All things considered
I haven't changed, not a bit
Sneaking out in daylight
Overwhelmed and uptight
I've been told "You want to be
A rebel, but you're a good girl"
A plague of a label
They painted by numbers
Every lame expectation
The bird, it picked up two stones
Built itself a decent wall
I can sit and simmer
'Til I'm dry of all vexation
Tame the pillowed eyes
Yesterday was alright
And maybe if I should die (go home)
A woman out alone at night (I told you so)
At least you'll know I surely lived
Looking through a tunnel
Every threat you did perceive
But how many were wrong
I can't sit still anymore
No one's going to hold your hand
Through every worthy gamble
To weather this mess well
Tame the pillowed eyes
Yesterday was alright
And maybe if I should die (go home)
A woman out alone at night (I told you so)
At least you'll know I surely lived
All things considered
I haven't changed, not a bit
Reaping in the moment
With a horse's manic force
I think I could hold my hand
And it's a worthy gamble
To weather this mess well

Lattice Bends

Lattice bends
Punctured shadows
Watermelon sky
Citronella nights
Get it behind me
Dips in the highway
And ditches in the sand
Barking frustration
What a shame
My thoughts were all flames
Now a pile of ash
Watered down things
Travel span
Charted courses
Patterns of migration
Waste management
The edge of
Your property
My defensive nature
Can make you seem sinister
What a shame
My thoughts were all flames
Now a pile of ash
Watered down things

Same Ground

Say I've got the jitters, pour out the coffee
Here I have a grown willow tree
Oh, a place for all of my dogs to sleep
'Til I call them to wake
How can you put me down
Walk the same ground
Lucky for me
Transition before you make me drown
What can I say
Walk the same way
Places clouded
Paths are cluttered
Minds are molding clay
Guess I've made up a bed
Now I'm sleeping in
Keep below, hope you don't
Have to take it on the chin
Enough to smother one of your
Pie eating grins
Calling the dogs to wake
How can you put me down
Walk the same ground
Lucky for me
Transition before you make me drown
What can I say
Walk the same way
Places clouded
Paths are cluttered
Minds are molding clay
Maybe I quit
Failed to commit, yet
I love you still
Recalling the thrills spent
How can you put me down
Walk the same ground
Lucky for me
Transition before you make me drown
What can I say
Walk the same way
Places clouded
Paths are cluttered
Minds are molding clay

Valleys and Avenues

Skyline descending
Through the valleys and the avenues
Railways and ravines
I need to leave, I'll meet you beneath the eaves
It's the chlorine
Staying inside to beat the heat
Squeeze every bitter drop from a day
A real lemon of a day
Horizon expanding
Mental weather scales the velvet sky
Steals the air from my cheeks
The sight of mountains from the Gold Line
It's the chlorine
Staying inside to beat the heat
Squeeze every bitter drop from a day
A real lemon of a day
