If You See Me, Say Yes

Sometimes It Is Right

Sometimes it is right
To have no answer
To sit with myself
And remember

Birthplace

And I only have this one body
But I write and I call when I can
And in the dust of the infinite lobby
I think of you, my friends

And my love is not an object
That rusts with lack of use
Suited perfectly for its purpose
As the day I gave it to you

It is a fresh page
It is a sharp knife
It is a cold call
It is an alibi

You are a universe of faces
Sometimes I go it alone
Fill my arms with what I can carry
And my body is my home

And if I lock on
To a strange face
I see an ancient sun
I see my birthplace

And forgive me for my silence
I forget the follow through
And any lie I ever told you
Was to seek a better truth

You were the suitcase I never unpacked
I am a green shirt that never left your back
We live in black and white on a telephone pole
I can read the letters, eyes closed

The Joke

The young, the old, the dead
And you and I presently traveling west
Chasing the sun
See where once it was
It will be again

And I have lived a charmed life
The hand of fate rests on my shoulder
Still I get the joke
Try to make you laugh
It speaks for itself

The child I’ll never have
The stranger on the sidewalk
All who’ve ever lived
Now are waking up
To wish us luck

Everything is Happening Today

I wake up
My eyes are playing tricks on me
And through the dust
So much of my life has already come to be

So I watch the sun go up
And I watch the sun go down
And the horizon hovering like a missing piece
That can never be found

And as the seasons lie in wait
Like a secret you already know
Winter is behind us now
It is ahead of us also

And everything that ever was is happening today
Everything I’ve ever done has happened in the wrong way
Pull the thread and draw the line to find time in a different place
Everything that ever was is happening today

And I believe
That you could love me
Just because
But I remain as fragile as I ever was

So if here is really there
And if you are really mine
My fear, it is a circle
My joy, it is the infinite line

But the limits of words were with us
Since we learned to talk
So I give my longing a name
And I hold its hand and take a walk

And everything that ever was is happening today
Everything I’ve ever done has happened in the wrong way
Pull the thread and draw the line to find time in a different place
Everything that ever was is happening today

Semaphore

If simple habit had a tale to tell
And if the wires could reveal themselves
We could begin to trace the ins and outs
The horizon of our length

As if the force of it can be controlled
As if sight is an object we can hold
Our voices float above the depths of it
What we cannot permeate

Come to my door
Won’t you liven me up with color
Put your pen and paper away
I have no need for you to guess my age

I can tie my own laces
Find the solace I seek in other places
But I cannot need you more
Too far gone for the semaphore

Too far gone for the semaphore
Too far gone for the semaphore
Too far gone for the semaphore
Too far gone for the semaphore

The sight of red’s a cause for new alarm
The sound I make can only go so far
Today the only thing that I can do
Is wait for you

And in this lingering uncertainty
The voice across the waves agrees with me
“We pay a very high price to be free
And I wonder if it’s enough?”

Come to my door
Won’t you liven me up with color
Put your pen and paper away
I have no need for you to guess my age

I can tie my own laces
Find the solace I seek in other places
But I cannot need you more
Too far gone for the semaphore

Too far gone for the semaphore
Too far gone for the semaphore
Too far gone for the semaphore
Too far gone for the semaphore

Too far gone for the semaphore
Too far gone for the semaphore
Too far gone for the semaphore
Too far gone for the semaphore

Too far gone for the semaphore
Too far gone for the semaphore
Too far gone for the semaphore
Too far gone for the semaphore

And if the force of it can be revealed
We are beholden to it even still
What we cannot keep and we cannot kill
What we cannot communicate

It is the quiet voice that says it best
There is no certainty to preciousness
We have a friend who holds us in his grasp
And someday he’ll be gone

Ida Glow

Ida Glow
I’ve been waiting for it
Squint your eyes through the snow

Adequate
Still the mind is turnkey
I’ll come in on tiptoe

I am a writer
I am a liar
Oh how you know me

Ida Glow
Always overhanded
Stumbling forward fold

Substantial
It’s a sorry habit
Hurry out to see me go

I am a writer
I am a liar
Oh how you know me

Flight

She is spinning like a planet
She is never quite at ease
I am drawn to the destruction
Even as I fear release
But no matter how we wander
It’s the purpose of the fact
I can alter my behavior
But I cannot take it back
If I alter my behavior
To look and not to touch
To live as a creator
And the face you’ve come to trust
An imaginary answer
Like a prick under the skin
Like the scratch of an adventure
As it’s begging to come in

