46
the wind behind you melts you tell a story I can’t understand until we start to laugh and I bury my face beneath both hands you don’t know how loved you are fireworks like a shooting star can’t stop laughing bolt of lightning brightens up your smile can’t tell how long that we’ve been kissing but it’s been a while
10.
Here 03:03
everyone is listening but no one is transmitting they are here undetected they are here unacknowledged nature of intelligent life is to destroy itself
11.
seems all we do is struggle to get through this hellscape make something new tired and bored drinking wine hating ourselves all the time then we apologize for showing up decidedly late then leaving early and taking long breaks left following our only dream on nights and weekends and in between trip for two endless blue we’re through what we used to do hard to choose what’s new but we’ll make do wishing that we could depend on life staying here instead just keep hoping in our head
