Good for you is the words you
Can't undo,
Birds in flocks we all dive together
You wanted to be the one to say
"I wrecked your home"
But you walked into shambles,
A vague reflection of the walls I built for my own sake
Mud, blood and money whole countless hours we put into taking you down
We sent out our senses to see how wishing would never fix the broken.
Falling asleep under the roof we lost
Blown away by the wind
The tapping could not trip us
Birds in flocks two times wiser
None the wiser, we flew into water
Stirringly,
We sat a-stirred
We slept in open water
If its time to go,
I'll stick around and help you get going
There's a million things about me to know
You say it's time for us to go
They will find us buried under our graces,
Looking lost, finding familiar faces
We flew in the sky tonight
We flew until our tongues were tied

The Leading Role
Sarah used to dream of portraying somebody else,
Now she's dreaming to be on a bed of nails,
Forced perspective of a blind man, a world of lights that never stop for a moment,
A world of blank walls, blanketed in pictures of your yesterday
The man you once loved is now the man you wish you wouldn't have
Heavy handed verbiage across your chest,
Thinking thoughts changed everything
Lynn wanted nothing but to have nothing,
And now she has everything she ever wanted,
Except for a soul continuously haunted
Brought in for the picture show,
Picturesque in a brilliant world designed to never let go
Maybe now it can go on

Somewhere at Sail (2012)
In a town full of doves,
Celebrated no weddings with no love
Around every corner another broken man,
A broken clan,
The teeth of knives was our familiar enemy
She said don't wait,
don't wait,
There's plenty of fish and you're bait
They'll keep thinking you're great but you're not real
You were never real,
A fake to be a meal
So come along,
All hands on deck,
We're all a wreck,
A nervous soul in need of check
Stay different and crazy
Our memories will remain hazy,
We will stay hazy
They clean the corpse of the clouds bearing,
Dead men and women cannot help staring,
Feeling like this life is not daring,
Hop in the rain,
Get on the train
Memories will only bring us pain
I'm somewhere at sail,
And you'd never fail
To be my reminder of who I
Wonder I will be someday,
Don't leave - just stay we will work this out
We will work this out
Don't stay to pout,
I need the woman inside you,
To find way to find you,
Because the both of me need the both of you too
Celebrated no weddings with no love
Around every corner another broken man,
A broken clan,