Flight
For the right to your life
For the right to the lightness you’ve found
Flight
For the need to come down
Flight
For the right to your life to depart from the will of the earthbound
Flight
You will touch the ground

It is cold above the cloud-line
And my hands are knuckled white
I am planning my reaction
When I fix you in my sight
If we do not plummet earthwards
Or burn up in the sun
When my feet are on the ground again
And I feel what I have done
Or perhaps an anticlimax
With nothing to discuss
An unspoken understanding
Dissipated wanderlust
With a story so specific
That you know it can’t be true
I will alter my behavior
I will fix myself to you

Flight
For the right to your life
For the right to the lightness you’ve found
Flight
For the need to come down
Flight
For the right to your life to depart from the will of the earthbound
Flight
You will touch the ground

Apparition

Even in my mind
I know what I saw
It was, it was, it was
Indescribable

All its hair was white
Though its face was young
It was, it was, it was
Sticking out its tongue

It was all apparition

So if you just were there
If you saw it through
I know, I know, I know
You would see it too

So take me at my word
All its hair was white
Help me, help me, help me
Fall asleep tonight

It was all apparition

Given/Electric Life

You will follow the light of electric life
And never know his name
And suffering gladly to catch a glimpse
Be left alone to wait

You will give up your peace just to find someone
Who’s the spitting image of you
You could mirror the motion of their belief
And never feel as true

'Cause it is given just to be taken away
To be taken away, away again
Oh you are living just to be taken away
To be taken away, away again

I’m getting better as I grow older
But nobody wants to meet me there
Afraid to be seen as I see myself
Even more to be seen as I really am

I am learning the ways to stop counting days
To distract myself with play
Oh, but I admit I feel every minute
And I know the hour, the day

'Cause it is given just to be taken away
To be taken away, away again
We are living just to be taken away
To be taken away, away again

Do you believe it can be done
And love is life and life is long
Are you the one am I the one
Do you believe it can be done

Minor Justice

I saw a life between the two of us
Each moment’s notice by machine
Imagine isolation, blurring of its edges
I am most alone when I fail to see

A minor justice
Speak free
Still courage
Fight for me

A momentary smile across your eyes
So this force of habit still can thrill
And if it is your wish that we no longer speak of it
I will love the lie that keeps us still

In minor justice
Sweet release
Tiny pleasures
Human need

What do you dream of
Every morning, to forget my dreams
I separate
I speak the language
I prepare my response

And as I feel myself dissolve
I remember
This is what I dreamed of
A cycle that repeats
Water, evaporating into air
Becoming the sky

So I can light a match
But I can’t tell you what fire is made of
And if we wait for an answer
We will be waiting for a very long time

So what I wish for you
I wish for all of us
We seem to be awake
But we are dreaming
We seem to be many
But we are not

You, The Vatican

So I shot the light
And the light went out
Dark, an early reminder
An ordinary night
I couldn’t see you
I couldn’t see at all

Any further proof only speaks to truth
Hold, commanding a dawning
Of an ordinary life
I couldn’t free you
I barely freed myself

Let me find you
I will hold you through
Earthly nature
Lights out

It could be in a wreck when you least expect
Laughing all of the way down
And you, The Vatican
You the destroyer
You the destroyed

An intelligent mind only hangs itself
For all its perfect distraction
From immediate delight
There for the taking
Casting a different light

Let me find you
I will hold you through
Second nature
Slight

Let me find you
I will hold you through
Fast approaching
Lights out

…To Have No Answer

What you say you are, you are
What you will be, you will be
Where you will go, it will be crowded
You will fight for your place
Like the rest of us

It was cold, I was leaving you there
You were watching the lights disappear
I believe you were waving your arms
Memory only tells us so much

Sometimes it is right
To have no answer
To sit with myself
And remember

Goodbye
Goodbye
Goodbye
Goodbye...

