- Glastonbury
Now ever sound for you to hear
I'm not afraid of what I bear
Every lesson in reverse
This is twice now and unrehearsed
Over the river and through the woods
Someone listens when no one should
Natural aging (?) and artificial light
Like a robber in the night
- If You Need Me Back In Brooklyn
A song
Is coursing through my blood
Like a piece of me that I can't touch
Let it out
Spill it on the page
On the ground where I have met my fate
Many times
- It's No Ha-Ha-Ha
You might be surprised at the wonderings I have
When I'm out on my own for a day
Oh! Just look at me now I got walls all around
And I'm out on my own for a day
I make up a world of my worries and cares
And pretend that I'll never escape
When I contact my life and I hear of my strife
- Our New Intelligence
Stolen Aphrodite, beautiful and mighty
Act like you can find me tucked beneath a vine leaf
Try to keep my head down,
Try to keep my mouth shut
You do not exist; you are a product of my loneliness
Never let you in, I'll never let you find me
- Point of Surrender
Ohio in the cold of spring
I left my home to find out what I believe in
Memorial to the riverbank to your back door
Fumbling around in the evening
In the red
I think it's time that I changed my head again
Everything I'm saying but I never do
- Slander
You're a treestump color-wheel
Remainder with the chance to feel
Fighting father firefly
And thinking it's ok to cry
I was scared I saw the snow
It's sooner than I'd like, y'know
And god-forbid I made it through
- Something Salty, Something Sweet
In the leaves where the trees grow like water in the sea
Nature speaks to me
Something salty, Something sweet
I am naked in the dark
With my eyelids shining like flashlights
In the mist of our dirty playtime
And for the meantime
We are echoes of spring time
- Standing Outside A Southern Riot
There's a face that's just like mine
I used to wear it all the time
But I gave that up because I am no slave of a man
Sittin' in my bed I'm tryin'
Oh my God I think I'm dyin'
And my poor mother's crying
Confused and sad in the other room
Somebody tipped me off again
- The Ballad of Oregon-Master
Of all the things that please you
You'd have thought I'd found a way
Though I probably shouldn't think of it
I think most every day
I know you hear my voice sometimes
It's in a different way
I feel you in my sleep these nights
But lose you come the day-a-hey-hey...
- The Fall and The Need To Be Free
Keep your head up little arrow
find your path is not as narrow as it seems
you have grown
you are free
pain reminds (?) you things that bind you
they are just a product of your fear and what you've seen
what you are
- Welcome To Pittsburgh
I spent my time down on the sand
You said be my baby, let's start a band
But I haven't decided where I'm going
It's hard to love something
I've never known
And since I last knew you, you have grown
I can keep myself straight for over a month now
