Passing trains all through the day to where I lay, Blue and Gray Passers by can't fight the tide watch colored skies fade into night with you And I never thought I'd be feeling like this Warm thoughts, sweet talk Wide awake, hear the fall of rain bring spring days on window panes Taking steps just honest leaping through and over seas, what's underneath? It's you, and I never thought I'd be feeling like this Never ready for words like honey I know wrong from right, don't hurry And with a heavy sight I get blurry And when the dark turns light I get worried When the dark turns light I get worried

Dreamy 03:02
Sinking lower, lost in wonder watch the ground from above Feeling lighter, four years younger weightless aim toward the sky Finding solace is a lost cause in all we hear Despondent walking through the dark halls, the thoughts we fear Waiting patient as we're sleeping Take good care Falling deeper, slipping feet on the ground Look behind the open eyes but seek a prize from above Sentence fragments hard to follow in my ear Racing thoughts are all impartial and insincere Slipping slowly through the hourglass The time is near, be patient Age old fragrance, often waking alive Tunnel vision, disposition nothing's missing anymore

Afloat 02:14
A sea of covers bundled up Just fourteen spaces, not enough We close our eyes for stars In time they will be ours Faster, yet slow Swaying to and fro, don't be afraid After the show Staying on the road beneath the waves you'll see, we'll stay afloat So make me out from afar Give heaven my regards Faster, yet slow Swaying to and fro, don't be afraid After the show Staying on the road beneath the waves you'll see, we'll stay afloat we'll stay afloat we'll stay afloat
4.
Trip 03:28
The fire's running to your head Color drains out from the bed Fear it all what feels like fall in June Wasted calls, you lost it all too soon Going further down the road Wearing frames all painted rose Moving fast a spell is cast by you Looking back when two months pass by you Watch from the window Standing in the cold Watch from the window Standing in the cold Arm in arm you are the sun Hand in hand what's done is done Clashing faiths a darker fate consumes Holding weight, we move through days and truths Watch from the window Standing in the cold Watch from the window Standing in the cold

Demure 04:04
Along the walkabout, sympathies aren't present when you fear you need them most Sing along and shout, nothing will distract you when you're stationed at your post Guardians will blend, and will not reprimand our feeble wrists until they break In labeled increments, doses, though unpleasant gather 'round and swarm the host So chain yourself, entangled, alone, demure One: can live amongst the wolves far away from home Two: snaps like a twig when threatened in a pinch So chain yourself, entangled, alone Don't blame yourself, entangled, alone, demure Consequence abound, facilitating injury it's chalked along the way Anniverseries come and go enlightened by the rush to change your pace One: can live amongst the wolves far away from home Two: snaps like a twig when threatened in a pinch So chain yourself, entangled, alone Don't blame yourself, entangled, alone So chain yourself, entangled, alone, demure
6.
Reckless 01:25
Dream outloud, scream on clouds Shake it instead, don't make your bed Pray for rain, keeps me sane Shake it instead, don't lose your head
7.
This wooden circle's rearranged/Strange as it seems, stuck in between Mahogany sounds so insane/What's underneath starts at your feet So wrap your arms around my waist/What else is left, Where is the rest Don't hesitate, don't contemplate/All has been said, my head on your chest So hold the phone, we're coming home Heavy eyes will sleep tonight Hold the phone, we're not alone These speckled colors save the day/We'll make it right, all through the night Hey forest greet, show me the way/Which way will lead, longing to see Create a path and follow it down/What else is left, Where is the rest Let's make a sound, don't mess around/All has been said, my head on your chest So hold the phone, we're coming home Heavy eyes will sleep tonight Hold the phone, we're not Alone anymore, hold the phone, say no more Not alone anymore, hold the phone, say no more

Whale Song 03:00
Oh my god, am I too young to fight? I think about it all the time Whenever that whale's on my mind I think about it once or twice Little baby inside Oh my god, we didn't do it right There was a sacrifice Pools of intestines and flies Moves away in the tide I'm on the other side There goes that whale again, baby was dead in the sand Am I too young to fight? I think about it all the time
