Classic 03:00
I guess I pulled a classic I stayed up too late got a little too drunk Said things that might be fucked up Well, there is no one waiting to forgive me So I better start forgiving In the night comes out the shout And in the night another face And my life is in retrograde As the shadows dance Well, I guess I pulled a classic I stayed up too late got a little too drunk Said things that might be fucked up And it's not worth the pain No it's not worth the hurt That we’ve unearthed That I’ve unearthed Sometimes a word is said And sometimes a spell is dropped And things rearrange in my head And the fog drifts off Well, I guess I did what everybody thought I guess I did what I thought I’d do I played the fool stayed up too late got a little too drunk Said things that might be fucked up

I count the days like they do the rain On the southern plain Oh, it’s a joke to feel this broken But I do, yeah I do Scenarios they play in my head The comfort for a moment Then they leave me in bed On the road dust lingers in air I think about All the time I’ve spent on this dream of mine of mine, of mine, of mine We watched the light pass through the mist In the place where it all began I heard you walked, where I walked after I left But the words that I said, put it all to an end If only, If only, If only time would let us go back again Memories never quite serving me Memories always leave me in a dream I get lost, I get lost, I get lost Time and time again A road can stay parched only so long As the wind settles in And the storm moves on I take my place to leave This town of tin I count the days until I see you again Memories never quite serving me Memories always leave in a dream I get lost, I get lost, I get lost Time and time again Thinking about this dream Thinking about this dream of mine Of mine, of mine, of mine Of mine, of mine, of mine

In the Sun 02:48
Did you know I was lying When I said I was fine? I wait in the sun For this to fade But there is no one to take my sorrow There is no one There is no one There is no one I wait in the sun I wait in the sun I wait in the sun I wait for this to fade Did you know I was lying When I said I was fine? I wait in the sun I wait in the sun I wait in the sun I wait in the sun For this to fade

Sandcastles 04:04
Sandcastles mistaken for dunes I thought I knew what I was getting into I’m still stuck in your room Waiting to say goodbye You were taught to survive But the tide took you under Oh, it must be natures disguise When you go to the other side Wont you leave a little love behind I went looking for you Didn’t know your new home was in the sky Fly away Fly fly away Sandcastles mistaken for dunes You thought you knew what you were getting into When I go to the streets I’m met with vignettes The shadows fall But they have not taken you yet I’m not ready, I’m not ready, to forget When you got to the other side Wont you leave a little love behind I went looking for you Didn't know your new home was in the sky Fly away Fly fly away Sandcastles mistaken for dunes Thought I could hold onto you Objects are a reminder But don’t take my regrets I wish I had just a little more time But what would you get I hope you’re doing all right on the other side

Satsuma 03:57
The smell of oranges are in the air And I am falling Has it been a year I go to the market With my girlfriend's parents And I buy a bag of satsumas Can Whole Foods really be called a supermarket? When it’s just a big boutique box store I think compulsively Frank Ocean is playing And I feel how I felt in Baltimore on that cold day When we put the L. Cohen song on One of us must be wrong One of us must be wrong And the feeling shot through me Like ice water but colder One of us must be wrong When I moved to San Fransisco last February Satsumas were on sale I think they're following me I eat them and they Taste like chalk on my teeth I eat them to remember this grief And I wonder if my girlfriend knows, How much her ex girlfriend liked them? And how much she’s hating me now I think compulsively But I don’t act anymore One of us must be wrong One of us must be wrong One of us must be wrong And I keep forgetting to listen to music I keep forgetting to take a deep breath I keep thinking one of us must be wrong Oh I’m jealous of myself two year ago Everything was bathed in some naïve light But I’m mostly alright

Stars Go Out 04:42
I wake up in the middle of the night I wish the moon were dimmer And the stars would go out Can we just sit here a little longer I know it doesn’t show where we will go But its alright not to know Why do I always give away my heart? I hand it out to the strangers that I meet And I let it float under the bar where I sit Why do I always give away everything? I wake up in the middle of the night I wish the moon were dimmer I wake up in the middle of the night Won't the Stars Go out? Hey you do you have some time? Hey you can you take what’s off my mind? I come home from work and I stare at the ceiling I let it be my reel for the evening I close my eyes you are distant I am near I close my eyes you are near and I disappear Your name Your voice I'll never know Your name Your voice I surrender I wake up in the middle of the night I wish moon were dimmer And the stars would go out
