Soft Eyes 03:28
Wait there soft eyes Don't understand it For just a moment let it go Stay there soft eyes

Now it’s the morning and we’re fine Yeah it’s the morning and we’re fine Save some ice cream cone anxiety withdrawal with me Let’s eat! Let’s eat! I’ve got some freeze dried sunfruit Never be lazy We’ll never be cold And I want you to know I put the cakes in the oven They came out great! Now it’s the morning and we’re fine Another morning and we’re fine It’s the morning and we’re fine Yeah it’s the morning and we’re fine Now you’ve been eaten up And we’ve been eating up And we’ve been eaten up And it’s been eaten up Then you harnessed your malice and didn’t morse code And until the next time, in my head you just don’t And we’ve been eating up And it’s been eaten up And I’ve been eaten up Then you harnessed your malice and didn’t morse code And until the next time, yeah until the next time And it isn’t even malice, acceptance is a schism Isn’t even a decision, it’s just just You know we can’t be satiated thinking of the cake I’d like to bake with you I’m craving the taste and what’s worse We know the recipe is great But the cake mix takes too long to make I’m brewing a batch And I hope this one lasts And I hope this one lasts And I hope this one lasts And I hope this one lasts And I

Hands 05:03
Hands Hold me when my friends start making plans When Mary gets that power from the man And what she'll have to do when her money can't When David picks a country this time for good The hell he'll have to hear from those who wish he would Stick around, friend, stick around, stay put It flatters the ears but holds them from what they should Do and need to do to find our way When the poet trapped in Meredith starts to strain And Steve will be inheriting his father's pay When he sees that he can give it all away And Alex holds all futures in his hands Fast How the sturdiest things tend to come down with a crash And the certainties that time has hardened have failed to last When nostalgia's lost my memories to my past Then I'll focus my energy on what's sure Sure, only when I've lost everything can I be pure Oh, what a waste of time to wait till nothing hurts It's a silly thought and why I won't wait "to be cured" I need to try now but wouldn't mind your hands Hold me when my heart starts making plans Gosh, it's hard to do the right thing, man How can I expect you to understand To let in something new is to let one go Like the stubborn face of cliffs with time erodes Dropping ancient notions that lost their souls Into my past it is an ocean filled with stones I intend to displace oceans I'm ready right now but the end is the worst for us all

At the End 02:55
It's hard not to laugh when it comes out so strong Yes the end is the worst for us all So problems arise and problems resolve The end is the worst for us all There's one in your mirror and there's one in your calm The end is the worst for us all, us all, us all, us all.. It's hard to give up what I never did hold Yes, well the end is the worst for us all There's one in your hands and one in your palm Yes well the end is the worst for us all Cause it's useless to chant, what's coming will come Still the end is the worst for us all But it's hard not to fear while it's taking so long Well the end is the worst for us all Some problems arise while others resolve Yes well the end is the worst for us all And the face of our cliffs with time will dissolve Yes well the end is the worst for us all Either squeeze really hard or go on like it's not Still the end is the worst for us all And what else but laugh while it's taking so long? Well the end is the worst for us all

When you find out it was all for nothing who will you be? Who will you see? Who will you be? It's always over nothing, you've got to learn anything It's already ending, do you ever do anything?

Forgetness 04:14
It draws from the sweat of a car Heya There's tension in everything Tension in everything Then draws from the quiet of a core Heya Now I would do anything I would do anything I threw the chair from the porch The forgetness said heya And no one said anything No one said anything Then draws from the quiet of a core Heya Now I would do anything For the no one, do anything I threw the chair from the porch The forgiveful of heya And no one said anything No one said anything
7.
It's Not You 07:03
So many places that I call my home and I want to exist in the skin I was born in It stays on my mind My brain gets so twisted I miss my brother and I miss my sisters It's not you It's you and it's light as a feather And it tickles a sneeze, it keeps me up all night It's not you When it's you Step out of the light just long enough to know You were never in the light Just long enough to know So step into the dark Well it's hard enough to know You were never in the light But just long enough to know It's not you When it's you I want to exist in the skin I was born in
