when the signs do look concerning ones you love they'll see a warning so you dig yourself a new one and when it rains you'll shout up to 'em it's no fair to you come back and be nobody it's nothing new vacation away awhile come back and renew come back and be nobody don't have to be you when it's hard to remember that a trust is built from embers so you forge 'em in a way that makes the most use so you skip the stones you lay down, watch 'em sink into the lake now your path is laid ajar, what's left to take? it's no fair to you come back and be nobody it's nothing new vacation away awhile come back and renew come back and be nobody don't have to be you show up in a later body with no payments due it's no fair to you

i've been trying to relax now baby can you show me, how does it feel waking up to smell the garden picking on the herbs that you will soon eat? i've been feeling far from average all my friends are making the best of the best i've been trying to relax now baby can you show me? i've said way too much i've bitten the dust and it's settled it's done you said way too much i've bitten my tongue now i'm tasting on blood i said way too much you've given me more than i can return i've been trying to relax now baby can you show me?

Paga 02:12
i could never muster courage to inquire about the war fleeting you might be but i guess that's what traveling is for we cope in different ways even your two daughters never heard a single word to my dismay half a year gone by, your skin is frail your frame's a smaller state in an email you revealed to the adults a recent fate oh, Western medecine don't you let him down before i'm coming home

Spring Break 04:15
It's just telemarketer home phone ring Answered to receive and the news did sting It's bad watching your dad break down Your process delayed for the days to follow I was staring up at the ceiling in Hopes of making shapes out from cracks in the paint So long companion and friend This won't fully mend it's gone I was smoking Spirits on top of trees Trying to hear your voice in the springtime breeze Eugene is no place to grieve I'll sit and wait this one out for the weeks to follow You've returned but you are a different shade You've been haunting all of my dreams in the AM You know it's no good to tease When I wake you'll be long gone You left with a trace now I've been chasing in your steps I'm still being haunted Me'n my friends we visit the family Drink to blindness next to the grassy street Where we would roam to be free where You would always take lead and where we would follow You've returned but you are a different shade You've been haunting all of my dreams in the AM You know it's no good to tease When I wake you'll be long gone You left with a trace now I've been chasing in your steps I'm still being haunted

Chamaco 03:04
i'll hold you to the highest regard you held me on the lowest of days tucked me in when i could not sleep bringing water by the side of the bed told me stories about that boy who wanted the rainbow but could not understand that the rainbow was for everyone to share i'll hold you to the highest regard

Better Days 04:03
Thinking 'bout those days when we would have the time to think the days away now that ship has sailed away Living out a life and grinding all the time Relief is far and few in between but I've seen those Better days (Call me mister better) I've seen those better days (Will this be forever?) I've seen those better days 'cause they're coming 'round the corner 'Cause I'm searching for those Better days, better days, comin' 'round the corner When I had the time I didn't know what I had I won't take that for granted 'cause lately I've been planted and this planet hasn't felt the same for quite a minute Infinity lies over horizons where I find those Better days I've seen those better days I've seen those better days 'cause they're coming 'round the corner 'Cause I'm searching for those Better days, better days, comin' 'round the corner I'm searching for those better better days
