Hopes High 01:34
lyrics
buy track
Days are drifting sun to moon Everything new is going to be old soon Maybe we could see this through Maybe it’ll be dead before noon Walking with their hopes so high Their world is about to get wide For now it’s just alright Every morning in a row Wake up in a bed just to carry a load Never know how you have been Maybe you take it all for granted Walking with their hopes so high Their world is about to get wide The shit’s been kicked outright Walking with their hopes so high Their world is about to get wide For now it’s just alright

Me and My Friends 03:37
lyrics
buy track
Sometimes is all we do Ever pushing forward To meet our que Everybody bends Except for me and my friends Take it on Kick it with them Sometimes, somehow, and somewhere To survive is to dare Not to prove that you care Everybody bends Except for me and my friends Take it on Kick it with them Hold until our number’s looking up at the marquee Fall into formation with a wolf-like loyalty Defenders of our street Determined as athletes I’m not in search of meaning All the ancient readings Can be misleading Everybody bends Except for me and my friends Take it on Kick it with them Hold until our number’s looking up at the marquee Fall into formation with a wolf-like loyalty Defenders of our street Determined as athletes

Don't B Schooled 03:23
lyrics
buy track
So you thought by now you’d be more prolific But you have only seen the Pacific Someone turns to you and says “Hey, get with it” But what does anybody know, the heuristic? They’re making plans Give commands You say you will That’s what they like to hear But it’s not what you love to do Don’t be fooled by age old rules Schooled, so play it cool Don’t, don’t worry about the time that you’ve wasted Stop and think of all the life that you’ve tasted They’re making plans Give commands You say you will That’s what they like to hear But it’s not what you love to do Don’t be fooled by age old rules Schooled, so play it cool They say life’s short Feeling bored They say life’s short Be a good sport Get a clue Maybe they turn the screws Baby, it just won’t do Don’t be fooled by age old rules Schooled, so play it cool

Glance 03:12
lyrics
buy track
Maybe we’ll exchange a glance Meet upon a happenstance Used to hang around here too If I notice you Maybe we’ll exchange some words But I don’t think I’d find the nerve How it burst to steam Where lava meets the sea I know We fell through Leave it there and un-repaired And if the blood runs cold I’ll pretend I’m feeling bold Maybe we might even touch Either way I’d be awestruck Just to see your aging face In a common place It’s changed We fell through Leave it there and un-repaired And when you’re finally found I think you’ll come around

Snooze 04:07
lyrics
buy track
All the things that I know Don’t mean much on my pillow We’ve all got so much inside I just can’t face it so I run and hide When the evening comes, let’s snooze In the midday sun, let’s snooze What about the things left unsaid Think I’ll sleep upon it instead Out with the lights and into your bed Time to get you out of your head We’re all just drops in the stream Jump in for yourself and see what I mean Maybe I’ll rest when I’m dead Leave you to judge the life I’ve led Try and take it slow Close your eyes with the lights down low Things ain't what they seem, let’s snooze Hung up on a dream, let’s snooze You could wake yourself from sleeping But you can’t take a break from breathing Counting the decisions you dread Time to get you out of your head Just another drop in the stream Just in for yourself and see what I mean Stuck inside a theme, let’s snooze Before I make a scene, let’s snooze

Catch 22 02:46
lyrics
buy track
Fiction will fade in I read an inch between lines Deep in the spine Is a truth I can’t define Mystery solves it That’s just how it goes Nobody really knows Catch 22 I’d be damned if I knew Check your convictions Philosophers and critics The saints and the cynics All bracing for the big finish Think you’re in control now That’s just how it goes Everyone thinks they know Answer 42 I can’t explain it to you That’s just how it goes Nobody really knows Catch 22 I’d be damned if I knew I can’t explain it to you No, I can’t explain it to you

Not Trying to Find the Answers 02:31
lyrics

I was alone with my thoughts And was up too late Couldn’t change the truth Tried to change the shape You know it’s easiest to judge Hard to run the race I was aching for home But I was stuck at third base At third base When I’m done I’ll be calm Not doing this for fashion I’m not dying just to find the answers All the time There was a trailhead And I climbed a way To watch the sunset on On the interstate You know I would be home by now But the trains are running late I made a promise then But I gave it away Gave away Adventure At leisure I do it for the pleasure I’m not trying to justify the answers All the time

Shallow 03:23
lyrics
buy track
When the sky falls you’ll be telling me it’s all the same Your pride on display and it’s thicker than a lion’s mane I like to live in the flicker of a candle’s flame But you’re too good for that, too busy trying to win the game Cuz you’re shallow Bottom of the pool with you Shallow Everyone’s a fool for you Tell me Everything is easy when you’re shallow I like the breeze but you think you’re high above the earth You must be blind not to see it all for what it’s worth Cuz you’re shallow Bottom of the pool with you Shallow Everyone’s a fool for you Tell me Everything is easy when you’re shallow You make believe you have the upper hand I do my best to be the bigger man But you will try to take credit for that Applaud yourself as the diplomat Cuz you’re shallow Bottom of the pool with you Shallow Everyone’s a fool for you Tell me Everything is easy when you’re shallow

What a Thing 03:03
lyrics
buy track
Lines of love never do run smooth or so I’ve been told He makes my blood run hot, but the words all come out cold You know I’m a sullen angel, Baby, but I know romance Got ourselves locked in a tangle twisted up in this dance I’m reminded how I love you Oh, what a thing for me to do Kiss me in the dark at night where no one else can see We’ll tell tales of our past and whisper secret dreams Rolling mountain, rippling stream, my excitement’s to the brim About to burst at the seems but I’m too stubborn to let you win I’m reminded how I love you Oh, what a thing for me to do Every time you come around My web spins until it’s spiral bound Every time you come around My head spins until I hit the ground I’m reminded how I love you Oh, what a thing for me to do

Burst and Bloom 02:26
lyrics
buy track
Has time begun Or just moved on Simple as a beat The tide swiftly retreats I tread the water there a thousand frames A second I don’t have Held behind the lense cap Timeless hands I’ll never, never, never be through with you Hold me then Pause this moment Waiting there Saying that you’ll never be through with me Tell me then How time goes on At six o’clock We’re lost in talk Clueless as a deer The sun clipse on a blue sphere Timeless hands I’ll never, never, never be through with you Hold me then Pause this moment Waiting there Saying that you’ll never be through with me Tell me how All things come to burst and bloom Only to perish as soon Fixed limitless bounds Believe me now

Ever Matters Change 04:59
lyrics
buy track
I set a fiery truth with flint and spark Conveyed the fiercest truth to make cagey lips fall apart Lay it on your heart Ever matters change Why do you inspire such a thought within me Such debilitating fever that I would consider To cross the black cat's path, take it further than that I'll absorb the pressure because I'm just that certain I'd hike the ridges of your shoulder blades Shoot through the pine, sip on steam, just to prove that I'm brave Ever matters change Bracing at the start Why do you inspire such a thought within me Such debilitating fever that I would consider To cross the black cat's path, take it further than that I'll absorb the pressure because I'm just that certain
