Alone
04:01
|
|||
Alone I'm a phone with not contacts
Alone I'm a book with no words
Alone I'm just someone who can't remember why they're here
Alone on Earth, but never insincere
Alone what I own doesn't matter
Alone no one else can judge my style
Alone I'm just a person drifting ever through confusion
Alone on Earth, just living here in seclusion
Can you tell a story where every word is an adjective
Can you explain the length of a second if time is standing still
Can you cast a shadow if there's nothing producing a light
Can you have a purpose if you're the only person in your life
I'm a stone with no substance
Alone I'm a knight with no charge
Alone I'm just an alpha with no members of his pack
Alone on Earth, there's just one zodiac
Alone I'm a cone with no traffic
Alone I'm a kiss with no touch
Alone I'm just a speaker with no other words to hear
Alone on Earth, on every day each year
Can you tell a story where every word is an adjective
Can you explain the length of a second if time is standing still
Can you cast a shadow if there's nothing producing a light
Can you have a purpose if you're the only person in your life
Can you explain what it means to be alive if you're alone
Can you explain who you are, who you are
If you're the only one you've ever known
Alone serotonin is flaky
Alone I'm a console with no games
Alone I can't move forward with no reference points for direction
Alone on Earth, with all this wasted affection
Can you tell a story where everyone word is an adjective
Can you explain the length of a second if time is standing still
Can you cast a shadow if there's nothing producing a light
Can you have a purpose if you're the only person in your life

Trees Die
06:01
|
|||
It's my first winter without you in years
I know I never asked for these tears
You know I gave you my heart and I wanted to start
Something bigger than us
Oh, something bigger than us
Trees die, and I can't feel anything
We used to dance in the dark of the winter and sing
And I packed my bags
All of these trinkets and memories ready to go
Wherever you'd go
Through the blistering snow
By our love's warming glow
(Hmm)
Halloween came and I was there with my friends
The healing began but this confusion never ends
Remember when you loved me and we wanted to be
Something bigger than us
Oh, something bigger than us
Trees die, and I can't feel anything
We used to dance in the dark of the winter and sing
And I packed my bags
All of these trinkets and memories ready to go
Wherever you'd go
Through the blistering snow
By our love's warming glow
Come on down to the tree
(Hmm)
I know I won't feel this forever
But I wish you could see us together the way you used to
This might end up better
It better, it better
If this is forever
I know that I'm getting much stronger
As the shadows are growing much longer and I am hoping
This might end up better
It better, it better
Trees die, and I can't feel anything
We used to dance in the dark of the winter and sing
And I packed my bags
All of these trinkets and memories ready to go
Wherever you'd go
Through the blistering snow
By our love's warming glow
I know I won't feel this forever
But I wish you could see us together the way you used to
This might end up better
It better, it better
If this is forever
I know that I'm getting much stronger
As the shadows are growing much longer and I am hoping
This might end up better
It better, it better

Farewell
03:36
|
|||
I hoped it was lying when my heart cried "this is the end"
When I see you breathing, I don't wanna just be your friend
But I'm in an altered state if you could just see into me
I don't have the answers but you know I'll be there down by the tree
The path ahead is hard to find
And I don't know where I'm going, but I'm leaving this behind
And maybe someday you'll hear the music, maybe it's not to late to rewind
But I've got these knuckles glazed in scars, I've even got them on my mind
And you're the one who crushed my spirit, even though you used to be so kind
And you are not my heart, even if we once were intertwined
So now I'll say to you
Farewell
It was nice to know you
Farewell
So easy to love you
It's hell
Trying to forget you
Farewell, farewell
The boy you fell in love with is alive inside me still
And part of the bastard who you left is in me too I hate to say
But someone that you’ve never met is standing in my shoes
Alone and unafraid, someone better, something new
Farewell
It was nice to know you
Farewell
So easy to love you
It's hell
Trying to forget you
And you know I never will, but still
Farewell
Why are you always coming back, but never outside my head
Why do you visit in my dreams, but never in my bed
Why are you always coming back, but never outside my head
Why do you visit in my dreams, but never in my bed

