Garden 02:53
It's a long wait In the pain of jealousy It's the frosted windows Taking only what you need But I can't keep you out of this anymore And I can't get you into it anymore than you already were Take a little time away Take a little time to reflect Get the hard parts out of the way Live a life inside your regret Grow her a garden Oh, get her out in the sun She comes in like lightning Saying that you're the only one Take a little time away Take a little to reflect Get the hard parts out of the way Or live a life full with regret

It's the only one to start with I'm not against it, but something is missing Was it the countdown at your front door That flew the message through? It's just a moment when you stumble I'm not opposed to striving to stay humble But when you're all washed up, you're colder I'm sure I'll figure out these hands that grow older But they fail me so I stare out, we set off
3.
Just one more night in the cold We watch our city turn its lights on and off The grey machine that we call home Holds us in and leaves us out Short on gold, we pave with fever dreams "Bite your tongue," you whisper soundlessly We aren't as far as we might seem From tapping out the rhythms of your sleep Short on gold, we pave with fever dreams Sound asleep

Paciencia 03:48
They say that today will be the day When the leaves start falling And your hair shifts gray It's a long time coming But it hits us well When the light brings morning And a vacant shell My mind gets slower still I calm down somehow I feel all you have I, with time, learn to count out fortune with you And they say That now is the time When we'll put our heads together And set it out right Yeah, you're living lonely And I'm growing sore But I grow in the shadows of what came before My mind gets slower still I calm down somehow I feel all you have I, with time, learn to count out fortune with you

It's all over They're keeping watch upon the highest bidder The train stops, you get off whether you like it or not You're committed I'm bleeding out for something I have never seen I drive and drive I wear a hole into this leather seat You beg and beg for something there's no guarantee of getting What made you so devoted? I won't suffer it, and I won't stand for it You fall forward We start to tumble down the earthward torrent The floor tears, the sky falls Whether admitted or not, you deserve it I'm running low on energy to move my hands It's been at least a year since I have set foot on dry land You tell me swim and swim And fate will change the hand it's dealing What's got you so devoted?

Spent a year building up for a season It won't come back here now Everything I thought I knew is leaving Pouring out our silver town Never thought I'd think to say this But I miss our grayscale days We'd say something and we'd mean it We swore that we would never change our ways The wind blows and time goes with it Unwinding twists of fate The country's covered with leaves you could swim in The sunset's running late The hilltop takes me prisoner The fields are widely flayed And filled with things that keep them living The laughter and sadness in the words we say I take my whispers with me
