Honest

I’m crying on the phone
You’re trying to make it better
I didn’t wanna be alone
Until I wasn’t anymore
With my feet bare on the sand
I prayed on the winter solstice
If I’m flying let me land
And if I’ve landed help me notice
On the horizon
Everything’s light and
The boats hang like chandeliers
I just wanna taste it
You said nothing is wasted
But there goes another year
If I were just honest
I might get what I wanted for once
If I were just brave enough to feel it
I might know all I needed was love
And now nothing’s as it was
But it doesn't feel that different
They said a change is gonna come
But never mentioned we might miss it
On the horizon
Everything’s light and
The boats hang like chandeliers
I just wanna taste it
You said nothing is wasted
But there goes another year
If I were just honest
I might get what I wanted for once
If I were just brave enough to feel it
I might know all I needed was love

The Opposite
02:53
|

If everything's a circle
Then is progress an illusion
If we end up where we started
I guess there's no such thing as losing
But you still gotta pass the time,
You still gotta pass the time somehow
In the field behind the campground
Holding rocks, I let my hair down
With our skin on flowerbeds
You asked me what salvation meant
'Cause you heard it in a song
And you were just wondering
For every cruel voice
In my head
You say the opposite
Again and again
And for every fear
There'll be nothing left
You have more for me
You took me to the hospital
I never paid the bill
When I finally told you
You just laughed and laughed until
You took my hand, went to the garden,
Read the numbers soft and slow
That check felt like the closest thing I know to a love note
For every cruel voice
In my head
You say the opposite
Again and again
And for every fear
There'll be nothing left
You have more for me
You have more for me

There's a strange little bird at the motel
And a gun shop three miles ahead
God walked right on up, rang the doorbell
But the TV was on loud so he left
Oh and the flood can't put out the wildfire
Love can't quell what greed desires
Birds like little soldiers in a line
What happens when the battlefield
Engulfs the battle
When the land for which we war
Burns us alive
Call it what you will
The end or just some cosmic shadow
But don't you wanna see yourself
Before you die
The astrologers all said I told you so
You see destruction is a lengthy affair
And so I watched what I could from the window
Until the smoke finally swallowed the air
The flood can't put out the wildfire
Love can't quell what greed desires
Birds like little soldiers in a line
What happens when the battlefield
Engulfs the battle
When the land for which we war
Burns us alive
Call it what you will
The end or just some cosmic shadow
But don't you wanna see yourself
Before you die
Don’t you wanna see yourself
Don’t you wanna see yourself
Don’t you wanna see yourself

Bleed Together
03:42
|

I keep telling myself
To put it all in a song
It's a lot cleaner than calling
I'm still telling myself
That I can't get it wrong
It's all just dust
Spinning and falling
I used to pray to your dad
I don't think I ever told you that
And when we slept beside each other
Our dreams would bleed together
I've been thinking about
Everything I shoved down
Everything that I left unspoken
But I guess you figured it out
'Cause baby I left it to you
To decipher what I couldn't bear to
I used to pray to your dad
I don't think I ever told you that
And when we slept beside each other
Our dreams would bleed together
Is there a little room inside of you
Where I will always be
A window, looking out on everything
A nosebleed seat
And I don't need to fill a stadium
Just a single chair
To know that everything that burns in me
Will burn in you somewhere
I used to pray to your dad
I don't think I ever told you that
And when we slept beside each other
Our dreams would bleed together

I’m learning you don’t get to be nowhere
Just because you’re in between
You still gotta wake up, make peace with the
ghost you’re gonna leave
And what about the ones who know you?
What about them?
What about the ocean, the heartbreak
The things that never end
No pots no ser enlloc ni que ho vulguis
Sempre estàs essent
De nit fantasmes, seguint-te, pots dir-los adéu
I si tornen algun dia
ja seràs forta
Però ara potser és temps de desert
It’s just the beginning
even the end is new
You’re only spinning
It’s nothing you won’t get used to
When you’re still without a way to explain it
finally the footing calls for some changes
canvis que et conduiran sempre
al present que neix del teu ventre
All along the lights were on waiting
I was only wrong to think I could name it
Els camins que has transitat tenen
llums que tu has deixat a cada pas
Maybe we won’t know who we are
until we’re not anymore
Maybe we won’t know who we are
until we’re not anymore
No pots no ser enlloc ni que ho vulguis
Just because you’re in between
De nit fantasmes, seguint-te, pots dir-los adéu
I si tornen algun dia
What about them?
What about the ocean
The heartbreak
The things that never end
When you’re still without a way to explain it
finally the footing calls for some changes
canvis que et conduiran sempre
al present que neix del teu ventre
All along the lights were on waiting
I was only wrong to think I could name it
Els camins que has transitat tenen
llums que tu has deixat a cada pas
Maybe we won’t know who we are
until we’re not anymore
Maybe we won’t know who we are
until we’re not anymore
Maybe we don’t know who we are

Enough is Everything
03:44

The bravest woman that I know
Doesn’t hold a job, answer the phone
From a one bedroom beside the sea
Enough is somehow everything
The truest place I’ve ever been
Is a tiny room inside my chest
Most of the time the doors are locked
But when I make it there I don’t get lost
So I held the world then put it back
What am I to do with all of that
‘Cause she’s split in two
And burning red
With a thinking heart,
A feeling head
If what I meant to say gets lost
Let that be the aim and not the cost
‘Cause I’ve been flipping coins since I was young
Thinking every choice was so hard won
I held the world then put it back
What was I to do with all of that
She’s split in two and burning red
With a thinking heart,
A feeling head
You can only dance the line so long
Before the line itself becomes a song
And evaporates into the air
As if you were never really there
