New Colors 03:45
why hurt when you're alone just go and love someone into each other we don't have to hide if ever i'm home i'm here these old paints wont blend together so make some new colors days reading into more than i can find oh it's high on the ledge i hear i'm a drunkard stumbling my way into a diamond mine you're the riches behind my haze we're reaching to slip into our place if love dressed in red dreams us in blue glitters the color when i'm tasting you

The River 04:04
When I think of a river, and it's winds and flows I become part of it's moments, passing as it goes Like debris that collects on my worried mind I think about this all the time Everyone gets old And we all borrow our souls from the waste We can't remember But when i'm lost, you lead me back Lead me to the river On the banks of the river, my father led me home said "Son I'm jealous, these depths I'll never know. But in me you reflect, let that ease your mind." I think about him all the time Everyone gets old And we all borrow our souls from the waste We can't remember But when i'm lost, you lead me back Lead me to the river Everyone gets old And we all borrow our souls from the waste We can't remember But when i'm lost, lead me back Lead me to the river

Don't speak aloud Don't speak in vows Don't believe when we say that we've had enough Because you'd always wear it the worst no you don't know whisper light whisper love then slither away when you give up because you always wear it the worst and i wonder why Didn't you try? one lover begs one lover won't one by one you will use them till they burst because you can never be alone no you don't know do they weep do they cave do they answer to all you crave have you learned a new word when you learned to lie didn't you try? is there anyone that creeps across your bones like I tried when you refuse the bravest of a home I'll lie, i'll try but didn't you try?

Too Simple 03:23
It's too simple darling to love like dolls you need the riddles on my wall of all the weight too bold hope i'm the anvil crashing down on your mind I hold all the wait for you when you try Love's elusive Like the monsters in the dark when craving the electric I can set you off of all the weight too bold hope i'm the anvil crashing down on your mind I hold all the wait for you when you try It's the salesman that bring you snake oil alcohol I'll wash you in the waters in my reservoir

Progress is a broken vase Only the flowers inside are worth being replaced With every walk we're taking there's a step that we'll trace It gets safer the further away This is the best I have to give To make you feel comfortable inside of your skin I'll make it worth it to remember You're always worth it to remember The concrete still greets like a cave Pulled into dimly lit corners to settle on a grave The sound refuge of seclusion still feels out of place It belongs somewhere further away This is the best I have to give To make you feel comfortable inside of your skin I'll make it worth it to remember You're always worth it to remember You are always worth it to remember