Shut Up Brain
04:30
|

Shut up brain
How can you stop this train
This train of thought, because it's not on rails
And you're driving yourself insane
Realize
That if you'd only open your eyes
You'd find your place, and stop just chasing dreams
And these imaginary highs
Imaginary fears
These things you're thinking of
Imaginary nightmares waking you up
And out of love
Imagining that thing
Is causing you this pain
These thoughts aren't adding up
So just shut up brain
Shut up brain
Your needy thoughts are all in vain
This train of thought is clearly not productive
And there's nothing for you to gain
Realize
That if your body shakes or cries
It's not the end, it's still your friend you know
And it's okay to recognize
Imaginary fears
These things you're thinking of
Imaginary nightmares waking you up
And out of love
Imagining that thing
Is causing you this pain
These thoughts aren't adding up
So just shut up brain
I wish it was easy, but it's not
I wish it was simple, clear and plain
I wish I was happy with what I've got
I wish you would, I wish you would
Just shut up brain
No no no no no
Shut up brain
Ooh
No no no no no
Just shut up
Shut up brain
How can you stop this train
This train of thought, because it's not on rails
And you're driving yourself insane
Realize
That if you'd only open your eyes
You'd find your place, and stop just chasing dreams
And these imaginary highs
Imaginary fears
These things you're thinking of
Imaginary nightmares waking you up
And out of love
Imagining that thing
Is causing you this pain
These thoughts aren't adding up
So just shut up brain
I wish it was easy, but it's not
I wish it was simple, clear and plain
I wish I was happy with what I've got
I wish you would, I wish you would
Just shut up brain
No no no no no
Shut up brain
Ooh
No no no no no
Just shut up brain
Ooh
No no no no no
Just shut up

Lone Wolf
04:15
|
|||
It sounds so picturesque
A wolf that runs alone
But running with the pack
Is all it's ever known
This isn't in its blood
This shouldn't be its place
But this is where it is
A fate that it must face
The sound of the thundering sky
As it's wondering why
It must do this alone
It can't comprehend this
Lone wolf
Lone wolf
It's howling in the night
A voice that cuts the air
It waits for harmony
But it isn't there
Slowly it drags its paws
Printing in the mud
A wolf of loyal heart
A wolf with noble blood
The sound of the thundering sky
As it's wondering why
It must do this alone
It's not meant to be this
Lone wolf
Lone wolf
Lone wolf
Lone wolf
Lone wolf
It raises up its head
Lifting to the sky
A glimmer in the stars
Reflected in its eye
It howls to itself
As if to say a prayer
It knows that it's alone
But there are wolves out there
The sound of the thundering sky
As it's wondering why
It must do this alone
It's ready to be this
Lone wolf
Lone wolf
Lone wolf
The sound of the thundering sky
As it's wondering why
It must do this alone
Lone wolf
It can't comprehend this
It's not meant to be this
Lone wolf
The sound of the thundering sky
As it's wondering why
It must do this alone
It's ready to be this
It's ready to be this
Lone wolf
It's ready to be this
Lone wolf

Every Time It Rains
03:42
|
|||
Wash away the pains
Every time it rains
We may feel alone together
But we won't feel this way forever
I see your friendly face
A different time and place
Memories of distant dreamings
Friendly laughs and smiles and greetings
The path ahead is hard to find
The mud has gathered over time
But whether stars or streetlights shine
The way will clear, this day is mine every time it rains
Distant rolling clouds
I wander through the crowds
Often times I've stopped to wonder
Through the sounds of rain and thunder
I've waited for the sign
A hand to hold in mine
We can walk this road together
I'll be here for you forever
The path ahead is hard to find
The mud has gathered over time
But whether stars or streetlights shine
The way is clear, this day is mine every time it rains
The way is clear, this day is mine every time it rains
The way is clear, this day is mine every time it rains
If only time would flow upstream
If only I could go beyond this dream
If only you could know you're more than you seem
If only I could show you what I mean
The path ahead is hard to find
If only time would flow upstream
The mud has gathered over time
If only I could go beyond this dream
But whether stars or streetlights shine
If only you could know you're more than you seem
The way is clear, this day is mine every time it rains
If only I could show you what I mean
The way is clear, this day is mine every time it rains
If only I could show you what I mean
The way is clear, this day is mine every time it rains
If only I could show you what I mean

