I don’t remember how it started
But I remember it was spring
The sun was just above the water
The ships just had started coming in
I was scared that I would blow it
Show myself to be the fool
never talked of love or felt it
Still I tried to keep my cool
I looked across the room and see you smile
I was so much younger then
I’m feeling so much older now
Never knew what I’m supposed to do
Still don’t have a clue somehow
I don’t remember where I got it
But we both knew it when it came
Opened up and covered us like silence
Felt our hearts beat again
I’m still scared that I will blow it
Show myself for what I am
A selfish broken battered vessel
Never keeping any plans
I still look across the room and see you smile

Don't Trust Your Love

I woke up in the afternoon
My hands were numb
I can hardly see
I’m breakin down like childs toy
Growin’ up
Fallin’ apart at the seams
Nothing ever changes
When you’re making ends meet
Burning both sides at a time
Living paycheck to paycheck in house
Thats falling in around us
Beam by beam
Don’t
Don’t trust your love with me
You wrote your congressman to tell him
How angry you were
Knowing he never reads
Catharsis comes in waves like rolling hills
Just never covered in green
Nothing ever changes when I’m making ends meet
Burning both sides at a time
I never care about a day till it gets done
But you’re always on my side

Separate Ways

Go ahead and say what's on your mind
Let the words fall out like marbles when the time is right
Count your blessings you still have your life
In five years you’ll forget what I look like
By this time tomorrow I’ll be gone
By this time tomorrow I’ll be gone
We have to go our separate ways
Cause I can’t watch your heart break again
You need a heart that is made for yours
And is’t just a fleeting glimpse of more
but what will surely come
Make it work whatever way you can
Say I cheated, say I left you, say I never held your hand
Count your sheep before you get in bed
Chances are we’ll never ever meet again

Black Water

Our life was changing
We’re not the type who fight
This land has gave up
Only rocks and sand in sight
Everything I had was gone
Overnight, overnight
All that I can see are rocks
And the waves and stars in the sky
Dark ocean
Black water bring drag me down
Lead me home or let me drown
There’s nowhere else for us to be
Black water waves and cold
They stole my life and home
And now it's just you and me
I feel it's creeping
It burns like coals upon my feet
Walking further
To where the stars meets the sea
Everything I had was gone
Overnight, overnight
All that I can feel is place
Where my heart used to be
Black water bring drag me down
Lead me home or let me drown
There’s nowhere else for us to be
Black water waves and cold
They stole my life and home
And now it's just you and me

Every Now And Again

When you walked in a room
Everything went half speed
When you looked in my eyes
All i feel are heartbeats
I’m not the only one
Who felt this way
We all fell prey to your spell
Each and every day
Every now and again I find out
Someone seen your ghost around town
Every Now and again I hear your name
Hidden in the songs I sing
I woke up to your eyes
In a white light morning
We told our parents we would
move our lives to norway
I’m not the only one
Who fell apart
I slept out in my car for weeks
To hide from my heart

Under A Bigger Sky

For years
a place where kids could play
No more
will we find a place for shade
Just think
how much history they saw
These trees
Taken down before they rot
Just like that they were gone
Just like that they were gone
Under a bigger sky
All these clouds are so close
All these stars so bright
Under a bigger sky
Finally see what's overhead
All that's still left in life
And now
All the echos start to fade
This town
Is moving past the pain
These ghosts
Still singing in the yard
These eyes
Still don’t want to see so far
Just like that they were gone
Just like that they were gone
