guide for a cloud river any time
i'd like the town next door to move close to me
i've got a guide for a cloud river any time
he's in a town I've been to a few good times before
license to get one yourself
i'm sure you'd like the town next door to move close to you
so we can learn to talk
any date you want in the summertime
and we can rack up a set for the living room
it's for my reading glasses on nights I'm home by myself
license to get one yourself
i'm sure you'd like the town next door to move close to you
so we can learn to talk
any date you want in the summertime
and we can rack up a set for the living room
so we can end the year more satisfied with ourselves
license to get one yourself
i'm sure you'd like the town next door to move close to you
so we can learn to talk
any date you want in the summertime
and we can rack up a set for the living room
it's for my reading glasses on nights I'm home by myself
license to get one yourself
i'm sure you'd like the town next door to move close to you
so we can learn to talk
any date you want in the summertime
and we can rack up a set for the living room
so we can end the year more satisfied with ourselves
and if you could live just a walk away
would I be hurled up here as an endless cook
feeding just myself
or a swimmer taking good time submerged where i could
find more things for your living room
it's what i never feel that i need 'til we find the time
and then my unconscious could tell myself
you would be worth including in crucial things
worthy of stopping time
'cus it meets what counts as a comfort source
and where the brush tip's covered in colored gel
i long for openings sustainable through bad months
license you got at the cutoff age so you could
make more festive your living room
up in the shadowed north
but you told me any time it made sense you had to
learn like i did just how to spill
the things that make you happy when you're at home by yourself
and if you could live just a walk away would i be
less confined to a silent week
waiting for moments to fall
like an accident you design yourself
i'd like to close what makes you afraid to fall
so we could end the year more satisfied with ourselves

Would I Want Beach Land?
05:20
|
|||
|
would i want blankets over my head?
and a fine summer fruit glass
ease on a coiled sand peak
would i be fine here?
reptiles fit in the can i let rot
for the length of the end stage
would it be fine sprawled in beach land?
in beach land
i could move gravel under my feet
a couple kids wanna join me
would i be fine settled in beach land?
would i want blankets over my head?
and a taste that i grew with
longed for a good end stage outdoors
kids look unhurt
tossing disks and feeding birds
would i want blankets over my head?
a road length downhill
ten feet above the sand ground that slips off far away
would i want blankets over my head?
and i don't want beach land
hung in my view drifting side to side for years
reflections aren't too clear
tossing disks and feeding birds

Ain't Nothing, I Promise
03:59

ain't nothing lost
we'll reach a nice branch
rejuvenate trust
what you come back to was always timeless
some clichés aren't too wrong
like those of clouds and awful chemicals
rubbing off on our base
some states of mind feed into decades
still we get to dig back far
sport tough to lose
an unaltered mind is where it ensues
like all i'll bump into the good it brings to take control and strum firm
and that's where me meet
a dissonant line to lose in the street
and don't fret
what clapped before unfurls still
there is nothing gone for us
and we'll get a chance to reach a better sphere

Explosive People
04:57
|

|
sometimes just the pull of beautiful colors and nostalgia
but then too soon stuck with
six sides of conflict fully mapped out
engulfed in ambiguity on a path through the south
and how does that tension fade?
how does that tension fade?
it just refuses to decay
tangled in the bay
the way both parties dread the change to look at their creations
communal heartbreak watching failure come up front
and pull a tight string
abstractly we feel how it infects everything
and how does that tension fade?
how does that tension fade?
it wants to drain below the dry
what looks like gambling every time
tangled in smoke from every side
it's tragic when we both can't turn away

Genuinely Thankful

i couldn't see us getting too far
but i would like to thank you for making my cctober interesting
i always told myself that clawing deeper would free me from sleep
and if my inner tune had no twist
i may have dropped into a spot where every sight is entirely blank
and thought i had the chance to strike a chasm of flavor and failed
i know for you it might seem less high
but genuinely i am glad to burn my wrist on social ties
i hope you share the feel of good explosion properly spread

Sleep

sleep nice this sunday
don't understate that room
you can draw what comes natural
planning for things not soon
sleep nice this sunday
how heavy lightweights loom
sleep nice this sunday
protected by fine peers
people who turn what were formerly seen as mummified gears
strange to call motherly 'til effects come clear
sleep nice this sunday
while all is fading past
and the stones to your side are still
in an un-breaking cast
unknown and comforting
buried in new glass
sleep under foreign skies
muted in gray stripes
it's indeed healthy having peaks of all different types
stay down the right days so all your fruits stay ripe

Beloved Building
04:37

|
eight spark rows from door
step fine
sweet lights
bet you killed your shoulder then
so you
next morning it's back in shape
blank hours we can fill
who let you untie scripts
with saints above in failure melting fast?
father presence building
in terror slacking loose to let you pass
eighth time locked new place
sweet times
brought enough first aid for days outside
my dear under highways
find more caves past dark
who first laid earth's stones tall
and let you bathe with any beast you like?
whose tools carved leaking passways
and sat there letting dirt reach past their guard?

stone frame keeps you high
soon to boil
sast week shown a few more city spoils
surrounding columns high
another loft inspired night
new shelves up
looks taller than anyone else's home base
a loving maze
grown attached to the haze
and it's no struggle to find your way to the top
any night you want
sound could raise the bed as you sleep
drowning any stress that could seep
too high
my mouth is ready to cry
it's been long enough
it's so much I dropped in my moat
to build the perfect home
it feels right
another loft inspired night
and it's no struggle
to find my way to the top
any night I want
my trees staked
waters too hard to escape
but there's nowhere that I'd feel safer trapped in
i'm sure of it
loving maze
i've grown attached to the haze
i need full tones that can feed every speck of my body
any time I want

Athens
05:23

i had the chance to get a mud survey
some forces push me out from any shoreline
and out i hike through local forest themed roads
soon get the impression that the progress stops there
then certain territories call my name
like in reality my current home's a long bridge
and there would lie potential somewhere eastward
some are in support and some are not too honest
i had the chance to get my clues fished out
lay them in front of me and see a few patterns
without a comforter in their front pocket
some would kick the dust
heading back to their old home
i have to say that i was almost there
grinding my feet against a huge fake dirt hill
but every now and then you hear in the papers
a voice speaking just to you and i heard
head on into the mainland when you're free
and aim for surprising deals
head over with monotony out of sight
real forces take the chance to drag you back
where sea levels threaten you
proud pillars in a dance
chilled banks between
who needs their pockets filled with eye destroyers
when on engaging hills of vast ripe sand
all one would need to see results on the back end's
sticks for support when the legs start aching
social support is how it needs to be
they say the landlocked parts reveal what's fantasy
leftover tear-inducing stains from the first years
once you're past the bridge you can filter bad from useful
who needs their pockets in a poor man's knot
they say the other side will scold you more harshly
the more important thing's preventing lost teeth and
saving for a time when you're handed all the big weights
a few big things are how they need to be
a future far from here will shape what's shapeless
and then compress till all resembles iron and
falls onto the dirt less likely to shatter
head on into the mainland when you're free
and aim for surprising deals
head over with monotony out of sight
real forces take the chance to drag you back
where sea levels threaten you
proud pillars in a dance
chilled banks between
gradual shifts in human-hood
don't sound real when filling up the suitcase
and standing past the other side for the first time
but that's only real to you
when your patience finally gets its voice
