Weathered Alabaster Part Two (1)
I'm holding on another moment... firehose a daystreaming down below.
Wondering where all that time went... grasping at dreams cutting through the glow.
The weather seemed identical... to the morning we hopped aboard that train.
My tether's minimally inimical... as if unmooring’s something I could explain.
And I, went for a ride,
Seasons pulling on our bones... colors draining back into the earth.
Trudging crooked corn stalks... dirt’s getting sturdy in sporadic bursts.
I found it written on the pebbles... one dawn babbling directions in the stream.
Heard among the troubled trebles... skipped a stone across the bank so clean.
And I, went for a ride,
My heel broke off a splinter... climbing boards abandoned years ago.
A ghost town turning to the winter... the screen doors banging softly in the snow.
A stray dog barked a greeting... from a crusty woodpile in a parking lot.
An image that was so fleeting... billboard bird nests marking it with a knot.
And I, went for a ride,
Always we were alright... no matter what the news would have us know.
Though you gave me quite a fright... in tatters at pews lit by candle glow.
Frantic fractured friendships... hold a lifeline to a wayward past.
Shoulders sagging over bent hips... a flag sadly sailing at half mast.
And I, went for a ride,
A little nipped around the edges... a little bit less and a little more.
I escaped despite my pledges... amid the mess with zest galore.
I finally got an alibi... a good excuse to set some roots down.
But no matter how I try... I keep on heading to the next town.
And I, went for a ride,
Tried to glide, through this life,
I'll end at the beginning.

Heavy Day (1)
มุมมอง 1119 ชั่วโมงที่ผ่านมา
It was a heavy day, to be feeling this way, It was a heavy day, to see you walking away. And I wish you, I wish you well. And I wish you, I wish you well. Beyond any sense of reason. Can't find any way to please you. Na na... Na na... It was a heavy day, when our love went astray, It was a heavy day, to be lying awake, And I wish you, I wish you well. And I wish you, I wish you well. Why'd you ...
Head in the Clouds (1)
มุมมอง 1319 ชั่วโมงที่ผ่านมา
The days feel so much longer than they did before. The nights are so much colder what you waiting for. With each passing town, I’m more lost than I’m found. I listen for your sound, through the echoes that abound. And I can't find, Through these blinds of mine. How far have I climbed. Through an ocean of time. With my head in the clouds. Will you be around. When my feet hit the ground. Will you...

I saw you standing there, but I can't hold your baggage anymore. I saw you standing there, but I can't hold your baggage anymore. I can't hold your baggage, hold your baggage anymore. I can't hold your baggage anymore. I can't hold your baggage, hold your baggage anymore. I can't hold your baggage anymore. When I saw you standing there, I really thought the world could change. Now that years ha...
Nightfall (1)
มุมมอง 1421 ชั่วโมงที่ผ่านมา
Our destination was so far. But my legs were strong, so I kept moving on, til nightfall. The thunder rumbled cross the sky. It shoved me back, gave me a heart attack, beneath the pine trees. The wind was howling through our bones. The end was near, it felt so clear, trouble was brewing. The time had come to choose our sides. But in the dark, there was no spark, or any reason. At dawn, the smoke...

Walking (1)
มุมมอง 1821 ชั่วโมงที่ผ่านมา
Walking down the street, there's so much here I'd like to meet, but I've gotta be somewhere. I can hardly see, what they could ever want of me, but I've gotta be something. They said it'd be this way, I swear we'll find another way, hold them at bay, for today. We push and pull to gray, find some message in the way, the fire and the clay, link and spray. If you could think of me, then please do...
Time Machine (1)
มุมมอง 59วันที่ผ่านมา
Groggy daylight, gently jostles, tracing a line, a thousand shining wormhole time machines, stations sputter, they're shrouded in, shrouded in the softly falling snow, the backsides of buildings, leaves swirling past, a daily snapshot not remember… ing, rhythmic pulsing, rails sketch our route, to deposit me beneath the concrete trees. I lost my way, the other day, what can I say? I'm lost in s...
Fragile Fossils (1)
มุมมอง 11วันที่ผ่านมา
I stand on edge arms waiting, I feel the ledge beneath, I feel your arms around me, I feel the sun streaming down, It’s so near, It’s so far. The neighbor's hedge is spying, I feel that they're lying, The ooze it surrounds me, Dark chords that threaten to bind, There's no time, I'm so blind. You might think that we're dying, I can't say that we're trying, The more the pace it hastens, The more ...
A Simple Drop (1)
มุมมอง 21วันที่ผ่านมา
Sometimes life will beckon, sometimes it leaves you just behind. You need more I reckon, then what's sleeping in the pines. The stream below is shallow, the cliff above's too high. The field beyond is fallow, like we never even tried. The breeze playing, chords on the, brush piles. Frogs croaking, off time, alien patterns. An ember crackles, soft orange, in the night. Destruction, creation, ben...
Stalling (1)

I was stalling, woah oh, cuz we were falling, woah oh, They were calling, trying to find a way, to stay, in the waves, for days. For days. The sun was blinding, woah oh, our clothes were drying, woah oh, With the eagles flying, all around the sky, and I, could live, and die, inside, This world that we will find. I was torn and shattered, couldn’t take another step. The one thing that mattered, ...
Murmured in Gray (1)
มุมมอง 17วันที่ผ่านมา
I think I could have left it all behind. Spaghetti directions through sunburnt eyes. I heard you knocking from yesterday. Half remembered words I cannot say. Murmured in gray. I jot notes about dreams that I'd like to have. An old truck uphill sputtering blinding curves. Unsure footfalls on the stair. Tripping out the door with knotted hair, jangling keys. A dull ache in my head rattling agains...
Scribbled Out Across the Sky (1)
มุมมอง 4514 วันที่ผ่านมา
I think there’s some kind of pain, that I can’t feel anymore. The bullets are falling like rain, right outside our front door. And I guess I shouldn’t complain, until I stop begging for more. But to me, it just seems so plain, that we’re stumbling to another war. Everything I could be, stretched out in front of me, scribbled out across the sky. Everything I could be, stretched out in front of m...
Out of the Blue (1)
มุมมอง 3314 วันที่ผ่านมา
And I felt it too. When you sighed out of the blue. All the mistakes and the heartaches. All the first dates that fell on your plate. The long drive, took a lot from me. I hope that you thrive, and you feel free. All the first steps, and the days that you wept. I hope you escape, but I'm not replaced. I know I'll survive, away from you. I know that you'll try, in everything that you do. The far...

I got my heart broken... crossing over a mountain pass. I was still hoping... that we could make the moment last. The sun was shining... cold above the lonesome fields. As we kept trying... to find a way to fight back the tears. And I, went for a ride, I woke up in the alley... my matted hair was caked with blood. Escaped down into the valley... left wandering barefoot in the mud. I uncrumpled ...
