I woke up in the water
I woke up with my love hanging by threads
I saw us for the first time
I saw it was the end
No more water, Im drying out
No more sunlight, the world’s getting darker
Love is lost in blurry scenes of you for you and me for me
We’re too far away, far away, far away

This balance is tilted
I can’t seem to stand still
I wish I could see straight
See the shape of my hunger
See it tumble and tangle
Entangled in my words
I just wanna feel still
I just wanna feel still
Find me some passion
In the passion fruit forest
Take a walk on the 9th cloud
Where you’ll find all your answers
I get lost in the daytime
When I’m running on water
I forget to drink water
I forget to drink water
I wait for a sign telling me what I should see
I just want to see something in you that I know I can keep
But when I look through your salty eyes, I know you want me to see
I just want to be something else maybe this is not for me

My Mind Keeps Running
02:10
|

Maybe it’s just a few more weeks of this
I ain’t gonna run and hide
But my mind keeps running to a
Dark hole where I keep my soul buried deep
I ain’t gonna run and hide
I ain’t gonna run and hide

Take it in your own hands
Make the choice to get better
I’ve been numb for long now
I’m longing to, I’m longing to
Jump in ocean water
Take the road that’s longer
Try to be a dancer
I’m longing, I’m longing
Take it in your own time
Make the choice to get better
Please don’t hold me hostage
For who I am, for who I was
I could be a dancer
I’m feeling it, Im pacing
Please don’t hold me hostage
For who I am, for who I was
Cause I know in life there are highs and lows

Look up to the Light
03:29
|

Look up to the light will find me lost in layers
Light will guide me
Little bird sleeping away through the day
You never know what there is hiding away
There’s a land out there where what you do or say
Can count for you
And if you take a chance on yourself and let it go
You knock all the rocks out of your way to the show
The shadow that tells you to stop in the snow it
Looks up to the light will find me lost in layers
Light will guide me

No more will I hold on to you, so I let it go
No more will I hold on to you, so I let it go
Bring back that which is kind to you, so I let it go
What do we need?

Into the Water
03:28
|
|||
Into the Water 4x
I lose my way
And throw it down
This fire burns, it burns me to the ground
Into the water
Breathing through fingers
Give us our minds back
Give us our bodies

Let the Smoke Clear
03:39
|
|||
Lay low lie here
Let the smoke clear
Walk the borders
Wait for sun to finally rise
Keep from feeling
Keep from fueling all the fire
Keep my distance
If I look you in the eye

Bring me down to earth
Teach me how to learn
Teach me how to live
Teach me how to love

I Just Lay Down My Head
04:12
|
|||
I saw a light drifting across the pond (running, running)
I saw a dream falling flat underneath all the age
I saw a word, an idea floating across the screen
I saw myself, running far from, running far from
I saw your, self, running far from, the way we said things would be
I saw myself, running far from, running far from
I’ll just lay down my head
I’ll just lay down my head

Let’s make a deal to always be together even though we don’t belong
