Nowhere Else to Go EP

ANA11370 Coming Undone

Coming Undone

I can’t keep the peace
can’t keep the waters still
Every bit of my heart
Is like a battlefield
Like an avalanche
With nowhere to run
The waters rising
And I’m coming undone

Well I’ve never seen
Things at odds like this
Where we’re all aboard
The same sinking ship
It’s an hourglass
Saying time is gone
The waters rising
And I’m coming undone

Like a Holy Ghost
In the back of my mind
Living in unknowns
And wondering why
there is no relief
As far as the eye can see

Well our path from here
Is a mystery
Holding onto hope
But it’s fleeting
It’s a waiting game
Now the dark has come
The waters rising
and I’m coming undone

ANA11369 Nowhere Else to Go

Nowhere Else To To

Nothing is as it was
How do we begin again
Every sight is a stranger
In an unknown land

Got my faith in a chokehold
Nothing else can get away
Hold on tight my dear, it’s uphill from here
There’s nowhere else to go

You don’t seem like yourself
But then neither do I
I Can’t shake this, can’t walk it off
It’s holding on for life

I just want to shed this skin
Want to jump to another frame
Hold on tight my dear
It’s uphill from here
There’s nowhere else to go

Wait for me darling
I can see you’re starting to fray
I’m here with you
And The dark won’t get to take its claim

Well I’ve heard the sun
Rising in the East
Brings a newness, a clean slate
that we desperately need

Well I’m staring right at it
And you’re staring too

Hold on tight my dear
It’s uphill from here
There’s nowhere else to go

Hold on tight my dear
It’s uphill from here
There’s nowhere else to go

ANA11303 Safe With You

here's more unknown than there is known
In this ever changing place we call home
the fears and threats weigh on my heart
It all buries me deeper in the dark

But I'm safe with you
In the black in blue
I'm safe with you
When I'm down and out don't know what to do
When evils coming up from the ground
And the angels have all turned back around
I know it's true
I'm safe with you

Another break in reported on our street
Another headline robbing me of sleep
Doing my part feels like nothing at all
In a system broken all along

But I'm safe with you
In the black in blue
I'm safe with you
When I'm down and out don't know what to do
When evils coming up from the ground
And the angels have all turned back around
I know it's true
I'm safe with you

But I'm safe with you
In the black in blue
I'm safe with you
When I'm down and out don't know what to do
When evils coming up from the ground
And the angels have all turned back around
I know it's true
I'm safe with you

ANA11046 My Love Looks Good On You

You got that look in your eye
Like a child seeing the ocean for the first time
Studying the way the blue stretches left to right
The passersby leave their marks along the sand

I've seen it all
You kept your heart locked up inside a steel vault
The weight turned your walk into a slow crawl
But now you let your heart reside upon your sleeve

One day our bones won't hold the weight they used to
The lines around our eyes will start to show through
But the words I've always spoken will still ring true
My Love looks good on you

You've got that sound in your voice
Like leaves holding tightly to their tree
Thoughts are clear but words are trembling
Won't you let yourself come down and freely speak

CHORUS

ANA11371 You're What Makes a Good Day

You’re what makes a good day

I don’t need rivers and lakes
Or an island far away
I don’t have expensive taste
Barely a dollar to my name
I don’t need top shelf wine
Or to stare at stars at night
I don’t need bells and whistles
Fancy crystal
I just need your love

I don’t need fortune and fame
a marquee to show my name
I Don’t have a jet plane
Or much critical acclaim
I Don’t need much applause
I Don’t need much of anything at all
I don’t need bells and whistles
Fancy crystal
I just need your love

You’re what makes a good day
Even when life’s not going my way
When you say I am yours you are mine
Oh I feel just fine
You’re what makes a good day

I don’t need revelry
I’ll stick with simplicity
I don’t need flattery
Those words don’t mean that much to me
I don’t need a parade
You can spare me the accolades
I don’t need bells and whistles
Fancy crystal
I just need your love

You’re what makes a good day
Even when life’s not going my way
When you say I am yours you are mine
Oh I feel just fine
You’re what makes a good day

When the music fades
And the band has left the stage
When all that remains
Is the one who shares my name
Well, that’s just fine with me
Oh it’s more than I could have ever dreamed
I don’t need bells and whistles
Fancy crystal
I just need your love

I don’t need bells and whistles
Fancy crystal
I just need your love
