So Nice

It would be so nice if I could hear your voice calling ‘cross the meadow
So nice to hear anything at all
Take seven years fast forward
Kid you are a man
Walking through snow in tow a charming family band
Landing a life so far removed from what you know
How nice a song should surface while you’re on the road
Trials and tribulations, seems I’m going deaf
Wondering will inspiration show there’s nothing left
Embarrassment and torture, are you serious
The jury’s out the judge would recommend you stop
This way and that way just let it spin
Can’t find a way now to make it fit
These things take time it’s ok to just be happy
This way and that way just let it spin
I’ll find a way yes I’ll write again
It’s so goddamn hard just to sit with this

Departures

What goes up must come down
Where you're landing is not where you took off
It's cold where you touch down
And I'm lonely but I know you're happy now
I'm learning how to understand the path I'm walking
No slowing down, I won't quit
I'm learning how to understand that I might be the one
Who delivers you to departures
I guess I'll hang around
Nothing happening, got the whole week to myself
I'm starting fresh again
But it's ok because you get how I feel
When you're up in the sky everything feels so light
Down on the ground even the shadows are heavy
Straight away - grab a bag and hurry
Leave a light on for the dog
Don't look back, she'll never see our faces
Straight away - grab a bag and hurry
Speeding down the interstate
Kiss me now 'cause departures show no mercy
Straight away - rushing through the gates now
If I could, you know I would
Go with you but that's not how it plays out

At A Loss
04:12
|

Sometimes I wonder
If I’m doing it right
No one cares about fireworks
If they ain’t happening at night
I see the sun set
See it rise again
I won’t be done yet
Till I’ve handled regret
Who am I kidding
I lose every bet
A self-inflicted wound
That’s what I’ve been going through
A heart in a coma
But you shocked me back, I’m coming to
I see the sun set
See it rise again
I won’t be done yet
Till I’ve had my regret
I know you’re nervous
Can I clean up this mess
Who am I kidding
I lose every bet
Complete the cycle
Watch me rise again
The same mistakes come
But I’m doing my best
So disappointing
And so in my own head
I lose every bet

Oh Brother

First of all
You got it wrong
You think you're right but
You're not at all
Racquetball
Mowing lawn
It's hard yeah
It's so damn hard
Another
Recover
It's all right
You proved us wrong
When I get home
When shoes are off
I think about things
That I did wrong
Worst of all
I kept mum
Maybe I could've fixed what just dissolved
Another
Recover
That's all right
Life sucks and all
You wasted
Your days and
Night sold you some shiny lie
Dressed up for Halloween
Under a Christmas tree
The new year came and went
It was your birthday
On a Saturday
I knew it must be something bad
Where did you go
I should've known
Another
Recover
Oh brother
It ain't so bad

My Life, My Luck
03:36
|

When I looked up across the room
Staring at the microphone
I thought you’d won
My time had come, it’s gonna hurt
Wishing for a stand-in
But I didn’t have one
Oh God, I should’ve done better
That love, I’ll never forget her
The times I wanna remember
Fade out the longer I let ‘em
Tragedies strike and memories don’t repeat
Once they’re gone it’s quiet out on the street
Check your pulse and take a breath
You’re in this for now
Bygones be gone moving on somehow
And now I sit across the room
Smiling at your puzzled look
As you’re reading a book
Oh God, it’s good to be happy
Army of emotion attacks me
My life I can’t overstate it
My luck it’s so underrated (Even when)
My life
My luck

Beautiful

Running like an engine
An American antique
Shows some wear but it doesn't stop
Wake up in a cold sweat
You were dreaming of another life, unfulfilled
Don't you know
Know that you are beautiful
Time goes by and you smile
'Cause I know
Know that life's a miracle
Walking by the ocean
I'm reminded of a time
Different plans and new apartments
Raining with the lights out
Watching Stranger Things in bed
Hotel Chelsea on vacation
And I hope
You know that you are beautiful
Time goes by and you smile
Do you know
I'm thinking it'd be beautiful
In a white kind of light
'Cause I know
Know that life's a miracle
I think it's a mystery
Or could it be destiny
Either way is fine by me
And I know
Know that you are beautiful
Take some time
Stay a while
And I'll show you life can be a miracle

Future Laugh
01:48

One day we’ll have
A future laugh
And maybe things will all work out
One day we’ll walk
A wooded path
And maybe find a green giraffe
I don’t think we’re gonna find
A way to fill up all this time
But I know it’s gonna fly
So let’s just laugh as days go by
One day we’ll have
A future laugh
And boy I hope it all works out