Head of Roses

2 Heads

How can I explain myself
I have two heads inside my mouth
Four eyes crying as they laugh
And both will waste away by half
It's not that I'm afraid of it
A feast at every table

How could I
How could I have all that

I can see it all now
The world beyond my knowing
Bodies that I drag around
While going through the motions
Devoid of every instinct
The spirit is not willing

I'll go down
I'll go down, down with them

I the heat that would not rise
The bird that would not call
Stutter, stand to meet your fate
Flying as you fall

Flying
Flying as you fall

Price of Blue

I'm waking up from a dream
I can feel but I can’t see
I'm suffocating the spark
Of divine you made in me
But you were more than the grain of sand
That made the pearl
Two fingers on the dial

And when you think of beauty I'll be there
Alone behind the eye of your electric stare
Reflections in your mirror I’ve become
Alone with you, the price of blue
Alone with you, the price of blue

So you can keep to yourself
With the bеst of everything
And I can wander thе wreck
Amazed and shivering
But who wouldn't take something
For nothing
For nothing and run
Two pages into one
You might also like

And when you find your wisdom, I'll be gone
The comfort of the proof of what was wrong
So look me in the eye as long as you can stand
Alone with you, the price of blue
Alone with you, the price of blue

Two

I wanna be good
And I want to mean it
I want to put your hands over my doubting eyes
And finally see it

My spirit is dragging
It's been sleeping enough
I remember what it feels like when it's open
Wanna wake it up

Can I be one
Can we be two
Can I be for myself
Still be still with you
Is it all for fun
Is it just brand new
Little life in one
But the ways are two
But the ways are two

I wanna be trusted
I am not a threat
But I see the way they look at me
When I try to be like the men
And they're not wrong to see it
And I'm not wrong to try
And we're all just wearing bodies
Like a costume 'til we die

Can I be one
Can we be two
Can I be for myself
Still be still with you
Is it all for fun
Is it just brand new
Little life in one
Can I be one
Can we be two
Can I be for myself
Still be still with you
Is it all for fun
Is it just brand new
Little life in one

But the ways are two
But the ways are two
But the ways are two
But the ways are two

Hard Way

When I tried to love
It was just a song
Something I could not say
Couldn't call it off
Couldn't make it last
So, I took the hard way

Something that you said
I could not forget
Set it into motion
Hiding as a glow
Quiet and so slow
Shattered my illusion

If I only knew
Half as much as you
I would be amazing, hazy

If I stop to be
Long enough to see
The life and death of one day
Heavy in my heart
Honey in my head
When I took the hard way

If I lost your hand
I know I could stand
Without your protection
Just because I know
Doesn't mean I'll go
It would be the hard way

Walking

Chasing after the morning
Hearing some kind of call
Are we twenty miles from nothing here
Are we anywhere at all
Nothing on the horizon
Ticking time on the clock
We are dead in the water
We are walking just to walk
We are dead in the water
We are walking just to walk

Peculiar combination of hands and eyes and hair
And the glow of recognition
And an accidental stare
I can't make sense of the purposе
If only to go without
Not to run my hands around it
Put my fingers in its mouth
Can I run my hands around it
Put my fingers in your mouth

We arе telling a story
Believable by day
But I find it unconvincing
When I feel this far away
I know there are other lives
And things I'll go without

But if I ever let it cross my mind
All I see are open mouths
If I ever let it cross my mind
All I see are open mouths

I think I can rest easy
Knowing what could be
If the present is decided
Then my life belongs to me
Work, it keeps me busy
Longing is my friend
Alone again, alone again
My time, it is my own again
Alone again, alone again
My time, it is my own again

Lightning

Summer storm
Sky looks like hailing
And I'm green, too
With too many days
Not knowing you
Trying to walk it back
I watch the lightning
But I can't sing like that

And if you dream
Who is it that you see
'Cause it isn't me
When you dressed me in
A different skin
I forgot who I am
I watched it happen
But I can't understand

And I found out
Freedom is empty
When it's all you have
With no common love
To take it from
Out of my open hand
I want the lightning
But I can't live like that

One More Hour

When I was younger
I was so sure
Always suspicious
Of an easy cure
Now I'll never get those hours back
But the first chance I get
I'll be running

