For You (2013)

I will remember you
As an artist who
Saw through all things
Too soon
Underwhelmed or overwhelmed
We found our way to other realms
Rose high, fell hard
Into something else
And you only love the things
That are long gone
Look up to the sky (It's for you)
The light within the light outside (It's for you)
All this everything is nothing (It's for you)
A fire that won't burn out
It's for you
We are lonely with constant changing lines
I hope you find a love that never dies
Sometimes I think of you
I guess that's nothing new
See through the false to recognize what's true
Memories like these
Feel like good dreams

You'll move
And you'll grow
And you'll do what you do
And we'll prove
What we know
Absolutely nothing
A colorless hue
Pretending to see something to be
Escape artists, inescapably
Break through the screens
And let it all be
Let love and light
Forever bring you the key
Weightlessly float above the room
See yourself from a bird's eye view
One long line of related clues
Leading back to the bright truth
The truth that is you

Sometimes I can't move
Sometimes it's hard to breathe
Most times I know I've gotta be all alone
Most times I know this is how we grow
Sometimes I can't move

Some Prayer (2016)

Lord, send me a sign
Send me a sign, Lord, send a sign
Lord, lift me up
Lift me up, Lord, lift me up
Lord, shine a light
Shine a light right down on me

Don't go comparing yourself
To other people's lives
'Cuz they don't know a fucking thing
No they don't know a fucking thing about honesty
We've got our own lives still to live the way we want
So pack up the moon
And dismantle the sun
Let all the stars burn out
And pour away the ocean
Lay down your sleepy head, my love
Down in my tired arms
Until the break of day
Let these living creatures lie
Mortal and guilty
Beautiful entirely to me

We are the great imitators
Lonely creatures wearing layers
Of our anxiety creators
These are moments we should savor
The past becomes a story
That we tell ourselves 'til we're fucking dead
We're sick as hell but we could heal
Who am I to say what's real?
Things we haven't said,
Oh yeah

Woke up in shame and guilt again
In bed paralysis it's 2 PM
You would think I've learned by now
Knowledge of a fact won't do somehow
Ohio skies remain the same shade of grey
This is anytime of everyday
So if you're staying in or shivering
I hope the cold it don't sneak into your bones
But I'm afraid that it's too late for me
I've overslept and left for dreaming
I'd like to go back to sleep
Woke up insane and sick again
Any day now this will surely end, badly
Depressing thoughts, self-doubt begins
To spread through me like a disease
Distance me from reality
This growing anxiety
Ohio skies remain the same shade of grey
Sunshine always fades away

Tetanus Needles (2016)

If you think you're free to think
The addict's not you
Tricking got through
Like Thing 1, like Thing 2
In the truffle trees
The Lorax croons softly
The stars ain't real
It's just a black piece of paper with holes poked through
Substance burnt out
Rusted hurts now
Tetanus needles in brain
Please say if you can, please stay if you can
Tell them to show me
Tell them to show me
Tell them to show me free

It's so like him,
Arms crossed underneath your lullabies
You're so unlike him,
You see stars in the daytime
It's so like me,
Trying to be everything to everyone
Hear what you want to hear,
You can't keep what is done
If it's the pain that stays don't wait
He's already too far away
Even those who are great too fade
Don't take it too hard, babe
With or without you are strong
We feel it in your songs
You stayed up all night
Turning stones by the riverside
Now it's time
And you still can't decide
By day he wears his emptiness like a crown
King dark sarcasm up on his throne looking down
His thieves stole your dreams like an alarm
You sleep right through, let down your guard
Disarm the ones that cause you harm
It's just the paths of pasts that broke your heart
Sure you can drive real far away from here
But distance don't make those things disappear
They'll follow you there
Don't act like you're not scared
'Cuz I am too
I'd like to stay here with you
