“MYSELF TOGETHER”
verse
Once around the sun with you
I’m dreaming
Now I’m left with a plan undone because of you
we’re spinning
prechorus
I was in love with a place in your mind
Folded into that warm light
I was in love with a place in your mind
Wandering throughchorus
What if it all comes loose and I’m reduced to nothing
Can’t seem to hold myself together though I’ve tried
I’ve given all my heart in hopes this might be something
Watch it unfold now just to find out if i’m rightverse
Sleep don’t waste the day
The view is dreamy
Promise me you’ll stay
True to your meaningPrechorus
I was in love with a place in your mind
Folded into that warm lightChorus 2x

DOE-EYED
Verse:
Doe-eyed and stayed for the wandering dream
How I’ll remain here to see what you mean
So walk with your arms up to feel your way
And I’ll stay where I’ve been latelyChorus:
And the faster we go is nothing safe anymore
I’ll bring the walls around us down
And the brighter we burn see upon our return
Find out once and for all what’s there
I don’t know if I’ll ever get homeV2
I’ve known forever and not said one word
Quick recall your fears I’ll wait my turn
And all that I have to give is yours
If it takes rearranging I’m here I’m waiting, oh lately latelyChorus

WE CAN’T STAY HERE
verse:
Blue skies before me this way to the sun
You’ll find me there or else i’ve gone
But when does this view become the perfect scene
Won’t you meet me when it’s startingChorus:
We can’t stay here
to fill the space
It’s so unclear
Don’t lie down darling
If sleep takes us we’re doneThese are the days of color and light
Unsure of the future but this moment feels right
We cant stay still there’s just too much to see
And it calls to me endlesslyWhere do we go from here now that we’re falling
Through the atmosphere and into somewhere new
I’m beginning to think that life has left us all the answers
And one by one we’ll find whats in all of us -

DEPTHS
Verse:
I had no clue that we were going down
‘Til I was swallowing the ocean
The sea rushed in and pushed the air from my mouth
While I was still proving my devotionSo what could be gained from holding on for more
When it seems we’ve surely reached the end
We’re sinking fast still I don’t know what for
At this point it’s useless to pretendChorus:
So let me be alone for now
I’m feeling like I can turn this all around
I’m sinking with the weight of silver sounds
Just a little time and I can figure it all outVerse:
And in your depths there are such sights to see
If light could only reach this far
But the pressure’s building and it’s breaking me
I wish I’d known this from the startChorus
Bridge:
So let’s stop taking all of this so seriously
It’s the worrying that wears you down
Just think of something new something I can do for you
And still we circle round and roundChorus 2x

ISOTOPES
Verse:
Stop you’re walking down the same path as before
You’re just lost and wandering in circles nothing more
And the words change but the meaning stays the same
And this landscape is the same we’ve been looking for daysPrechorus:
Would it be better if we just let it go
And call this what we both know
A realizationChorus:
I’ve come to return your heart
It’s safer here I suppose
And while it was the truth in part
Mostly lies I had toldV2:
You’ve changed so much
New exciting ways to see your colors
You’re brave honest
But tell me what it is that makes you hungerPrechorus:
Can’t shake the feeling that I’ve been here before
I’ve fallen through this same floor
A recreationChorus
Bridge:
Starlight, oh starlight what do I know
Of dreams that lived so long ago
Last night you were half right, oh what can I say
Fear of my failures will haunt me forever anywayChorus

NO WONDER
Verse:
Open your eyes
Try not to move at all
There’s really no cause for alarm
But you nearly diedIt came on so swift
Like a knife it just cut to the quick
And the world spun around it seemed a dream
But morning still camePrechorus:
Dear it’s only life I know we can make it around we can make it through
On the other side
We’ll understand it’s just a stage we were going throughChorus:
Oh me oh my what a blunder
In this state I’m in it’s no wonder
It’s commonplace
To play this gameV2:
When you were here
You were just barely here
But I find it comforting
To know the things you’re capable ofPrechorus
