it's dark at four o'clock
the city's sleeping in a fever dream
my body's so tired, i'm getting used to being lonely
whenever i look up there's always clouds above
i lose focus
i need some light, a crack, a splinter to get me through the winter
i feel hopeless
whenever life gets hard i just get soft
a thousand steps every morning
i cross the street to change my view
the birds sing me a story
they say it's always 20/20 in the rearview
whenever i look up there's always clouds above
i lose focus
i need some light, a glint a glimmer to get me through the winter
i'm not hopeless
but whenever life gets hard i just get soft
so soft, so soft.

i want to take you swimming sometime
lay out our bodies on the rocks in the sun
i want to know what it was like growing up and where you find joy in a world so fucked up
and maybe i haven't been sleeping so well
im getting lost in my day dream
spending my time looking so deep inside, hoping that i can find something
i want to go for a walk in the woods and spend a few hours on the trails
i want to see colours changing above... do the trees ever worry that they're not enough?
these days i know that i'm swirling, living inside my own head
but you've got a smile that can crack me wide open
leaving me looking for something...something
looking for something.

vultures

these days you seem a little quiet
these days you're turning down the news
you say, 'it's so hard to find the joy now'
but these days aren't about you...
and you'd be a fool if you were praying for rain when you had a thousand buckets of water in your name, yet your neighbours house was burning (going up in flames) and you were on the porch, praying while the smoke was circling like a vulture
keep on drinking your cool, cool water. you're not looking for change. cos you know the wind will keep blowing away, keeping your house safe from the flames. but the voices, they will keep rising! pay attention, open the door. cos the voices they will keep rising and you cannot ignore them anymore.
you'd be a fool if you were praying for rain when you had a thousand buckets of water in your name, and your neighbours house was burning - going up in flames, yet you're out on the porch praying while the smoke is circling like a vulture.

isolation

when I sit here all day, finding myself barely awake
getting tired of my thoughts
feel it burning up inside - I wonder where I could go to get away from it all these days
but I swore that I would not let it phase me
and I said that I would not let it erase me...
I'm just lonely these
I bet you're lonely too
Let's put our lonely minds together, ride out the lonely weather
we will get through, like we always do.

well it might be the end of your body
but only the start of your journey
electricity
you're in all of the clouds above me
and all of the wind that surrounds me
like a melody
[oooh]
when the trees lose their leaves in the winter
when the sun warms my skin in the spring
you'll be here with me, electricity
listen to the whispers
gentle tap on the shoulder
you'll be guiding me ....electricity....
I hope you keep singing the Tennessee Waltz
cos you'll always be dancing in my heart
and it might be the end of your body
but only the start of your journey
electricity....
