So Long

It gets so tangled,
so muddled up
this story I've spun,
and twisted and tied
How much is real
or idealized?
Life's too short for
All this longing for
so long
Oh no, not again
Got to get out of my head
Beginning, middle, and end
I won't buy in, man
I think I'm lost
or soon to be
I wandered so far
Wondered aimlessly
about where you are now
and what you do
when you roll out of bed
in the afternoon
I hope alone
Oh no, not again
Got to get out of my head
Beginning, middle, and end
I won't buy in, man

Solstice

When the hell did the days start getting shorter?
The air is getting colder, I guess summer is over
I wish we could have spent more of it together
But I know your heart is with the autumn weather
And I guess it's true
That it rains like this in the summer too
And I know you're right
About the stars washed out by the city light
And I know that the cold
Doesn't stand a chance against these layers
But I still find
That on days like this I miss the warmer nights
You are the sunset on the longest day of the year
You are the sudden drop in pressure right before a summer storm
You are the stars above when the midnight sky clear
You are the summer air
And you keep me warm
So I'll keep making plans to see the mountains up north
Anything to keep my mind and eyes looking forward
But I won't spend my days always wishing away the cold
That's a hell of way to wish for getting old
And I know it's the same sun in November
As the one that paints the sky on June 21st
You are the sunset on the longest day of the year
You are the sudden drop in pressure right before a summer storm
You are the stars above when the midnight sky clear
You are the summer air
And you keep me warm
So I'll spend the winter
Writing songs and getting better
The air ain't so bitter
With wool socks and boxy sweaters
And all of my best friends
Huddled closely all together
In a cabin up in Maine, Vermont, or wherever
You are the sunset on the longest day of the year
You are the sudden drop in pressure right before a summer storm
You are the stars above when the midnight sky clear
You are the summer air
And you keep me warm

Have the grace
to make no movement
So I chase
on your behalf
When you walked passed,
I saw the future
So I made plans
for nothing in particular
A lighthouse does the same job
if you just burn it down
Forget the subtle warning
Leave the ashes on the ground
If I count without a sound,
at 10, will you still be around?
Next time (at least that's what you say),
I'll run
I promise I won't wait up
At split ends,
we'll split the living
No falling in, so no crawling out
When you sat down,
I said "I'm not leaving
'cause it's not here,
and the misery's endearing"
A lighthouse does the same job
if you just burn it down
Forget the subtle warning
Leave the ashes on the ground
If I count without a sound,
at 10, will you still be around?
Next time (at least that's what you say),
I'll run
I promise I won't wait up
If I count without a sound,
at 10, will you still be around?
Next time (at least that's what you said),
I'll run
I promise I won't wait up

Spit

You liked it when you could see my back
No turning behind, no plan of attack
If you could only see me now
If you fed me a lie, I'd spit it right out
I am the sweetest
I'll be your first escape
So don't ask for help this time
I'll pull my hand away
You shared your scars just to bleed me dry
I shed no tears, but at least I tried
And when the silence raised the alarm
You said, "Honey, no foul, no harm"
I am the sweetest
I'll be your worst escape
So don't ask for help this time
I'll pull my hand away

Hundred Times

There's a first time for everything
and this is the first time
I've made the same mistake one hundred times
There's a first time for everything
and this is the last time
that I'll fuck it up
My time: beyond measure
I'm dumb, but you know better
It's fine, you say you really like that
By now, you said I should've known
to sit back and bite my tongue
Nice try! You know it's always bleeding
Don't go out without a bandage
Come here, I'll put it on your head
'cause there's a first time for everything
and this is the first time
I've made the same mistake one hundred times
There's a first time for everything
and this is the last time
that I'll fuck it up
There's a first time for everything
and this is the first time
I've made the same mistake one hundred times
There's a first time for everything
and this is the first time
I've made the same mistake one hundred times
There's a first time for everything
and this is the first time
I've made the same mistake one hundred times
There's a first time for everything
There's a first time for everything
There's a first time for everything
and this is the last time
that I'll mess it
that I'll screw it
that I'll fuck it up

Giving choked up lessons
on how you should behave
There's innocence that lingers
somehow, somewhere, some way
So what did you do?
So what did you do?
Try, steal, beg, and lie
I'll do whatever it takes
to make me feel so small
I held my breath that you held
in your arms
You don't phase me
'cause you amaze me
Looking up and upwards
until it's all face down
The higher you get,
the closer to
oh god! you fell
And landed on both
You'll land on both feet
Or try
Steal, beg, and lie
I'll do whatever it takes
to make me feel so small
I held my breath that you held
in your arms
You don't phase me
'cause you amaze me
