Trying, Too

Tired, blankin
On the words I say to you
It’s time to relax
Unwind into sheets of white
Figure out the mess we made tonight
Talking only
Gets you as far as talkin’ can
When you decide to
Hold up both your hands against
The only place where sound has a chance
I won’t waste the day for you
You won’t waste the day for me too
If you don’t wanna try
And I don’t wanna lie
Then i’m not tryin too
Thinking
All the times we
had to say i'm sorry
Did wereally mean it
Or did we wanna get on
Move along until we find a meaning
Tryin to be
one who keeps you in their eye
All the, all the damn time
Till it gets too bright
Keepin watch until i lose my sight

Daily

Tell me oh tell me a story
Of all the awful things
And all of the glories
I haven't heard a thing
Until you've told me
Discovering
All there's to knowing
Show me oh show me the part I
know I’ve never seen
Anything before thee
Your every word’s a string (hymn)
Wrapping me wholly
I’m wandering
Back to you daily
La la la la la
Bring me oh bring me the time I
Called her just to.. “Hey,
What are you saying?
I think i’m gonna leave.”
“Well I guess i’m staying”
Remembering..

Well it’s too bad
That he shrunk her down
To a feeling.
Swallowed up in a verse
Force fed
Spit out a meaning
I’m not tired when we sleep,
But i’ll rustle the sheets,
Make you think
That you are just enough
Cause it’s too hard
Keeping up with the ways
That we’re going
Like a chunk of earth
Buried
Underneath the ceiling
It’s gonna fall just when we think
We’ve conquered everything
But maybe
We are just enough
Watch in bed as it comes crashin through
Worse than we could’ve dreamed it
Splits the hands that once held two
Hurts more now when you see it
Happening, finally
Well it’s too sad
To think that far back
On the story
Of the boy and the girl
Wrapped up in vines of ivy
That’s doesn’t grow so tall
Or grow at all
Come to think of it
Well i’ve been thinking of ways
To pass the time
If only
You hadn’t had this effect
To build and to wreck
All of me
If the ceiling had held
We’d still be propping the shelves
Waiting for the fall
No matter what we ended up
Turning away from the reason
Sweet denial and a bitter smile
Bury away all that we’ve been
If i had one thing to say
I wouldn’t do it anyway
Passing the time of forgiving
Try to make each and every night
One that resembles living
Finally, happening

Hazy
02:12

Listen,
Lets talk about this
Someday,
For now let me kiss you
A secret come monday
Never know the places that we’ve been
But don’t you think my eyes won’t shutter when you smile
Drivin
To the next spot
Lately,
The way you watch the world
Through the window leaves me hazy
Never know the way you make me see
Don’t you think that I won’t notice when you’re shy
Starting,
To feel it
Baby,
Each time you leave me breathless
Beggin for you plainly
Never want this comin’ to an end
Don’t you think that I will ever leave your side

Hardly
03:19
|

Floating with you on the edge
Takes all of me to understand
all the fullness of you
Oh i think you understand
Takes all of you to recommend
What I could do for you
What I would do for you
But I can hardly move
Come take the time away from me
I don’t deserve to have it free
Stripped from you to the
End of times will tell me that
never any one thing I said
But what i did to you
What i should do for you
But I can hardly move

In Between
02:36
|

Come, sit down
Gathers the crowd
“I loved you most but I must be goin”
Maybe
They won’t care much at all
Forget you the moment it falls away
Even the ones that said “I love you so”
How do we placate the sea
Rushing on in, taking us with
All just a thought
Till it dries you up
To swim or to sink
Be born again
Or fall somewhere
In between,
Forgetting the moment it seems
Even the ones you hold like a dream
It’s getting quite hard to breathe

Marionettes
02:20

Lower me onto the table, forgetting why
Strings are hanging over my head.
Pull my lips so I am able, to reply
With words that I’ve never said.
Thread unwinds, keep the end in the palm of your hand.
Squeezing tight, you pretend you’re a girl with a plan, he will give in.
He looks up from the table, remembers why
Her voice surrounds the air.
Pulling wires to disable, the crime
Of how we talk when we are scared.
Pull you up, let the sound go above the skin.
I won’t run away if I have time to begin, let’s jump in.
Take off the wires and find ourselves again.

Regret
03:52
|

Dress me in clothes that you buy
Wrap me in shiny things,
Laugh till we cry
If you want it all
I’ll give you it all
Color me outside the lines
Or fill me in with a grin
Do what you like
If you need it all
I’ll give you it all
Those things I
should’ve said before you left
Promise me
You won’t share our old bed
Sarah I
Just need you to know my regrets
Knowing just what you need to hear
Knowing you but also knowing fear
Passing on the moment of
Passing by surpassing love
Wanting you to know what’s yours
Wanting you to want much more
Feeling like we could carry on
Feeling that the feelings gone
