I'm Not Here
04:12
|

The wind wiped the tracks,
Don’t tell the cops I’m here, I’m not here
There’s nothing to see looking back
The sea is clear
That fluttering sound is just the darkness coming down
I’m not here, I’m not there
I’m not here, I’m not there
I had my feet on the ground, I had my head in the heavens
That was when you were around, now I’m closer to the ground, and sometimes on it
I used to hold my chin like this and my hips like so
But that was when I was around, I was around
That was when I was around, I was around
But I’m not here, I’m not there
I’m not here, I’m not there

Easy Gone, Easy Come
03:29
|
|||
Underneath the deep dark valley
Up above the highest boundary
My heart was singing out when I found out
Easy gone, easy come it’s for you this one
When I sat under the bright light
And I said to you I’m gonna set my heart right
Am I ready for this change? Will he own his middle name?
Easy gone, easy come it’s for you this one
Now what are we gonna call him?
Will he be brave if they persecute him?
Will the babe have starry eyes? Will he stay up late at night?
Easy gone, easy come it’s for you this one
Well, will we live to see your children?
Will you be a wrecking ball with good intention?
Will you learn from your mistakes? Will you punch above your weight?
Easy gone, easy come it’s for you this one
Will he wander over misty mountains?
Watch city smog roll over buildings?
Will you lie at heaven’s gate? Will you get into a scrape?
Easy gone, easy come it’s for you this one
Will you find love in the eyes of a stranger,
In a far off land full of adventure?
Will you settle down near home or will you wind up all alone?
Easy gone, easy come it’s for you this one
Will your goal be for many riches,
Or will you find what real wealth is?
Will you want after a lot or will you give away what you’ve got?
Easy gone, easy come it’s for you this one
Will you search for real wisdom,
Or spend your life tryna kick against the system?
Will you enter a bright light and come out with clearer sight?
Easy gone, easy come it’s for you this one
Easy gone, easy come it’s for you this one
Easy gone, easy come it’s for you this one

Taking Over
02:42
|

When you’re the last of a dying breed
Trees in your garden that you knew from seeds
Then what are you gonna do?
Like God or Lucifer I’ll get to you
Who’s taking over?
Who’s taking over from you now you’re a sinking stone?
You’re steady rolling but I’m bound to float
What’s yours is mine what’s mine is out of view
I’ll keep coming
What’s yours is mine what’s mine is out of you
I’ll keep coming

Where does all my time go?
Where does all my time go?
Where does all my time go?
Where does all my time go?
I’m stepping back into the past
I didn’t know that I would
Be realigned to the one that I love
I’m opening my eyes to things from above
From above
I stepping back into the past
I didn’t know that I would
Be reassigned to search for her love
I’m opening my eyes to things from above
From above
I’m young, I’m stretched, I’m tryna be free
She’s in my head like a melody
When will she sing along with me?
When will she sing along with me?

A Song For Nico
02:35
|

They told me you wouldn’t make it
They didn’t know who you were that day
Dragged you out in the open
Tiny bones and a fragile frame
From the moment we knew you
Reduced us to tears
First time I held you
The bitter and sweet my dear
And I promise to be a shelter to you my dear
I promise to always protect you
Caught a look in your eye like
You knew the game had changed
All the courage inside you
Victorious that day
And we promise to be a shelter to you always
Yes we promise to always protect you

Ailsa
04:06

Your face suddenly aged
When you heard the news that day
I found you standing in the dark
Before you try to break my heart
You know I see you, what’s been and gone
I’m sure he sees you and cheers you on
We all need you to pull through this one
What I’m trying to say…
You’ve been fighting for so long
You jumped the gun
And now dreams don’t ring so sweet in your ears
Crippled by fear
And it pours out your mouth while you scream and you shout
That your trading is done for the day
And it rolls of your tongue like a funeral song
And still rings when the procession’s long gone
The walls you built around your heart
That precious treasure map of scars
And the charade they made of it
Came crashing down it didn’t hurt a bit
You know I see you, and all that you are
I understand you, the hand that was drawn
Can’t protect you when you’re in the storm
And you push away…
You’ve been fighting for so long
You jumped the gun
And now dreams don’t ring so sweet in your ears
Crippled by fear
And it pours out your mouth while you scream and you shout
That your trading is done for the day
And it rolls of your tongue like a funeral song
And still rings when the procession’s long gone

Silver Spoon
02:44
|
|||
I’ve seen your face shining
Like something you’d see on TV
Your pale eyes drill deep down inside
To the bones of me
And I can see my maker in you
Holding you showing you it’s true
Shining you up like a silver spoon
So just do the things you do
Yesterday is gone it’s run away from
You no longer care
Each new day slowly slipping away
Never to be lived again
And I can see creation in you
It’s got everything in store for you
Shining you up like a silver spoon
So just do the things you do

The Raise
02:15
|
|||
Falling through the waves into the ocean
Calling on your name and words unspoken
Nothing seems to matter when you’re near
I begin to flatter you my dear
I’m breaking my back
My heart’s there on tap
Tired eyed and feeling blue
Wishing to collapse into your gaze
I feel the raise
Breaking through the haze into the rocks and
Calling on your name no introduction
Calm and understanding you
Seem to make your own way through
I’m breaking my back
My heart’s there on tap
Tired eyed and feeling blue
Wishing to collapse
I’m breaking my back
My heart’s there on tap
Tired eyed and feeling blue
Wishing to collapse into your gaze
I feel the raise

Reassured
02:50
|
|||
Take another look at yourself she’ll only
Take another swing at your health and then you’re lonely
And who’s gonna nurse a broken heart when you let nobody in
Then all you’ll need is time apart from the world you’re living in
All you want is to be someone worth fighting for
And to be reassured
There’s a man who lives inside your head and he tells you what to do
But girl will you listen to me instead ‘cause I know what’s best for you
You wake and the days are dreary and wet and you’ve had it with yourself
All you need to hear is that you’re really someone else
You’re someone else
All you want is to be someone worth something more
All you want is to be someone worth singing for
And to be reassured
You get lonely
You get lonely
you get lonely
