Goodbye
I say to you
From the sidewalk
In the rearview
Words I
Wish I could say
Slowly fall out
On the freeway
Where did
All the time go
All these moments
Thought I had more
Goodbye
I say to you
From the sidewalk
In the rearview

The Campfire

She'll run me out of business
She'll run me out of breath
She ran from all who loved her
She ran from east to west
So I'm packing my belongings
I will leave it all behind
I will find her because I love her
And one day I will call her mine
There's rivers up these mountains
Where pine trees meet the air
I think she's at the trails end
I think I'll find her there
I hope she's at the campfire
And waiting there for me
But if I never find her
At least I know she's free

September Skies

Green blades of grass
Under September skies
In the field where you kissed me
With wide open eyes
You pushed me into that
Old shallow pond
And in those murky waters
I first fell in love
From the rearview
How I’ll miss you
In the city
Don’t forget me
Bring me back to the field of my dreams
Where you and I would run around free
Dancing in the moonlight, with the fireside and stars around me
Bring me back to that late September
You can have my heart for now, forever
If I could wind the time back then I would
If only life could always be so good
These traffic fires
And the smog in LA
All those dreams of success
Begin to burn away
I want to slow down
Like our small town
In the city
Don’t forget me
Now I’m back home
In the summer,
And we’ve moved on
But its not over

Seeds (Round and Round)
04:32

Sick and tired of breaking ground
The burning forest, a piercing sound
I was lost in the apathy
What I found in a memory
Remnants of a song I sang before
Golden cities we built ourselves
Expecting heaven to save this hell
I was lost in the apathy
What I found in a memory
Remnants of a song I sang before
Textbooks in our history classes
Chapters of the world in ashes
Every time I learned my lesson
Round and round and round it goes again
Preaching what I fail to practice
Promises that never lasted
Sewing seeds inside a casket
Round and round and round it goes again
Fluidly frozen in place
Windows of hope that we shatter
Roads that divide in our wake
For all the kids that come after
So many simple mistakes
Wondering what really matters
What do we give when we take
Signs of impending disaster
