My Songs

You, Me and the Carbon

I came down that old road today
It haunts my thoughts, and calls my name
Anywhere I roam
I drove till I could barely see
Well it's all for you...you might disagree
But it always felt like home

We should take our time
But could you find your way
And would you know
It was all you wanted...

Fifteen years of bleeding leave a mark you cannot hide
Fifteen more will cauterize the wound
Are you out there searching for a better pound of flesh to bruise?
Cuz we go down, down, down for you

I waited up here all night long
Just to watch your flight, just to hear your song
But only caught the tune
I found the words that you left behind
Full of empty dreams that killed your life
Still wet with morning's dew

And that won't change my mind
But would it change the way that you would know
This was all you needed...

Fifteen years of running took your far away from home
Fifteen more leave not much else to lose
Are you still out looking for the love you know you could never find?
Cuz we go down, down, down for you

I'll give it one more day
I won't give up, no
I would scream your name out loud
Cuz the search is already done
Was it all you wanted
Was it all that you needed too?
Cuz it's all I've got

Fifteen years of fighting leave you bloodied and alone
Fifteen more were hardly yours to choose
So if you're finally tired of picking love up off the floor
It's okay, yeah, it's okay
Cuz we go down, down, down
Cuz we go down, down, down
We go down, down, down...for you

Lyrics: 

The cars on the street are covered in snow
The world woke up white 
& we got no where to go
So we fill our coffee cups with another round
& watch the quiet streets out side as flakes fall to the ground

& we smile to each other, as the record spins around, Merry Christmas

We put our jackets on & go for a walk
the neighbors are building a snowman just down the block
& people share our smiles 
as they can relate
we’re forced to accept the things that we cannot change

So we smile to each other & say
Merry Christmas

Yeah, they called it Ice Storm 2008
We were stuck on the hill 
& so we sledded all day
Pretended work didn't ever exist
& we laughed at all the 
trouble that we were in
& we watched the bold ones 
try to leave
Like the L& Rover on Lizzie's street
As it ping-ponged off parked cars
Before the driver abandoned 
all his chances at the bottom
& we drank hot whiskey apple cider
& caught the bus down to the theatre 
was the happiest bus load 
of people alive, 
as we white-knuckle laughed 
& prayed aloud we don't die 
& there was this pervasive 
post-war feeling
Like a bomb had dropped 
& folks were reeling
But the damage was snow & ice
& it became the common ground that helped us see eye to eye

As we smiled to each other & said 
Merry Christmas

Blood in My Bones

Slowly…let this feeling linger in the air
Savor…every line and every contour
Your skin, your hair, the sight, the touch
Our shadowed forms eclipse this setting sun

Open up your twilight eyes
Let me memorize their color first
I’ll be tracing lines that you will draw
Across the oceans standing in-between

Fingers…trace the path of every fall and rise
Silence…catch your breath before the moment dies
Your face, your smile, the light, the sound
Our shadows fade into this setting sun

Open up your twilight eyes
Let me hear your song without a word
I’ll be tracing lines that you have drawn
Across the empty spaces in-between
And if I have to let go?
And I am left with only outlines
Then let me dance with your ghost
And I will trace the lines again and again

The touch, the taste, your smile, your face
This haunting memory of watching you just walk away
My heart it screams, “Why don’t I follow”?

But now it’s too late
The day is gone
So with this final sunset...

Open up your twilight eyes
Let me memorize their color first
I’ll be tracing lines that you have drawn
Across the universe that’s in-between
So if you really must go...I will cherish every outline
Just let me dance with your ghost
And I will trace the lines again, and again
And maybe in time...
And maybe in another life...
And maybe these lines...

...will lead me back to you

Tracing Lines

Another pin
To mark the places we have been
How many more until we see them all?

These lines are drawn
With strings of yellow, red and brown
Connecting more than trails we walked together

Was it only this last September?
The days grow cold, but I remember

The blisters, boulders, bruises and bourbon
I wandered these trails with you
Someday I’ll look back, trace out these old maps
I want it to be with you

“Where to next?!?”
The question barely passed your lips
I had to smile, because I already know...
“Anywhere! Anytime! C’mon, let’s go!”
You know this feels right; we’ll get lost forever

But time won’t wait; is it now or never?
If it’s our last flight, I’ll still remember

The blisters, boulders, bruises and bourbon
I wandered these trails with you
Someday I’ll go back, head down these worn paths
I want it to be with you

I walked so long only to find my way
Back to these roads we traveled
Would you take my hand? 
Just one more wild adventure 
One more string and marker
So I’ll remember...

The blisters, boulders, bruises and bourbon
I’ll wander these trails with you
Someday I’ll come back, connect every thumbtack
I want it to be with you
I want it to be with you
I want it to be with you

Blisters, Boulders, Bruises and Bourbon
