Early in the morning when I wake up
I see you you you you
You you you you
You you you
Early in the morning when I wake up
I see you you you you
You you you you
You you you
And you're a little predictable
You're a little disorganized
You're a little too comfortable
You've got some notion that we care what you have to say
So you say it really loud
I mean really, really goddamn loud
And you make us uncomfortable
I promise
We do not care what you have to say
See, if I wasn't such a coward
I would tell you how I really feel right now
But instead, I just write it down
I crumple up the paper just to toss it at your blabbing mouth
Ignorant, accusing mouth
You use so well
You know it gives you power
You've always had the power
You'll always have the power
And that right there scares the living shit outta me
That right there scares the living shit outta me
Early in the morning when I wake up
I see you you you you
You you you you
You you you
Every single morning when I wake up
I see you you you you
You you you you
You
And you need some water to grow
You need some water you know

Sleep

I find it hard to explain these days
How you get me, it's so easy
In my brain, whispering things
Falling into bed alone
We hold each other tight
To have you by my side
Reminding me to wake on time
And there are days
I still hope I never see you shine
But somehow, I still know
You will always be mine
Truthfully our parents know what it is to really be alone
They used to sleep the night
Without having to put up this fight
Won't you rest your mind
Pour a glass of wine
Waste a little time
Just a little time
Pass away the days
Act in my plays
Swim through my gaze
Melt in my maze
In the end this time shall pass and I'll have kids who laugh at this
But darling, think of all the time we missed
Just staring at our phones
All alone

Run into the Rain
04:11

And so I
I'm able to admit
My main switch is self destructive
You know, baby, I can't help it
I'm sick, I'm hurt, and I am freaking out
Some may call it nervousness
But I call it my self doubt
What's worse, the ways I overthink before
You come knocking at my door
And I'm lying on the bathroom floor
Or the way you let me go tonight
But maybe now I'll know alright
That this love is a dying light
I run, I run into the rain
I run, I run into the rain
I run, I run into the rain
I run, I run into the rain
You know
I've forgotten what the feelings like
To stay with someone through the night
Like puzzle pieces fit just right
I make sense of all these reasons why
Why I could never fake a try
Too many shallow laughs and lies
But when autumn falls, I'll see it through
Look back on what we used to do
And hope I was wrong 'bout you
For now, these days go on in vain
But I'll tie my shoelace
Cuz up ahead it looks like rain
I run, I run into the rain
I run, I run into the rain
I run, I run into the rain
I run, I run into the rain

Pass me the time
See if I
Can do anything to slow the motion
Passing us by
We can try
Can't do anything but swim the ocean
I'm awful chilled
Wearing shorts and sneakers
Wasn't dressed for this
And though we're awful skilled
Know the drill
I ought to have been dressed for this
So pass me the wine
See if I
Can do anything about my anxious ass
I'm a mess
Can attest
I smoke so much more when you're not here
I fear, but it's cool
Wearing shades
In converse, need convincing that I'm cool
Cool enough, up to snuff
Pretending like I'm dressed for this
So seize me the day
Where you'll stay
Where the leaves will change
And you'll stay in my bed
Through the night, through the day
Through the night again
But until then
I'm stuck in our farewells
These never ending byes and farewells
See you later
Stuck in our farewells
These never ending ciaos and farewells
I'll see you soon, my love, in our farewells
Terrible walks home after our farewells
Trying not to cry every farewell
Goodnight goodbye love
Our farewells
Goodnight goodbye love

Let the water flow naturally
Here it runs down you and me
Here, the flies and the buzzards and fathers and mothers are not
Let the feelings be spiritual
Here the day performs miracles
Here, the lies and the stutters stuffed deep in cupboards can rot
I know you feel the wind when it lifts you
I know you know the end, it would gift you
But gifts are for people who need things from people, you'd rather be never that way
I know you feel the moon when it's real blue
Lonely Luna's crying who creeps through bedrooms
You stay up with people
They're in your mind, people
You'd rather not mention their names
Let your magic be pure and sweet
Here we always taste an apple treat
Here, the water can wash and a wash it sure will till I mop
Let vibrations be good and well
Here we show and we often tell
Here, the complex emotions confusing in motion can stop
I know you feel the wind when it lifts you
I know you know the end, it would gift you
But gifts are for people who need things from people, you'd rather be never that way
I know you feel the moon when it's real blue
Lonely Luna's crying who creeps through bedrooms
You stay up with people
They're in your mind, people
You'd rather not mention their names
Let your magic be pure and sweet
May you always taste an apple treat
Where the water, it wash and a wash it sure will till you mop
When vibrations are good and well
It's the easiest thing to tell
When the complex emotions confusing in motion can stop

