Garden State 04:05
Don't start with me Going home seems so absurd , how to keep my mind Sort of speak it's me You never wanted to live at the ruins of your soul It's hard to be living everyday You weren't going go home nor treat me this way So find the seed plant it everyday Try to learn to grow that way yeah You never wanted to be the one to grow old Most of us see your morning in your way Slow from the start and you worsen with age So when your hair turns grey you will see before you Leave that you wore it on your sleeve You never wanted to be the one to grow old

Life hold, we're moving on Sever ties and leave at the crack of the dawn A one off euphoria break through this Lost minds stuck to do Repeat days and never settled thoughts of broken hearts Trying to strip everyday away to stay awake Well we go to that That place we met last I don't know I don't see what's wrong With leaving it all behind To go to those Lesser places that we have called our own A day gone is never lost People short the feelings inside their hearts I know I see it all the time Well they go to that That place they live less They think they really got away this time With leaving it all behind To go to those Lesser places that we have called our own

My Love 03:55
Rainy fog in the morning shadows It's you my love Gone to bed in the hall of shadows It's you my love Every song is burning through strings and I don't know what I know But I can't wait here I can still hear her, she's singing It's you my love On the day that she held my fingers Gone to bed in the reign of followers Holding works in the second degree because i have found another way home Because It's you my love Hello I'm coming my dreams are of a child's and I am never coming home

The B.B.C. 03:27
I've gone into night The wind breaks me But I hold tight You know her eyes are bold In one way its a dream and the rest I've disposed But you wanna go And I wanna know I'm the one you rely on Loving me it's a crime I'm the one that you cry on Loving now in this night In this night Starstruck you Wasting light Waiting for the prologue's Knight To fix these endings of scary dreams Into never ending love that you won't see I'm the one you rely on Loving me its a crime I'm the one that you cry on Loving now in the this night I'm the one that you cry on Loving now in the this night Where you go Where you go Where you go Where'd you go?

Holy Ghost 03:20
Hole in the wall Why don't you let go at all For I'm watching a moment of superstitious sounds I don't wanna frown Holy ghost that I can't see Why don't you stick around with me Because it's you that I do see I'm self assured I don't want your words So hang above the clouds It's a rocket tale of woe That never ever takes off Holy ghost that I can't see Why don't you stick around with me Because it's you that I can see Holy ghost I can't see Can't you see you're my destiny And it's you that I won't find Holy ghost that I can see Why don't you stick around with me Because it's you that I can't see Holy ghost that I can't see Can't you see that you're my Destini And it's you that I do love

You don't watch What I see The words you thought but you couldn't dream I know why It must have been that guy So breath deep and follow me For your life is in vain and it ain't cuz of me You love everyone but you don't love me One more day I'm out of time One more love that I can't find You are the broken dream I've lost you to these city streets called home Deepest night oh can't you see I need you and you need me It's someone's job to take Well it seems to me I've got that place One more day I'm out of time One more love that I can't find You are the broken dream I've lost you to these city streets called home

I'm gone baby give it time Watch the source of in-divine Quoted from a text on to you If you read allowed then I might to You know You're not alone anymore A simple life is undefined Can't tell one race from one of a kind If you bark at me , I'll bark at you From love to rags to riches that ain't you You know You're not alone anymore
8.
You hold the contest that I don't even find You watch the sun in my shadow and I don't know its mine Holding through the entire broken mind It's a gun without a trace, but I know it's mine because I hold angels in between the snow That I know heaven holds me in the saneness that I know Ooooo What's left to live in this place I don't even know the reason I became one with you Why I walk and why the sky is blue So when I die and I go on loving you It's like it was meant to be Ohh bullshit that's through I hold angels in between the snow That I know heaven holds me in the saneness that I know Ooooo
9.
When something is moving forward High among the stars so bright I know that something is coming I don't know why I don't know why I don't know why I don't know Moving deeper in abyss I love a god but I don't wanna find My heart, my face, something new I don't know why I won't wait now I don't know why I don't know Just point me which way to go So why can't someone tell me I can't decide this alone So why can't someone tell me I don't know why I don't know

Like Water 03:59
It's like water, deep inside Holding a wave to what I like It's like water, it's a night Where I hold you and you do cry Ooo It's like water, light me up Then throw the rope and catch the moon It's like water, but I'm alright I've copied you to suit my life It's like water , it's a day Where I watch you and you do say That the day will come to end And you will lie and I will bend Oooo It's like water, light me up And throw the rope and catch the moon Its like water. but I'm alright I've copied you, is that alright? My life goes and I'm around, Can't stay one way, the winds inside Hold me closer baby I'm alive I can't believe what's in front of my eyes It's a new lie Oooo

about

This album was built on the ashes of bands and relationships both with girls and friends. I can recall the night before I entered the studio; I was left in a empty house. It was my last couple of nights before I was forced to move back to my hometown. This was the moment that right-angled the rest of my life. Going from taking things lying down to ultimately taking the wheel for the rest of my life. Even now as I write this, I still struggle with the ability to keep that wheel straight. It seems the walls and roads crumble beneath me. Do I continue in the path I've been following? Or do I turn to something more simple? I think back on that moment, sitting in the dark empty hallways, hearing the cracks and creaks of that house. I remember that thought that changed my life forever: it was the purest thought I've ever had, it was so clear. How am I to abandon that? I cannot. These songs not only reflect on all these thoughts and relationships from the past, but also represent the simple beginnings of what is to come next.
