Driftwood
03:13
|
|||
Tide-wrack never belongs,
just inhabits the place
wherever it may land
Oh, it must long for old days.
And how I have drifted,
driftwood gripping for land
Wrecked off the tide,
found my home in the sand
The warm embrace of Pacific rain
a gracious, loving host
Still how I long and I long
For when I held yr love close
Today, I miss you the most

Coffee
03:29
|
|||
Coffee ground, I'm half awake
Had to go and build a home
Had to swim, keep my head afloat
I don't know how to swim
Now time moves slow,
I don't know where to go,
Where I could go to pass the time
Things are okay
I feel lingering pain
From losing my purpose
Almost fell apart
Would've missed the best part
'Cause today is better than before
I'll leave it all at the door
And swim to some distant shore
Today is better than before

Ordinary Pain
02:37
|
|||
Will the sun feel watered down
When I feel my feet on solid ground?
Will I know the pleasure
of settling down, being better off?
Will it bring me joy to know
I can settle down and let it go
or will I just hold this ordinary pain?
Will my bones feel radiant
When my mother prays for them?
Will I know the joy it brings
to feel such a lovely thing?
Will it turn me whole to know
I can settle down and let it go
or will I just hold this ordinary pain?
Oh, what do I long for?
Just to hold this ordinary pain

Rolling Train
03:43
|
|||
I cant wait til it'll be
You and me on that rolling train
Sure, I'll miss my family
But I couldn't breath being who I'd be
If I stuck around here
And lay to waste any precious place
The golden part of my heart
Would, without doubt, disintegrate or break
I can't wait 'til I'll be
Rewired on that rolling train
A healthy desire
To fall asleep without the sirens
If I stuck around here
Faking grace and out of place
The golden part of my heart
Would, without doubt, disintegrate or break

Place
03:33
|
|||
How longs it take to forget a place?
The light it gives and the life it takes?
Is all of the waiting in vain?
What a waste
How longs it take to create new space
Filled with ease, a familiar face?
Weightless and drifting,
'til there's reason to stay
Hold on, take the time to breath
Know it's time and what you need
Say so long to the long dream,
A bittersweet retreat
