Colors In The Sky
03:10

was it all a dream? i wish i knew
these thoughts they're vivid through and through
there's no need to remember now
i said goodbye but it's still there somehow
i was sitting there watching colors in the sky
holding onto one last thing i knew would never say goodbye
the sparkle in your eye
the rumble of your touch
a voice that echoed endlessly, you're the only one i'll love
days never few and far between
finding comfort within routine
the game evolved - a tug of war
tension high, would this rope really be torn?
i was sitting there watching colors in the sky
holding onto one last thing i knew would never say
goodbye
the sparkle in your eye
the rumble of your touch
a voice that echoed endlessly, god i'm missing you so much
why does it grow so deep?
why does it overtake?
why does it make you fly?
why does it make you sink?
scream until you really hear yourself
belt until you sing of something else
as I'm sitting here watching colors in the sky
they are one, burst, separate, then shine and finally die
waiting for you to come back to me, it couldn't be more wrong
fade away into the sky, i'll burn brighter when you're gone

Say Hello
03:16
|
|||
keep standing still
don't move an inch
you are safe for now
there is nothing to bring you down
but you can't live
like this forever
reach out take that hand
and learn to trust again
so say say hello
because you may never know
maybe what staring right into your eyes
will lead to something that you never realized
now play this game
until you figure it out
hold onto your cards
and don't make a sound
you do, you don't
you wish, you won't
never have i seen anything more pathetic in my life
so say say hello
because you may never know
maybe what staring right into your eyes
will lead to something that you never realized
leave it behind, there's so many things you'll find
here's a chance to break out of the mold
take a risk, take a chance...see what will unfold
you get so comfortable...i know
but comfort will destroy
with everyday there comes a chance
to find what makes you whole
so say say hello
because you may never know
maybe what staring right into your eyes
will lead to something that you never realized
yell out goodbye
it's done and over so let it die
it's been so long since you've stood up tall
so long since you've wanted to give your all

New Decade
03:28
|
|||
you are the last two years of me
penn's landing after dark
sitting on the pier...shoes off, feet hanging
the art museum steps
running to the top...the sounds, the skyline
a walk in fairmount park
escaping everything...my world in eyesight
these weren't goals, just fantasies
and i thought they would come to me
you are the last two years of me
a bright hello to a brand new place
an awkward goodbye, wanting to see more of your face
you are the last two years of me
and i absolutely hate it
a night for resolution
farewell to the old...a new solution
flaunt everything that you can show for
ponder everything you wanted so much more
are you really finished?
that face makes me think i should rethink this
you are the last two years of me
a bright hello to a brand new place
an awkward goodbye, wanting to see more of your face
you are the last two years of me
but the cheering came
ringing in the new decade
a last a glance at you're face
i walked out that door
feet hit the street
body graced the bed the same
the same way that I entered
you are the last two years of me
a self-confidence being betrayed
and outright goodbye to contemplate chances i should take
you are the last two years of me

Keep Me Here
03:04
|
|||
a wooden church pew
never felt so comfortable
ringing bells
echoing throughout
a morning april chill
never felt so warm before
swinging trees
rustling of leaves
keep me here
every day
when surrounded by worry and expectation
let this be an escape
take it in
capture what you can
the days will pass
you'll slowly forget
and want even more again
keep me here
every day
when surrounded by trial and disappointment
let this be an escape
have I become numb to surroundings?
have I listened close when it's silent?
are you hiding deep inside
or waiting after miles
for me to find you
a dreary velvet sky
never looked so bright before
bold and serene
covering everything
cover me
have I become numb to surroundings?
have I listened close when it's silent?
are you hiding deep inside
or waiting after miles
for me to find you
do we become numb to surroundings?
do we listened close when it's silent?
are you larger than life
or in front of our eyes
saying you can take me
because i'll take you any day

Artie

walked out that door thinking
thinking this be the last time I'd hear that voice
your forty long my two years short
you saw your world
rise succeed, fail and fall
finally threw in the towel, I'd just begun
you didn't speak to me just because I had a fresh pair of ears
you didn't share your stories to boast or brag making yourself seem bigger than you appeared
i hope you know what you did for me
i pray I gave hope back to you
walked out that door
thinking I need to take another step forward
find what I love what I live for
and shortly afterward
you closed the door to years of long hard work
when your passions ripped away
what do you live for?
i hope you know what you did for me
i pray I gave hope back to you
everyday I hope someone will see in me
all the joy I saw in you
and rest now believe
artie
and never was I taught
to admire someone like you
the opposite, the unworthy would only
leave you more confused
for so long i gave my praise
to someone i never knew
listened to cover ups and liars, those who
never followed through
i hope you know what you did for me
i pray I gave hope back to you
everyday I hope someone will see in me
all the joy I saw in you
and rest now believe
i'll take our dream
and make it reality

It's Not About The Place
04:05
|
|||
where the stray cats roam
lies a strange scent of home
even in the darkest parts of town
i don’t feel lost, I am found
these white washed walls
had not one ounce of love
neglected room and slipshod house
justified the place, never was enough
a temporary fix
a trial or a taste
discovering the confirmation
that this was not the place
but it’s not about place, physical surrounding
suburban starlit fields
roaring city avenues
it’s people paired with hearts, beating in rhythm
cold, dark, asphalt lanes
the sunshine fades away
a stranger seated to the right
glowing in the distance
pierces through the night
tunnels filled with trains
fluorescent light flooded face
you will never be the same
embrace another world
where no one knows your name
a temporary fix
a trial or a taste
discovering the confirmation
that this may be the place
but it’s not about place, physical surrounding
suburban starlit fields
roaring city avenues
it’s people paired with hearts, beating in rhythm
time passes by, the pulse remains
home…was never here to stay
ready for someone else to change me
we all shared a piece of how to live
ready for someone else to feel me
we all have so much more to give
it’s not about place, physical surrounding
suburban starlit fields
roaring city avenues
it’s people paired with hearts, beating in rhythm
seasons change, the pulse remains
weeds growing through concrete
an ugly sign of spring
the winter passed moved on but inside of me
seasons will change everyday
