Commonplace

I have been filing away all of these days
I have been reaching this town in the waters I surround
While you’re headed for your safe space
You’re headed for Commonplace
I have been watching this grow, watching out from front row
I have been drowning in faith, drowning in your face
Cuz you’re headed for your safe space
You’re headed for Commonplace
Don’t you know that awake awaits you
When you awake I’ll await you
I have been combing cobwebs for piece of regret
Cuz I have seen promises gold open then close
Cuz you’re headed for your safe space
You’re headed for Commonplace
Awake awaits you
When you awake I’ll await you

In black & white
In stereo
Coat to ground
The girls around you now
In black & white
In stereo
Coat to ground
The girls around you
They don’t know
What they know
Or how it goes.
(So you)
Shake your head
At the police station
In the end you end up in frustration
Shake your head at
The police station
All your friends said you’d end up
In the basement
Don’t you base it
On what they know
And all your dreams and all your schemes
They’re coming on back to you
Play it back again
Turn it off and then
Dance around in the shadows of the crowd
Till you find
Your state of apprehend
It won’t be there when
You dance around in the apex
Of your mind
You can find
You will
Play it back again

High

In the night it all comes out
Out align and down your spine
Don’t get too far ahead
The strings attached they pull you back
The strings attached they pull you back
Didn’t you think that I was gonna come back out alive
Didn’t you think that I was gonna come back high
Tame the wave to behave
The atmosphere won’t let you steer
In the back on the road
You hope you get there unaware
You hope you get there, almost there
Didn’t you think that I was gonna come back out alive
Didn’t you think that I was gonna come back high
In the night it all comes out
Out align and down your spine
Don’t get too far ahead
The strings attached they pull you
They pull you back the strings attached
Didn’t you think that I was gonna come back out alive
Didn’t you think that I was gonna come back

I Do

One day I woke up on the other side of the line
Of the line
In my mind I knew I had to try what is right
What is right?
And there’s no more the one who’s reaching mine
When’s the time? Time to try. When’s the time?
Tell me
When’s the right time?
And if you wanna break it
Shuttle up earthquake it
If you wanna break it
I do
One day I woke up on the other side of the line
Of my mind
Yeah in my mind I knew I had to try
What is right when I find
That there’s no more the one who’s reaching mine
When’s the time? The right time. Time to try?
Tell me
When’s the right time?
And if you wanna break it
Shuttle up earthquake it
If you wanna take it
I do

Cut through
The Animal
Behavior
Oh savor
The blood she leaves you
Draw out
The Animal
Senses
You’re left with
When she leaves you
“Oh oh oh oh” when she calls you, she calls you
She says “oh oh oh oh” when she calls out for you
“Oh oh oh oh” when she calls out, she calls out
She says “Oh oh oh oh” and she calls out for you
Touch now
The Animal
Senses
Your defenses
How they leave you
“Oh oh oh oh” when she comes out, she comes out
She says “oh oh oh oh” when she comes out for you
“Oh oh oh oh” when she comes out, she comes out
She says “Oh oh no no no no” when she comes out for you
Oh oh oh yeah
“Oh oh oh oh” when she wants you, she wants you
She says “oh oh oh oh” when she wants for you

Beautiful
03:45

Hey you over there
The one with the foot in your mouth
You think you believe what your words are about
In an unwinding road
A blank destitute wall
I crawl across the screen
With the dust I scream
He’s so beautiful
I can’t let go
Flawless and beautiful
What a picturesque show
Hey you over there
The indefinable one
Who and what you are seen when under the gun
Time it marches on
Memories begin to fade
The only thing that seems
Detrimental to our dreams
He’s so beautiful
I can’t let go
Flawless and beautiful
What a picturesque show

All I Wanna Do

21 hours ago
When all I could do to say hello to you was a kiss on the face
The lines between the spaces they are in demand
It’s you who took my will then took command
But look at your hand
Look at what the fuck is on your hand
And it’s all I wanna do
A bamboo shade’s been made
An electronic dance of rain that heats up the same way an open wound decays
Is there beauty in this pain?
Oh beauty in the way you know my brain when I look at your face?
I look at your face at the bottom I see faith
And it’s all I wanna do
You’ve got to give it
You’ve got to give it
You’ve got to give it
Come on and take it all
You’ve got give it
Come on and give it
You’ve got to give it
Come on and take it all
Put down the phone and all its charms I wanna be back inside your arms
So big and strong
I like how big you are in the safety of your nave
It’s like a dog that you behave who’s running around
You’re looking around
So look inside this sound
And it’s all I wanna do

I'm Not Here
04:30
|

Buildings and the sky
Reflecting modern times
Just one small rope
Rail in the greedy goat
One thing I can say
Care take and above
Angels watching love
Stand down for the roofs
Neon out and in the truth
One thing I can say
I’m not here
You’re not here
Bodies ache
These restless days
Collide to sea cliffs
Accept the rain
One thing I can say:
I’m not here
You’re not here

Polar Shift
04:33
|

When I sleep something about you bleeds inside of me
The inlet from above the cliffs
The shape of a mouth that’s just been kissed
The shape of your mouth been kissed
Up where there’s oxygen
Up where there’s hope
The sound of leaving
White noise and gold
On your skin there’s a summer breeze just north of Avalon beach
Flying over water a raccoon rustles low
Dried leaves thrown to the stove
Dried leaves to the stove
Up where there’s oxygen
Up where there’s hope
Sunrise on your face
The distance alone
Running 17 miles a day
I stumble over stubble
People waking up to a shift
The coarse of this ship
Resting in a hollow tree
You will always know how I feel
2 degrees
I am awake
2 degrees
Opening the letter like it’s ticking though
I know it’s me that’ll explode
I know it’s me to explode
Up where there’s oxygen
Up where there’s hope
Something is growing
At the edge of the road

In Silence
03:47

Do you know what you’re messin with
Do you know just where to begin
To receive the dreams you’re asking for
In Silence
Too close for you to touch
Too far to ever give up
But the boxes hear
A warning clearly
Silent
Brought down to basic
Stripped to the id
Your self-control at the edge of the bridge
Brought down to basic
Stripped to the id
Your self-control at the edge of your skin
So hungry and afraid
Like a beast that has been caged
It is all consuming
In this room
So Silent
Careful now watch your words
As the dissolve out in the world
They are reeling out your tired mouth
Oh Quiet
Brought down to basic
Stripped to the id
So self consumed at the edge of your skin
Brought down to basic
Stripped to the id
Your self-control at the edge of the bridge
Oh Quiet.