And I could do anything
But I wander in the world of you
Can I forgive myself
For falling back into it
I'm paying attention now
I know there's nothing for it
But if I could have anything
I'd take one more hour now

So, what is beauty
In a world like this
Where nothing is simple
And everything is
Now I put it back
Like you told me to
But believing is hard
I still do

And I could do anything
But I wander in the world of you
Can I forgive myself
For falling back into it
I'm paying attention now
I know there's nothing for it
But if I could have anything
I'd take one more hour
And I could do anything
But I wander in the world of you
Can I forgive myself
For falling back into it
I'm paying attention now
I know there's nothing for it
But if I could have anything
I'd take one more hour now

No Question

Beautiful
Am I not
Powerful
Am I not

So you say
I was the one
But I'm just
The way I was

And you called my name
And I came
How
There is no question

And they both
Can't be true
Still I do
See God in you

In the rays
Constantly
In the maze
You laid for me

And I called your name
You had gone
Even now
There is no question

Awake for the Sunrise

I didn't want to be awake for the sunrise
But my heart wouldn't let me rest
I didn't want to see the light of the morning
With an aching in my chest

So does fire beget fire
As a warning, as a test
I only wanted to know you better
I only thought that I knew you best

I didn't think I was a terrible liar
But I am when I need it most
Making a sorry attempt at compersion
With a hand halfway down my throat

So does life carry forth
If the station is remote
Hope is still keeping my head above water
'Til the moment before I choke

Therе is a future where wе're resting easy
On the other side of us
But I'd rather feel the full wrath of destruction
Than remember the things I've done

I gave up on that life
As I gave myself to you
And I deserve it, the very worst of it
I deserve it, I know I do
And I deserve it, the very worst of it
I deserve it, I know I do

Head of Roses

I have never
Known to travel
By the compass
The names of stars
I have never
Meant to travel
Far from places
Where you are

Fear of the world
Head of roses
Sorry for yours
And for mine
Free of the world
Head of roses
Leave me to learn
Love is time

I was held by
Seven angels
Told me I was
Free to go
I can't help you
See the meaning
I can't tell you
What I don't know

Fear of the world
Head of rosеs
Sorry for yours
And for mine
Free of the world
Head of rosеs
Leave me to learn
Love is time
Fear of the world
Head of roses
You'll never see
How I cried
Free of the world
Head of roses
Leave me to learn
Love is time 

The Life You Save

Afraid

I did not enter this world afraid
And I refuse to leave it this way
I did not enter this world alone
A gasp splitting the silence crying, essence and bone

I had to grow, so I grew
I didn't mean for it to take me so far gone from you
I made you scared when I cried
All I wanted was a witness
But I know that you tried

I did not enter this world for you
But I saw if I could carry it
You would carry me too
I was not born to be free
The agony of memory, the long arc of release

And I can't sing to you now
I tried to steal you from your suffering
But I didn't know how
I had to know what to do
I made a shelter for your body
But it wasn't home for you

I did not enter this world afraid
And I refuse to leave it that way
I did not enter this world afraid
And I refuse to leave it that way
I did not enter this world afraid
And I refuse to leave it

And I refuse to leave it
And I refuse to leave it
And I refuse to leave it

Long After Midnight

All the money I gave to you
I know I will never get it back
Don’t be sad and don’t be sorry
I don’t care about the money like that
And when I say I don’t care about the money
I mean you know I wouldn’t let you starve
You know I couldn’t let that happen
Please take the keys to my car

You say you can’t afford your medication
Too many hoops they’re gonna put you through
You can’t waste another moment
Not for the life of you
I know the rules but I ignore them
I think I’m good enough to pull this off
You be hell and I’ll be hеaven
I’ll be your shot in the dark

I livе my life among the lucky ones
When things are bad I never let them know
When you come from where I come from
There’s only so far you can go
And when we’re sitting trapped in silence
And I can tell I’m not who you want me to be
To be honest it would break you
Only to lie would break me
People say it’s not my problem
They say that actions have a consequence
If you call me I would answer
I’m the last line of defense

100 Knives

(Mirah - You Think It’s Like This... But Really It’s Like This)

You were trying to kill me
With a hundred knives
You were trying to kill me
In my heart one hundred times