I Am The Wolf
03:49
|
|||
I am the wolf who dreams without sleep
I am the wolf with a promise to keep
I am the wolf who yearns to grow wings
I am the wolf who wildly sings
I have a wisdom and hope like a child
I am a son of the wind and the wild
I am a seeker with so much to learn
I am a lover with passion to burn
I am the freedom, I am the cage
I am the writer, I am the page
I am the howl, I am the moon
I am the singer, I am the tune
I am a wolf who loves for all time
I am a novice with mountains to climb
I carry the weight of the world on my back
I am a leader who runs with the pack
I am the ranger who wanders alone
I have a courage that burns to the bone
I am my servant and I am my king
And no earthly chains can tame this wolfling
I am the freedom, I am the cage
I am the writer, I am the page
I am the howl, I am the moon
I am the singer, I am the tune
I am the darkness that chokes out my light
I am the day that follows my night
Breathing the warmth of the earth and the sky aligned
Caught in the glow of the twilight
I am the wolf who dreams without sleep
I am the wolf with a promise to keep
I am the wolf who yearns to grow wings
I am the wolf who wildly sings
I am the wolf
I am the wolf who wildly sings

Already There
01:18
|

Imagine yourself as a spec on the shell of a planet
Imagine your heart as a vessel inside you that beats with the light of a star
Imagine for a moment that you could drift through the sky like a sparrow in flight
Imagine the world from the eyes of a lion made of the same stardust as you are
Imagine a place where you can be whatever you are, and you're already there
Imagine a place where you can be whatever you are, and you're already there
And you're already there
And you're already there
Already there
And you're already there

Wander Again
03:54
|
|||
I dunno, sometimes you just gotta say what comes to the top of your head
I guess that's the whole point in wandering
You don't know where you're gonna end up
I think there's an element of trusting that here is where we actually belong
The truth is, if I stopped to question myself every time I had an idea, I'd never get anything done
And the thing is you gotta believe in yourself, because you don't know if anyone else will
I don't even have a script right now, I'm just saying things that come to my head
But I am letting myself try again. If I don't like a take, I just take another one
The truth is, if I stopped to question myself every time I had an idea, I'd never get anything done
I think we wander when we forget that here is where we actually belong
I dunno, sometimes you just gotta say what comes to the top of your head
It doesn't always make much sense
I guess that's the whole point in wandering
You don't know where you're gonna end up
But you know you have to move

Lycidas
01:48
|
|||
You can call me Lycidas
Two tails, and a Christmas list
Of virtues on a hypothetic wishlist
I’m striving to be this
Cause I’m just about done with it
And however life goes, yeah, I’ll have fun with it
Grab a blue rose in my jaws like this
Steel sword and a clenched fist
A brave wolf persona is what this is
Anxiety’s antithesis
A lupine battling wickedness
A champion of veriditas
The healing powers
From the mountains and the flowers
The sunshine and the showers
And the trees so old they tower
Every second, every hour
Feeling stronger, getting louder
Felt ashamed but now I’m prouder
Pounding dungeons down to powder
I will walk alone on a path that’s sacred
All guilt atone and dissolve my hatred
And this life I’m given, gonna bet I won’t waste it
Hope so vibrant that you can taste it
Got a dream in my head, and my head on my body
My body on the Earth and this fantasy’s got me
Claws digging in the dirt on the mountain side
Climbing on all fours and I’m filled with pride
Got a human shell but a wolf inside
And eyes that see stories from both of our sides
I’ve got fears of disaster all ordered and listed
But nothing is perfect so I may as well risk it
Let me fall to the ground so I got somewhere to rise to
The sun wouldn’t look so bright in the skies
If it never sunk down below the horizon
Let moonlight play the sun’s reprise
And how can I withstand external lightning and thunder
When the battle inside me is just dragging me under
Gotta love what I am, or forgive it at least
Gotta look within and find peace
And who am I, why do I identify
As an ever-changing canis lupus personae
If you ask what I am, je suis un loup
Quel animal es tu
It’s okay to evolve like the changing seasons
It’s okay to break a promise to your inner demons
It’s okay to be scared and not know what to do
It’s okay to be different, it’s okay to be you
And me might be strange but I’m not gonna fake it
Some part of me was sleeping there but I’m gonna wake it
Got my heart back so I know I won’t break it
Howl to the mountains, I know I can take it

