Owls

In the forest morning light shines down
On everything and illuminates the whole world
All the shade fades away like all the sad faces
And lightly brushes on the top of your eyelids
Drops of rain dissipate as the sun rise
Peaks above the horizon through the calm haze
You are the moon hanging over me gently
Shining down cause you know that you are everything to me
Lets stay huddled in this tree together
Lets stay warm on these branches forever
And we'll always know the way
We'll know love is real
And it's not a dream though it feels just like a daydream
Every time you turn your head to catch a glance of me
Hearing my heart flutter like dragonfly wings
Knowing that the moon will be our night time release
No, it's not a dream though it feels just like a daydream
Every time you turn your head to catch a glimpse of me
Hearing my heart flutter like dragonfly wings
Knowing that the moon will be our night time release
Lets stay huddled in this tree together
Lets stay warm on these branches forever
And we'll always know the way
We'll know love is real
So we'll stayed perched here against the oak tree
With moon light radiating through the tired leaves
And we'll speak softly to each other in a way that makes the stars shine brighter
And shine through the night, the fog, the rain, the heat; the snow, the thunder bolt that cracks the sky in two
And a tear falls down your cheek and at that moment time stands still
You take my lonely hand and I close my eyes so tight and hope for love
And I'm here because of you:
My sweetest Star
My glowing Moon
My shining Sun
My perfect Breeze
My only Cloud
My little Owl
Hold through the night the only light
That beams from your eyes and keeps me alive
I hope you know the calm you'd bring me with just your heart beat
And your breath singing me to sleep
And I'm here because of you
And I have found what I've been searching for
Because now I know what the universe was created for:
Just to hold our love
Just to hold our love

Sparks Fly Up
03:52
|
|
||
|
Think of the sweetest thing you've ever thought:
You're better than that
You're better than that
I know that polaroids and piano chords are two of your favorite things
And I know that we could lay in bed all day dreaming of things
Like a future and what it will bring
And I feel like I'm falling in love again
Every time that I see you sparks fly up
And out of my heart and into the sky
To light up the night so we can dance and breathe
And I know, I know that this could never change
Cause I try my best to give you my all
And I feel like I'm falling in love again
Every time that I see you sparks fly up
And I feel just like I'm falling in love again
Every time that I see you sparks fly up
So I just want you to know I will never let you go

Wasting Away
04:19
|
|
||
|
When you come home from a long day
I'll be waiting here for you
If you're lonely and you need me to stay
You know I'd love to
I don't care if you're too tired
To lift your mouth to say those things
That you want to say but I know you think
So lets waste this night away together
Close your eyes
While the moon shines just outside your room
It's where I want to be
So fucking desperately with you
No, I don't care if you're too tired
To open your door to let me in
I'll sneak in somehow
So we can waste this night away together
I know someday you'll be my star
And I know someday you won't be too far
But tonight I just know that I've been missing you
And I'll wait for you fall back in love with me
I don't care if you're too scared
To say what you really think because I'm not
I know I still love you
I know I still need you
So lets waste this night away
Lets waste our days away
Lets waste our years away
Lets waste this fucking life away together

Under The Covers
03:08
|
|
||
|
Sunshine sneaking through the window
Tugging on your eyelids
Moving down your cheek
Pull off your sheets
Wake up and breathe
You've been waiting under the covers
I've been waiting for you for so long, so long
Shadows dancing on the windows
Dive into the sunshine
Cover up the light
Pull back those sheets
Over our cheeks
We've been waiting under the covers
Waiting for each other
Or maybe it's just me
Maybe it's just me
I slowly let your breath swallow me from miles away
So I can sleep for the first time in weeks

Leaving
04:27
|
|
||
|
Take your time
I've got my whole life
And I can close my eyes
So I can hear your heartbeat
Late at night when I can't sleep
I think of you breathing
Stay quiet for now
We've got a lot not to talk about
And I wish was standing there to watch the sun set with you
Sleep for now
We've got a lot just to dream about
I know I do
I have nothing to say
I did nothing all day except wait for you
And it's all I do but it's all I want to do
Late at night
When all our stars are shining bright
I think of you breathing
So fucking scared of you leaving
So stay quiet for now
We've got a lot not to talk about
And I wish was standing there to watch the sun set with you
Sleep for now
We've got a lot just to dream about
I know I do and know it's about you
And how I need to not stop thinking about you
Stay quiet for now
We've got a lot not to talk about
But I wish was standing there to watch the moon shine with you
Sleep for now
We've got a lot just to dream about
I know I do
I know I do
I know I do

Sometimes
05:35
|
|
||
|
You've been waiting for days for a reason to stay
The way that you change is the way that I stay the same
I know you forget every waking moment
And sometimes I'm fine
But mostly I'm not.
The static from your favorite sweater
Taking pictures from the highway in your car
Now it's all in my head and it's never again
And I'm wondering why
I even try to breathe.
But it's all I want to know.
You're all I want to know.
Still I'll wait for days in the rain
So that my tears never fade
And your ghost is the same
And sometimes I'm fine
But mostly I'm not.
When every second's a second I'd take back
But every day is a blink in forever
Still I tried every way to make you stay
Is my bed not warm?
Are my eyes too worn?
And I'm wondering why
I even try to breathe.
But I still dream of the universe
And how it reminds me of us.
Yet it never fades unlike how I'll fade
It's unexplainable and it's unbearable
I can't take anymore so I fall to the floor.
Can you believe that I still breathe alone?