Tell me you were angry
That's why you said that
That's why you said that

I know you're there
I wish you'd talk
Should I stay on
Or should I get off
Roll over to me
Roll over
Roll over to me
Roll over

But there is nothing I'd rather do
Than spend all day in the sack with you
I want to mess up my sheets with you
There is nothing I'd rather do

You were trying to kill me
With a hundred knives
That was not the question
I thought you had insidе

I know you're there
I wish you'd talk
Should I stay on
Or should I gеt off
Roll over to me
Roll over
Roll over to me
Roll over

But there is nothing I'd rather do
Than spend all day in the sack with you
I want to mess up my sheets with you
There is nothing I'd rather do 

Again (For the First Time)

(Like So Much Desire EP)

If you lose your only light
You might be sleeping alone
A little longer
If you give your heart to me
You might live to see
The day it is no more

But I believe
Will you believe with me

I was afraid to take
But now I’m reckless with my love
My grief two sides of everyone
Afraid you made me wise
And it is happening again
For the first time

And if I flee
Will you be free with me

I only want to say
You don’t have to carry it alone
Any longer
To give more than I take
If need will break
Deep love is stronger

And if I fade
Will you still speak to me
If I believe
Will you believe with me 

 Amelia

(Head of Roses - Phantom Limb / Joni Mitchell Cover)

I was driving across the burning desert when I spotted six jet planes
Leaving six white vapor trails across the bleak terrain
It was the hexagram of the Heavens, it was the strings of my guitar
Amelia, it was just a false alarm

The drone of flying engines, is a song so wild and blue
It scrambles time and seasons, if it gets through to you
Then your life becomes a travelogue of picture-postcard charms
Oh, Amelia, it was just a false alarm

People will tell you where they′ve gone, they'll tell you where to go
′Til you get there yourself, you never really know
Where some have found their paradise, others just come to harm
Oh, Amelia, it was just a false alarm

I wish that he was here tonight, it's so hard to obey
His sad request of me to kindly stay away
So this is how I hide the hurt
As the road leads, cursed and charmed
I tell Amelia, it was just a false alarm

A ghost of aviation, she was swallowed by the sky
Or by the sea, like me, she had a dream to fly
Like Icarus ascending on beautiful foolish arms
Amelia, it was just a false alarm

Maybe I've never really loved, I guess that is the truth
I′ve spent my whole life in clouds at icy altitudes
And looking down on everyone, I crashed into his arms
Oh, Amelia, it was just a false alarm

I pulled into the Cactus Tree Motel to shower off the dust
And I slept on strange pillows of my wanderlust
I dreamed of 747s over geometric farms
Dreams, Amelia, dreams and false alarms 

Daffadowndilly

(Tōth Featuring Flock of Dimes)

Thank you for making everything
Totally meaningless, beautiful narcissus
I too am just a daffodil
Slave to the breezes
Blow me to pieces

'Til I am nothing
What is the worst you could do to me?
Everything hurts, but I can still breathe
Daffadowndilly, I miss the spring

I see you in my reflection
Your petals are windswept
Light blue complexion
And the sun burns
Through the leaves you left for me
I stare at the embers
Forget to remember

'Til I am nothing (I am nothing, I am not)
So just do the worst you could do to me (Do the worst that you could do)
Everything hurts but I’m still growing (Everything hurts)
Oh daffadowndilly, I miss your spring

Winds that come
Blow me to pieces

'Til I am nothing (I am nothing, I am not)
What is the worst you could do to me? (Do the worst that you could do)
Everything hurts but I can still breathe (Everything hurts)
Daffadowndilly, won't you finish me
I'm still going (I am still going on)
Just do the worst you could do to me (Do the worst that you could do)
Everything hurts (Everything hurts)
Daffadowndilly, I miss your spring (Daffadowndilly, I)
Daffadowndilly, I miss your spring (Daffadowndilly, I)

Daffadowndilly, I
Oh yeah, come on now and finish me 

Day One

(Bon Iver Featuring ​Dijon & Flock of Dimes)

Been a long while now coming up
Thought we were past it, thought we'd patched it up
Thought the title had passed hands
Thought we'd had enough
But the sun's gonna go ahead and tag right up
And we don't understand what we're standing on
And we sure come in blind
With our timing

