Far away
02:18
|

Everything was a long time ago
Keep it clean, wash between your toes
Far away, are you safe
I don't mean everything I say
But I will say everything without delay
What'll it be in the new age
Where is god in the new age
Far away, are you safe

I just wanna be there
03:06
|
|||
In a dream you were well
Holding me above ground
How I sleep, deep and still
Dreaming of the old house
I can't see you, I just wanna be there for you
I can't see you, I just wanna be there
I'm a floater in the current
No place better could I be
It means nothing, no means nothing
Or else it means everything

Years go by

We're in your car
Sweet autumn air
You are in love
And I just cut my hair
Stop by the roadside
Arms up and hold tight
Years go by easy when
You are in my life
We're at a park
Too tired to open our eyes
You're safe in my arms
Asleep on the fourth of July
Seeing your hometown
Getting to know how
Years go by easy when you
Love with your heart out
We are inside
With nothing, no nothing to cower behind
And we are inside
I cross the pathways in my skull
I love, my heart is full

Animal:antidote
02:37
|
|||
Holding on this earth too close
I might be falling off, who knows
And you are just an animal
Not an antidote
Nose in the ground, I breathe
There's dirt in my mouth and leaves
I'm awash with empathy
An animal who feels for thee
Hold onto this earth, I wanna show you where it hurts
You are not an antidote, no you are something worse
And you are a cause to be
Composting all the rotten things
So with some uncertainty
I offer you my body
Holy unposturing
There's nothing but the ground and trees
All manner of dirty things
Come dig in the ground with me

It's never done
02:55
|
|||
Woke up with fear in my heart
My body's a warning
You are a cause for alarm
You still control me
I thought it was done -- it's never done
I thought it was done
Promised me you'd do no harm
No more intrusions
You are a cause for alarm
A common delusion

Your body's an omen
02:34
|
|||
I pace my room
I'm doing great
I check my phone
I waste away
I will crush these feelings for you
I'm just alone with nothing to do
In a dream I reach out
I reach out and touch you
Your body's an omen
Something good will come soon
I close my eyes
I see your face
I promise I
I will behave

Homespun blues
Watching my life with both hands on the rail
Eyes on horizon, a matter of scale
Waiting for somebody left on the trail
Homespun blues
Scraping my nails on the granite below
Dreaming you're mad at me, I should go home
Never in trouble to leave well alone
Homespun blues
Looking away from the terror below
I dropped a penny once, where did it go
Waiting for somebody else who might know
