Hz Donut 01:32
2.
And hear delight an impatient land A lark singing of dawn and bright Upon the neighborhood the grand And driving rays burn out the night And I go under and my eyelids Still laden with lonely night And fade into a bleary haze Traffic lights marking the time I am almost on my way I'm still trapped inside the maze All my days there is mystery in my mind There's a line that doesn't rhyme And you talk and I'm not listening Bury my head in the sand I've been pulled from this dream before And I'm not doing that again And I go under and my eyelids Still laden with lonely night And fade into a bleary haze Traffic lights marking the time
3.
I have set my bar too low Left myself no room to grow I don't want to wake for the day I'd like to live in this cliché Fuzzy glimpses of bouquets I don't want to wake for the day All of the stars are fading away I don't want to wake for the day I can't help smiling in this place I'm eating a whole buffet I don't want to wake for the day Beyond my memory, there's not much to see I just run out my mind I've been a-lounging for the last three weeks In the sunshine
4.
And your heart was tightly knit before I went and unraveled it And I'd rather brood at sea so I don't break my integrity
5.
We're in the sea, engulfed in sunshine, wanting more You say to me that anything worth fighting for Is out of my hands when I set the goal I've never heard anything less useful I like to spend my nights arguing with you in my dreams I can't explain why all your love flies out the door You say to me that anything worth fighting for Is thinking about storming out the door I can't take this scene anymore I like to spend my nights arguing with you in my dreams You said it already—you said goodnight When I'm feeling melancholy, I slip into my old dream I watch dry out over days a well that was filled to the brim Not quite what I had in mind, but I am beaming anyway In my imagined memory, it ripples and breathes as a lake If I ever hurt you, please know the feeling stays with me Till I don't remember a time without it breaks everything I never found the right words to sum up my affection—in truth, It might have taken armies to keep me away from you
6.
Done For Me 02:03
I redeemed myself quickly I don't see what it did for me So many cities in between I don't see what they've done for me
7.
We have all day to breathe our silent song Your hands roll waves upon waves across the walls I plan to stay just long enough to fall I run away at any sign of flames at all Now that you are rested up, it's better that you know All your time's invested in someone who just goes We're together and aching for the night All your sunshine is burning you from your insides You are tiring of my repeated lines I am turning into white lies and wide eyes Sun is sinking, going under Some last light beams torn asunder Cap another silent summer Breathless thinking, endless wonder When you stay in the shallower water It's easy to float—I ought to know
8.
Ways 03:57
(When we run out of ways to distract you What trouble will you fall into?) My world cracked and left me out blinking Goodbye to the wide open I had wasted all my time thinking I won't see the sun again Now we laugh as all our walls sink and Grab at answers in the night I had wasted all my time thinking I never quite got it right All the ways you make me clever Your thoughts are in mine forever
9.
Where were we standing? I don't remember Everything's different but we're still together Moments before I thought myself better Like I could foresee shifts in the weather I know I'd better get it together If I don't save it I'll never remember When I am dreaming I change the weather Sunshine in my eyes always feels better
10.
You stop rivers and streams Please get your cold front away from me
11.
(I can see forever) I didn't know you yesterday You might put all my fears at bay And create more along the way We're it seems as if from the start Growing together but apart Melding into a single heart Beating excitedly at night Working through confidence and fright Patiently waiting for sunlight Diving headlong into my dreams Ripping my life right at the seams Blowing out my reality Finally I'm waking Years have ticked away Pushing, pulling, breaking We ride every wave Your arms guide me, sunshine Pouring in my eyes I squeal like a child Who only wonders why I am the one you came to see? Are you sure you remember me? Am I sure this is happening? I'm getting lost inside my head Filling it up with hope and dread Parsing through everything you've said Diving headlong into my dreams Ripping my life right at the seams Blowing out my reality All of the stars have gone away Leading into another day All of the stars have gone away I wrestled with this dream for years until I Finally stopped closing my eyes I've waited for you a long time
