COMEBACK
02:33
|

the ebb and the flow
how it comes and goes
it will be back again
if now's not the time
don't pay any mind
to distractions or doubt
from within and without
there's nothing to prove
and it's all up to you
and they don't owe you a thing
but there's still plenty reason to sing
so I'm going to sing
a layer of dust
and a hungry rust
I am born again
and in the shadows
and between the cracks
I'll find a way
to make my
comeback
the ebb and the flow
how it comes and goes
it will be back again

SET THE RECORD
02:18
|

midnight on a saturday
with the apartment to yourself
come July we'll set the record straight
writing notes to your future self again
next time around might have a plan
brave the night and settle in
silence can be deafening
find the light within
it's coming into focus
gotta take a step back to see it
it's coming into focus
but you gotta take a step back to see it

FOOLS' GOLD
02:45
|

out the window
and in full view
the sky it calls
that familiar blue hue
that is seen
on the best days
and my dreams
they are raging
like a pack of dogs
that have the scent
don't let your radio
go silent
after the dew
on the grass outside
after blue streetlights
and midnight drives
there's all that fools' gold
that shines so bright
that I almost got carried away
by that fools' gold
that shines so bright
that I almost got carried away
they've got a line round the corner
full of people willing to pay
for that fools' gold
that shines so bright
that I almost got carried away
out the window
and in full view
the sky it calls
that familiar blue hue
that is seen
on the best days
and my dreams
they are raging
they are raging

HAYSTACK
03:02
|
|||
I can feel it in my fingertips
I can feel it in my bones
I can feel it in my fingertips
I can feel it in my bones
I'm on my hands and knees
and the dust is in my eyes
I have found it
I have found my prize
it's just a haystack
it's just a haystack
it's just a haystack
it's just a haystack
I can feel it in my fingertips
I can feel it in my bones
at the end of the day
I am no longer alone
I can feel it in my fingertips
I can feel it in my bones

P. I.
02:28
|
|||
sure come pick me up
we'll be the only ones on the road
no I didn't tell my friends
and I don't think
they would give a damn
and I don't mind
hearing this song for the third time
and I can feel the wind
coming in through the door
and the ocean
she sounds angry tonight
and we've got one road
no evacuation
yeah we've got one road
no evacuation
yeah we've got one road
no evacuation

GOODS

damaged goods and lucky breaks
sometimes you need a beautiful mistake
half full and in between
there's more to it than it seems
wrong turns but the right direction
will get you there but will keep you guessing
chart your course and tow the line
it's alright it's only time
and it's only been a couple miles
but there is something I am drawn to
that peace of mind that shines through
and all the roads that have been laid down
they do not define you
they only serve you
in the shadow of your heart's desires
damaged goods and lucky breaks
sometimes you need a beautiful mistake
half full and in between
there's more to it than it seems
wrong turns but the right direction
will get you there but will keep you guessing
chart your course and tow the line
it's alright it's only time