Sleep Away Holly
04:20
|

Hail
It's coming down hard now
Better find cover in the blankets and the sheets
Pale
The dark ain't kind now
Why do these shadows always follow me
Remember last night when I was dreaming
You gave me the time of day
You surprised me with your interest
You seduced me such a way
And I awoke in such confusion
I coulda sworn I felt your touch
But I romanticize illusions far too much
Far too much
Fail
The word flies through our ears
It lays a trail
A fire burns our eyes
Oh, is it hell or limbo
We don't even know it
We don't even know it
Let me sleep away Holly till the darkness goes away
Jail
The prison in your mind
This lonely cell
Time to flee away to another land
Call it hell or limbo
You don't even know it
You don't wanna blow it
You just sleep away Holly till the darkness goes away
Sail
You're moving with the wind now
And I don't know when I will see your face
Bail
You're leaving it behind now
I'm begging it'll do us good this way
Remember those times when it was different
When the sunshine and the rain
Fell together through the trees
And all the colors knew our names
You know I'm trying to keep you with me
But you're water in my hands
Falling through my fingers
Disappearing in the sand
Fail
The word flies through our ears
It lays a trail
A fire burns our eyes
Oh, is it hell or limbo
We don't even know it
We don't even know it
Let me sleep away Holly till the darkness goes away
Jail
The prison in your mind
This lonely cell
Time to flee away to another land
Call it hell or limbo
You don't even know it
You pray you don't blow it
You just sleep away Holly till the darkness goes away
Till the darkness goes away
Till the dark is gone
I just close my eyes and pray
Till the darkness goes away

Holly Wonder

Holly knows the people in town
Happier times when she was around
Holly would light up the room, it's true
It's just something she could do
Holly knows the people in town
Lately, they haven't seen her around
I heard she's down
Fishing for golden crowns
Think we better send the clowns
I try to be a good friend and a lover
And I cry every time I think that I was
But I wasn't enough
And I lie, cause it keeps you at bay
Far far away from my heart
Oh baby
Holly's thinking bout some crazy things
Holly's having awfully sexy dreams
She's kissing a woman
Touching a woman
Loving on a woman
And she couldn't be happier, no no
Oh baby!
Oh yeah you, what you put me through!!
Holly has the magic in hand
Sneaking out late any time she can
She’s dancing with the fairies of land and sea in skies of berry green
But dreamings just for sleeping
There ain't no use in keeping hold of something if something's nothing
Well she's sick of nothing but asking for better days
I try to be a good friend and a lover
And I cry every time I think that I was
But I wasn't enough
And I'll die, but I damn sure won't let a man make a fool outta me
Oh baby
Holly dusts off her sword and shield
Travels by horse through crimson fields
Destined to find where monsters lay
She rides with the night
She couldn't be happier
Up a mountain, into a cave
Where the monster sleeps
And she softly creeps
And she sticks that sword right between his eyes
Screaming "glory be!! I'm me, I'm free, and I'm bad!"
Oh baby, I'm bad!
Dontcha know I'm bad, baby!!
And I won't ever let a man make a fool outta me again, no no no!
Holly's thinking bout some crazy things
Holly's having awfully sexy dreams
She's kissing a woman
Touching a woman
Loving on a woman
And she couldn't be happier, no no

Clementine
03:34
|

She got a cloudy look about her, so she went on home
It's like we had her for a second and then she was gone
Clementine, I'll never tell you how many stars she's stolen from these eyes
She got a rainy day moving and for five weeks long
It's like the whole world was draining down a lavender song
Clementine, I'll never tell you how very hard she's holding lovely lies
She goes upside down for love
But the daylight calls her bluff
The girl is all tangled and tied up
And it's messing her up
She gets to singing sometimes in her room at dusk
It's romantic, the ways she ignores all the dust
Clementine, how can she make it eight more months without a phone call home
She gets to breathing real easy as she paints in the sand
Illuminated by Luna lighting over the land
Clementine, help me fake it, take my pants and dance with me lone, all lone
She goes upside down for love
But the daylight calls her bluff
The girl is all tangled and tied up
And the moonlights had enough
She goes right side up for love
Been real accustomed to this kinda stuff
The girl is all tangled and tied up
And it's messing me up
How dumb must I look
After all these years, after all these years
Clementine, I grow fonder of you still
How much gold they took
Wasted on those ears, wasted on those ears
Clementine, paint me naked if you will
How dumb must I look
Clementine, I'm free falling through my bed
How much gold they took
Clementine, keep these flowers in my head

