It's that bathroom light
On the airplane again
Where you stare through the mirror
While you’re washing your hands
And the person you see seems like
A long lost friend
You have tried to avoid
You could move to the coast
You could fly there right now
You could go tell the pilot
Just to make a new route
Tell him you can't explain it
And you don't know how
To leave behind what you feel
So you just shut your mouth
You walk back to the seat
By the one man that snores
And each time that he wakes up
He screams "please help me Lord"
And his skin smells like whiskey
From a couple days before
You’re his shoulder to cry on
You’re the one he adores
There's a sound from the cockpit
Like a heavenly voice
Saying "your time has come"
We are crashing for sure
There's no flashing of life
There's no echoing void
Calling out like you hoped
When you laid on your coat
And imagined yourself
As a angry boy
On those dead leaves you found
Crunching under your back
time has come
Time is Now
It's your time
Then the plane lands just right

Anything

You were my first anything
First walk down a dead end street
First time I ever saw the ocean
Let the water nearly freeze my feet
You were my first favorite day
First dream that didn't let me sleep
First time I ever felt this way
You were my first anything
You were my first anything
First fall from a pecan tree
First time I ever felt the midnight
Only time I ever felt relief
You were my first sky turned gray
First rain on a summer street
First time I ever felt this way
You were my first anything
Love never seems to make it
Love never wins the war
But this time, this time, this time might be different
This time...
You were my first anything
First night on seventh ave.
First time I ever asked forgiveness
First time I let somebody down
First time I'd ever want to stay
Or climbed a mountain just to say I have
The first time I ever felt this way
You were my first anything

I don’t care about what people think
But I care about what they’re sayin’
I don’t care about the government
But the news keeps tryin‘ to persuade me
I don’t love anyone but me
But I see you every once in a while
I wouldn’t blame you if you want to leave
But I’m sure I’d miss your smile
The lilies in the field won’t let me be
singing for the sun but I want the night
All the questions won’t ever leave
Let’s dance ‘til the mornin’ brings a brand new light
I don’t think about being rich
But I wonder if I’ll ever be
Prob’ly end up in a ditch
You can be mad but you can’t be mean
I’m out looking for the in between
watching you will make me lose my mind
My eyes hope for what can’t be seen
it’s a game for guessing and I’m in my prime
I don’t care about what people think
I kinda do but don’t tell on me
Like we’re dancing in a sink
You can be mad but you can’t be mean
Tell my baby I need a hand
I can’t eat all this ice cream
I don’t care if you understand
You can be bad but you can’t be mean

Dirty Camaro

Sings that song like
It’s the pledge of allegiance
Windows down on Christmas Eve
Kissed his head
Flew off like a sparrow
She drove off in her dirty Camaro
He drew a heart on
That back filthy window
So she could see him as she waved goodbye
Said she’d come back
When he was finally sober
She drove off in that dirty Camaro
In that dirty Camaro
In that dirty Camaro
She threw her phone on the banks of that river
Held her broken heart and sang out a prayer
Figured he’d prob’ly be dead by the mornin’
Shook off the ties that binded her there
To her surprise problems got smaller
Just like she read when she wiped off that mirror
she headed north the wind it got colder
She drove off in that dirty Camaro
In that dirty Camaro
In that dirty Camaro
Sister got the address at the motel she stayed at
Extended stay blinked above her cold room
Sent her some money to fill up the gas tank
Along with a note that said follow that moon
Things went south as soon as you left here
You can imagine the state he’s in
But run baby run you’re just past the border
We’re all Praying you make it in that dirty Camaro
In that dirty Camaro
He drew a heart on that back filthy window
So she could see him as she waved goodbye
Said he’d come back when he was finally sober
To her surprise the problem felt smaller
Just like she thought she read in that mirror
And as she headed north
The wind it got colder
And she drove off
In that dirty Camaro

Can you call it a storm if there ain’t no rain
This old house has had almost all it can take
Is it thunder or footsteps of you pacin’ the floor
I can’t tell the difference anymore
If these walls could talk, whose side would they take
Both hearts end up broken either way
Is it your side or my side worth fighting for
I can’t tell the difference anymore
Is it blowing over
Are we caught in the eye
Am I hearing sirens or is that just your crying
Is it a crack of the lightning or you slamming the door
I can’t tell the difference anymore
If these walls could talk, whose side would they take
Both hearts end up broken either way
Is it your side or my side worth fighting for
I can’t tell the difference anymore
Let’s take this outside slow dance in the rain
Let ‘em mix with the teardrops ‘til they’re one and the same
Hold on to my body I’ll hold on to yours
Till we can’t tell the difference anymore

