Path To A Moment
03:21
|
|||
|
Do you really need to ask how we got here?
Have you been sleeping for consecutive years?
All it takes is some retracing of footsteps to see the
Path to a moment of
Weakness
It’s no surprise how we got stuck in the quicksand.
We all had maps before we set them on fire.
There’s no need to reverse engineer to see a
Path to a moment
Of grievance
I know it’s hard for you to fathom the difference
Between the thinking people we used to be
And whatever we became as we built a
Path to a moment
Of idiocy

Mister Good Vibes

You showed us the world
Through a camera obscura
You taught us the ways
Of speaking so softly
You’ve proven to us
That one can sit lightly
And for that, we...
Thank you Mister Good Vibes
Thank you Mister Good Vibes
Please take good care of us
You’ve invented new rules
That need no enforcement
Tell us the rules
So we can ignore them
We’re greedy to know
Your satisfaction
And for that, we...
Thank you, Mister Good Vibes
Thank you, Mister Good Vibes
Please take good care of us

It's All So Lovely

Only passing by
Clementine skys
Your hair
The palms
It’s all so lovely
Humans are moving about
Fountains and flowers are out
Someone surrendered your name
It’s Friday
Turn to chapter two
He and you
Your skin
The sea
It’s all so lovely
Dolphins and seals and the waves
Ice cream and babes taking shade
Somebody yelled out your name
It’s Friday
Now there’s me and you
Dinner for two
Your eyes
The wine
It’s all so lovely
Picture a house and a yard
Never a dream to discard
Children with interesting names
It’s Friday

Cool breeze
03:04
|

|
He’s got his menthol lights
He’s living his best life
In his century stride
Cool Breeze
Isn’t up for a fight
He’s high as a kite
Coralling a dream
Tell his mama
And tell his papa
He’s got his head on straight
Cool breeze
Got his feathers tight
He winks cause it feels right
The street is a tapestry
Cool breeze
Never cared to be white
His future is so bright
Just tread carefully
Tell his mama
And tell his papa
He’s got his head on straight
Cool breeze
Cool breeze

You Are An Animal
03:12
|
|||
|
Did you really need to hunt me down?
Did you really need to drag me down?
Do you really have to bat me around?
Yes, I understand that now
It all makes sense
It’s not as nuts as it sounds
Because you are an animal
Did you really have to tear me apart?
Did you really have to stop my heart?
Can’t I get a running start?
Please, I’ll get down on my knees
Pretty pretty please
I’m getting on my knees
But you are an animal
Maybe there’s a way to get out of this mess
Maybe there’s a way to survive
So I could stay alive
Maybe I could make an appeal
Maybe we could make a deal
Maybe I could you feel
If I tell you where the hunters live
Would that suffice
And maybe keep me alive
Because you are an animal

As Seen Through Weather
04:12
|
|||
|
I saw it through the fog
Then again it might not have been there
A sea of fallen logs
Pale, just like driftwood
Maybe it was the fog
That obscured our real intentions
Helped us feel the loss
Of the millenium
But you
You looked just like you
Like you always do
You didn’t even turn around
Didn’t even need to face me
Didn’t even feel the open ground
Ahhhhh
I saw it through the rain
The house was built from water
Somehow not insane
But real, just like weather
Maybe it was the rain
That caused all this confusion
The moon is on the wane
But it still glows, just like you do
Yes you
You looked just like you
Like you always do
You didn’t even turn around
Didn’t even need to face me
Didn’t even feel the open ground