Mountain Girls
05:57

I waited four years for someone
Who never showed up at all
I wasted away my time
And now I'm washed away
Glowing in the snow
Mountain boys and girls
And I won't talk to anyone of them
They all hurt the same
Oh, joyous days
I'm counting all the ways
I feel like I'm something else
The untouched book
Forgotten shelf
I want to be free
I want to feel what it's like to be touched and sought after
But I'm a natural disaster
And now I'm washed away
I've got a secret, it's mine
And it's been messing me up inside
I'm gonna keep it
I'm shy when it comes to laying it on the line
Maybe that's why I'm so fine wasting away all this precious time
We all have our secrets and Clementines
We all have those things that we choose to hide
Way deep in our minds
There's darkness to find
Way deep in our minds
I used to think I loved to be all by myself
But I just want that option
I don't function all that well here with myself
I've got a secret, it's mine
And it's been messing me up inside
I'm gonna keep it
I'm shy when it comes to laying it on the line
Maybe that's why I'm so fine wasting away all this precious time
We all have our secrets and Clementines
We all have those things that we choose to hide
You're there inside
What is it like
Being so beautiful
Passing the time
Loving the wine
Laughing for hours
Remaining beautiful
What if I was
There in the crowd
Would I stand out
Would I be beautiful
I just need you to say
You can't look away
I love the power
We all love the power
We all love the power
And if you say you don't love it, you're a liar
There's darkness in all of us
Burning and screaming for power!!
Memories holding onto my waist
Play with me, dancing in a sweet taste
Melody, harmony, spring days
Stay with me, tell me that we're ready
For a finer stage, flowers at our feet
Fine wine, we'll age, spinning down a rain soaked street in May
Funny how we're ruined by games we play
And who am I to say I'm any better than you
We're a couple saps, can't kick the blues
Just a couple saps, can't kick the blues
Just a couple saps, can't kick the blues
How dare I even say I’m any better than you!!
We're a couple saps, can't kick the blues
Just a couple saps, can't kick the blues
Just a couple saps, so blue

International Sad Girl

I don't know what I'm looking for
But I know that I'll be bored
When I get there
I don't care
It’s just the state of affairs
International sad girl
And I've been to England, Spain and to France
But I always knew in advance
There wasn't a home for me
As far as the eye could see
International sad girl
And as I think back to the past
I knew that it never would last
With far too much pretending
In watercolors blending
Watch as I lean over this bridge
If I become unhinged
I think I could do it
There's really nothing to it
International sad girl
And I know I just stole this
But I'm hopelessly hopeless
I hope so
For you
And I just don't know what to do
International sad girl

Between Time
03:21

Dear, I look to the sky
And it's just so lovely today
In the simplest way
Here, clouds are rolling by
Telling tales in shifting shapes
Diamonds dance above
Waters as they flood
Toes and ankles warm
In the sands near shore
Wind, it whispers soft
Dreams of days now long time gone
And what are they all trying to say
These delicate wonders here
I like to think that I'm okay
And I'm not all that weird
There ain't no wrong time to say it
There ain't no wrong time to feel
There's only this time
And it's precious and it's real
Dear, I can feel the sun
And it's warming me all around
Inside and out
Here, I swear I'm having fun
Don't you pay that no mind now
And the time apart
Weighs heavy on my heart
Leaves me on the ground
Bruised and broken down
But the sky reminds
These are temporary lives
And what are they all trying to say
These delicate wonders here
I like to think that I'm okay
And I'm not all that weird
There ain't no right time to say it
There ain't no right time to feel
There's only this time
And it's lonely and it's real
It's just so hard to do
I grow so close to you
And that's just how it seems to go for us
You know it's true
One hour, you're here
Two hours, you're gone again
Oh dear, it never ends
This ride we find ourselves upon, old friend
But in the meantime
In this between time
