Sunrise out the window
I feel it close
I can feel it in the air
So I don't mind the bullshit that gets tossed my way
Some would call it God, but that name is just so broad
Just like every word, put your meaning on it
Drink the Koolaid all us and commit this promise
But it's easier said than done
Don't fly too close to the sun
Mind your own business
Don't worry 'bout the physics
I see why (ooh you know I need it)
Head so wide (reach the sky you and me)
Digging for the gold like it grows
So I guess you know now this is how it goes
I'm down for the ride
I'm feeling like
I see the light
When you're in my sight
I'm fallin' feel like it's autumn
C'mon let's go leave from this garden
And color our words past the margins
Let's skim the stars like the world is ours
Though we're worlds apart
Like Martians making it to Noah's ark
Or my hometown map in a foreign park
I don't mind 'cause I'm so fond of your mind
You're mesmerizing yet so odd
Going through my head in slow jog
I think this is it
Getting lost with you by my side in the sticks
No watch on my wrist
Suspended in time with you on rewind

This feeling's washing over me
It doesn't have to be a thing you see
You're infrared you're radar
Yes we found each other
Now let's make art
I'll stroke your brushes
Paint our colors
But watch the thorns beneath the buds
Now you're infrared and radar
What you're trying to see is too far
Too far
Feel like I'm up in a vortex
You get me and all my proportions
How can it get so good blame the endorphins
Go ahead call in the horses
Get in the carriage, oh all that ignore it
Baggage you see's getting all shipped
Wait here I'll go pack up our suitcase
Let's fly to Kauai in the cockpit
No let's settle the moon let's light up the rockets
Adam and Eve in this conquest chasing all of the comets
Dodging alien saucers, you get the synopsis
Like baby not to be pompous but ain't nothin gon' top us
Flying high we'll swerve the sun our wings are fine
You got me got me floating
I'm in the clouds, got me overdosing
I'm on the ground it's hard to settle down
No time for sitting around

Waves

Will the waves pull me in 'fore my mind goes?
Will I always be insane when I'm with you?
If we keep on only living in the future
Does that make us timeless?
Will the waves pull me in 'fore my mind goes?
Will I always feel this way when I'm with you?
If we keep on only living in the future
Does that make us timeless?
I fell right through
Our tightly locked fingers
Laughter was fading
I couldn't understand it
But we couldn't be the same
It'll never be the same

Find Out

She comes from a higher place
As she takes small steps
Down the mountain
She descends from a great height
As she takes sweet bites
Through the grasses
When she arrives to the ground
Didn't see there's a crowd
They've been waiting
You don't know fear
Your trust brought you near
What you see now that you are here
All you've held dear
It all disappears
You can't see now that you are here
(It's the feelin' I feel that I'm feelin')
Feel my breath get level
He lived with his head in the clouds
Wishing that things were still light in his mind now
He left without fear in his heart
Couldn't predict just yet what he'd find out
And then he reached all the crowds
They all let him down
They've been waiting

When My Side Has Won

I was spending my time on the sideline
Something about it felt alright
I remember watching from the sideline
Cheering on the crowds who fought the fight
I was one of the masses on my cellphone
Taking pictures of myself alone
Trapped inside the noise of my cellphone
I'll come back when my side has won

I'm shook, running away from the brook
Pushing it foot after foot
Keeping it sush no rustling the leaves in the bushes
Don't want to attract any looks
Feeling like time is a crook
'cause it's always like this once the night hits
Watch them daintily cast their shadows on the light I build my life with
Got me thinking in circles, caught in my head
Reaching for slumber just stuck in the bed
Eyes droopy today I'm scratching my lids
I've let it marinate for far too long
Turn back to the water push me afloat
Puffing my chest then I hear it croak
Echoing louder as I encroach
Feeling the fear coating my throat
I see you across the lake
I'm steeping low eyes are wading
Sleep at times but always waiting
All your time is all I'm craving
But for now I'll give you space
Barely buoyant on this placid lake
Get the masking tape, this sail is broken
Holes on this boat have the drainage pouring
It's been weeks on this lake and we're deep in this wake it started
They told me to take it slowly
Choose your adventure but take on the safest story
But the days are showing that the rain is roaring
Can't escape the stormy nights hold tight to faith and glory
They said that too and I wish it were just that simple
My mind's too wrinkled to tame my mood
We're tied by a rope on the mast
Drooped in the water straight through the sand
Strapped to the neck of my demons that splash
Time to time just to feed off my plans
I'm with you in the shadows
Even after dark
No sleeping through the battle
You telling me I gotta settle with ya
Feeling like I gotta go and pick up the pieces
You gave me away
No longer what it used to be
But good as far as you can see yeah...
And I'm here you're alright
Look at the sky
I told myself don't look the beast in the eye
Just follow the belt 'till the dawn cracks, baby you should be fine
As we're floating toward the opposite way
Choosing to ignore my advice
I'm feeling the wake approaching
Growing the waves in motion
Center my locus as my focus
While my throat gets frozen
Still little fish inside water
Feel like this lake's an ocean
You caught me drowning though I know I'll turn around
I'll match my ego with this darkness that I found
I'm peeling off tape, I'll sew the sail up
Let go of dead weight and trust in my ways
Binding my shoulders, brace for these waves
Watching the ripples stray from the shade
Mouth rimmed with teeth eyes swimming slow
My shadow's gripping won't let me go
I feel it flexing and grab my throat
While I stretch the rope up against the boat
Feel like I'm up in a vortex
My body in folded contortions
How did it get so goddamn out of orbit
I thought you were dormant
In the midst of these motherless omens
Is this life or am I just broken
Feeling possessed with no control
And now my throat is croaking
Stay away from the wake
The ripples and waves
