Debt 04:27
I am so worn down by the things I don’t understand and I stand so still, I’ve no means to separate to differentiate myself; from the passing time between you and I from a clever line and my conscious mind from my selfishness and our differences // But I am the same as the ones I love just waiting for a change, a chance to rearrange but thats the price you pay …I guess thats the price you pay

Seasons 04:06
City summer is dethroned, my senses change, they rearrange, they fold Just grasp this past year by its throat, its pen thick skin, its all I’ve ever known Well the season change like nothing else my secrets grow, its show and tell and I show. Or does it show? Well the tea is cold, I’ve told it all I spilled the paint and I let it fall awry so its three months clean to fix it all its a ladder climb, its a slow trust fall to breath, to let it go. So show me how to grow, my love just show me how to know myself enough well enough is enough, I know myself and I’ve seen the change like no one else has known So let me fade from what I’ve known my reflection’s changed, its growth I go, I grow. Because I’ve been dancing in the dark I’ve been living in my dreams, I know, I know.

I. In this place I know I’m not alone on my own in places that I’ve known red and white, red and white II. the color, the shape the reason they wanted but the scene plays over and empty room and I know how it ends III. oh my god, its a million miles away.
4.
Give Up 04:13
Everything turns off. everything turned off again, you know? and in my head its fine, in my dreams its alright again. but you can’t give up this time. because in my head its fine in my dreams its alright again and still I’m chasing planes around my head. you can’t give up this time you can’t give up this time you can’t give up this time
5.
Call My Name 03:45
As my veins come to a close my curtain draws on tight. I take it slow for a while. If I were you, I’d do the same and I’d sharpen all my knives for better days Well she licks her lips and curls her tongue like crashing waves. they chased you out of the dream. Now the years just pass me by and the weight will slowly lift we live on our own, I know. I can feel it now. So I listen close to the sound as it grows and I stare deep into the well of it So if my words don’t do the trick and my voice can’t hold the pitch If my ears don’t ring, call my name.
6.
Tiny Hands 02:17
Will you live in a house full of dreams where your tiny hands reach for ceilings? But you know that its the only place you'll call home. While your collection collects dust, you arraign And it rusts your dream away. But you know that its the only place you'll call home So don't go away.
7.
You were a vagabond to me then just waiting for the seas so change, a summers end and I am torn between the new and old and never coming back again. But I’d do anything for this But I’d do anything to make it change A subtle taste of the absolute and some sharp tongued truth a bay breeze blown onto my lips and I’m sinking again If I could shake the weight of this consciousness you’d never find me back again, and again, and again, and again. So save me some space to carry on, I’ll hold this in my heart.
8.
Story 05:34
Its creeping in tonight, this fear runs deep in my bones and my blood just boils in my veins so I’m digging holes tonight and I’m sailing away I’m driving slow tonight, I just watch the world as it sleeps because thats all I know to do when I’m overwhelmed by the spin. and all these ghosts I’ve known I’ve known they just fill the space that they’ve been its another story told from far away with the distance closed, and I’m not home So lets make this real tonight because I’m so damn sick of these dreams I’ve got memories to chase and a million miles to run So I’m not coming home tonight you can leave my things to dust something I’ve never seen is just waiting in the wake of a story told So I’m sailing away
9.
You turn back the days and wait for this to pass get on a westward plane to save you some time to let this change your mind like it changed mine but i’ve got the time and god I know that nothing new can grow from this the coasts will split and shift and fade away with it. But I’ll go if you go. Find what you’ve been looking for where this began, where I am but not who I’ve been.
