Worth A Shot
03:41
|

We’re building our castles of sand
Out of seemingly promising plans
The excitement is almost tangible
The typical honeymoon phase
Only lasting a handful of days
We’re leaving behind a naked core
But I’m glad we tried even though
It will mean it’s the end our efforts die
And no one lied
Now we know what to do for next time
If there’s one
And we need to fail sometimes
And make mistakes sometimes
Slip sliding becomes revealing
Foundational layers peeling
Its visible what our hand will bring
Not even a hand worth dealing
Now only a sinking feeling
No longer each other’s everything
But I’m glad we tried even though
It will mean it’s the end our efforts die
And no one lied
Now we know what to do for next time
If there’s one
And we need to fail sometimes
And make mistakes sometimes
Now only a sinking feeling
No longer each other’s everything

Time Away
03:24
|

It came today and I’m not sure
And haven’t been before
Picture what to say
Time away
Higher ground than in the past
Remember how your last
Made it though one day
Time away
Your last holiday
Was more than I wished to stay
All the while lost a smile
It came today and I’m not sure
If I could care no more
Go back to my way
Time away
Higher ground than in the past
Remember how your last
Made it through one day
Time away
Your last holiday
Was more than I wished to stay
All the while lost a smile
It came today and I’m not sure
And haven’t been before
Picture what to say
Time away

Backing Out
02:59
|

If backing out is hard to do
You could always try and see it through
Now’s the time speak your line
It could surprise and really turn out fine
Things we do to keep at bay
Our day-to-day unknown
Magnify the lesser known
Trip you up you think you’ve barely grown
All’s in check and all is well
After all it’s getting hard to tell
Things we do to keep at bay
Our day-to-day unknown
Can’t you see that she loves you
More than most will show
Love to you
Magnify the lesser known
Trip you up you think you’ve barely grown
All’s in check and all is well
After all it’s getting hard to tell
Things we do to keep at bay
Our day-to-day unknown
Can’t you see that she loves you
More than most will show
Love to you

I'd Do More
03:16
|
|||
It’s such a daunting task
To convey or even ask
How do I feel about it all?
It’s easier with hate
To turn out something great
Opposite this time
I don’t hate you
I have never done
The things we do for fun
And I’d do more for you
And I’d get sick for you
And knowing that
It scares me too
If you could read my mind
You’d think that you were blind
A mirror image of you
Is all you’d see
I have never done
The things we do for fun
And I’d do more for you
And I’d get sick for you
And knowing that
It scares me too

Angelo

Some precocious kid
Brought up bright and now a prodigy
That’s what I should have got
A blessed lot
I might have that spark in my eye
But I’m not seeing the fire
Bow and spindling
Not much fun and not my kind of (not sure on this word)
I like the fantasy I’d rather be
In my zone
In monochrome hatching cathedral domes
Don’t’ believe the lead
Grace is grit and not felicity
Years spent in agony ecstasy
I might have that spark in my eye
But I’m not feeding the fire

Grand Design
03:34
|
|||
I’ve got eyes for the good life
But I don’t know gleam from gold
And it’s not fair to the one I wanted
I’m not even fair to myself
An overcautious calculator
With a grand design
When I win what I am after
A little lick of luxury
Not it’s not what I really wanted
It’s just a little short of perfect
It’s just a partial paradise that’s
Hardly worth the time
I’m not close to sure I
Even want what I want
I keep thinking I might
Grow into my dreams
I’m OK with living lonely
I can deal in my ideals
Keep them tucked in a jacket pocked
Take em out when no one’s looking
Tac em to my bedroom ceiling
Constellate the rhymes
I’m not close to sure I
Even want what I want
I keep thinking I might
Grow into my dreams
Am I stuck on an endless snipe hunt?
Never catching on to the joke
Is that satisfaction I see
Peeking through the pines?

Sunday Again
03:50
|
|||
I love your warmth and you love mine too
Could be anyone’s is it true?
Is it the warmth or is it you?
Just cut me in half
Wonder which half will last
Wanna see your autumn gear
Go through the motions of a year
Can’t see it without you here
I want everyday
You say, “let’s get away”
Limbo is best place
To feel the fucking worst
Just imagine what you’d say
From the outside looking in
Can you trust the distance if
It isn’t what you want to hear?
Somehow it’s Sunday again
You still say “someday” but when?
If it’s gone will you want it then?
Maybe there’s still fun
Fight the impulse to run
Limbo is best place
To feel the fucking worst
Just imagine what you’d say
From the outside looking in
Can you trust the distance if
It isn’t what you want to hear?

My Yard
03:14
|
|||
I peered over the fence again today
Looks like they’ve got a sick pool
On the way
Don’t think I could pay
What they had to pay
Wonder if my yard is any good
Do they ever peer over like they could?
Is my grass the greener type they wish they grew?
I can’t help looking over there
I know comparisons aren’t that fair
My yard is what I can control
Maybe we could splurge for
An aboveground pool
But you can’t dive in
Don’t see the earthly use
Are we getting it just to be cool?
I can’t help looking over there
I know comparisons aren’t that fair
My yard is what I can control

Anymore
02:39
|

If time is wasted
Then I should make it
You can’t take mine away from me
Anymore
I wont be punished
For you escaping
I need to get it before I loose
Anymore, anymore, anymore
Try to find the balance always
I can’t help but feel the decay
If time’s not on my side then where?
Time doesn’t feel so fair
I trade my time for your affection
But you’re making out with half of the score
I’ve been faithful, but what’s it to you?
Can’t we work it out for a little bit more?
A bit more, a bit more
Try to find the balance always
I can’t help but feel the decay
If time’s not on my side then where?
Time doesn’t feel so fair

How did you know
That when you showed me
The finer things
My interest would grow
Pulling me to the fruits they bring
Convocations were a treat
And I’d see your smile every time
That we’d meet
To eat with the queen again
And loved ones too
I wouldn’t trade our then
Calling out to you
The love that you give
Forever living long after you
And memories forgive
Each one reminding how
I miss you
Convocations were a treat
And I’d see your smile every time
That we’d meet
To eat with the queen again
And loved ones too
I wouldn’t trade our then
Calling out to you
