Been treading water And no one came The land So far Away And my horizon Is rising chrome This day So overgrown Let’s take A step away I need You yesterday On urban islands We raise our walls Soft echoes In The halls And morning tremors That dim the day Though something Has To change Let’s take A step away I need You yesterday We tried the trestles When bridges burned A home With no Return Was once so simple Now all but gone So I’ll Just wander On Let’s take A step away I need You yesterday

Alone Is how You drive through open country with the windows down The diesels howl And I am heading home no better time than now Time than now I’m cold As night As Colorado winters, as the looks you hide So I’ll Just drive And leave behind forgiveness Give this road my life And leave behind forgiveness Give this road my life Hearts Don’t believe What you may have seen Smoke Is all I breathe What more do you need The desert wide Buy silver at the rest stop with a turquoise eye And coral cries A tear just like a bloodstone think I’m gone this time Gone this time Takes love To hate We go our separate ways each and every day Until It takes Til I shout out my lungs on empty interstates Til I shout out my lungs on empty interstates Hearts Don’t believe What you may have seen Smoke Is all I breathe What more do you need Don’t say Goodbye Just know that I did everything except for try The open sky speaks volumes if you leave room, if you ask them why Ask them why So one More night Before me and the cost if I don’t close my eyes Just read Between The lanes the lines and hope to god you translate right The lanes the lines and hope to god you translate right Hearts Don’t believe What you may have seen Smoke Is all we breathe What more do you need

Omens 03:16
You whispered omens in my ear That only I could hear Said love was not a sentiment You wanted to come near And I can promise that my Promises won’t keep But love is just another Another word for leave You caught me in a crossfire Crossroads on the cross And I've been sharing wilderness And I've been at a loss Out there trying to align with With anyone at all I’m on an island and I And I built the wall And I walk against my will And it’s all up a hill And I wish the night could be so still So We sew our sullen secrets We stitch our whispered wounds A Tapestry of weakness A new wind blowing soon I got Frauds you can believe in I got Truths not meant for you And I'm bound no matter No matter what you do And I walk against my will And it’s all up a hill And I wish the night could be so still And I wish the night could be so still

Speak of possibilities Take the old coast road and breathe Make the most of reverie Whisper this one lie to me We were caution to the wind Patience is a virtue and I promise I will hurt you friend How else do you see this end We were young We framed our fangs like wolves We aimed our gun at setting sun Too fearful and frail to pull Too fearful and frail to pull At the seat of evening shade Honey sweet the bed we made A throne for kings and queens betrayed I dare you Look the other way So wear me down with cliffs and time Wear your heart where I can find In the cracks where balance hides How our hours occupied We were young We framed our fangs like wolves We aimed our gun at setting sun Too fearful and frail to pull Too fearful and frail to pull Somewhere in the back of my mind Somewhere in the back of my mind Somewhere in the back of my mind There’s time Somewhere I’ve been trying to find Somewhere I’ve been trying to find Somewhere I’ve been trying to find This time Either way it’s getting dark Tired eyes we need to park Set this off before it starts Read the braille of broken hearts On the side of empty streets Rain is pouring down on me Dreams are few and far between But this one is within my reach We were young We framed our fangs like wolves We aimed our gun at setting sun Too fearful and frail to pull Too fearful and frail to pull

Nothing 02:33
One more day One more night No real winners in this fight Back n forth Ebb and flow Test the things you think you know In the end In the end It is nothing once again In the end In the end We hold nothing Fill the tank Break the bank All those I forgot to thank Left behind Time to go Rearview is a catacomb Darkness falls On the town Long black veil is coming down One more star One less car Ebony a desert crown In the end In the end It is nothing once again In the end In the end We hold nothing And if you want to chase the sun And leave soon as day is done I’ll come And let go all this emptiness With fever dreams ahead of us I’ll run Spend your truths Could you buy More with the currency of lies In my ear Speak to me Tell me all you think I need Halfway here Halfway there Halfway home with time to spare Got regrets No one cares Cast them out in this air In the end In the end It is nothing once again In the end In the end We hold nothing

I Get Gone 04:50
Face is a ghost By the glow of the phone In the still of the night Under light of the moon Texas is vast And it won't let us pass Every new tank of gas Every fresh sun in bloom I’d get gone If I could But it won’t do no good At the edge of the night Where the black is as bright As the dead empty road That exposes a soul For just what it is Been lost in the dark Like a raven against The coal canvas of hearts I’d get gone If I could But it won’t do no good Been trying And driving In circles for days Living Loving And lying And planning escape Far between dreams By the badlands in flames By the heat of the sun By the fevers we’ve tamed But I'm aimed as an arrow Straight shot to the heart To the center of something To the edge of this dark I’d get gone If I could But it won’t do no good It’s too late It’s too late We’ve gone too far away

All I need's A bit Of bad news All I need is something to lose Yes The steady Days enduring I’m better bitter At the boredom I hesitate To read the headlines I never Meant to Wish us Bad times It's A dead end Desk with dead eyes And This blood’s Too young For deadlines And I Wish you kept your distance And we crave What we can't reach at that instant I'm caught Up Wishing For the weather To swallow Every slight endeavor I’m staring Out Into the ether Knowing I'm prepared for neither And I Wish you kept your distance And we crave What we can't reach at that instant Wave goodbye to all the headache Drown the debt the dark the heartbreak Wash away the desperation Through Pretending in my patience And I Wish you kept your distance And we crave What we can't reach at that instant And I’m Longing for an avalanche Cause it’s the only chance I have to start again

Honey 05:00
Honey Why is night so cold I don't own a coat So I'll hold you close Mountain Air is fair and thin You young seraphim Hair against the wind Black as night And raven wings As the tar touched veins After embers fade You were Passing in the eve And you had to leave Though you left the need Tethered To this quiet town Feel I'm falling down In a lost and found Weathered Under sky as clear As when I came here And my greatest fear is Comfort And its cozy cost Is that you get caught Before you grab it all Til then Can we braid our breath Tying knots at night When we should have slept Distance May be all we have Maybe just enough Least to line a path Sentence Serve the best you can Volley words and worth Learn the lay of the land Something Says we'll meet again Don't believe in law Except all things will end Night falls Over all of us Blinds me to the rust Though you'll have to trust

Dirge 04:07
We had Winter’s bare bones Ahead of our homelessness And freedom Comes with the same weight As that of your ownership And I made my way with a lie A name and a knife With you at my side And all This love is for naught If it ends in such loneliness Ends in such loneliness Such Loneliness We've built A glass house of cards And it will Collapse on us Threw stones with broke bones and black hearts All in the name of trust It's said To get ahead There's no time for regret There’s only what’s next But when The leaves are so thin You see all the lives you've lost You see all the lives you've lost Your loss And It’s you It’s always been you You outgrew your use It’s you It’s always been you Love hate and truth It’s you It’s always been you After all we’ve been through It’s you It’s always been you So I Think of those days When nothing was just enough Barren As those white winter fields With nowhere to go but up And you With hell in your eyes And heaven inside And aims on the night It’s just A photograph Of something long past my love Something long past my love My love