Mountains
04:33
|
|||
Heaven makes the earth feel just like hell
But trekking through the underworld
Is better than melting away
Let these tears be a tool, let these fears be a fuel
Let the future be cruel, but let the present rule
Let the stars group in three, let the gods hear my plea
Let my spirit be free, let my love be
I've been climbing mountains one step at a time
No avalanche will stop me, I'm gonna be alright
I've been moving mountains one stone at a time
Nothing can stop me, I'm not giving up the fight
Whoa
Hiding makes your worth appear to fade
But feeling so misunderstood
Is better than numbing the pain
Let these tears be a tool, let these fears be a fuel
Let the past be cruel, but let the present rule
Let your heart speak what's right, let it feel this insight
Let it heal from the fight, let it be light
I've been climbing mountains one step at a time
No avalanche will stop me, I'm gonna be alright
I've been moving mountains one stone at a time
Nothing can stop me, I'm not giving up the fight
Whoa
I will fail, I will try
I will bleed, I will cry
But I will love until I die
And I don't need to know exactly why
I've been climbing mountains one step at a time
No avalanche will stop me, I'm gonna be alright
I've been moving mountains one stone at a time
Nothing can stop me, I'm not giving up
I've been climbing mountains one step at a time
No avalanche will stop me, I'm gonna be alright
I've been moving mountains one stone at a time
Nothing can stop me, I'm not giving up the fight

Nobody's Boyfriend
04:55
|
|||
I'm a husband to no one though I have many rings
Sometimes I think I found someone, but all that love it stings
And I'm nobody's boyfriend, I guess I'm nobody's crush
I've got a long life ahead now, so why all the rush
You know that I like you, I guess you must do
But circumstances mean that I'd better keep those thoughts from view
I always thought that I'd be hers, but I guess that I'm my own
And I guess I have some options but for now I'm just alone
Love always seemed to me so precious, not something you'd get rid of
I'm your friend, but I'm a lover with nobody to love
I'm a partner to no one, though I'd love to be a pair
And guarded deep inside me now I've got this love to share
But I'm nobody's boyfriend, I guess I'm nobody's choice
Should I listen to the silence or to this little inner voice
You know that I like her, I guess she must too
But circumstances mean that I'd better keep those thoughts from view
I sometimes thought I could be yours, well I guess that isn't true
But if you wanted we could try it, I just don't want to hurt you
Love always seemed to me so sacred, the center of my hurricane
I'm her friend, but do I love her, or am I just insane
Oh, tell me how it feels
To find true love and keep it
Tell me what it's like
To know you're worthy of
Honesty and grace
Serenity and patience
I need someone to match my
Everlasting love
My everlasting love
I have so much love to give away
What do I do with this
With all my love
I'm nobody's boyfriend, I guess I'm nobody's dream
And I'm full of emotion, and I can be a bit extreme
I can get pretty anxious and I've been feeling quite scared
But maybe some day you'll love me when my heart is repaired
And maybe then I'll be happy when my heart is repaired
And I'll break up with nobody when my heart is repaired