So I've culled what I can't tame
I have taken all that I can take
And it got bad enough
I thought that I would leave

Well, I wish you could take that right off
All that shit that rips you right up
Then you'd know that we'd been taught all this from day one
From day one

Same old town and you're parsing through
Signs of live and die for you
There's a million ways you're falling through
The cost of your mind
And some may say that you lack the stuff
And you burn it down and clack your cuffs
But you may have to toughen up
While unlearning that lie

I'll go find the tap wire
I'll go put the pathfinder on waltz

Well, can I get a rewind?
Just this once, if you don't mind
I don't know who I am without ya
'Cause I feel a wild one now comin' on
I told you to be patient, I swore that I was wrong
So why can't we both just now get to understand?
From day one

All this was dry land
Yes, you have just always had your band
But you get sad enough because it's all you seek

(Oh, hop on, it'll all be gone)
You don't have to take so very long
And you can't have it for a song
And that's why I have rattled on
From day one
From day one 

Go With Good

(Head of Roses - Phantom Limb)

Someday
We came
???

Let go
Give up
An impossible place

Fragile
Tiptoe
Out into the road

???
???

But did you really think it'd go, think it'd go so slow
Did you really think the time could be ours to use
Did you try ??? over to your ear
And are you still tryin' to hold them, are you tryin' to be still

If I'm starin' at the distance, at the ???
I can only stand the air and the aftermath
And I didn't wanna vanish, but I went so long
I didn't wanna go

And I believe that there is more to this than we can see
I do believe we belive we know the reason that brought you here to me
And I believe let me love you in the only way you could
I choose to go with that
I choose to go with good

And I believe that there is more to this than we can see
I do believe we belive we know the reason that brought you here to me
And I believe let me love you in the only way you could
I choose to go with that
I choose to go with good

And yeah, I do believe
And I believe
I do believe
And yeah, I believe 

It Just Goes On

(Head of Roses - Phantom Limb)

If I knew your mother
If I loved your friends
If I promised I would never
Ask for anything again

If it never started
It doesn't have to end
It just goes on

If my body was smaller
And easier to hold
If I was one instead of another
Someone calculated and cold

But what's another story
If a story isn't told
It just goes on

Nothing I do
Would matter to you
See, I can't
If you don't want me, ??? I still am

If I had an attitude
If I hadn't been so kind
If I hadn't written letters
Taken too much of your time

Never was a circle
Isn't even a line
It just goes on

It just goes on 

Like So Much Desire

(Like So Much Desire EP)

I am not one
In a long line of others
I was a gasp
Spit out from their mouths
With no voice
I would be just like them
Giving it all away
Like so much desire

See, she is young
With a child's body
And a new name
To turn in their mouths
And I was like her
Though I didn't know then
Now I watch it fall away
Like so much desire

Out for a drive
Windows half open
I hear the sirens
Before I can see them
It is so like me
To dream of better places
Losing the old for the new
Like so much desire
Like so much desire 

Lotta Love

(Helado Negro Featuring Flock of Dimes)

It's gonna take a lotta love (Lotta love)
To change the way things are
It's gonna take a lotta love (Lotta love)
Or we won't get too far

So if you look in my direction
And we don't see eye to eye
My heart needs protection
And so do I, I

It's gonna take a lotta love (Lotta love)
To get us through the night
It's gonna take a lotta love (Lotta love)
To make things work out right

So if you're out there waiting
I hope you show up soon
'Cause my head needs relating
Not solitude

Got a lotta love
Got a lotta love

It's gonna take a lotta love (Lotta love)
To change the way things are
It's gonna take a lotta love (Lotta love)
Or we won't get too far 

Potential

(Our First 100 Days)

Tears before the window
And I could not believe my eyes
A single life through, splitting
Into a thousand rays of light
Before my knees were bloody
From jumping free from palms on high
Standing three feet seven inches
I did believe that I could fly

And if this is my true home
And we are near its light
I shouldn't terrify you
Standing with the key
Inside the lock
To me, that is potential

And ashamed of being fearful
Although the world has shown you how
But fear could never keep you there
And it will not hold you now
Little baby brother
Behind the ???
And I cannot calm my quaking body
Even though I know he's there

