Sunlight Scene

No one knew what colors do
Until you mix them into two
A deeper blue blends with the white
To make a river in a sunlight scene
No one saw the colors fade
The sky turned blue to a dark gray
The faces withered in the page
By a river in a sunlight scene
Painted view
Attaching you
Let you colors wind
Like a river in a sunlight
A river in a sunlight
A river in a sunlight scene
Let’s watch the colors run
Until they cover everything
Painted view
Attaching you
Let you colors find
A river in a sunlight
A river in a sunlight
A river in a sunlight scene

Sherri's Life
04:12

Nobody told you where to look
Only to find the nerve to try
Will that beat in your chest let you sleep tonight ?
Tomorrow will come just like the last
Today felt like such a waste of time
Will that beat of your heart let you rest tonight ?
Under the silence
Of a shooting star in the sky
Were all dreams just made to die
To make a fool of us ?
Sherri
Dancing in the moonlight
Raise your glass to the sunrise
And the vanishing of time
Sherri
Children play in the driveway
Pictures hang in the hallway
Of a face that hides two sides of life
I know that sentences run on too long
Its hard to get your point across
When there’s never enough time
Under the silence
Of a shooting star in the sky
Were you dreams just made to die
Or do they live on inside all of us
Sherri
Dancing in the moonlight
Raise your glass to the sunrise
And the vanishing of time
Sherri
Children grew up beside you
Showed them what true love can do
With a face to hide both sides of life

Aviso Amor

Her love is like a potion
Can’t tell when he’d had enough
The days play in slow motion
Always waking up before the night is done
Her heart was beating faster
Much faster than it ever does
Feels like she’s chasing after
Something invisible but warm to the touch
Nobody has to be alone tonight
Nobody has to be in love
I want to rise up
All the will i can find
I want to tell you how it feels
To be connected to a heart that wasn’t mine
Nobody has to be alone tonight
Nobody has to be in love
I want to rise up
All the will i can find
I want to tell you how it feels
To be connected to a heart that wasn’t mine

Cabrillo

I made a left
Down the hill
To the yellow lights
On that Ferris wheel
We were there
Where did you go Cabrillo?
Cabrillo
School was done
Missed reunions
I got a job
At a gas station
We moved one
Where did you go Cabrillo?
Cabrillo
The silence of an empty house
(Cabrillo)
Vanished without a sound
Will we ever see you again?
Twenty one
Turned into Thirty Something
I fell in love by accident
She caught me
Who took you Cabrillo?
Cabrillo
The Silence of an empty house
(Cabrillo)
Vanished without a sound
will we ever see you again
I drove my child
To her first day of school
I waved goodbye
And I thought of you
Children grow
Will they know Cabrillo?
Cabrillo

Island Terminal
03:32
|

Just past the Pyrenees
In the Luminary Hills
The lights are dancing with the sun
At the Island Terminal
I watch the planes come in
They circle then they set
One after the other
Little windows between two jets
We’re bound for mystery
Nothing is certain in any way
You can believe in Devine eternity
Whatever gets you through the day
The roads between us
All lead to the interstate
Will we find each other in a park
Or down some distant highway
Who’s going to love you ?
Who’s going to love you now ?
No one
No one I know
Is landing at the island terminal
You’re lifting off with the wind
Shadows cast below
Clouds helping you disappear
Whiter than the snow
No path is permanent
The next step could be a mistake
Will you make your next connection
Before it flies away ?
Who’s going to love you?
Who’s going to love you now?
No one
No one I know
is landing at the island terminal
No one
No one I know
Is landing at the island terminal
Just past he pyrenees
In the luminary hills
The lights are setting with the sun
At the end of a runway

Are We There Yet?
04:25
|

Sitting alone at the top of a hill
You could see in his face he was prepared
Blocking his view with 24 hour cable news
He’s been waiting his whole for some bomb to fall
Are we there yet
To the ending
Of our time spent
Being here ?
Born in home
Haded keys to the thrown
You could tell by his face that he was scared
Circle of friends
From Sunday school to Yale weekends
They’ve been waiting their whole life for something to rule
Are we there yet
To the ending
Of our patience with them
Is there weight left
In the system
To tip the balance towards justice
What a feeling to be alive
And its such a wonderful day
I think ill take a walk outside
And smile all my cares away
Finally passed
Graduated top of class
You could tell in her eyes that she was strong
Dreams of a view
Overlooking 5th avenue
She’s been waiting her whole life for this moment to come
Are we there yet
To the ending
Of pretending life is fair
Is there room left
In the future
To be honest with ourselves
What a time to be alive
And its such a wonderful day
Im going to take a walk outside
I hope that I see you today
Are we there yet
Are we there yet
Are we there yet
Are we there yet

Flowers

Flowers in a flood
Still standing in the water towards the sun
The colors of each pedal in the mud
Living on through it all
flowers in the snow
Still growing through the ice melting below
Still searching for some light through a window
Living on through it all
I’m picking one out
To bring home to you
So many of them, how can I choose?
The prettiest one is the hardest to loose
Flowers in the street
Still growing through the cracks in the concrete
The pavement cant hide whats underneath
Living on through it all
I’m picking one out
To bring home to you
So many of them, how can I choose?
The prettiest one is the hardest to loose
Flowers in a flood
Still standing in the water towards the sun
The colors of each of pedal in the mud
Living on through it all
Living through this
All the flowers in a flood stay beautiful

Normal #3
03:38

I used to care about it all
I used to loose it when she Called
Had a dream I wished to live
I had some love I wished to give
Read the writing on the wall
When you try to stand you’re bound to fall
Then building grew to tall
Gotta get used to feeling small
So I gave up on thinking
Can’t stop this boat from sinking
Grabbed a raft from that wall
My fun is done
So im back to normal
Whatever normal was
And I think I’m doing
What a normal person does
Letting go of what you know
I only squint to see
Letting go of what you know
I only went to leave
So if life is formal
Find me my suit
Because I’m back to normal
Whatever normal was
And I think I’m going
What a normal person does
