Coffee & Patience

i don't wanna get up but i can't be still
the depths of the ocean are pulling me in
and i'll drown if i don't swim
i don’t wanna end up where the rivers flow
it’s an easy way out, and that is good to know
but not the way to go
when
all my dreams are nearby
could pick them down like apples from the sky
if only I knew how to fly
i’m not too bad
but nothing to write home about
no superpowers
not going out to
fight villains in the midnight hours
no superpowers
days are like water, seeping through my hands
it feels like a race and I'm running in sand
towards a promised land
i wish for a will that is made out of lead
flying with superheroes over my head
but I have to walk instead
all my dreams are nearby
could pick them down like apples from the sky
if only I knew how to fly
i’m not too bad
but nothing to write home about
no superpowers
not going out to
fight villains in the midnight hours
no superpowers
but i’ve got fears and ambitions
hope and defiance
it’s nothing amazing
just coffee and patience
take me the distance
coffee and patience
just hope they serve wine at the terminal station

A Sad Song
04:03

happiness hold me
even if it's just for
this one smile
longing to fully
grasp this feeling
it is stranger than love
stranger than love
happiness and i
just walking together
in sunshine and heather
nothing but calm
my very being lifted up
by the song of
a thousand happy people
so i missed the train
for time has a taste of indifference
i think it is
anywhere but here
my very being lifted up
by the song of a
thousand happy people
to be happy
is a sad song
happiness you’re
stranger than love
happiness you’re
stranger than love
my very being lifted up
by the song of
a thousand happy people

open ten to four
i’m going through
an exhibition
of statues i’ve seen before
some are happy
some are sad
and this one
looks just like my dad
no one listens
and no one is going anywhere
it’s a lonely place
but i’m still there
open ten to four
i’m still around
we are louder
when there’s no sound
no one listens
and no one is going anywhere
it’s a lonely place
but I’m still here
ten to four
i’m still around
cleaning up the floor
we’re louder without sound
louder without sound
listen one last time
to my silly dreams
we’re louder without sound
louder without sound
my bags are packed
i’ll miss you all but i know
you’ll do better without me
open ten to four
i’m going through
an exhibition
of statues i’ve seen before
no one listens
and no one is going anywhere
it’s a lonely place
but i’m still here

Treetop Tune (demo)
05:22
|

|
showers
gray curtains
and broken hours
hiding away won't clear the sky
the rain lingers on
i've been
looking ever deeper
for you
down in the woods I see you cry
i think I know why
would you
would you
would you
leave
everything behind
don't look back
don't rewind
could you
could you
could you
breathe
and not see her smile
don't look back
don't rewind
this is my treetop tune
my hand to you
happy sky blue
soon you'll
wake up
to the sound of rivers
taking the rain down to the sea
here comes the sun
would you
would you
would you
leave
everything behind
don't look back
don't rewind
this is my treetop tune
my hand to you
happy sky blue
this is my treetop tune
my song to you
happy sky blue
this is my treetop tune
my hand to you
