racing to meet at the make-up
in time to catch up
my heart beating vi-o-lent-ly
given a promise that limits
like the time between cities
what is conceived
I exhale when you breathe
and I’m restless when you move
as wings shouldered by twins mean
separate playthings
I am awake, awake
so are we separate?
so are we separate?
hey, are we separate?
if I exhale when you breathe
and I’m restless when you move
you’re saying what I hear
and I’m trying
I still exhale when you breathe
and I’m restless when you move
you’re saying what I hear
and I’m trying

Different Standards
04:01

thank you, my counterweight
I was calling you to elevate above
a stricter discipline than I felt was right
but bring me down, tell me all
about the other way
the difference in standards
by which we operate
reset: back to zero
call it even
start it from the same line
at the same time
abandoning all your architecture
you satiate the days with stories you would rather
put your belief in
reset: back to zero
call it even
start it from the same line
at the same time
reset: back to zero
(all the arrows to the line)
call it even
(I feel you calling on me,
I am always several steps behind)
start it from the same line
(but we're moving at the time)
at the same time
as I rethink the foundation
the noise ahead
is turning you around again
you’re turning this around again
and I believed it
reset: back to zero
call it even
start it from the same line
at the same time

and now my brother laughs
US-1 North all the way
I could not move fast enough
you come up some
when I am home
and everybody stops
but I keep moving
in my way
I am moving on, and on
(alright!)
can I thank you for what you do?
for your kindness?
your violence?
can I thank you for what you do?
for your kindness?
your violence?

Trash of Color
04:49

area lights take my face off
I’m not in the pictures of me
I need a prayer for deep red
what’s behind this?
I'm drowning in my vanity
aria love, crush my chest in
as the image almost comes to me
there’s a Coral Castle on some highway
while Berlioz is out to sea
this is not the way
(I'll show you, I'll show you)
it is real somewhere
(I'll show you, I'll show you)
I believe in the goal behind the game
enough to be in it today
the trash of color
keeps me wanting
what could take my whole lifetime to achieve:
aria love
aria love
aria love
aria love
this is not the way
(I'll show you, I'll show you)
no, it is real somewhere
(I'll show you, I'll show you)
you know that I believe in the goal behind the game
enough to be in it today
it is enough to be in it today
it is enough to be in it today

look at me with serial surprise
and Saturday night eyes
it was freezing anyway
enter me, the lines are razor-thin
and underneath my skin
you tattoo me every day
this is my lot, my rake
my pass at what passes as fate
I’m holding on
holding on to faith I place
in every angle of your face
sensation
allow me to flash a neon sign
tell ‘em all you’re mine
they’re cheering on the sides
sit with me in a booth against the wall
we’ll trash ‘em as they fall
hey, we’re beautiful, they lied
this is your lot, your rake
your pass at what passes as fate
you’re holding on
holding on to faith you place
in future January dates
sensation
sensation
I’d give it all for
relation
to what you seem to me
is that enough?
this is our lot, our rake
our pass at what passes as fate
we’re holding on
holding on to faith we place
in everything we’ll be someday

Linda thanks us
she is fine, she is fine
everyone’s supportive
some days can just fall apart
just like that
there isn’t even warning
I am thankful
I am fine, I am fine
but you keep asking questions
people can just break apart
just like this
there isn’t always reason
and the front of my time here
knows my name and it calls me back
love means “in the end”
time outlives most sentiment
I was moving very young, very young
knowing of the passage
you have to look just long enough to get the frame
forever in your reference
‘cause it can pass you holding still, yes it can
I found out too early
'cause in the morning, time stopped dead and you were gone
forever in my reference
and the front of my time here
knows my name and it calls me back
love means “in the end”
time outlives most sentiment
I dreamed I knew you
I dreamed that you were there too
I dreamed I knew you
I dreamed that you were there
at the front of my time here
knows my name and it calls me back
love means “in the end”
time outlives most sentiment

