1.
Warm 02:32
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
2.
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
3.
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
4.
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
5.
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
6.
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
7.
Spill 00:31
8.
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
9.
Marble 02:13
10.
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
11.
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