The Universe
05:48
|
|
||
|
At the center of the universe
We believe there's a black hole
Last night with my eyes closed
I swear that I reached it's edge
So I took your hand so it would drag us in
And even light could not escape
And you were mine forever
At the very edge of the universe
There's no more space and time
And all our stars and our galaxies
Are far beyond my reach
But I took my hand and I stretched as far as I could go
So I remember you forever
So Moon don't be so far
The Earth it needs your pull
And Moon don't be too far
Because I still I need you
From now on every second I'll try to travel back in time
To see your face just as it used to be when it used to be mine
Do you want to know why the universe reminds me so much of you?
Because it's all I'll ever know
And it's inconceivably beautiful
But at the center of my universe
There's only you
There's only you
There's only you
There's only you and I forever

Chemicals
05:01
|
|
||
|
We're two chemicals
Thrown into an unlabeled beaker
The mad scientist insists it won't explode
But the solution starts to boil when I dissolve into you
Because I always gave into you
I'd understand if at the end of the world
You want to be alone.
But since I sense it's so soon
I'm starting to wonder why.
I guess I'll be fine.
But am I ever fine at all?
We're just two chemicals
Obeying the laws that we're told
If I move to you, you move away
And you can break all my bonds but I will reform
Because I won't give up on you
And I'd understand if at the end of the world
You want to be alone
But since it's already here
I'm starting to wonder why
I guess I'll be fine
But I'm not ever fine at all
You used to be my enantiomer
But now you're just my diastereomer

Dear Moon
07:09
|
|
||
|
Dear Moon,
I've been missing you
I noticed lately that you're not as full as you used to be
Or as bright as you need to be to light up this wasteland for me
Dear Moon,
I've been needing you
Without you here light subtracts itself
My days and my nights become a blur
And my sleep doesn't occur anymore
It used to be that I was enough
It used to be that our love filled the universe
It used to be that I wouldn't cry
It used to be that I loved the night
But not anymore
I hope you know that I still wear my ring
I hope you know I still have my plane
I hope you know that I still hold our bear
I hope you know that I don't think it's fair
I hope you know that I still love you more
I hope you know that I still won't be forgetting you
And after everything I know I'm stupid for forgiving you
But mostly for still needing you
So come back home into my arms
And let our life take it's course

Forever Yours
06:54
|
|
||
|
Falling to my knees
On this blade of pavement clinging
To the starlight clawing through my skin
Then your silence pulls my veins
Through my throat into my grave
With the rain washing my memories from me
My heart it doesn't beat
Against my lovers cheeks
My finger tips don't touch
The girl I love too much
My eyes do not see
What is everything to me
And my voice will not work
Because it's forever yours
Forever yours
So I slide off the edge of this earth
Hoping space will pull me into the sun
So I can feel the true warmth of love burning me up
And when those particles collide on my skin
I'll be wishing you were here at my end
So the last thing I saw was like the first time that I felt alive in my entire life
Now my heart it won't beat
Against my lovers cheeks
My finger tips won't touch
The girl I loved too much
My eyes will not see
What was everything to me
And my voice will cry out one more time
Please save me
So my heart it won't beat
Against your fucking cheeks
My finger tips won't touch
Your fucking skin
And my eyes will not meet
Your fucking gorgeous blue seas
My voice will never work
Because it's forever yours
It's forever yours
(Please save me)

These Old Bones
07:43
|
|
||
|
This old skin and these old bones
They slowly turn to dust
With each full moon to stir my memories awake
These tired eyes and these starving lungs
They slowly fade with time
Because each second I spent living was apparently a lie
So lets breathe slowly
Pretend we're on time
With each other like all those long nights
So we can remember
Entwined knees under those sheets
Without being afraid of wasting away
This broken heart waits for its last beat
So it can finally be set free
Then I turn into a ghost so I won't feel anything,
Much like you
So lets breathe slowly
Pretend we're on time
With each other like all those long nights
So we can remember
Entwined knees under those sheets
Without being afraid of wasting away
This old skin and these old bones
No, they don't work anymore

Learning To Sleep
05:05
|
|
||
|
Every night I wait
Until I can see your face in the shadows
Just so I can fall asleep and have a nightmare
Wake up shivering
You're a thunderbolt that lands on me
With low probability
You're a chainsaw cutting me in half
In a horror movie
I'm a waste of life now
People tell me to grow up and move on
But no one's like me just like no one's like you
And I'd rather be the ground you strike
Than someone safe at home
And I'd rather be in a million pieces
Than safely breathing and whole without you
It's what you do to me.
It's what you do to me
And if it's what I have to face
So you realize your true place
Then bring it on.
Bring it all fucking on.

Light Subtracts Itself
05:32
|
|
||
|
One last breath of nitrogen
For everyone and everything that's ever been
But don't you go losing your sleep
Over little old me
You know I miss you
But I won't miss you anymore.
And I think about the times that I sung all night
So you could close your eyes
But now I know I'm not that reason anymore
And so that's why
It's not worth breathing anymore
You know I miss you
But I won't miss you anymore.
After tonight when I take this knife
To end my life
So I won't miss you anymore.
