Warm

short drive home, metered by the load
take it slow, window’s open, cold
don’t think hard. buckled by the dark.
feel a way I don’t appreciate
under the rain, nice and warm
out of the way. good and worn…
calling the day, I’m always torn

Bound (To)
03:05
|
|||
All tied up in the rush now
A tired canned applause
Wired up now and soldered
I’ve called my truth, call it what you want
I know it isn’t finished
Barely just got a start
A taste to stay inspired
What it is, and what it’s bound to be at all
awkward’s a good reminder
no expectations held
I know that it is toxic
conversational knell
I’m kneeling where I stood now
I’m holding my applause
always a good reminder of
what it is, what it’s bound to be

Dog
02:07
|
|||
in a fog, in a dream
really doesn’t seem different to me
out of oughts, and the need
really I can do anything
I’m a dog on a beach
running over, everyone’s to meet
feel the fall
feel it free

Away
01:09
|
|||
oh the want,
take it away
can’t mistake how I
hold a lot
oh, I don’t know
I should take it off

the Knot
02:40
|
|||
tryna tread real light
tender thru the night
powerful is kind
long shot, worth a try
walked along the track
round the block and back
won’t again too soon
feel it showing thru
and what after that?
and who’s up to bat?
go place yr bet,
hope it won’t set you back
extend my hand
like you’d understand
shoo it away,
staying stuck in a jam
if it’s what you want,
then go have your fun,
do it your way,
and complain when it’s gone
tongue-tie the knot
don’t yet know yer caught
but I see what’s good,
and the truth is far off

Pasture
02:54
|
|||
it couldn’t have helped
how it could’ve felt
was weighing over, all the while
I’m fuckin it up
not knowing my stuff
winging hard enough to lift off
know it doesn’t help
I can’t help myself
it’s a certain hell
take it out to pasture
maybe it’s a gift
climb into the pit
who’m I speaking with?
look into it’s face
take a little taste
exist in my space

Step
01:18
|
|||
shuffled all the cards, but seems the deck is stacked against
overwhelming odds continue on altho I’m spent
almost gotten well, but maybe now just isn’t yet
leaning with the curve, trying to learn the way to care
lesson’s deep in there
holding off a yell, try to preserve whatever’s left
take another step
snow began to fall, a welcome break beneath it all
comfort of a thaw

Mend
02:16
|
|||
and enough of a thread
to sneak though past the tear
little pull, feel it slip
take it out, tuck it in
on the trail, sloping low
where’s the peak? is it known?
every good time meets its end
if it rips, better mend
|

Team Up
02:49
|
|||
team up, open the door
hope that it’s for
see, now - open and close
walking the rope
how far to go?
free, dumb, this should be fun
owed to no one
said it to some
roaming
pastures to graze
locked up for days,
wanting it that way
know how.
nothing’s for sure
get there before it gets to the core
I’ll get to the core
