Enter now Into the Hidden hollow Why should it be So hard To find What it is Your mind is eyeing this space Picture perfect Fallen limbs Broken skulls And shitty pigeons Why should it be Anything Less than Everything at once Hallways of white oak Where drinkers toke a note Woke up sick again Won’t have to live like that Enter now Into the Hidden hollow Why should it be So hard To find What it is Your mind is eyeing this space

I can remember waiting on the stairs Hoping to hear your footsteps Approach me there Heart pounding… Summer sun beating on My brow Know when I say, “It’s all for us now…” By then we were drinking It all down Trying To haze out Our minds “Why did you show up two years too late?” Back then he was looking To leave town Pouring it all down Pour it all down All down. Back then he was looking At the one Trying To make sense Falling all in Fall in…

You’ll get by You’ll get through, oh… In the end In our own time You’ll get home, soon In the end When you’re down Look on up, above Cause when you know… You’ll get by You’ll get by

Sun Dagger 04:59
It’s an honest thing to wonder… It’s an honest time to care When you notice that you’re under Can you find the knife to bleed the sun? It’s an honest time to follow Always driving towards sunlight You can hide, it’ll be hollow Just don’t frighten in the night And who will join you? And who… And who will see you? Sun dagger won’t you warn me Sun dagger won’t you warn us It’s an honest thing to wonder… It’s a normal thing to carry When you try your best but you’re under When the snow has melted it all And who is knocking? And who… And who will join you? Sun dagger won’t you warn me Sun dagger can you warn us Sun dagger won't you warn me Sun dagger Sun dagger won’t you warn me It’s an honest thing to wonder… It’s an honest time to care It’s an honest time to wonder… It’s a normal thing to carry When you try your best, but you’re under…

Finches 06:19
Outside the finch is looking in Besides the drops falling down Soak in the gray sky And look on up As they fall down All down Outside the finches looking in… The branches are bare now and heavy Can you still fly Out the doorway Until dusk Wondering if We can make it back here On our own Inside the wicked one is looking For a grim peace Were the myths true; Will he find you? Oh and the finches are flying so wild Wondering why They had to glide so far Taking the just, the travelled nowhere Oh and the finches Oh and the finch is… Flying so wild Outside the finch is looking in Besides the drops falling down Soak up the gray Fly Only in the rain Only in rain Can you fly

You will get by You will get home And now you know it is time To settle and to vanish No moon, no sky, no words It’s on Sam’s bench that we’ll say goodbye You will get home You will be one And now you see the next one new When had it got so old? You see the bats fly across… You see the bats fly toward the moon You swam in the ocean of black Just hoping for it to get better You ran never looking back Never looking back Now can you find The way to get here With a full bottle of wine No time, no time, no time No sky, no words On Sam’s Bench Just stay

Five AM 05:32
It’s five AM It’s four below Looking up at The branches under lit by the streetlights It’s five AM It’s four below Laying by the lake There’s no one ready to wake When it all just like it did the first time… It’s five AM It’s four below Will you remember when the leaves were ready to go It’s five AM And the night just won’t end While I’m laying here frozen to the concrete While the wind makes the water dance And you hold your collar tight The bridge connecting you holds your dawn away And you only find three stars When you look up at the city sky When you keep looking… When you keep looking you find a dozen more A dozen more A dozen more A dozen more… When it all changes back to how it was Just at the beginning When you found your way back to the start The middle was just the rambling part It’s five AM It’s four below Can you hold on to the beauty before
10.
You know who I am I will keep your wind Bring me the water The burning horse has come Don’t lose your head now Remember those flames on her Running across fields from Fires in the night Cast out the last one The Burning Horse Has Fallen Take this and ride to Where my love waits There’s no time to save you from the flame Watch the horses run ablaze Remnants from us won’t remain The Burning Horse Has Come…
11.
Have you noticed The bats fly The coast passing you by Have you noticed Storm clouds in the sky Telling you the time, time now is to fly Have you seen the waves When you witness The one on the shore That’s when you really know Who’s there to join you in the rain And you’ve found the knife to bleed The sun, the sky And you notice we’ve begun to fly