Not Just Me
03:04
|
|||
Did I hear that right
Is that what you said
Because it feels like I'm dreaming
And I've imagined this in my head before
I can't help this shaking
From excitement or fear, I really can't tell
But you say there's something between us
And I think I feel it as well
And I can't believe it's not just me
Did I dream that night
Is that what I said
Because I think I might be beaming
And I have told you this in my head before
I can't help this shaking
Why does it make me laugh, I really can't tell
But I know there's something so special
And I think you feel it as well
And I can't believe it's not just me
I've found a home in your eyes for oh so long
I cannot help but surprise myself with this song
I never thought I'd say
To you that I feel this way
But I have wanted to
To have this me and you thing be true
Did I hear that right
Is that what you said
Because I kind of feel like screaming
And I've got all these thoughts in my head, what for
I can't help this shaking
Why do I always cry, I really can't tell
But I know for you it's a challenge
And you know this hurts me as well
And I can't believe it's not just me
I just can't believe it's not just me
I've found a home in your eyes for oh so long
I cannot help but surprise myself with this song
I never thought you'd say
To me that you feel this way
But I have wanted you
To hear you say that you feel it too
Did I hear that right
Is that what you said
Because it feels like I'm dreaming
But at least in this dream it's not just me

Dear Best Friend
02:35
|
|||
Staying up way too late
And I'm tired but this show is great
The night is misty but it feels so clear
I'd stay up later if I get to stay here
Laughing way too hard at something that made no sense
God I'm so glad we're friends
And I can say that in the present tense
And when the sun is up
And when our time is up
I'll be gently waking and blinking
And of my best friend I'll be thinking
When I'm done sleeping in
I'll be believing in
A few people making paper flowers all day
Staying up way past two
And I'm wondering what we're gonna do
I wish that I could help you understand
You hold my heart, I wanna hold your hand
Crying way too hard at something I had to say
God I hope we're okay
And that we'll be much better after today
And when the sun is up
And when our time is up
I'll be gently waking and blinking
And of who I love I'll be thinking
When I'm done sleeping in
I'll be believing in
A few people making paper flowers all day
Two wolves fighting with each other all day
Two spirits singing songs together all day

I Am Beside You
04:11
|

I'm leaving this behind
I'm leaving this to you
I'm letting this unwind
It's all that I can do
I wish that you could see
How much this means to me
And all the fun that we have had
I'm leaving this behind
It's been a wild ride
I'll let you all unwind
I'll let you all decide
You said it's overdue
But every day is new
And all this love is true
You may see me on the other side of the border
But you're just looking at me through the frame of a mirror
I am beside you
If this is what you want
If you've made up your mind
If this is what you want
I'm leaving this behind
But we could still proceed
And I would take your lead
Just tell me what you need
At the end of the day everything that we love is here
Maybe you're looking at me through the reflection of a clock
Then look at the time
Today isn't yesterday
Today isn't yesterday
Today is just today
Today is a new day
And every day
Is a new day
And that means it's a new us
If this is what you want
If you've made up your mind
If this is what you want
I'm leaving this behind
But we could still proceed
And you could take my lead
I'll tell you what I need
Just tell me what you need
At the end of the day everything that we love is here
But you're just looking at me through the frame of a mirror
I am beside you
If this is what you want

Blue Rose
02:32

Blue rose, your petals dancing sway
I will find you tomorrow if I miss you today
The only flower that can never be
And the one with its image enrapturing me
Sky blue rich and full
Unattainable
Yet still I wander day and night
I will find you tomorrow, I know you're almost in sight
Blue rose, your budding may never start
You may never touch soil, but you've captured my heart
Sky blue vision willed
Perfect love fulfilled
The only flower that can never be
And the one with its image enrapturing me
Blue rose, your petals dancing sway
I will find you tomorrow if I miss you today
I will find you tomorrow if I miss you today

