living on a farm

sunlight shining off the leaves

sneaking through the window pane to me

to me

falling back into the time

when we were one and you were mine

i cry

i always cry

oh my

always reading between all the lines

and i can't find the time to

lose myself in my mind

sometimes i lose myself in my mind

i can't hide

love is shining from your soul

lift me up and make me whole again

my friend

rain is tapping on the side

of the house we bought

where you an i once lived

as kids

we did

you know where i belong

with you living on a farm

forever

always reading between all the lines

and i can't find the time to

lose myself in my mind

sometimes i lose myself in my mind

illuminated by the moon

the fields are bright

and i don't think we're doomed

not soon

i find

i wanna find love too

with you living on a farm

oooh we're living on mars

together

Light

You said the last time that I held you tight

was the last time that i really breathed

i whispered slowly well what does that mean

and you just said we’ll see

there’s a light in my bedroom

flooding blue from the tv

there’s a ghost in my bedroom

and he’s watching over me

i dreamt of you once again last night

and i wondered where is my mind

where is my heart, where is my soul

and is love really blind?

on my page there’s a teardrop

flooding down from my eye

and there’s a hole in my heart

i hope one day i’ll find

love will rain

love will reign

love will rain down

Burning Time, Wasting Wine

it's always been cold

and now that you're old

it's a little too late my friend

you've been burning time

you've been wasting wine

and you're late for rent again

sitting at the football game

under a cold november sheet of rain

i looked around and wondered: "where have you been?"

but this was not my time to know

and as the rain it froze to snow

i shivered and stared back into my coffee

i remembered back into the fall

when i would try to avoid your calls

any form of contact at the time was too much

and lying in the yard with leaves

looking for something to believe in

i had the distraction of my dog to help me

fast forward dreams of city-bound

my future self was still unfound

my mind had really just begun its racing

with love and life and politics

or skyward staring into mystics

and in the future i had hoped to sing

i know a girl who makes sense of

the worried questions in my head

my little girl opens my mind

beyond a time

when heartache rules the world

figuring i had much to learn

and too much time already burned

in the pyre of time that i had become stagnant

with bombs exploding everywhere

in a time and place where no one cared

what i have to say i felt it time to talk

my brothers would soon forgive me

when time came for me to take my leave

checking the mail for photographs would have to be enough

in what cannot be explained in words

or recorded so it can be heard

in the future i naively hope to sing

i know a girl who makes sense of

the worried questions in my head

my little girl opens my mind

beyond a time

when heartache rules the world

it's always been cold

and now that you're old

it's a little too late my friend

you've been burning time

you've been wasting wine

and you're late for rent again

Colorful

colorful, beautiful

in your heart

beautiful: counter full of chemicals

he know how

the kind of fall - beautiful

or anyhow

beautiful on the whole

it is your heart

beautiful he cried

it isn't like i really had to try

we're going

for the real

we're going

for the real

we're going

all dressed up but he got nowhere to go

ready to sing but he don't have a show

still he bought it

and true he thought

i'll play it hard - like he know how

still he fought

hoping for a miracle

it's breathing out, breathing in and breathing now

it's beautiful, damn you know it's beautiful

it ain't your fault but still it is your heart and all

it's beautiful, don't you know it's beautiful

in your heart down where you gotta start

a dark heart greets me with another form of

time to occupy

we're going

it's breathing in

without it

it's breathing in

we're going

woah

For You

when the weather changed

the trees gave way

to exposing their bare bones

he stood like them

stark and naked in the cold

empty and screaming for a home

and with no comfort near

and no end in sight

he pined for you

the only thing he ever knew

for you he would fall

to a cause great or small

again

for you he would take

that fatal pill and fake

his death

for you he would go

to great lengths just to show

his love

but he can't lose you again

all the ticking clocks

that sing her to sleep

strike more truth in her head

that the man she loved

is gone in the past

like a stranger passed and moved on

and with no one to call dear

and a head filled with fright

she pines for you

the only thing she ever knew

for you she would fall

to a cause great or small

again

for you she would take

that fatal pill and fake

her death

for you she would go

to great lengths just to show

her love

but she can't lose you again

so put down your pride

leave your heart at the door

for the fool in disguise

and fall

and with no comfort near

and no end in sight

he pines for you

the only thing he ever knew

for you he would fall

to a cause great or small

again

for you he would take

that fatal pill and fake

his death

for you he would go

to great lengths just to show

his love

but he can't lose you, no

he can't play the fool no more

he can't lose you again