Everybody knows you are a flower
One of those you see
Breaking through the concrete
Shining all that beautiful light on everyone you meet
Everybody knows you are a river
One of those you hear
Cutting through the valley
Changing every color
For everyone to see
And shining all that beautiful light
On everyone you meet
Oh Elizabeth
I can hear you singing underneath your breath
Footprints on the hardwood
Lighter with each step
Goodnight baby
Goodnight Elizabeth
Everybody knows you are a sunbeam
One of those you feel
Shining on your shoulder
Just after a week or so
Of thinkin’ it couldn’t get much colder
shining all that beautiful light on me
Oh Elizabeth
I can hear you singing underneath your breath
Your little feet on hardwood
Lighter with each step
Goodnight baby
Goodnight Elizabeth
Oh Elizabeth
Blinking of an eye and time just
Lost its breath
The moon forgets to rise, the sun tries not to set
Goodnight baby
Goodnight Elizabeth

I just want some of your attention
Am I asking too much
Am I asking too much
Am I asking too much
When I say I want you near
I do not understand the mission
How we’re ever gonna find our way
I’m here waiting with open arms, open arms
Saying please, you’ve got nothing to fear
Something happens and it feels like God when you are near
When we met, did I fail to mention
I was perfectly lost
I was perfectly lost
I was perfectly lost
In the best of ways
I don’t know just how to say
Any other way
But please, you’ve got nothing to fear
Something happens and it feels like God when you are near
Something happens and I don’t know what
But I know this much, that it feels like God when you are near
I wanna stand closer together
Right by your side
I wanna stand closer together
Cause when I look you in the eye
Something happens and I don’t know what
But I know this much, that it feels like God when you are near
Something happens and I don’t know what
But I know this much, that it feels like God when you are near

You put her picture in my place
One of me smiling at the top of the stairs, sun in my hair
I know that it's for the best
But I’d kind of hoped that you'd keep it there
Forever held in that light
A frame that you kissed goodnight
You put her picture in my place
That April sun shower
But everything was coming up roses
Does her name and mine feel the same
Coming off of your lips at the end of the day
Forever held in that light
A frame that you kissed goodnight
If your walls could whisper
That song that we used to sing
Bet they could sing me back home
You put her picture in my place
She looks so beautiful in her white summer dress
And your hand on her waist
Forever held in that light
A frame that you kissed goodnight
Forever held in that light
A frame that you kissed goodnight
You put her picture in my place
She looks so beautiful

I’m on fire when you’re near
When you call my name, when you call my name
Burn like fire when you’re here
When you call my name, when you call my name
At night sometimes I hear you under my bed
I take my time I hope it's not what I dread
Praying oh God that you hold me close
Shut both my eyes I don't wanna see her ghost
(That's why I still sleep with the lights on)
I crack my blinds afraid to see what's outside
Your branch it sways and takes my breath with the night
Feel you breathing like a siren's call
Hear your voice from the dark side of the hall
Burn like fire when you’re near
When you call my name, when you call my name
Burn like fire when you’re here
When you call my name, when you call my name
I stand up tall I put my back against the wall
I spread my arms, my hands and tell you I'm yours
Look you dead into the eye and hum
I'm alright, take whatever you have come for
Go, go, leave me alone
Take what you came for and leave the light on
Go, go, leave me alone
Take what you came for

Losing You

You’re leaving here
One moment at a time one bitter blissful climb
One long and slow goodbye
You’re leaving here with years still left to go
Your pictures songs and poems
Will echo through this home
I’m losing you slowly, I’m losing you fast
We’re dancing on wires both know it won’t last
You’re leaving here
Your height lines mark the walls
Your mother’s heart is strong now pack it in your car
You’re leaving here I hear it in your tone
I see it in your steps your hellos seem to know
I’m losing you slowly, I’m losing you fast
We’re dancing on wires, both know it won’t last
I’m losing you slowly, come take all i got
Pack it safe in your boxes like a gun at my heart
Like a gun at my heart

August coming over the ridge
I can see it if I squint
Me and leaves are slowly dying
It could take a thousand years
A thousand broken bones and tears
To teach me how to break this silence
But there is a road over that mountain
Way up yonder on a new horizon
Can’t you feel the blood in your heart pounding
There is a road over that mountain
In my mind I'm going home
Every white line that I'm on
Seems to whisper "just stop trying"
Water rages beside me
Cold air sharpens what I can see
I told myself I’m not worth finding
But there is a road over that mountain
Way up yonder on a new horizon
Can’t you feel the blood in your body boiling
There is a road over that mountain
When you can't seem to find the sun
And you Can’t feel that distant hum
I hope you hear the spirit
I hope you live to find your way
And I Hope I’m here to see the day
When You can hear that spirit callin’
