Hey man, you’ve got some good ideas
I’m taking issue with your follow through
These plans you gotta learn to execute After you
Climb out of that hole you dug using plastic knives
This isn’t real, I’ll throw you a rope
Please come back to life Tonight
Courage, although in short supply
You can borrow some of mine
I don’t mind, I don’t mind
Climb out of that hole you dug using plastic knives
This isn’t real, I’ll throw you a rope
Please come back to life
I can’t wait to see you out there
I will rush down the stairs
Buy two tickets to paradise
No questions asked
Where would you go if you could go anywhere?
It’s a loop. This wild storm rages inside of you.
I’ll cheer you on until you make it through safe
On the other side after you
Climb out of that hole you dug using
Climb out of that hole you dug using
I can’t wait to see you out there
I will rush down the stairs
Buy two tickets to paradise
No questions asked
I can’t wait to see you out there
I will rush down the stairs and buy two tickets to anywhere that’s nice this time of year

Feels Like Home
04:08
|

|
We left when everything was in bloom
slow explosions of pink and blue
I hid the keys outside of your bedroom
And something heavy in me starts to break loose
All the weight between those shoulderblades
I’m sorry I don’t know what to tell you
The directions say we’re still on route
Guided by the light of the moon
We’re lost in every sense of the truth
When you feel insane seek out empty space
What if everywhere you go feels like home everywhere you go
everywhere you go feels like home?
We left when everything was doomed
While your enemies come looking for you
Broken by the sound of the tune
Something heavy in you starts to break loose
All the weight between those shoulderblades
The hyacinth are growing above you
slow explosions of pink and blue
When you feel insane seek out empty space
Homesick for the holiday
When you feel insane seek out empty space
What if everywhere you go feels like home everywhere you go everywhere you go feels like home?

Coastal Ghost Town
03:24
|

|
we’re walking through rows of these salt-ruined homes
where the ocean overflows
we’ll count up the days of our skeleton phase
where no one has to know
how you hide your pain
oh I know that you will go down the Oregon coast
down the 101
love, the threat became a hoax
high bartab at most
this will be tons of fun
this isn’t a race I know you cannot pace yourself
when the lighthouse beckons you home
we’ll count up the days of our skeleton phase
one thousand broken bones Yeah I know
what a waste of time to make up your mind
oh I know that you will go down the Oregon coast
down the 101
love, you left me in a coastal ghost town
without a soul around
you are everyone I love when I’m buzzed I love everyone when I’m buzzed
oh I know that I will go to the sunshine and snow
through the glass and smoke
love, you lost me in a coastal ghost town
without a soul around, without a soul, without a sound

Magical Thinking
04:20

lost in a daze for the last 500 days
I’d be amazed if we found our way back to your place
drunken stumble black out passing cars
I’m in trouble with the stars
endless dizzy spells
remind me of the hell I built around myself
magical thinking I think it’s starting to work out
mind is erased like a forest set ablaze
what still remains I can pick apart a faint trace
your tracks lead in ash out from the fire light
trail ends at the smoking riverside
endless dizzy spells
remind me of the hell I built around myself
do you share this sinking feeling we’ve met before in different bodies?
magical thinking
must be starting to work out I swear
magical thinking
I think it’s starting to work out

when the morning is free from obligations
how will you treat that apprehension
maybe there is nothing ever
to match the memories having once
been young together?
your mind needed sunlight
the current relieves your jellyfish indecision
repeat after me I’m not drowning
maybe there is nothing better
than noticing the air pass through your lungs
your mind needed sunlight
the past spreads out in front of you
a thousand memories stretch in streaks across the salt flats
while the future is quietly stalking you
like a mountain lion
aware of your climbing
what’s eating you? look what’s eating you

you are everyone I love when I’m buzzed
I love everyone when I’m buzzed
you are everyone I love and I trust
so give me the keys to your truck
I swear, I swear on your mother I won’t do anything dumb

Are You Happy Now?
03:45
|
|||
|
you exist in a liminal space
like a watercolor portrait in the rain
I thought I saw you at the liquor store
with your tattered copy of 10:04
I held open the door too long for a total stranger
are you happy now
are you happy now I'm down
are you happy now that this is all over
and there's nothing to show, nothing to show
except some purple prose
boxes and boxes of purple prose
have you ever witnessed something happen
so beautiful it made you feel afraid?
long lines at the grocery store
another once-in-a-lifetime store
you boarded up your doors
while we charged into danger
are you happy now
are you happy now I'm down
are you happy now that this is all over
and there's nothing to show, nothing to show
except some purple prose
and I don't have the heart to throw it out

we watched an ocean rising outside our door
we don’t leave here anymore
gather up chairs and blankets
let’s build a fort to stay inside
and play video games
I’m not sure that what you heard was just the wind
I’ll put on a brave face after this glass of gin
the sinking shoreline really fucked up our plans
wrote our future in the sand
we feel collective in our sadness
my heart’s become a haunted house
I’m not sure that what you heard was only in your mind
I’ll go check once I find AA’s for the flashlight
What will you do when your mind turns up against you?
Don’t know how much I trust you not to ghost us
Sometimes it’s better just to disappear
Sooner the better
you will disappear

I can’t wait to see you out there
with the wind in your hair
a smoldering stare
crushes all attempts I’ve made to play it cool
from this space everything seems blue
off in the distance, the ocean’s rising
a big decision starts to dawn on us
last call at the lighthouse
how about I buy us a round
and we stay until they kick us out
last call at the lighthouse
and we stay until they make us close out
goodnight
it’s late
please get home safe
