Whispers
03:14

I harbor doubts that our dreams are streamlined as you turn and shout, “You! Hurry up! What could possibly be wrong with you now?”
I am my light, I am my head.
Now I’m my dying words instead.
I’m still here, that much is clear.
And I hear their whispers through our fight, my dear.
My dear, oh dear, dear, dear, dear, dear
Take me. Drag my thoughts down your path of misguided right and wrong. “You! You need help! I think I’ll fix you up right now with drugs and wealth.”
Chorus
My dear, my dear, oh dear, dear, dear, dear, dear.
I am my light.
I am my head.
I will convince myself over and over again.
Chorus
My dear, my dear, let me be the one to whisper now, my dear.

Too Much
04:20

It’s an endless dripping. The scars remain all my garments are stained, and there you wait, for me to take notice. I try to wipe it all away. The blood still stays it continues to cascade, from my cut.
And I want you to realize that I have had enough.
You ask too much of me and I, I want it all too and then
our pattern repeats; unforgiving, relentless.
You ask too much of me and I, I want it all too; unforgiving, relentless, wanting.
Pounding joints, hard, and cold, and solid. I think I might be too old for this.
My memory serves to remind me that I can accomplish all this crap, that I’ve signed up for at your request, at your request.
And I want you to realize that I have had enough.
Chorus
And I’m still bleeding. It no longer hurts. I’m still running alongside you.
As I look up from my cluttered designs, I see you still waiting for me after all this time.
Chorus (2x)

Good Luck
03:52

When charm turns sleazy, when cute turns cheesy, I’m watching you and now I know.
You pretend to be fancy, condescension makes me antsy. That’s when, I decide to go.
Lost in a sound, close my eyes and spin around to hear you telling me that no one else will listen. This all came from my heart, it’s not about who else is listening. You write as though somebody told you so.
I say good luck. Good luck my friend, my frenemy, my distant soulmate. Good luck, my once upon a time, my wounded soldier, good luck.
Who would ever buy that? I think that you’re, you’re making a mistake. You’re too late. The world has enough of this already. Remember, you are you and not her. I promise to remind you when you fall.
Chorus
Lost in a sound, close my eyes and spin around to hear you telling me that no one else will listen. This all came from my heart, it’s not about who else is listening.
I say good luck. Good luck my friend, my frenemy, my distant soulmate. Good luck, my once upon a time, my wounded soldier, good luck.
Good luck! I’ll try to keep my phrases to those you understand. Good luck, I say with a sarcastic glare. Good luck, good luck, good luck, good luck.

I Will Carry You
03:52
|
|||
In days of hurry I work on what is distracting, not necessary. The sweetness begins to weep, the beads change the aesthetic for me, she tastes the same you see.
In a green field she looks lost, she feels out of control in her loss. Control seems so easy in daydreams. She shifts involuntarily under the lens’ scrutiny.
Come to me, come with me, always, you are home.
Everyday I will carry you.
Come to me, come with me, always, you are home.
Everyday I will carry you.
Make my heart your favorite resting place.
Grass takes up valuable space. Complicated beauty replaces ordinary. My fingers unravel the earth and I am home.
The emptiness has been filled with color. Senses drink in the sunny kiss. The manic scene I’ve created distracts me from my lack of clarity.
Chorus
Stay with me, always. You are home.
A trench encircles the gate they wonder if I’m building a moat. No, my children, I’m creating an invitation.
Chorus
I will carry you.

Remind Me Again
04:02
|

I’m singing your name. Do you hear it, in the lyric?
I’m screaming for you. It comes out as a song.
That day when you looked my way. I didn’t feel it. Should i have felt it? But, now I feel as though you’ve been here all along.
Oh, how I’ve missed you.
Now that I’m reminded of you.
Even though you’ve never been here, I see your face everywhere.
And maybe just maybe you know that I am here too.
Remind me again why I am here without you.
Do you know what I mean? Should I speak a little clearer, draw a picture, bring it nearer? Did you miss the point, my flourishes muddied the message?
Disguising myself with words, did i miss your call? I didn’t hear you call.
I know I’ve been saying too much yet nothing at all.
Chorus
There’s a smile on my face as my melody floats and you care. Remind me to find me.
Remind me that I’ve always been here.
Chorus
Remind me again, please, I hope that you do.
