Shocker

Fearing for the focus felt a frankly folded high
Simply sinking safely sounding suffocating lie
Through the thrusted thorough thought they thread through from before
Laying low but landed lies luck locked out light ignored
How do you get it through?
I wish that I could get away from you
Time to tell intrinsically to televise your mind
Overcast and overlapping overwhelming find
As the abject annexing was apt and yet begun
Preparing the pieces, planned and protested action
How do you get it through?
I wish that I could get away from you
How do you get it through?
I wish that I could get away from you

I fell down when you fell out
Far away
Grief at bay
I fell down when you fell out
No one lasts
Red light passed
I can't stay while you decay
Keep me warm
In the storm
I fell down

Evergreen

we cannot lay in the dark
fueling an ever fading spark
feeling the pieces drift away
watching the embers fade to grey
remember the promise evergreen
but do the ends justify the means?

Ask yourself
Do you really know whats going on?
A flower fell
I think that I finally found whats wrong
And if I get caught on the simplest things
Giving up on that unwritten melody
I take up my time to think
To realize its only passing by
Somehow before I blink
It’s looking me right square in the eye
And if I get caught on the simplest things
Giving up on that unwritten melody
Ask yourself
Do you really know whats going on?
A flower fell
I think that I finally found whats wrong

A Vague Approximation

You called me up, was asking bout a song
Your inflection, I could tell something was wrong
What did you feel like?
Topics changed a few hundred degrees
Your favorite boots were fading I agreed
You said how they felt like
They'd come to you for comfort and respect
Which knowing you they certainly would get
Didn't change what they felt like
The weight of all your words
That I was buried underneath
Begrudgingly agreed
Another promise couldn't keep
I am anchored to it all
Will it all still be here next month?
Next winter or fall?
She stumbled in the dark and all alone
Hope the mumbling resonated through the phone
Understood what she felt like
I can't believe the things some people say
Yet I've pictured it still ending up that way
Asking me what I feel like
Don't always see the picture as a whole
See the sunlight, touch the water, feel the cold
Every day what it feels like
The weight of all your words
That I was buried underneath
Begrudgingly agreed
Another promise couldn't keep
I am anchored to it all
Will it all still be here next month?
Next winter or fall?

Around The Bend

Something's around the bend before you
And I can't say what it is
Something's around the bend waiting for you
Where do we begin
Something's around the bend before you
And I can't say what it is
Something's around the bend waiting for you
Where do we begin
Something's around the bend before you
And I can't say what it is
Something's around the bend waiting for you
Where do we begin
