Green Light

Waiting for the green light to come on
Will I be waiting all night long?
Stuck in the mirror; trying to see it clearer
I can feel the blood rushing through me
I feel it in my bones and it's stuck in my teeth
I'll send it across the nation station to station
Then all the days they turn into the unforgiving nights
and all we need has been nailed down to the ground
every time she sails across my colorless sky
everything comes crashing down
Everyone's dressed in their Sunday best but I'm still hungover I confess
Why did we go that far? She landed in the ER
Shot for the moon and now it's gone this is what you wanted all along
the sea won't carry you no matter what you do now.
All the days they turn into the unforgiving nights
and all we need has been nailed down to the ground
every time she sails across my colorless sky
everything comes crashing down
All the days come crashing down on top of me
All the days come crashing down on top of me
All the days they turn into the unforgiving nights
and all we need has been nailed down to the ground
every time she sails across my colorless sky
everything comes crashing down
All the days come crashing down on top of me
All the days come crashing down on top of me
All the days come crashing down on top of me
All the days come crashing down on top of me

Catharsis
03:42

The dogs are going to town while I rock in this chair dreaming a fable
The children sleep sound while the restless wind it kicks up dirt
My mind's asleep now cause the days they never seem to tire
So where are you now if you won't come home I'll lock the door.
So what happens when the hourglass runs out of sand
Will the earth break forth and show us all we've done wrong
I'm getting tired of walking down such a narrow path
I'll sing a song for you to carry on to carry on
It's only one beat too many with a tired refrain
I just could not think of anything to say to you to say to you
at the end of this day, I'm just lost in a reverie entwined with catharsis and woe.
[Chorus 2]
It's only one beat too many with a tired refrain
I just could not think of anything to say to you to say to you
at the end of this day, I'm just lost in a reverie entwined with catharsis and woe.

When I was, a young boy I used to cast my net much further
Now all I wanna do is stay in bed
So tell me, who should I be? A vagrant son, a lucid dreamer
Strike matches to wicker so I can burn again
An old dream she wrote to me such silver words they spoke so softly
and I never wanna feel that way again
So throw me to the open sea and radio waves come crash into me
and sink me to slumber once again
"Wake up!" You fell into a dream without me
"Wake up!" Throw away memories of eighteen
"Wake up! Grow up!" But I don't wanna fall into that fantasy of you and me again
Everything that I see is real and everyone I know can feel just the way I used to be
I'll let you know when I know: that all that glitters is not gold. Come catch me when my spirit falls again.
Can't you see it's when you glow and when you shimmer you're not alone the weight gets lighter so come out and play
What heat will keep us when there's none? When everything under the sun and stars eventually finally fades away like me but I...

Grounded in the hanger wings all beaten, battered
I've tended to my wounds and cleaned the blood that I've splattered
Been here for a year finally we're clear to depart
Let me take you to the sky Our time's in short supply
The scars and holes left by foes Can't stop me from the path I chose
Let's forget the tears and woes today they're just troubles for yesterday
Anxiety creeps up on me like the grinds within my coffee
I've taken too much rest and the jitters in my chest
are racing like the sunlight on the ocean's crest
ohhhhh
Let me take you to the sky Our time's in short supply
The scars and holes left by foes Can't stop me from the path I chose
Let's forget the tears and woes today they're just troubles for yesterday
The engine's hot, the props are running,
The tank is full, the guns are gunning,
Times have changed, the clouds are gone,
I have changed, we must go on.
The world is so beautiful from way up here
All our troubles seem to up and disappear
The engine's hot, the props are running
The tank is full, the skies are stunning,
Times have changed, the clouds are gone,
I have changed, we must go on.

Up in the Air

How long will we stay up in the air?
Before we dive under the sea the despair?
We'll take and visit without a doubt
We'll keep flying at least for now

Liar
06:45

The walls torn down and the spiders start crawling right through my skin
The wheels stop turning painting shadows on the ceiling is it too much to ask for some rest
Let me know if I’m wrong I’ve been searching for that arrow at the end of the road
But maybe just maybe I’m a liar and I have no place to go no place to call home
Late-night drive and the rain is pouring heavy over my soul
I take my time lurking all over frantically life takes its toll
There’s nothing on the radio anymore spinning the dial like a pinwheel without hope
But maybe just maybe there is something out there for me to know for me to hold
I gotta get that ringing outta my ears
Yeah we’ve gotta stop the noise
Gotta fight through all the goddamn tears
Yeah we’ve gotta stop the noise
Why are you singing at the moon
Yeah we’ve gotta stop the noise
Pass the stairs on the way up
We’ve gotta stop the noise
Whoa-oh-oh
Whoa-oh
I gotta get that ringing outta my ears
Yes we will stop the noise
Don’t worry I can dry my tears
Yes we will stop the noise
Yes we will stop the noise
Whoa-oh-oh
Whoa-oh

Wedding Song
04:42

She's waiting in the chapel for her groom to arrive
Oh what she didn't know is that he'll never show
Floating in the hotel pool slowly drifting away
What was meant to be has ended suddenly
Oh We're just fools in love
waiting for our stars above
Oh it's all crystal clear
when I'm here with you
When hearts unfold a love it grows a life hard to sustain
a fact they did not miss and yet it has come to this
the piano's trill does not pay the bills
so her father's dogs came and they took him away
Oh We're just fools in love
waiting for our stars above
Oh it's all crystal clear
when I'm here with you
Oh We're just fools in love
waiting for our stars above
Oh it's all crystal clear
when I'm here with you

Ulysses

When the sun is gone the moon hangs low
She casts a long shadow of tear for fear that you’re never coming home
Like Ulysses endless sea keeps you far away from us for so long while we wait for your
Song to play on the airwaves through midsummer nights the blusterous fall and when you’re gone...
She tells me all the dreams of you and every single word and color bleeds through
Can you come carry the light on that burning sunrise you appear
Are you really here?
When the moon is full she casts her magic on the slumbering world so wide yet I can’t hide
From the monsters and magicks below my own bastard skin and are you coming? While we
Wait for the day to break on this town, she’s colored in blue cellophane lights and when it’s right
She tells me all the dreams of you and every single word and color bleeds through
Can you come carry the light on that burning sunrise you appear
Are you really here?
Sail me down I am the water I’ll lead you
Sail me down I am the water I’ll lead you
Sail me down I am the water I’ll lead you home.
