crickets & frogs
on the first day we came
down to the lake it rained
and on the second day it cleared
so we all sang these old songs
to an orchestra of crickets & frogs
on the september day
down at the wake we laid
with all the wheel and bones
the wheels and bones
when we all prayed for your loss
the fallen ones the fallen one
god.
my intentions are strong
but my ambition is quite low
on the way on the way home
my intentions are wrong
but i'll build you a new home
on the way on the way
home.

the odyssey
i'd spit out my mouth if i could
i'd run my lips into the woods
make them a home out of sticks and stones
lock the latch so they can never come home
turn around turn around and face me
or you'll never see the next day
turn around look away, look away
turn around turn around and face me
or you'll never see the next day
turn around and look away from
the blue sirens eyes
she'll have her crazy days
"let me out, let me go"
i have myself to blame
"let her out, let her go"

the wisher
i wish i was oblivious
to everything i know
maybe then i would go outside
i wish you were not oblivious
to all around you
maybe then you would stay inside
but i know that's not right
and i know you'll be ok, fine, alright
i just have trouble letting go
i wish we would lie
i wish would fight
i wish we had time
i wish we could spend all night
i wish we could be
i wish we could be all of these things
truthfully
but i know that's not right
and i know you'll be alright
trouble letting go

cabin in the woods
i'll never build that
cabin in the woods
i'll never kill a deer
and i'll never leave here
picture me off the rail
picture me off the rail
'cause i can't face today
picture me off the rails
slowly chugging away
i'll never be
a trapper in the woods
and i'll never feel the cold
like i know i should
no more warnings
no foreboding
the way that i wanted to
the way that i wanted to
the way that i the way that i
the way that i the way that i want
the fish always the fish always
come the way i come today
i know you fade, i know you well, i know
but i know i can't stay
ragazza
i love the way you are
save it for a bad bad day
show me the way
show me the way
show me today
i can feel the coldness in your face
i can feel two birds drenched in the rain
