This is the way we want it Cant feel it any other way Who is that seeing now? Through eyes that wont forget the way I watch you walk away from me To See Who keeps this vision tight No telling where it lands today Floating down from every cloud you’ve dreamed Landing in their prime On every single one of me, to be. I wanna watch you walk away from me In dreams that i cant keep out Holding court underneath the sea And scream as theyre peering out “You’re on every face i see” Who is that leaning out, catching light from every single ray, all made in wait for this day, a little late. I’m not awake to feel the way, more everyday, the burden goes away.

Ghost Sign 04:10
Radiate, from silence Sealed fates, have not arrived yet. Another color to the wall, to greet all Who could find it. It never came apart this easy. But behind, two eyes stare, then read on, surprised that, They don’t have to stay inside so long; a head, still hiding: Leftover sediment, that the sun won’t show A tethered remnant, to keep the level low. Keep on rising, with hands still guiding; A wider crack to fall into, a larger mouth to scream Rarer measures that seek hunger too, and weather every dream But I couldnt take apart the weaving Keep on rising with hands still guiding Stay on this side of, these arms still driving without a darker thought or feeling I won’t delay the start so freely

Berner 03:48
A body shaken alive, with eyes cut to size Picked out a lighter pair and stepped out to try Reshaping feelers to see much clearer On the other side of the mirror Did we start walking again? To keep the fire alive the moment is stepping aside “Ship to shore return and come in every size” No reader or meter Just a hungry head that eats itself from inside Did we start talking again? Let’s pull these branches aside to leave a visible line To follow through the wilderness they left us inside Quite sure they told you, “the world is ove” Depending on the eye of the beholder, raised in the trees where, The smell of free air, will trick the eye that meant to be there. Did we start walking again?

Look At It 04:43
They just wont stay On their own Look at the way They’re leading home It seems the end of this is coming after all New diamond on the roof above the window, shaky hands tricking any sign that could show Another part of, the start of it all Cleaning out; of empty air, breeding sound. Take in the real way the light is eating up us all Dont see another way through it, open the door, i dont wanna do it You play a part in the start of this fall, withdrawn from all Unending haze, a longer stay To see the day all ways Cover up them all And i can stay Its still all there, cleaning out, breeding sound.
5.
Ill give you anything Ill make it up to whoever Spends their life reckoning the shape of forever What are you waiting on It shouldnt take this long Never sat alone so i don’t control the sights Washing over Passing on the right What are you waiting on It shouldnt take this long Hold your finger to my thumb We erode Steel eyed So that after the seas have all pastured, the grass has no greener master What are you waiting on It shouldnt take this long
6.
Sentimental people With elemental charms Will stay inside for every mile that has gone And hid it from whoever can’t see them as they are Underneath a failed moon thats finally moving on Ill save them for myself, Ill put them on my arm to charm A way of saving everyone, a hand held up over the sun The numbers showing up too long Level headed feeders with ornamental eyes Will see above the failing of every single lie
7.
I dont seem to remember coloring a whole scene to unravel everything No sight unseen to reconvene the start of a color scheme we claim we are a part of I wont cling to no sidewalk stone renamed In case that you do, ill cross it off again And renew a season started late to bring you and slowly slip away I dont see you in every single day i see you can’t ever look away
8.
Under Waves 04:34
Under waves we’re rising on, softer lanes lead on Another one would wait for a lighter tide Paid for in time Soon everyone standing on this faded sun will choose not to feel at all, archiving it for later. For favors Missing connection from a sad eyed reflection Pushing shadows through an open window Two hands that break the fall, cover the time for all A view to never speak again or carry us in To misuse every sign theyre laying worth saving And choose to hear no sound, coming in just barely, surround.
