300 years in the forest Found the solution to life Growing from roots when you cut me I can survive like the hydra Walk through my eyes for your weakened bones Then you can leave me alone I can survive like the hydra I can survive like the hydra Now you can leave me alone

Now I’m on that hill Field before me and woods around Just a hop skip from my house In the heart of the ville Why do I only see you in my sleep During the summer we went there often Rode our bikes over to the train tracks Setting sticks on the rails then rushing back again Why do I only hear you in my sleep Do you still only wave at the red cars Did your dad find the ax you took We’d never seen him so shook Why do I only see you in my sleep

Underwater Building pressure Say it louder We're alive Underwater We're alive Underwater Swirling laughter Say it louder We're alive Fixed In place The atmosphere's too thin To carry sound I doubt you'll make it You'll end up like the rest Will The beacon Guide us to a life Where The pulse of Spring will overtake the cold: Our Stifled Ripple breaks the seam A smothered flame Grind down the faces Scrape their metal frames Form A vision Unrestrained and wild and Drink Forever Until we can breathe again

Words slip from my mouth Sad, fanged and fragile They beat against you like Glass bottles on brick walls Shining fragments too fine to draw blood Language fails me now It always does in times like these wish I could unsay everything Suck the words back in Mash them between my teeth Mash them Until they can no longer be recognized Language fails me now It always does in times like these wish I could unsay everything But the words hang in the air Like unwelcome guests Unwelcome guests in an unhappy home Language fails me now It always does in times like these wish I could unsay everything

We’ll never know what Became of them Scattered and blown away Never seen again We’ll never know what To say to them It’s over and done with Best just to forget I found something you wrote In a box today Scribbled on some old junk mail Ready to be thrown away I don’t know why I ever needed it But now it feels like Burning a locket

Encapsulate 03:36
Encapsulate the stains, But don’t lift them up Don’t lift them out Bury them in the ground Preserved In memory They stood By me Preserved In memory They heard A quiet scream Encapsulate the stains But don’t lift them up Don’t lift them out Bury them deep down Under the earth To Walk all over them Eliminate the rain And leave them in a desert Leave them in a desert Preserved In memory They stood By me Preserved In memory They heard A quiet scream Encapsulate, encapsulate Encapsulate the stains Retread the tires with ash Smudging the remains Across the pavement To walk all over them Dissemble the skeletons Dissemble the skeletons

Emotions running high, we lift our hands to the sky Pray for peace, pray for sand in this war torn land You disrespect my special day The universe will make you The universe will make you pay Emotions running high, we lift our hands to the sky Pray for the rocks and the sand of this war torn land It’s the day that you will take my hand Apart now, but soon we’ll be together forever You disrespect my special day The universe will make you The universe will make you pay

The whale song calls me down Down down down Down into the deepest depths Down down down Down to the bottom of the ocean I can’t remember the last time I took a breath (I’ve never been so deep) I’m amazed that the sun rays have stretched Down down down Down into the deepest depths (The deepest depths) A siren call that compliments The rapid thumping of my heart Bass and treble merging My pulse is submerged A barely audible throbbing It falls in line with the song you are singing It leads me deeper still So much deeper into you The words I whispered to you I now want to scream Knowing that if I let out my breath At this depth It will be my death

In the back of a closet or In the depths of a pocket Tucked right inside of a locket under the photo In an electrical socket Tied up to a bottle rocket I can live there really I can live anywhere under your fingernails or Inside of a barrel of ale Clinging to hair from a lion tail The coldest of basements Or in the boldest of statements I can live there really I can live anywhere In an alternate universe I’m a sizable tree with its Roots firmly woven throughout the ground Instead I’m more like one of its leaves thats been long disconnected Broken and brittle and free flowing everywhere So I can live anywhere I have no home No home Never felt home
11.
In my dreams In my dreams The table is set but we don’t sit The bed is messed but we don’t make it In my dreams’ dream In my dreams’ dream Met you more times than I can remember Each one in a different role From January on to December In all the homes that are not my own In my dreams though In my dreams, oh-oh I can’t find the moon I can’t find the moon I’ve traveled through so many lives And it’s aged me infinity times In my dreams’ dream In my dreams’ dream Shedding parts along the way Every seven years I disappear Arranging my face with different shapes Allowing the wax to melt and smear In my dreams though In my dreams, oh-oh I can’t find the moon I can’t find the moon The stars have left no map to heaven

You can come take a swim in my ocean of thoughts At your own risk Though the water seems calm there are threats that exist Closer look at the surface Trash is carried by the waves All so carelessly dispersed It's not worth it to save You can come take a swim in my ocean of thoughts If you wish Though the water looks calm there are threats that exist At the drop of a hat you might see darker clouds start to form No more comfortable sun, no more comfortable wind Here comes a storm Closer look at the surface Trash is carried by the waves All so carelessly dispersed It's not worth it to save The deeper that you go The more desolate it gets No grotesque looking creatures No signs of life at all Just stay close to the shore

Stay Awhile 04:40
Let’s take a seat hear We need a moment to rest our legs It’s just another Fleeting summer I scratch the price tag off An empty can of iced tea Enough distractions I can’t help but ask this Why don't you stay awhile? Goodbye can wait until tomorrow Why don't you stay awhile? Goodbye can wait until tomorrow The sun could set in your open palms A fragile orb, exposed and worn We watched it shimmer Until it flickered But do you really have to go? There’s no one laughing anymore I know I’ve asked this But I have to chance it Why don't you stay awhile? Goodbye can wait until tomorrow Why don't you stay awhile? Goodbye can wait until tomorrow