And if this is your answer
And even if it's not
Remember energy
Can travel from
A single forceful spot
To me, that is potential 

Pure Love

Oh my father
I don’t want to be blessed anymore
If you give it to me I will take it
I keep on wanting more
And it’s so lonely here
Thinking only of myself
So now just cut me off, cut me off
I just wanna get well
When I had nothing
It wasn’t enough
When I had everything
It was too much
I don’t wanna be stuck still staring at the way that it was
I just want a pure love
Oh my lover
I don’t know how to make a new plan
I keep dreaming of a better moment
Anywhere but where I am
And it’s so uninspired
And it still feels so wrong
So now just wake me up, wake me up
I just wanna movе on
When we werе nothing
It wasn’t enough
And when we had everything
It was too much
I don’t wanna be stuck still staring at the way that it was
Just want a pure love
Let me be hungry
More than enough
Let me be lonely
Learning to love
Let me be stuck still staring at the one that I want
Pure love 

Spring in Winter

(Like So Much Desire EP)

Lying out beside myself
Sixty-five, December twelfth
I keep you warm

A smell of rain, the ghost of spring
A skip in time, an offering
For you I sing

Is spring in winter
Is fear in fall
You were never mine
Hellbent with a curious mind
Hold on
I keep you warm

They blink their eyes, they bare their arms
Reintroduce their skin to sun
And I am mine

And all the birds have ventured out
To bow their heads and kiss the ground
Their feathered down

It's spring in winter
It's fear in fall
It was never mine
Only the stones of the truest are gone
Fall, now winter
I'm not in love 

Thank You Friends and Strangers

(Like So Much Desire EP)

Today I talked to my friend Sarah
On the wall close to my house
We talked about how strange the feeling
To take my insides and put them out

Thank you friends and strangers
For your gentleness with me
It is a gift that keeps me floating
Towards a future I can’t see 

The Sisters

When you are seized by a force that you do not know
It was summer for us, and then it was snow
And what a sight for your eyes to fall upon
Oh, the gift of years, for your frail heart to lean on

Hush, oh hush
Talk is dangerous
This, even this
I believe in all of it

We're alive, so we're ending all the time
It is watching above and waiting behind
So I search for myself in your absence
To recall—though it is small—it is still progress

Hush, oh hush
Life is dangerous
When we end
All the sisters play pretend

Hush, oh hush
Life is dangerous
When we end
All the sisters play pretend

Hush, oh hush
Life is dangerous
When we end
All the sisters play pretend

All the sisters 

The Weakness in Me

(Head of Roses - Phantom Limb / Joan Armatrading ‧Cover)

I'm not the kind of person who falls in and quickly out of love
But to you I gave my affection right from the start
I have a lover who loves me, how could I break such a heart
Yet still you get my attention

Why do you come here
When you know I've got troubles enough
Why do you call me
When you know I can't answer the phone

Make me lie when I don't want to
And make someone else some kind of unknowing fool
You make me stay when I should not
Are you so strong or is all the weakness in me

Why do you come here
And pretend to be just passing by
But I need to see you
And I need to hold you, tightly

Feeling guilty and worried
Waking from tormented sleep
This old love has me bound
But the new love cuts deep

If I choose now, I'll lose out
One of you has to fall
And I need you, and you

Why do you come here
When you know I've got troubles enough
Why do you call me
When you know I can't answer the phone

Make me lie when I don't want to
And make someone else some kind of unknowing fool
You make me stay when I should not
Are you so strong or is all the weakness in me

Why do you come here
And pretend to be just passing by
But I need to see you
And I need to hold you, tightly

Thirsty

(Tōth Featuring Flock of Dimes)

The first time we met you were a friend of mine
Did I know you in another life?
You are the only one of your kind
You’re the only one that blows my mind
And when you hold my hand I float into a cloud of nines
I wanna get to know you really bad
This is the kinda water I could swim around until I die
And from the water as the tides will rise higher
All the ways in which you’re melting at this heart of mine
From water we come to water we’ll go

But I’m still thirsty

There’s an ocean in your hеad I think it never ends
Your a pеrson with the softest bends
I like the way they flow with the tides
Like the pool inside your endless eyes
Every phase of you a mirror to the moon and I
I wanna lose myself in this abyss
This is the kinda water I could swim around until I swish
And tho the water comes and goes oh so quickly
You come back another wave into infinity
From water we come to water we’ll go

