Daydreams

Please/ I’d like to go my speed
A little slower
If you try to escalate, I will go lower
Keep your spark away from me, and I will hide the fuse
I hate that you find me amusing, and I find you a muse
I wish you would get out of my daydreams
It seems that my heart has taken to painting your face
into all of my daydreams
while I have to make do with the distance I create from you
There’s a truth and a lie in each daydream
Scenes that all start impossibly
because you’d hold me only in a daydream
For now I will make do with what I know to be true
I feel for you, at least like companions do
And now’s not the time, and it’s fine
and I won’t wait in line, I’ll just daydream
I know what to do, but can I do it too
Put up a screen you can’t see through
I expect nothing from you
I’m just saying
Each time when you visit my daydreams
I don’t fall apart, but make up a case
as to why I permit you in my daydreams
when you could make do visiting someone new
Go visit someone new

Ceasefire!

Ceasefire, ceasefire
I am an inconvenient truth
Honey drips from my hands
But it looks like venom to you
Don’t it now?
An olive branch in my right hand
And a white flag in my left
You won’t let me say it with my mouth
So i’ll scream it from my chest
Ceasefire, ceasefire
Neither you nor I can see behind
The trenches we’re so deep down inside
Every time you lie I die a little
So I’m calling for a ceasefire, oh
Ceasefire, ah
Men are from mars
Your heart fights a war with your head
Damned up the reservoir
Stuff your ears with cotton instead
A white flag in my left hand
And an olive branch in my right

Sing to the Moon
02:59

At night I sing to the moon
Whispering low about you
If you’re looking up
And the music’s low enough
You can probably hear it too
Last night I sang to the moon
Wailing on about lover’s past
With their ears to the ground
Maybe my voice will carry down and my words will be the last
I don’t know what it means to mend
And i know i won’t hear from you soon
But ‘til then
I’ll tie up my ends
And hang them on the moon
Each night i sing to the moon
Stone cold sober and stoned
And i try to catch the sunset on the causeway
Cause something has to burn the bridge I won’t

Deep End
05:18
|

Staring out the window on the highway
I know you grew up in the place where the green signs say I am
And I swore I saw your backyard in the distance
Your dad made you rake the leaves you said I wouldn’t understand
I don’t watch horror films except when you put on Donny Darko
And you took the empathetic route far less than I do
I was tougher than I looked or at least i thought so
We laughed at monsters under your bed the night you told me that I loved you
And I’m..
Off the deep end
Into your deep I went
I’ll tread this water as long as I can stand
It’s not wallowing if it helps me figure out who I am
You called me in/ Dragged me down
And held me closer so i couldn’t climb out
Off the deep end
Into your deep I went
I’ll tread this water as long as I can stand
It’s not wallowing if it helps me figure out who i am
It’s not wallowing if it helps me figure out what I want
It’s not wallowing if it helps me to understand him
It’s not wallowing if it helps me to protect my heart from the deep end
