I don't like this feeling here Something in the air my dear Makes me wanna jump out of my skin But for now let's just lay in bed Scratching noises out of sight Things that go bump in the night Not as strange as they might seem You know, I hear them too Don't be scared, they cannot hear us back Cryptic signs of what's to come The universe's smoking gun This is not the end just yet We still have time to spend Vulnerable as first day born Weary, teary, wise and worn Near-poetic how we are So bare, so close So scared, just ghosts A shell upon the sandy shore Are you ready? Charge on count of One, two, one two three four!

As the Crow Flies 02:46
lyrics

A rose right in the middle of a million dandelions The sun gives you a spotlight from above I wonder how we got here, how I’d love to hear the story How we made this place our own and called it love The breeze blows through the branches, over ripples in the water As the pond reflects the boundless bright blue sky The birds all sing along as we hum our little songs And I run away from telling you goodbye Meet me in the middle, at the place where it all started Where I held your head so tightly to my chest How bittersweet and strange to be in love and brokenhearted I never did go back after you left A hundred fifty miles as the crow flies, then I’m with you Yeah, I’m a little drunk, but is it okay if I kiss you? We promised not to say a word, but darling how I miss you More and more with every day that passes by Now I’m laughing, and I’m smiling, and I’m screaming, and I’m crying It’s a double-sided sword that I cannot tell you I’m dying All that’s left for me to do is just keep singing, acting, dancing No more earthly wants or wishes, without you I’m done romancing Nevermore, now life’s a bore Meet me in the middle, at the place where it all started Where I held your head so tightly to my chest How bittersweet and strange to be in love and brokenhearted I never did go back after you left A hundred fifty miles as the crow flies, then I’m with you Yeah, I’m a little drunk, but is it okay if I kiss you? We promised not to say a word, but darling how I miss you More and more with every day that passes by A hundred fifty miles as the crow flies, then I’m with you Yeah, I’m a little drunk, but is it okay if I kiss you? We promised not to say a word, but darling how I miss you More and more with every day that passes by (Now I’m laughing, and I’m smiling, and I’m screaming, and I’m crying It’s a double-sided sword that I cannot tell you I’m dying All that’s left for me to do is just keep singing, acting, dancing No more earthly wants or wishes, without you I’m done romancing) Nevermore

New Year's Eve 03:06
lyrics
buy track
I know the season’s got us coming undone in the wind But would you like to start it over? We’ve got our reasons, I won’t ask if you don’t tell At least it can’t get any colder Now the ground outside is 10 below But until you say you’ll stay, I’ve gotta know Was this past year as good as you had hoped it would be Or could you not sink any lower? For just one night, can we act like nothing will change? Let’s pretend we’re not getting any older All the friends that we call family will be here And I’ll leave better than you found me for next year

Sycamore 04:11
lyrics
buy track
The scent of autumn nights, when the leaves can’t quite Decide if they are red or green, or something in between Birds and leaves are all the same, with only one change Birds can make the choice to fly against the breeze with which the leaves remain Could a rose by any other name sound as sweet when coupled with the blame? Over fields the sun is trying hard to show that it’s still shining But I haven’t felt it on my skin I’m no good at documenting life without embellishment Can’t turn thoughts into a song if no one cares what it all meant When did this become so hard? Can’t find footing for a start I’ll look anywhere to find that which seems to make me lose my mind Minutes blur to hours blur to days. Seasons pass, I’m left to watch the haze Weekends that I don’t remember, ties I never had to had to sever Conscious, yes but more than that, I’m dazed Pillars rise of smoke and ash, brazenly against the clash All self-interest, no self-worth, could time away be any worse to me? Does the sycamore by the pond still stand? Does the sycamore by the pond still stand? Underneath, the leaves have fallen; gone are both the sun and pollen Flowers wilt and die to show the transformation: forward, slowly I got up and fell back down again. Stagnancy is more than just a friend Can anybody hear me? Is anybody listening? Can anybody hear me? Is anybody listening? Can anybody hear me? Is anybody listening? Can anybody hear me? Is anybody listening? Can anybody hear me? Is anybody listening? Does the sycamore by the pond still stand? Does the sycamore by the pond still stand?

It's a Nice Day (To Know Nothing)! 04:07
lyrics
buy track
I just woke up and it’s a nice day to know nothing! Ain’t no doubt I’d rather be asleep With a night like that, I’m just glad that I got something Now the sun’s come out and it’s a nice day to know nothing! I sing my songs and it’s a nice day to know nothing! But it’s all wrong, ‘cause it’s all as it seems When I watch the news, don’t want a “Hey boys, we got something!” ‘Cause ignorance is bliss, and it’s a nice day to know nothing! Everything we have to fear? Don’t worry about it Though it’s not only in our minds But when they wear a thousand faces, they’ll be put back in their places It’s only a matter of time Who can find a place to protest the government? This day-to-day dystopia has got to end Let’s find a little place where we can be permanent Any price we pay to get there will be money well spent Everything we have to fear, don’t worry about it Though it’s not only in our minds But when they wear a thousand faces, they’ll be put back in their places It’s only a matter of time I’ve come to find that it’s a nice day to know nothing! And I’ve lost my mind just thinkin’ ‘bout the greed I think I wrote this song because I just gotta do something And it’s so abrupt, we gotta try to disrupt They screwed the planet up, let’s move to Canada Because we just woke up and it’s a nice day to know nothing!