Sunflower People
05:47
|

Woo! Oh yeah
Alright
Yeah, yeah
Have I known you for a while now
Or is that just how it seems
You'll laugh with me anyhow
And we'll talk about our dreams
Some things are painful spoken
Some words are just to rough
You say that you feel broken
I say I'm not enough
Despite all the rain, I know I'll get dry
I've felt all this pain, but there's a reason why
And the rain smells so good when I look to the sky
With you by my side
You are my sunflower people, hey
You are my sun when the clouds are grey
And I know it's hard to find anybody like you who paints the sky so blue
I'm not afraid to speak my mind when I'm in your company I know I'm free to be me
And I'm lucky just to know you, I don't want our time to end
You are my sunflower people, and I'm glad to be your friend
And sometimes I'll be crying
And the sun will feel so cold
That time I felt like dying
But you gave your hand to hold
I'll maybe see you later
Down this path that looks so rough
I won't need this translator
Because we understand enough
Despite all the rain, I know I'll get dry
I've felt all this pain, but there's a reason why
And the rain smells so good when I look to the sky
With you by my side
You are my sunflower people, hey
You are my sun when the clouds are grey
And I know it's hard to find anybody like you who paints the sky so blue
I'm not afraid to speak my mind when I'm in your company I know I'm free to be me
And I'm lucky just to know you, I don't want our time to end
You are my sunflower people, and I'm glad to be your friend
I'm glad to be your friend
We can rest and retire
Or we each can have a try
We can ignite this fire
Or we can watch the clouds go by
We'll find the words unspoken
When the battle's getting tough
But you'll know that you're not broken
And I'll know that I'm enough
Despite all the rain, I know you'll get by
You've felt all this pain, but there's a reason why
And the clouds look so good in the shine of your eye
I'll be by your side
I'll be your sunflower person, hey
I'll be your sun when your clouds are grey
And I know it's hard to find anybody like you, so I'll do what you do
Don't be afraid to speak your mind when you're in my company, you know you're free to just be
And I'm happy just to know you, and on me you can depend
You are my sunflower people, and I'm glad to be your friend
Woo! I'm glad to be your friend
And you can call, you can call on your friend
And I'll call on you too
My sunflower people

Animals
09:11
|
|||
We're all just animals
Pretending that we're somehow greater
Forgetting that we're all creators
Even birds and beavers
We're all just animals
And I don't mean that as a bad thing
Sure we have no tails or batwings
And we call ourselves refined
But look, listen, smell, taste, and feel
You'll see the raindrops glisten
You may find these distinctions aren't so real
Some people say that cows can cry
I've done my fair share I won't lie
And apes and rats know how to laugh, they say
And they're all predators and prey
We've all been predators or prey
We're all just animals
Wondering how each other thinks
A human being, or a lynx
With mysteries in their mind
We're all just animals
And I don't mean that we're the same
But no one's ever really tame
And we are all alive
So come and look, listen, smell, taste, and feel
You'll see the starlight glisten
You may find yourself surprised by what's revealed
Some people say that we're all doomed
They'd given up I just assumed
I know we've all got lots to learn
But even if we're gone, the earth will turn
Just so long as we don't let it burn
We're all just animals
And we all need to breathe and eat
Sometimes we fight and lie and cheat
Just trying to survive
We're all just animals
It's easy just to say they're wrong
Be dissonant in Terra's song
And hate how we're unlike
But look, listen, smell, taste, and feel
You'll see our teardrops glisten
You may find our alikeness so surreal
And the wolves will howl together
And the birds each grow their own feathers
And we all can feel the weather
And we're not the same, and so who can blame you
For finding this so hard
And the salmon swim the river
In the cold our dogs will shiver
And we're all someone's caregiver
We were born one day, and all I can say
Is to listen to your heart
We're all just animals
Like wolves, we love the pack we've known
And sometimes we must go alone
Until another time
We're all just animals
And I don't mean that as a bad thing
We make mistakes and laugh and sing
And wonder at the world
We're all just animals

Into The Night

A wolf runs wild in the wind
He breathes life and sunshine
Ever following, and ever guiding
He wanders far, alone
And for a moment he howls
And his howl echoes above the trees
And mountains, and sea
Looking onward, his heart leaps
Ever onward, into the sky
And through the rain and storm
His cries are heard and returned
In the harmony of love
Through the heart of courage
Which he shares willingly to all
And glancing back over the horizon
He sees the pack close behind
And follows his song into the night
