Current
02:37
|

Caught in the current I always go
Caught in the current of what I know
Caught in the current, where does it lead?
Caught in the current, what’s meant for me?
Caught in the current, but I got time
Caught in the current, a restless mind
Caught in the current I hear her name
Caught in the current, ain't it a shame

Turn
05:39

I can’t seem to turn
I can’t seem to turn
I can’t seem to turn
I can’t seem to turn it around
I can’t seem to turn
I can’t seem to turn it around
Turn it around
Turn it around
Turn it around
Turn it around
I can’t seem to
I don’t need to
Will I ever turn?
I can’t seem to turn it around
Try to turn again
I can’t seem to turn It around
Turn it around
Wonder will I ever turn?

Counting
03:23

Counting my fingers
Hoping I don’t get five
Counting my fingers
And hoping I don’t get five
Counting my fingers
I know I won’t have much time
Counting my fingers
And hoping I don’t get five
All of the universe at my disposal
But all I want is you
Counting my fingers
Another chance to revive
Counting my fingers
And hoping I don’t get five
Unspeakable fantasies I can control here
But I come back for you
Counting my fingers
One two three four five

I won’t sleep tonight
I won’t sleep tonight
Throughout the day I’m half awake
And now near all my light’s been taken
I’m left with the night
Just trying to keep my eyes open
Now it seems I’m all alone and
I just try to think bright
Pressure building ‘round my eyes
Colors blurring to my sides
What am I gonna find?
Should I grab ahold this line?
Though I'm scared to face the climb
What am I gonna find
On the banks of my mind?
I won’t sleep tonight
Oh no, no I, I won’t sleep tonight
And won’t be fated by the motions
Battle cries now softly spoken
In the dead of the night
It's getting colder by the minute
Hard to feel it when you’re in it
In the heat of the fight
Pressure building ‘round my eyes
Colors blurring to my sides
What am I gonna find?
Should I grab ahold this line?
Though I'm scared of what I’ll find
What am I gonna find
On the banks of my mind?
Stream of unconsciousness
Trying to take its hold
Receptors all been dulled
I've had nothing but time
Yet I've nothing to show
Nowhere feels like home
Finally, the dawn chorus
Early morning glow
What if I'm in too deep?
Just wait until this slows
I can’t just fall asleep
And give in to the flow
Will the banks prove too steep?
Only forever knows
Should I just fall asleep?
And take this where it goes
Surely I’m in too deep
I cannot feel my toes
I should just fall asleep
There’s comfort in the known
To be a counting sheep
It’s safer I suppose
I should just fall asleep
Forever never knows
I should just fall asleep
I should just drift off tooooo

Foster Wickham

Foster Wickham thought real fast but moved real slow
Hope had a way about her that he’d never known
She was taken but she did awaken
Something that was always there
She sat beside him and said, “hey there, what’s with you?”
Foster said “I am here purely for the view”
They took in the world together
Laughed and he wished it would never end
We’re separated by nothing more than time and space
My love pays them no mind
Could you call me when you have time?
Sitting, watching, waiting for a sign
Don’t worry about me I am fine
But could you call me when you have time?
Hope sat down there, pensive, this time all alone
Watching funny faces buried in their phones
It wasn’t mere nostalgia
It was clear that something else had brought her there
We’re separated by nothing more than time and space
My love pays them no mind
Could you call me when you have time?
Sitting, watching, waiting for a sign
Don’t worry about me I am fine
But could you call me when you have time?
Anticipating, light is fading
But I can see an outline that reminds
Take me back to more colorful times
Sitting, watching, waiting for a sign
Should I hit send or let this die?
Surely futile after all this time

Find Me Here
02:36
|
|||
In between the joy and the pain
You can always find me
The sunshine and the rain
You can always find me here
In between stuck in the mud
And soaring high above
Looking ‘round hoping that I
Won't crash down, lose it all
And that's fine by me
Not gonna ever leave
You know where to find me
In between the time of my life
Having a conversation
And feeling like I swallowed a knife
Crying out in frustration, oh
And that's fine by me
I've got all I need
You know where to find me
Well it's hard to see
But if you ever need me
You know, yeah you know where to find me

Jealous of Everyone
02:56
|

I’m jealous of everyone
I’m jealous of everyone
Seems like you’re all having so much fun
I am jealous of everyone
Hold steady, our time will come
Hold steady, our time will come
Seems like they’re all having so much fun
Just hold steady, our time will come
They say that comparison’s the thief of joy
And I think that they might have a point
But the fact still remains
I’m feeling quite plain next to you
I’m jealous of everyone
I’m jealous of everyone
Seems like you’re all having so much fun
I am jealous of everyone
Oh I’m jealous of everyone

Waking Life
03:54
|
|||
So alive, felt like just yesterday
But then I came to
I’d slept right through it all
Oh my god, now how it’s been so long
Making dreams of you
While I slept through it all
Slept through it all

Better
05:26
|
|||
Well, you can call me lazy
For lack of a better word
Fix me up to feel crazy
For wanting better
I’ve been working this shit job
For lack of a better one
I’ve been singing this same song
For wanting better
Better comes to those who wait they say
Better things are surely on their way
I guess you could say I’m lonely
For lack of a better word
Fix my heart and console me
For wanting better
I’ve been sleeping with this girl
For lack of a better one
Been dipping out of this weird world
For wanting better
Better to be lucky so they say
Better to have never been today
Bask in the glow of this tired night
Moving picture distract from what is going on inside
Keep an eye on colors getting blurrier
As you save a smile for a day you’ll deem worthier
Time moves real slow until you want it to
Don't you let all those loose ends be the end of you
For want of a better world (Watching, waiting, always wanting more)
For want of a better world (Dreaming, scheming, always wanting more)
For want of a better world (Doubting, counting, always wanting more)
For want of something better

Here / Tomorrow
07:47
|
|||
There was never gonna be
More than a dream to me
There it’s just make believe
I’ll always be right here
Right where I used to be
Is right where I’m gonna be
Just as you left me
You can always find me here
----------------------------------------------------
Time, flowing faster than before
Light, scarcer now in this old world
When today feels lost
Don’t you forget the cost of thinking
There is always tomorrow
There is this girl I used to know
I loved her but could not let go
My heart grew stale
Now don’t you ever fail
To see that there ain’t always tomorrow