But I’m still thirsty
(Don’t be so thirsty)
Yeah I’m still thirsty
(You’ll always get what you need)
I’m still thirsty
(You’re gonna get what you need)

After all this time I still want outta my head
Sometimes I wonder if i'm better of dead
All the things that my mother said
It would take a lotta novocain
To relieve the pain of existential appetite
That’s why I wanna see you every night
This is the kinda water i could swim around in till I die
From water we come to water we'll go

But I’m still thirsty
(Don’t be so thirsty)
Yeah I’m still thirsty
(You’ll always get what you need)
I’m still thirsty
(You’re gonna get what you need) 

(This Is Why) I Can’t Wear White

This is why I can't see
Struck about, walks with me
Struck a mess, once for all
I forget I'm on the bar

I'm by myself
I just wanna be held with the palm of your hand
See me ready to explain my love
And tell me who I'm with
Your faith, and you know me, you know
I'm by myself
I just wanna be held with the palm of your hand
See me ready to explain my love
And tell me who I'm with
Your faith and you know me, you know, you know

This is why I can't wear white
In our day, in our night
Where we'd stay sticks around
Often time, heard the crowd, but, oh

I'm by myself
I just wanna be held with the palm of your hand
See me ready to explain my love
And tell me who I'm with
Your faith, and you know me, you know
I'm by myself
I just wanna be held with the palm of your hand
See me ready to explain my love
And tell me who I'm with
Your faith and you know me, you know, you know 

Through Me

(Head of Roses - Phantom Limb)

I need wine
I need ???
I need to come back ???
Seven times a night
Overwhelm me
With a choice
I can chase it ???
Running backwards ???
'Til I hear your voice

It is hard
To get started
It is wrong
To go back
Everybody ???
Living through me
If you let me

It is hard
To get started
It is wrong
To go back
Everybody ???
Living through me
If you let me

It is hard
To get started
It is wrong
To go back
Everybody ???
Living through me
If you let me 

Time

This the kind of night
That makes me talk too much
Makes me tell my mind
Makes me lose my touch

This the kind of eyes that
Make me miss my step
What i think i know
Make me think again

And you win again
Though i said it right
It was meaningless
With its heart pulled out
Just a walking bird
On the steady ground
Though it could have gone
It was not allowed

It is time to begin
It is time, it is when
It is time
It is with you

I don't know how i see
How I know what will be
How I know but i do

How did we get here
If there was any doubt
For the way it feels
Just to lay around

Isn't there a word
For what we'rе going through
And is it your god
Is it my god too

I gave everything
It was not еnough
So i twist the knife
And i waste my love
And the only gift
Shelter the attack
With the life that's left
I can give it back

It is time still ahead
It is time that is left
It is time it is for you

You can go where you need
To become what you know
That you are
And i see you
It is time to begin
It is time, it is when
It is time
It is for you

Now I know, now i see
How I know what will be
How I know
Oh I do 

When the Body Does Not

(Like So Much Desire EP)

And it doesn’t take much
To make me cry
You know why
And it doesn’t take much
To pull me in
Back to the fire again

So life goes on without you
And the world goes on without us
And the feeling remains
When the body does not

And it used to take so much
To break through
To make me feel something new
Had all that I needed
I couldn’t enjoy it
Eyes still fixed on the void

So life goes on without you
And the world goes on without us
And the feeling remains
When the body does not 

Wonder

(Head of Roses - Phantom Limb)

Real woman
Hungry dog hiding
Demon
Seeking
Dangerous
Arms wide open
Asking
Omniscient

There's your beauty, don't look at it
Know that I will wonder
You took part in ways that float across the water
There's your beauty, don't look at it
Know that I will wonder

Knowing
Nothing
Saying nothing
Silly
Habits
Early
Morning
Learning drastic gets me
Nothing

There's your beauty, don't look at it
Know that I will wonder
You took part in ways that float across the water

There's your beauty, don't look at it
Know that I will wonder
Let your beauty look right at me
You know I will wonder
You took part in ways that refuse to give the answer

There's your beauty, don't look at it
Know that I will wonder
