Just Be Here

Walk, you told me to
talk, i needed you
and tomorrow won’t be any easier
it’s harder in the end
and i know that i’ll still think of you
and how i lost my friend
And all i hope for is something more
you’re so much more than this
you’re everything i never had
my pure and total bliss
And all i hope for is that you’ll see
i need to feel you near
i dream your body wrapped in mine
i beg you just be here
with me
Say goodbye, walk away
don’t look back, i don’t think i can stay
for you

The Sway
04:11

The air weighs heavy with disillusion
and all that was
will never be the same again
don’t come the light this fault to see
the rain will bear, eventually
Lay to rest the bones that quarreled here
may they guide the way
What if the sea never knew who the moon was
maybe the sun never knew its full name
and with a reckless abandon the world shook
just to prove that it’s never the same
and the contrast is simply too perfect
the image is just too real
deciphering signal and context
missing all of the basic appeal
A fog weighs heavy on the horizon
the only way to see
is letting the fluorescent light in
don’t try to float above the sway
this feeling fresh of letting go just goes way
The clouds dissolve into oblivion
shadows dissipate

All We Are
03:23

Staring at these worn, wooden walls
splintered grain and broken beams
all the lies we tell ourselves
when all the while we’re bursting at the seams
A light breaks through the fractured filament
a testament to who we are
don’t let them in to see
all we are was there from the start
The light of these circling arches
crashing down in endless streams
the song of the siren withers
gone the way of wilted wings
Naiveté begets our honesty
everything that gives us pause
deconstruct these barriers
the fundamental nature of these laws
The rafters up above are caving in
a wisp of snow falls lightly to the ground
only a drop remains
it never even made a sound

The Afterglow
04:45

I remember the way you looked at me
even now that it's been ages
If a picture's worth a thousand words
in my mind I've written pages and pages
I'll show you where
words soft as air
melt in the afterglow
Take in the night
moon full, star bright
all that you've come to know
We're gazing into the same night sky
so far away, yet still so close
the moment passes and you say goodbye
still I can hear your echoes your echoes
We chase our shadows as they fade away
the light turns yellow through the leaves
And if my welcome isn't overstayed
let me whisper you a memory
The sun goes down, turn around
We laugh, we cry
we look, we find
we take the time
to stop rewind
To live, and grow
to sink, and float
to swim below
the undertow

You Never Were

Well i’ve got shrapnel for change
and i’ve been walking for days
just to see your pretty face
and tell you i don’t need your grace
Hey, you over there
(what are you running to)
hey, you over there
(what are you running to)
hey (tell me tell me)
tell me are you down
are you going down, down
You come crawling back here
at least i know, i know you’ll try
like i’ve just been waiting around
you can’t even look me in the eye
You think that i’m to blame
(you think you know me)
your eyes on the floor
(but you couldn’t be more wrong)
your tail tucked between your legs
(tell me your sorry)
you walk out the door
(you never were that strong)
I knew a boy not long ago
the one you were looking for
now he’s the man in the mirror
and he knows just why you’re here
Go, just walk away
(what are you doing here)
go, just walk away
(what are you doing here)
go (tell me tell me)
tell me are you down
are you going down, down

Always Something
03:47

You know it’s true
in my dreams all i see is you
loving me for good
It’s always something
that keeps you from me
the distance maybe, or her
I don’t need that much from you
just love, just love me a little
promise that it’s good enough
i don’t have that much to give
just love, just love me a little
promise that it’s good enough
You know it’s true
when i’m alone i picture you
lying next to me
It’s always something
that keeps you from me
a friendship maybe, or her

Born of Damascus, we’re Muhammad
and we sing for the restless and the dead
and the joy of our love
Don’t you remember i’m your brother
and i come from the soil where you are
we’re all one in the same: of the world
And yet i stand
head held high
here i am
waiting for the light
Don’t you forget me, i’m Muhammad
and i walked with the shepherd and the lamb
but i know that you never gave a damn
Wandering eyes tell the story
and our hearts bleeding empty sing the song
and our hands build the future
and we live on…
