Come On Down Those Stairs
A rock-driven love song with a subtle country swing.
Walk slow so that I can see everything
We can walk downtown
A little rain won't hurt anything, not a thing
Your eyes shine bright when you cry, oh why?
I run to you like a child
I just like living under the same old sky as you
There goes a miracle
There goes my dream
There goes a woman
The best I've ever seen
Soft whispers lace my ears
Long hair when we lay down, falls around
I don't say a word
And I wonder where this could go, you never know
There goes a miracle
There goes my dream
There goes a woman
The best I've ever seen
So in the morning take my hand
Your early splendor warms my land, where I stand
So climb back up my stairs
Walk slow so that I can see everything
Fireworks
A flowing, nostalgic rock track built on repetition and mood.
Standing still, sweetly roams
Stately home on that hill
Listen still for fireworks
Won't you follow me home?
Can't sleep alone
Won't you follow me home?
Can't sleep alone
Follow me home?
Too young to know what a heart is for
Her wit is quick, but her timing's poor
A lion roar on that hill
An easy score for fireworks
Can't sleep alone
Won't you follow me home?
Can't sleep alone
Won't you follow me home?
Can't sleep alone
Follow me home?
Josephine
A swaggering track built on groove and layered harmonies.
Quite a fable, the tale of Josephine
When you came without a warning
That choice was yours
Let your secrets roar
Can't find a girl, name of Josephine
My eyes are sore, no sign of Josephine
When you came without a warning
That choice was yours
With a whisper in the morning
Let your secrets soar
Twighlight time
Your pale stars shine
Red wine, a true friend of mine
You'll have to pick another time
To move on
Pay no mind to a broken heart
Its the cost of things when they fall apart
To win this race, win it from the start
And take gold
I know a girl, name of Josephine
Quite a fable, the tale of Josephine
Elaborate
A restrained, guitar-driven track built around a steady drone.
You knew that I would take the bait
Looking up with a lack of faith
Do you care to elaborate?
The path ahead is ours to roam
You can tell by my jealous tone
Your courage is full grown
All our dreams are slightly warn
Make the most of this approaching storm
There’s lots of time for us to mourn
This dark season is reborn
Tell me how to know, tell me how I know now
Tell me how to love, tell me how to love yeah
Tell me how to know, tell me how I know now
I’m awake and it’s late
You knew that I would take the bait
Looking up with a lack of faith
Do you care to elaborate?
Sit Still
A slow-burning ballad built around layered male and female vocals.
But you’re welcome to come, welcome to come
I’m only leaving here
To save the mercy I won, we better run
Take my hand
With your own free will, own free will
Shut the eyes
Of the spirits you killed, they all sit still
It’ll be a long dream
With loosely cut seams
Express your philosophy
Never tell me what it means
What it means
Smile and touch me gently
And always break down the door
Break down the door again
It’ll be a long dream
With loosely cut seams
Express your philosophy
Never tell me what it means
What it means
It’ll be a long dream
With loosely cut seams
It’s been a long dream
With loosely cut seams
Express your philosophy
Never tell me what it means
What it means
You Can't Be Kind
A driving acoustic rock track built on tension and raw vocal delivery.
Fallen wings entrenched behind
You can’t fight the shine
Of your dirty mind
In this time
There's no more living here
And I say to you “no more”
And I say to you “come home”
When you open up my door
To see what lays inside
You can’t be kind
Broken wings entrenched behind
You can’t fight the shine of your dirty mind
Black and Blue
It's so hard to fill these shoes
But I’ve got to see it through
Oh, you know I do
And I say to you “no more”
And I say to you “come home”
When you open up my door
To see this life inside
And I say to you “no more”
And I say to you “come home”
When you open up my door
To see what lays inside
The Poor Soul
A melancholic acoustic track featuring minimal guitar and vocal.
Because you lie
Sweet straight face
To justify
It makes me cry
But if I don’t take it
I’m left behind
And it floats inside my head
That poor soul lying in his bed
I never listened to what he said
I’ll keep my head up instead
This life’s fortune
Is not foretold
I only learned this
When I got old
Gotta know when to stand up
And when to fold
I ran right outta time
Can’t buy what’s not sold
And it floats inside my head
That poor soul lying in his bed
I never listened to what he said
I’ll keep my head up instead
This Leaving Season
A dreamy, introspective track built around melody and atmosphere.
Fall asleep as I ride the train
Nestled amongst all these changing leaves
Did your leaving even change a thing?
To be the belle of the ball again
Staying up late, using drink as a race
Crossed the line falling flat on my chin
It’s hard to breathe when I play make-believe
Flicking switches so that I can see
Wish it away in your deep wishing well
Well I do wish you well, please believe
Feels so empty when my cup’s half full
Looking sharp don’t make the night so dull
Feels so empty when my cup’s half full
Looking sharp don’t make the night so dull
I listen closer to melodies
To see what harmony can bring
Nestled amongst all my changing leaves
Did your leaving even mean a thing?
