The Current 06:38
You don’t need it To feel ok Everything He does Gets in the way Look back on your life Switching up roles Trigger an earthquake Plug in the holes Feel the marrow of now Eat the shoe off the clown To be free of yesterday Shake the yoke off everything I don’t wanna be stuck in the current Stuck in the stream of the worry Everything can be so empty Or it all could be a sign A sign Whenever I show up Tottered in time Feeling the grown up Waver in wine Feel the marrow of now Eat the shoe off the clown To be free of yesterday Take the yoke off everything I don’t want wanna be stuck in the current Stuck in the stream of the worry Everything can be so empty Or it all could be a sign A sign

World Now 04:23
gimme gimme rock salt I wanna lick lick it off like a cow cowing in the yard a mouse brewing in the barn if you need some I’ve got some fun fun in my backyard banging out some holes they’re digging my bones it’s our world now gimme gimme some some it’s our world now I love it when you winter in the coat in the hither the moths hiding out inside waiting till summer arrives Batten down the hatches halls holding up the inside walls swimming through the big fall down maybe drowning maybe alive it’s our world now gimme gimme some some it’s our world now A summer of love The autumn bell tolls Wasting away in the shadows Ice and snow cover hay bale rolls Hiding away in the meadows it’s our world now gimme gimme some some it’s our world now

Unmoored 03:59
Tethered to that bursting star Defined by the things you are A spider you’re floored you’re moored Your web is self contained Black hole sucking you in Climbing, falling again A rope holds your waist real tight Self constructed heights Move to a house on the hill Snowed in sitting still Hope for a break in the storm No one’s left alone Control you thought you had Thin air just like you have You want some time to spend Outside your head This heart This heart This ground This ground This heart Is what you have Staring at an empty floor Find you another store Move upstate to find What you’re looking for Walk in a straight line Hope it buys you time To figure out yourself Why you’re this way This heart This heart This ground This ground This heart Is what you have

Alive 03:58
Standing and staring at home From a distance it looks like A whole filling a hole Or whatever It sounds like You seen from afar You're here, you're alive Floating and gliding above From a distance it looks like The wind sweeping the wind It’s wrapping The whole of you Sitting in the breeze You’re here, you’re alive
5.
The Loss 03:40
Send me alone to the golden zone No stone unturned a lonely bone If only you knew How I knew about you The mail in the sky arrives by train and the car and the man who walks in vain for weeks to find you Help me to land on solid ground no sight no smell the loss the loss standing alone healing alone in this studio world the loss the loss the loss temperamental instrumental in the fall the blame we drive down is a one way street the feet we feel under are gathering steam to take us away Help me to land on solid ground no sight no smell the loss the loss standing alone healing alone in this studio world the loss the loss the loss

MitM 04:35
I'm a man in the middle tightrope on the line hovering between two states never knowing what's mine You're performing your feelings the crowd is singing in time to affirm the condition of always needing a sign Face time for you is fleeting mediated and dry Your own blood is confusing from your throne in the sky I'm a man in the middle wolfpack bleeding heart dry You'll say I'm too hard or soft it's nothing I can't hide

Undertow 06:12
The walk we took in the way out woods,  you were talking about Some bullshit you saw some things you read I don’t remember the rest A mist appeared  The shapes of trees  Some outlines you couldn’t see A mountain rose in the distance you were staring at your feet Juggle of balls The circus called They said they’ve got your name A crowd surrounds And wonders aloud If you've still got your game Caught in the undertow Don’t let it weigh you down  Like a river flow  And the whooshing underground  The people in town In their dressing gowns stood there, calling your name In your mirrored ears You can hear them still They left before you came Your hair was thin You stood alone Waiting for them to come back When no one did You weren't surprised at the way they turned their backs Caught in the undertow Don’t let it weigh you down  Like a cannonball With a big distracting sound  Caught in the undertow Don’t let it weigh you down  Like a river flow  And the whooshing underground

The Rough 03:48
Someone's always stepping on my toes We all know there's nowhere to go Fighting for time and space in this place Is futile is fucking in vain Snowing or raining or sun Who knows what today will become Metaphors and analogs will fail To describe when time and place set sail Stand in place and you will be free The wisdom of the century Ignore the hail and bullets and the rough Enduring all this laboring stuff The markets and crowds have lost The wisdom they had and trust Freeways, land and sky, The peaking of your high Is this the time we finally say goodbye To the piece of the piece of the pie There could be more and more Of what we have in store
