I wanna be in the air
The same that carries you
For a moment a year
No talking of the view
Our little plans and schemes
Transpiring
Boy, you feel the wait
Was or wasn’t it a dream we had or no?
Now the days are fading
Boy, you feel the wait
Was or wasn’t it a dream we had or no?
Now the days are fading
Don’t pretend that you’re caught in
A constant haze of the current
I took a walk to the edge
And turned to face the time
Somewhere between now and then
It must have slipped my mind
You were up ahead
In a distant afternoon
Reliving it
Boy, you feel the wait
Was or wasn’t it a dream we had or no?
Now the days are fading (days are fading)
Boy, you feel the wait (was or wasn’t it?)
Boy, you feel the wait (was or wasn’t it?)
For the first time, always
If I’m leaving, I’m stalling
For the first time, always
If I’m leaving, I’m stalling
For the first time, always

You chose to hide away, two feet in
Dissolved apart from us
Can’t go moving on
Comes in tidal waves, slipping back
Holding what you can
Of past in the waiting
Of future recalled from another home
Where you could dance
As the saints were marching in
Show me how it started
Just as I’d lost you, perfectly out of time
Lord knows I wanted to be in that number with you
When the moon covers the sun
And turns red as warm blood
I’d have turned to you
Without fear of what’s to come
Knowing that as the rest melts away
It would have felt like it always had,
Resolved to oblivion
But you chose to hide away, two feet in
Dissolved in part for us
Can’t go moving on
Comes in tired ways, turning back
As though decisions made before you were born
Before you were born
Before you were born
Before you were born
So tired of waiting to get back to where we already were
Where was I when we fell from them to us?
So show me how it started
Just as I’d lost you, perfectly out of time
Lord knows I wanted to be in that number with you
(You chose to hide)
Lord knows I wanted to be in that number with you
(You chose to hide)
Lord knows I wanted to be in that number with you
(In fear of what you’d say)
Lord knows I wanted to be in that number with you
(You chose to hide away)

For What Was
03:58
|

Split me right from the start
One half deserving more than the other
Lean into stranger thoughts
Stronger than I could dare ignore
Once more once more once more
Something I could be the first to know
If you’d give it one more chance
I’d give all that I was sure you’d hoped
But I know it’s not the answer
Now you’re dulling it down
With every vain attempt to relate
As every match holds a fire
In all the histories burnt out of place
Something I could be the first to know
If you’d give it one more chance
I’d give all that I was sure you’d hoped
But I know it’s not the answer
No way in love for what was
No way in love for what was
No way in love for what was
Something I could be the first to know
If you’d give it one more chance
I’d give all that I was sure you’d hoped
But I know it’s not the answer
Something I could be the first to know
If you’d give it one more chance
I’d give all that I was sure you’d hoped
But I know it’s not the answer
I can’t help it [No way in love for what was]
I want more from it [No way in love for what was]
I can’t help it [No way in love for what was]
I want more from it, from it
[If I dream alone is it real love?]
I can’t help it
[No way in love for what was]
I want more from it
[No way in love for what was]
[If I dream alone is it real love?]
I can’t help it
[No way in love for what was]
I want more from it, from it
[If I dream alone is it real love?]
I can’t help it
[No way in love for what was]
I want more from it
[No way in love for what was]
[If I dream alone is it real love?]
I can’t help it
[No way in love for what was]
I want more from it, from it

Missing calls
Go
Underwater
Into tunnels eyes closed
Surfacing
Allow
Fear to enter
I’ll
Turn the wrong
Side out
Go take my time
Offer me another one
Go take your time
I’ll be in the liminal
Go take my time
Offer me another one
Go take your time
I’ll be in the liminal
Figured it all combines
Is it full or hollow?
And if you’re real have it all
Should there even be a fight for it
(I’m no)
Go take my time
Offer me another one (I’m no)
Go take your time (Sideshow)
I’ll be in the liminal (I’m no)
(Figured it all combines)
Go take my time
(Is it full or hollow?)
Offer me another one (I'm no)
(And if you’re real have it all)
Go take your time (Sideshow)
I’ll be in the liminal

So Still

Search the street
For parking, walking
Back to meet
You and question it all
Our choices make us happy
Mostly they guard us from
The fear of moving the car
I wanna be there for all
All the practical stuff
For the price of your mind you notice
It’s gonna take me a while
Never wanted to go until you said that you might
I'm that age where there's more said than done
Guess I had a good time
So still, like there's something you wanna say
Shrug it off for another day
As if you'd shatter the morning air
With an impossible sound
So still, as if there's something you wanna say
"I'm fine" but that can mean anything
And all the time living in our heads
Is only breaking us down
Back inside
We're pacing, racing
A party screams at us
From the neighbors next door
Never wanted to go until you said that you might
I'm that age where there's more said than done
Guess I had a good time
So still, like there's something you wanna say
Shrug it off for another day
As if you'd shatter the morning air
With an impossible sound
So still, as if there's something you wanna say
"I'm fine" but that can mean anything
And all the time living in our heads
Is only breaking us down

