All Better

it was storming out that new pressure moved in
my skins paper thin there’s a hurt to this wind
it was warmer then all the cold took hint
but falls coming up and came back with a sprint
i’ll just stay awhile there’s no harm getting wet
if the water is a threat i can disappear
if those trees could talk would they tell me to go
or just not let me know that i fucked it up
i could give this all up if i wasn't so proud
i don't need all this shit, i'm all better now
i don't care which way's up if i'm headed back down
i don't need all this shit, i'm all better now
the ice is thin don't know when i'll fall through
but i see the cracks i’ve been hung up on that
of no consequence is the weight of my step
if i go and get kept it’s i lake i bet
what's the catch, the rate, the cost of being left on my own?
doesn't matter now, no doesn't matter now
jesus take the wheel while i slide to the back
have a panic attack you’ve got it from here

if i got you just what you wanted
would that make me feel less haunted
i heard that wanting is wrong but
i’m sure i’d like to be wanted
when you say the gilded one liner
i laugh with both of my shiners
you got it right where you want it
it’s just my fix i keep calling
could that rain be telling me something
should i act less like a shut in
i think i might be moving
moonshine i’m drunk on my musing
when you say the gilded one liner
you got guts and damn am i wired
clothes lines hanging up naked
never had a problem faking
i don’t really care if its four in the morning
call me up and tell that you want me
hit me with that bad news first
when you’re at your best i’m at my worst
i’m dripping dry, getting by
i’ll be drinking all my clothes off
can i just get some sleep
do like i said, fool me twice
something’s missing, and i'm bored now
grab the rope, pal
tied up to both of my bedposts
it’s a sight to see, a view almost
sweet thing is making me sour
keep it at a hundred miles an hour
i’m getting worse directions
hit the ramp but missed the connection
too late for any objections
ain’t got the spine for corrections

what i want is something i can’t have
gave it up i’ll never get it back
talking shit, you know it made me mad
forgive in love just to forget the bad
passing through me like a phantom limb
your fingertips are picking at my skin
all that shit it used to drive me mad but
needing you is what i can’t get past
double shot you’re going round for round
showing sines so we can both black out
the two of us shouldn’t be this down
playing like we didn’t choose this route
going up so you can pull me down
but you won’t let me hit the ground
it’s not your fault, think i just like the sound
of blaming you like you’re here right now
i’ve been
throwing dirt on your name
but it still sounds the same
i’ve been
drowning out and feeling crazed
living life out of phase
wig out about the window frame
way back it didn't look the same
the light was hitting ways
you're sipping unreflected rays
you lam it in your head to much
you're running from the righteous stuff
the tape is reeling on and on
the head is gonna rub you wrong

handbrake on heartbreak and handles
slow up this sin call and strip mall
pills on the wood in the kitchen
sink in and sleep off these steep drops
i feel the brake, i’ll stop the shake
mississippi sound
when’d i get this down?
heavy hearts don't drown
miss you being round
wind in the winter, i’m pleading
my pushback is leaning, it’s leaving
he’s headstrong and hollow this evening
this isn’t my old friend from spring time
i feel the shake, it's becoming time
underwater nights brawl and scar the fights
hate’s a part of love that were not above
talk with me again lie but don’t pretend
i can feel the end this river is ‘bout to bend
washed up and died down in late day
my brother is back and were talking
yeah i’m the river and you’re the wind
mississippi sound
when’d you get this down?
heavy hearts don't drown
come by and batten down
roar and howl with me
get back feeling free
it’s only you and me
you're all i'll ever need

i’ll miss you something fierce soon
pure and kinda sexy like an alabaster honeymoon
there’s distance in the book of love
we’ll talk about our kinks like you’re so below and i’m above
your walls are indestructible
i’ll never make it through but i think that makes you lovable
you’re not here now and that’s perfect
i live in spite of death and i love in spite of everything
it seems unfair the way that love defines us
i’ll never know you better than i know you now
i'm only writing this ‘cause I’m delusional
i think that means i'm crazy but i know it makes you beautiful
your fucking frame and your magnum payday
they make me wanna die but in a haha funny sort of way
brooklyn baby, she’s breaking stately
the lavishness of life is keeping friends away lately
i can’t say that i never wanted it
but ever since i got it popping bottles isn’t cutting it
it's not cool but don’t you think i know that
it's not good so stop it with all the feedback
i'm still me so what’s with all the kickback
i just need a fix, a fucking hijack

Cold and Holy

(still in the water the rings of your border
are folding around me, the tension you’re holding)
i’m full mist eyed in a fist fight frenzied you
hold my hand for me i’m gone cold and holy
grace my cheekbone you touch like you’re alone i’m
dusty-eyed and sandstone i’m gone cold and holy wait
hold your frame there let me take a look
sink it there your hook
hanging on the end
got nothing better to do
it’s done though no regrets
it’s bad but i’m glad it was you
roll on softly this moment’s holy i’m changed
i’m a false me now i'm just your house key now
drink down ice and heartache lips wet with wine and salt lake
float like you done it slowly we gone cold and holy
where this great big breath goes
i'm unsure of when our air stood it still
stare down my sights and squeeze me tight
i swear it sounded right

far lover, your bedding’s on my eyes
i know her, those wet and naked miles
the level rose and sinking here
is the little left, that’s shedding tears
i terrify the candle light
the winner here is never right
sigh when you see that you’re holding on too tight
speak like you mean it, let’s put it down tonight
land breaker you buried that old bird
true summer is trust in return
we put it down the traveling but
distance is a changing thing
im reaching you, you're reaching me
and love is what it needs to be
sigh when you see that you’re feeling it too tight
reach like you mean it, we’ll do it till its right
closer to the border we can feel each other's light
crossing isn’t able but we’ll keep it up all night
try all you want it's the struggle that we do
straining to know is how i know it's you

One of These Days

i’ll sound it out and you’ll hear me
i’ll write it down and you’ll sign it
i’ll be around when you need me
i'll say it right one of these days
the words abuse our silence and
we’ll need to choose our violence and
we’ll put it down without the news
of being right one of these days
and while it breaks i'll look away
and while you learn were meant to stay
i’ll curse my words for holding back
i'll die for that one of these days
and all i’ve known will fall away
and all i've been will hesitate
and shake before the great berate
i could die right there
one of these days
beside yourself in oakland and
beneath the bed in austin
i'll go with you in quiet tread
i'll get it right waiting for you
the night around is black and blue and
the words you chose they’re cutting through
we named it wrong the things we do
we’ll sound it out one of these days

This is an album that you cant just listen to once. Theres so much happening with each song, you really need to listen and soak in each one. First concert I ever attended was during the LP3 tour, so this album will always have a special place in my heart!
