Pt 1: I walk down a brightly lit hallway- I can see to it's end I can't turn around and against this I can't defend If I can't change this Then I wish I didn't know Pt 2: I don't want to shy away I will return to that lighted lake one day and I- I don't want to go back home I'll just wander 'round making footprints in the snow and I Promise to you That I'll be there when you leave and I'll be back by three and I won't be back and i wish I didn't know Spring will too soon stain the trees and I'll lose what made me "me" as the leaves they die and they fall back to the ground Forming brightly colored mounds and I'm back to where I started from and I'll be there until they leave and I'll be back by three and I'll promise this and I wish i didn't know

Untitled 01:24
I am sitting on a couch Watching my good friend's mouth as he talks about our old friend and how he'll never be that person again I'm just too far away to change anything nowadays I am looking at that game I used to play as I tell you that tomorrow will be a better day and even if its not and it is just how you thought it would be I'm just too far away to change anything nowadays

I cannot say why Blue sounds gave me my life I am not sure if they Will rise from the morning today But without them I might not have risen This morning Fourteen days have passed Since I thanked them last But I was not sure if i would Today or if I even could But without them I might not have risen This morning

I can't tell if your eyes are closed blue billowing curtains hide the stage Will they open soon? That bookcase in your room Will shed each and every page Lie down in your bed and look up at fluorescent stars Stuck not so high above your head Protecting you I can't tell if you are smiling if i could the situation would be so very nice and your niceness Makes me feel quite so very good and so very bad for being that one who had always thought he could Lie down in your bed and look up at fluorescent stars Stuck not so high above your head Protecting you Like I could not do

about

I recorded this all first take tonight. This group of songs are the result of a few weeks of messing around after a long musical dry spell.
