I’d just like to blame somebody else
The mess that I made on somebody else
The ground it's all concrete I poured it myself
The soil remembers the step of the lynx and the wolf

It would be nice to float on the clouds
With nothing to pull me down
There's too much weight
That I put on the world around

All of the voices are calling out answers
You know I’ve been listening now what was the question
At the risk of being misheard let’s bring back the wolf
The danger of death that comes from the woods

It would be nice to hide in a room
Directional light on my face
But the world around
Needs me to come out of that place

Its hard to talk to you
I feel like my words can’t break through
You’re already a few feet under
Buried with kings and with queens

Danger of Death

Danger Of Death

I started with a sample created by Matt Politoski called Up. I also played the Arp Odyssey and the trumpet. Drums by Nicholas Cerbone.

Odyssey

Better than Me

Better Than Me

Umbrella Ship

Astronomer's Garden

Underwater

A deep dive into this process
Passing it from hand to hand
There's a word on both my shoulders
The catchphrases and slogans

Don’t give me blatant lies
And don’t go and patronize me at all

I’ve spent some time in this topic
You wont capture the essence
The conversation we could have
If anybody would listen
 
But I don't want to change what I believe
I'm not good at listening

This whole time your life has been in your hands
And I know there's things you can't control
Which ones are crucial is it the place that you live
The faces that come and go
But the earth revolves around the sun after all

I talk to you at work
You have these thoughts about the way to live
You think it's in the horoscope
But I don't think it helps you at all

The month that you were born
The phases of the moon
They take the focus off of you

Deep Dive

Bright Wing

Flying

Looking up through the trees 
I see your name upon the breeze
And falling leaves, and apples green 
But I cannot hear your voice today

You mimic all of nature
You mimic all of nature
You are quiet as a whisper
You're quiet as a whisper

Cause the birds are all asleep today
The silence it is deafening
It makes me think out loud
And there isn't anyone around

I question everything I know
In the early evening glow
I know that you are out there still
But I cannot feel a thing today

My breathe it still comes to me
And strength is still inside my soul
But I wish you were more tangible
Instead of just the leaves you move

Cause I need someone to hold me
When the silence it is deafening
I need someone to hold me
The silence it is deafening

Oh won't you be with me
Oh won't you be with me
Oh won't you be with me
Oh won't you be with me