Never Rest For Good
04:53
|

All that I know is you threw your arms around and let go
You could not say why you’d left it before
We could ever have gone without
All that I know all that you gave without ever knowing
Seems your world’s spinning on as I’m left in the dark
And I can’t keep my arms around it
I won’t dig into this life
I won’t dig in until this life is over
In another world you were there beside me (hey)
In other words you were out of sight
If I had the nerve I would walk up to you (hey)
What’s left unsaid will never rest for good
All that I’d known seemed to dissolve
When you would walk up to me, slow
Always afraid to admit what was obvious
But I’d make much of nothing
Still I’d wait always
Countless wasted moments gone for what
Still I’d wait always
Countless wasted moments hung on you
I won’t dig into this life
I won’t dig in until this life is over
In another world you were there beside me (hey)
In other words you were never mine
If I had the nerve I would walk up to you (hey)
What’s left unsaid will never rest until this life is over
Still I’d wait always,
Wasted moments
I’d wait always,
Wasted moments hung on you

When the sky is turning red
And sun bleeds out its last
Would you know that I’d
Have loved you all this time
Even through the lives we’d lived apart?
Nights would raise no dawns
And all those centuries burn
I’d turn around, turn around
To fall awake with you there
Some piece of mind always kept
Pure, if imperfectly born to life
I know it’s not enough to hope
When you can’t stop imagining
An end as clear as night is black
Oh, I’d carry all your past
And feel you whole for once
If it takes us right up to
When nights would raise no dawns
And all those centuries burn
As the oldest eyes see young
And not all lives end honest

Are You Gonna Be Okay
02:32
|

I wanted to get out there anyway,
try to catch a cold in for the day.
To see a film meant more decisions,
and no one watches television.
It’s not that I could help it; to start
I was a kid and cut my own hair in the dark—
belief I found annoying.
The talk of death could get so boring.
Time goes to waste in a year,
and I’m hoping
that we’ll remain friends.
Are you gonna be
okay?
Bet you’re thinking that there must be more to this,
window shopping in a life that you made of glass.
Oh won’t you tell me what you’re feeling,
not another reason.
Look around a land of fibers at the cars,
at the stores all pushing nothing and at once;
hope that you enjoy it—
not that you can own it.
Smile, are you really there,
and you’ll give it
everything that you can?
Timeless and mean in the end,
and you dare it,
all we left unsaid

In A Year
03:49

You waved to New York
Jumped in the passenger side
A visage of dreamers
Hung there in the mirror
People always said
We were born for each other
I swear I was born for none
Other than the hope
We could make it for longer
Oh how we proved them wrong
I can’t force away the feeling
I can’t force away the feeling
Of racing up over the trees
And parking lot squares
Of gray bathed in amber
Thought we’d be back in a year
People always said
We were born for each other
I swear I was born for none
Other than the hope
We could make it for longer
Oh how we proved them wrong

Comma, Comma
04:36

Bothered
It’s killing, count me older
This film that never was
Make sure that I’m over it
Comma,
A pause that came on slowly
And groceries for one
Make sure that I’m over it
Followed
A call to know the hurting
This film that never was
Wake up so you’re over it
Comma,
The rest to follow swiftly
With room for more than one
Make sure that you’re over it
I tried to be
I tried being alone
Alone
Alone
I tried to be
I tried being alone
Alone
Alone
I tried
I tried
I tried
I tried to be
I guess I’d never told ya I’d
Figured it was all better
Holding on, yet somehow I’d
Not taken on December as
You’d hoped, and now it’s all but up
Can’t begin to watch another
Fold me under some bandage
Nothing ever stung redder
But dreamt all of December, I’d

Hey, we're leaning closer than we’ll ever know
Another year, you and I, we could have more to show
Just wait, don't hit eject until the pressure builds
Let's waste another eyelash asking for some help
Oh better late than...
Oh better late than...
Days return to normal on the strangest terms
A place to be together to forget we were
You’ve got a head on your shoulders, no believe me
Go spend your time on a dream no one’s achieving
You bake the cake, and they share it when they eat it
Don’t call it though it’s getting late
You know the rush and the ride of breaking even
Don't make the music you think they’re into hearing
You're at the gate, set the taste and pin the feeling
Don’t call it though it’s getting late
Oh better late than...
Call it
Call it
Oh better late than...
Don’t call it though it’s getting late
