Home For The Winter
04:01
|
|||
So used to the raindrops on my head
It’s been so long since I slept in my own bed
Waking up to the tiredness in my bones
I’ve been spending the past months on my own
So I know that I’m coming home
Heading home for the winter
Bite my tongue, never say it straight
'Cause I try so hard to appreciate
The mystery of the winter fog
The overcast has turned me cold
So I know that I’m coming home
Heading home for the winter
We leave for the winter, migrate down south
We'll be leaving with our wings tied back
No regrets, eyes on the road
We coast along these yellow lines
And soon we roll, down the sixteenth
Marking each turn in our minds
And this one time, I won't be looking back
I'm heading home
Heading home for the winter

Consequences
03:58
|

You don't know he's half of what you are
Does the wine decide how you feel
Or does it help you dig up the truth
I don't know what you want
Do you know what you want
But you let him into your heart
It hasn't changed at all from the start
It's so hard to let go
Why's it so hard to let go
You don't understand these consequences
You don't know he's half of what you are
And you run back out to his door
And he’s there with a smirk on his face
He lies and says he’s sorry
But you know he’s not sorry
But you run back there every night
And you leave before the first light
You say you’re used to it
But I know you’re sick of it
You don't understand these consequences
You don’t
You don't understand these consequences

Old Songs
03:50
|

Do you recall
The songs that we once sang
And every tune
Reminds me more of you
And the first time that our eyes met on the floor, I couldn't ignore
The need to smile, and so I do, and you met me with your sweet laugh
And I leave town
For a month or two
And everywhere
Those songs still haunt me
The kind that leaves you with a bittersweet memory, I couldn’t forget
The need to smile, and so I do, and you meet me with your sweet laugh
I want to say, thank you for the good times and the memories
When I return, you move in and leave it behind
And now we're here with a guitar
We will sing
We still sing
We will sing, we still sing the same old songs

Line
03:10
|
|||
You and I, we drew a line
With turns and loops left undefined
You and I, we made a pact
We twist the truth until it was fact
It was only in sand, only written in sand
You and I, we built a fire
We watched it burn until it was higher
You and I, we watched it grow
Was it love, we won't know
It was only in sand, only written in sand
You and I, we drew a line
It was only in sand, only written in sand

Why Must I Go
03:46
|
|||
My limbs are glued to the bed
My eyes are sealed with fatigue
A restless rush, another start
Of a maze I’ve yet to part
Why must I go?
We’ll never know
Papers and pens don’t get it done
The memories, they weigh a ton
Will our eyes learn to realise
That life is just a grand surprise
Why must I go?
We’ll never know
We don’t wanna go back
To this place we have called home
Why must I go?
We’ll never know

The Seed
03:42
|
|||
There’s a portrait drawn of you
By an old man who doesn’t know you
I warned you to fear the darkness
You don’t heed it until you’re haunted
Oh, take my crown
Oh, take my pride
Your choices worked against mine
They were clouded by an old scar
Before I run home to my father
I remind you to find your roots
Oh, take my crown
Oh, don't lose your pride
As the guilt runs through your veins
And the thorns slide around your neck
You were saved by kin and water
And reminded to take your sword
Oh, take my crown
Oh, don't lose your pride

Kimberly

Oh Kimberly
You are so lovely
Your silver tongue always finds the words
To make me feel like I'm on my throne
Your loving arms always give me warmth
And hold me tight through the coldest night
Oh Kimberly
You are so lovely
In other words you're a pocket full of sunshine
Don't get mad at me for singing such a dumb line
You deserve a little more appreciation
‘Cause with you around I feel the need for celebration
Oh Kimberly
You are so lovely

My Spring Your Fall
03:08
|
|||
I told you that spring was a time for constant growth
And you warned me that petals would only fade from now
You were right
When we close our eyes, we take a breath and count our luck
I was the optimist, I outweighed all the cons with the pros
And you were a realist, you outweighed my pros with the truth
You were right
When we close our eyes, we take a breath and count our luck
It was my spring and your fall
You look at me like it’s all my fault
You were right
And when we close our eyes, we take a breath and count our luck
