New Moon Blues
02:53

|
i don’t know how
we made it through
unsinkable plans
i’ll follow you, i’ll follow you
where do we go
oh when we die
do we become
all of the black in the night sky?
bodies of light
bellows of sound
ash in the wind
dust on the ground
no city lights
deeper than blue
follow the night
even the moon has darkened too
maybe we know
maybe we don’t
maybe we grow
maybe we won’t
maybe we know
maybe we don’t
maybe we grow
maybe
autonomous hands
fingers that trace
the time in the sand
the lines on my face
bodies of light
bellows of sound
ash in the wind
dust on the ground
i don’t know how (changes are everywhere)
we made it through (take in the sun)
when darkness abounds (walk into what you fear)
i’ll follow you (into the new?)
maybe we know
maybe we don’t
maybe we grow
maybe we won’t
maybe we know
maybe we don’t
maybe we grow
maybe we won’t

Float Away
03:29
|
|||
|
started out at the riverbed where we lay
while the smoke curled overhead, there we lay
filled our lungs with all the stories we’d been told to get us through the day
bodies warm and laid out in the sand
soaking up all the light we can
lay there til the sun begins to sink under the weight of all of us
and as the fire burned we saw reflections of the flames in each of us
my father used to come here as a boy
he sought the safety of the river, the solace of the woods
my mother used to bring me as a child, and she would cradle me so tightly... as if i’d float away, as if i’d float away
as if i’d float away as if i’d float away

Signs
03:16
|
|||
|
Oh we’re sitting here waiting for signs
break the darkness, let in the light
a little purpose, something to know
a new direction, somewhere to go
cos every time we feel like we’ve got it all worked out, right
something comes along and turns it all up on its inside
never-ending work to be done
push harder to become one
a little further, that’s where we’ll go
gotta risk it, how will we grow
cos every time we feel like we’ve got it all worked out, right
something comes along and turns it all up on its inside
every time
every time
i’m looking for signs
we gotta break the cycle
we gotta break the wall
we gotta break the silence
we gotta watch it fall
cos everytime we feel like we’ve got it all worked out, right
something comes along and turns it all up on its inside
every time
every time
i’m looking for signs

Holding Steady
03:13
|
|||
|
if one more step can get us back up on our toes
why don't we run until there's no where else to go
oh let's push ahead, push ourselves instead
oh you're young, you can't look back until you grow
i've been crawling through a dry spell
learning how to get well
learning how to see
now i'm kicking in the glass walls
learning how to stand tall
learning how to speak
i'll hold my own now
lately i've been holding steady, i've been holding steady
if i could count up all the hours that i've spent
lost in worry, apprehension or regret
it would become so clear that we've learned to fear
the line of what was said and what was really meant
i've been crawling through a dry spell
learning how to get well
learning how to see
now i'm kicking in the glass walls
learning how to stand tall
learning how to speak
i'll hold my own now
lately i've been holding steady, i've been holding steady
and all the time we spend to forgive our choices

Wild Things
03:12
|
|||
|
one day it dawned on me this is all we’ll ever be behind our eyes
a heart beat
all our cells trying to breathe
we are wild things you and me
we are wild things roaming free
no destination
no train of thought
muscle memory moving us along our bodies, bone and skin
no control this moment that we’re in
through the times that we keep struggling and the days we’ve just let go
all the hours our hearts keep pumping through the things that we don’t know
we are wild things you and me
we are wild things roaming free
we’re exactly
where we should be we are wild things you and me
chorus x 2
we are wild things
and we’re roaming free we are wild things
you and me

Reset
04:17
|
|||
|
Impossible things weighing on me Where is my place, where could I be?
I left the winnings and took up the chase Searching for answers in a hollow space
How are we living when seconds are shared? You call us connected when nobody cares The voices of many, the words of a few Searching for meaning and a little truth
If we all strip it back
And find out what we’re missing We can all reconnect
Remember how it used to be
Muscles and sweat Our bones are set Feel it connect Heavy chest
Let’s press reset
Whenever I falter, stumbling, weak
Caught on the words that I’m too scared to speak I swallow my doubt
Push it from my mouth
If we all strip it back
And find out what we’re missing We can all reconnect
Remember how it used to be
Muscles and sweat Our bones are set Feel it connect Heavy chest
Let’s press reset