Always and Never
03:30

if not another day was spent in self-defense
in writing the scripture
if not another night was lost to fear
fears about living
if I could bring the outside inside
if I could pull the stars down just for you
if I could make my words the right kind
if I could make you understand
that how we live
what we want
the way we give
and who we are
make it so
the strength of us should be enough
always and never are just the same
leaving my lips as a promise to you
from this day on, when you say my name
I will be there, I'll be there
always and never are just the same
leaving my lips as a promise to you
from this day on, when you say my name
I will be there
if I could always make you smile, make you laugh
keep your heart guessing
if I could never let you down, but pick you up
keep lifting you higher
if I could make the sun shine brighter
enough to warm the side of your sweet face
if I could make your soul feel lighter
if I could keep you always young
if you could never feel alone, or without love
without the answers
if every melody on earth would play for you—just for you
if “ever after” were a real time
and “never-never’ were a place that you could go
if every rainbow led to somewhere
if every dream would turn to gold
then how we live
what we want
the way we give
and who we are
make it so
the strength of us should be enough
always and never are just the same
leaving my lips as a promise to you
from this day on, when you say my name
I will be there, I will be there
always and never are just the same
leaving my lips as a promise to you
from this day on, when you say my name
I will be there

The Way 2 Win
03:24
|
|||
|
the way to win according to the losing team
and I’m running ragged, running down
soft-spoken nonsense filters into what I mean
and talk-talk, it follows me around
when you lose it, find it, get it back and hold on tight
when you lose it, find it, get it back
in all my life, nothing seemed stranger to me
than all the fight we can keep up
and still be standing upright
and all the time spent on the extremities
is how we define
the things that we believe
if I concentrate on the best of you and me
can I keep the numbers coming up?
those few degrees between what flies and falls
ensure that I work hard enough
if you get it, grab it, and make sure that you stay on top
if you get it, grab it, stay on top
if you get it, grab it, and make sure that you stay on top
if you get it, grab it, stay on top
in all my life, nothing seemed stranger to me
than all the fight we can keep up
and still be standing upright
in all my life, nothing seemed stranger to me
than all the rights we can give up
and still be standing, aching to win
the way to win
the way to win
the way to win
the way to win
the way to win
the way
in all my life

timeframes, knickknacks, horses all boxed
turquoise shitbox, you are the vox
I could be that sister you lost
some time, somewhere the lines were crossed
what I really need from you
cannot be divided to
separate the best for you
while I suffer with the rest
tuners, guitars I’ll never play
come on, hotshot, show me the way
I know you might do as you’re told
you know you might not be so bold
archer, shooter, shoot me a sign
send up signals bright as the sky
I keep your words locked in my mind
I have your voice; which one is mine?
what I really need from you
cannot be divided to
separate the best for you
while I suffer with the rest
what I really want from you
I always learn a lesson through
you will do what you will do
while I struggle with the rest

Gait and Carriage
05:38

I know that it’s not right to want for something so outside
I know that can try to get just one thing right inside
when all you have that makes you feel alive
can show you how it feels to die
I know that I will fight to keep my own voice in my sight
steering from collision
big crash and there’s your answer
(little girl)
panoramic vision
big flash and you don’t look so tall anymore
the color of the sky reminds me of the way you cried
I remember the one that you keep locked up deep inside
whatever makes you feel alright
if you need the distance just to hide
but the bluing of the sky reminds me of your saddest eyes
as the season steals you
I swear that I don’t need you
(anymore)
I’ll let my memory feel you
make my body let you go—now go
remember: gait and carriage
use your language well
we make changes based on what we sell
review your options: you can go back home
or stay on with the rest, unfamed, unknown
either way, just be ready when it comes to you
this house you sleep in, the wooden frame you trust
the lungs you breathe in, so carefree without cost
do you always wake up well?
you never lie down lost?
this faith you keep with, do you ever . . .
do you ever doubt out loud?
and if I double-dare you, will you let this scare you?
and if I stare straight at you, can you look at me too?
and if I send this to you, does it ever reach you?
and do the words “I love you” put me far behind or with you?
gait and carriage
use your language well
they make changes based on what they sell
review your options: you can go back home
or stay on with the rest, unfamed, unknown
either way, just be ready when it comes to you
