Caught
04:21
|

Up and down the line
In search of where I stand
Forming all the terms
But never the right words
I long to vocalize my desires
But my conscience blocks the way
So many words caught in my throat
I don't know when to release them
I think I should try to wait till
My heart and my mind agree
Back and forth inside
I long to, yet I shouldn't
Intuition before impulse
A hard thing to tame when
My heart's a spastic mess
Playing on the offbeat of my mind
So many words caught in my throat
I don't know when to release them
I think I should try to wait till
My heart and my mind agree
With all these words caught in my throat
I don't think I should release them
I think I should try to stay away
Till my heart and my mind agree

Morning, Memory
03:46
|
|||
Welcoming the light
Breath of fresh air
Eyes swollen tight
I’m dreaming of your stare
Morning
Memory
In my waking life
I’ve learned to repress
But sleep, how it is rife
With what goes unexpressed
Morning
Memory
Meandering
I’ll see you tonight
We’ll embrace tonight
I’ll smile tonight
You’ll be there tonight
Morning
Memory
Meandering
Through melodies
And maladies

Phantom Power
03:06
|
|||
It’s gone away
The echo of things that you said
Seeds planted
That flourished inside of my head
Paralyzed
I was paralyzed
But you will drain me no more
Phantom Power
You had your way
Left a mark deep in my soul
Those weeds uprooted
When I learned that I have control
Revitalized
I am revitalized
And you will drain me no more
Phantom Power

Nebulust
04:08
|
|||
Hearts floating in the galaxy
Shooting stars across your eyes
Connect the dots of the outer glows
From far beyond the sky
Soaring sparks of vivid color
Dashing through your iris
Joining streams of inner currents
A chemical virus
Oh, Nebulust
Bodies of celestial
Orbit slowly deep in the night
And hidden holes of gravity
Pull with all their might
Soaring sparks of vivid color
Dashing through your iris
Joining streams of inner currents
A chemical virus
Oh, Nebulust

Dark (Resolution)
02:58
|
|||
Coming back from a silent ride
Separate hands and foreword eyes
Close the door and off the light
Keeping sure of little sight
You turned to the other side
I watched with tired eyes
You began to go to sleep
I lay with fury deep
Staring down the blackened sky
Watching spots adjust my eyes
Listening to your breathing rise
Feeling my heat subside
You reversed and touched my side
I looked with pardoned eyes
Your breath upon my cheek
We wiped the matter clean

Worth
05:08
|
|||
You say you want the best
But forget you’re not the only one
You say that’s how it has to end
But please, we’re not all that dumb
Oh my God
Won’t you step back and listen to yourself?
Oh my God
You’ve got to stop spilling all that poison in your head
So you’ve gone away
And stripped yourself of more time
Left us all to question everything
There’s no more changing your mind
Oh my God
How could you do this to yourself?
Oh my God
I guess that you swallowed all that poison in your head
You’re worth so much more than this
You’re worth so much more

Sweet Oblivion
05:14
|
|||
Floating in a whirlwind of do’s and don’ts
Guessing at the structure of wills and won’ts
You find your heart restrained by strings
Tied to heavy memories
Oh, sweet oblivion
Won’t you come along?
Spinning ‘round the room with cautiousness
If you land on that, you’ll want it this
‘Cause it doesn’t feel like dancing
When history grapples at your feet
Oh, sweet oblivion
Won’t you come along?
Distract from what’s happening
Protect from what’s happening
Forget what is happening
Oh, sweet oblivion
Won’t you come along?

Echo
04:22
|
|||
I climbed away
For days up this cliff
Jumped to the edge
And shouted
Echoing
Echo, sweet
You tease me
Echo, echo, echo
I leapt off
Suspended mid-air
Weightless and heavy
Still screaming
Echoing
Echo, sweet
You tease me
Echo, echo, echo
Echo, fade
Leave me alone
Please go on
No more
I landed
And saw no one there

Breathe Easy
04:51
|
|||
Breathe easy
Breathe easy
Nothing’s going anywhere
When you hold your breath like that
Breathe easy
Breathe easy
You’ll only choke it all away
If you clench your fists like that
Breathe easy
Breathe easy
Calm your body, calm your mind
There’s no use in anxiety
Breathe easy
Breathe easy
Let it pulsate through you
Making you come alive
Breathe, breathe

You're Here.
03:26
|
|||
Stuck inside a hollow nature
Scavenging for some content
Fixating on helpless things
Reassurance is nonexistent
You feel your body’s fading
Breathing faster, slowing down
Aching inside and out
And pressure rising for change
Can you hear me now
Loud and clear
Open up your solemn eyes
And realize
You’re here
This nature is far from shallow
The content is all around
Up for grabs and open to you
So take all you desire
Physical is always changing
But for better if put to use
Growing inside and out
The worth is up to you
Can you hear me now
Loud and clear
Open up your solemn eyes
And realize
You’re here

Adrift
03:58
|

(Instrumental)
This song came to be
On a winter afternoon
Watching the flakes
From outside my window
My fingers on metal
Spoke the only melody
That I could hear
From the white field
Of treacherous beauty
|

On the Wind
04:01
|
|||
Miles away
And oceans apart
Lie pieces
Of my tender heart
The current’s
Pulling me thin
I’m sailing
My love on the wind
Watching the moon
Through wax and through wane
Faith in the skies
That I’ll reach whole again
|

Align
05:06
|
|||
Tracing veins
To beating hearts
And lullabies
To broken starts
You
Knew
Shadowed eyes
Now drenched with light
A fallen star
Still burning bright
You
Knew
How to
Break, flake, shake
Ache, take, make, wake
All of me.
