I know spring will come around

HIGH
02:38
|
|||
the mountain is steep and the valley low
but they don't stand a chance
cuz they don't know how to go
and I do
I go in, I go round, I go deep
and the clock can't stop me cuz I don't need no sleep
I GET HIGH
SO HIGH
don't always make sense
but it always feels right
and even when it's all wrong it's outta site
it's the way the world spins
and the world spins fine
It makes me feel like I'm gonna get out of my mind
I GET HIGH
HIGH
HIGH
SO HIGH
can't see where I'm going
don't know where I've been
only thing I'm sure of
if I stay this pumped there's no other outcome
I'm gonna win, because
ain't no obstacle can get in my way
when the gods allow me this field day
i can drive thru solid mass
stuff like that
don't ever need to slow down
none of that crap
I GET HIGH
SO HIGH
SO HIGH
SO HIGH

He Won't

Who you gonna call when it all runs out
and there's nothing left
and there's little doubt that it's going down?
And where you gonna go when you reach that wall
and it's way too high and you don't know how to climb?
How you gonna cope with so much pain
when all your little pills make you feel enslaved?
I know, you think Jesus, Jesus will save you
You think Jesus, Jesus will save you
How you gonna stop all of those waves
when the reef you trust has been washed away?
Where you gonna hide?
And how you gonna keep from floating to sea
when everyone around you has cut you free?
What you gonna do?
When there's nothing, nothing left to say
when there's nothing, nothing left to say
I know, you think that Jesus, Jesus will save you
You think Jesus, Jesus will save you
I know, you think that Jesus, Jesus will save you
You think Jesus, Jesus will save you (he won't)

Nobody's Lament
02:23
|
|||
Tomorrow becomes today far too quickly
if you ask me
But nobody does
The dreams we dreamed up yesterday
become the dreams we won't recall
far to often
if you ask me
But nobody does
Nobody ever does
The plates that used to rattle
they don't rattle anymore
too fucking sad now
if you ask me
But nobody does
At least no one i can hear

the Painful
03:30
|
|||
I see it
and I want it
but I know I can't everything I want
and it hurts
yes it hurts
I know that there's a way
and I have heard that anyone can find it
but I can't see where I'm going
no I can't see where I'm going
all I can see is where I've been
and it gets me scared
I don't mean to lay it all out
but sometimes it's the only way
and the painful can take away the pain
oh the painful can take away the pain
yes the painful can take away the pain
and i believe
i believe that it will
oh the painful will take away the pain

Shelter in Place
01:14
|
|||
Walking around with nothing on
this must be a dream
I ain't never dreamed like this before
Locked in alone
Just the two of us
and the whole damned world leaves us alone
Social Distance
All day to share whatever floats on by
whatever's in our mind
All day to find what we can find
As long as I can
As long as I can
Shelter in place with you
|

If I Could
01:21
|

tell me about all the plans you had
all of the places you always meant to go
And I will take you there
and all will fall in place
I will take you home

Breathe Deep

Breathe in deep
Breathe in the wonder
Breathe in deeper
Rejoice as the seasons renew you

Don't Say Goodbye
04:05
|
|||
Sometimes things just fall apart
I know, not what you want to hear
the pain you feel
this color blue
it's all been felt before you felt it
even though it feels brand new
And as you look at her and think
this can't go on, I'm gonna sink
there's solid all around
but you can't find the ground
cuz you don't know which end is up
don't say goodbye
And as the days slip into weeks
and the phone it never rings
you can comfort yourself that it's all been said and done before
but the truth is it stinks
don't say goodbye

So Far

how did we get so far?
such a long way to go

In the Way
00:52
|
|||
When the cloud passes over
and I feel the coming rain
I know, you said that I could call you
and I would, but I don't know what I'd say
cuz it all feels so very yesterday
and yesterday gets so in the way of today

Supposed to Be
02:46
|
|||
I know how it's supposed to be
I've read books
I've seen magazines
I knew there'd be days like these
but our forest has far too many trees
I suppose that if you cared at all
I wouldn't need all this alcohol
Help me back to where I can stand
I need to feel solid
Wake me up when it's over
Wake me over when you're done
Wake me up when the ground is firmer
Wake me up
Wake me up

Reboot
00:46
|
|||
I think maybe I'll sit this one out
and let the music go on without me
I think maybe it's time for a rest
and I'll start fresh in the morning

Did you get what you you deserve?
Round and round and round we go...
Did you get what you wanted??

music down to its essentials, keeping songs short and concise while creating emotions using a simple palette (actually, this description is a bit longer than some of the pieces)...
