Take A While

crying on the subway

you and i
we were so naive
us against time
setting out to the sea

wish i knew what i was thinking back then
acting so careless
floating around in my own head
memories feeling too taboo
with those kisses in the silence
and the poems that were written for

you and I
we were so naive 
maybe you’ll wait around for me
us against time
setting out to the sea

you and i
we were so naive 
maybe you’ll wait around for me
us against time
setting out to the sea

just wait for a second
for all my transgressions
to settle down to aggression
i know that you get the message

we always thought that this wouldn’t end
but when i hear your name now
it feels just like the life i left
it’s funny how i’ll still think about you
with those kisses in the silence
and the poems that were written for

you and i
we were so naive 
maybe you’ll wait around for me
us against time
setting out to the sea 
maybe you’ll wait around for me

you and i
we were so naive
maybe you’ll wait around for me
us against time
setting out to the sea 
maybe you’ll wait around for me

you & i

Please be by my side
Or otherwise I’ll cause a mess
One of these days you will see

Laying down in the grass
Another moment of the past
That has led me where I am 

And I have never been older
Or been younger
Than I am
Today with you

And I don't wanna see you no more
please I just wanna feel like before
Cause I don't wanna see you no more
For God's sake, please please, no more

Pastimes are past times
Bid adieu to your girlish days
Love’s unhappy when love’s away

Let bygones be bygones
Emoji means emoticon?
So ;( sad emoji with a tear

And since then we're all floating in space
So many thoughts have been lost in this maze
Still, I beg peace
As we confront this mess

And I don't wanna see you no more
please I just wanna feel like before
Cause I don't wanna see you no more
For God's sake, please please, no more

Pastimes

Past Times

Throwing Bricks

Gone Too Soon

You know I miss the music of the Mamas & the Papas 
And the holes in my blue jeans.
‘Cause who else but a flower child could listen to Donovan and 
Tell you what it means?
The Byrds, they took you flying, took you 8 miles high, 
Then they’d lightly settle down.
And there’s no satisfying the Rolling Stones and their 19th Nervous Breakdown.

The Beatles tried to tell you all you needed was love if you’d  
Just peace a chance.
And all across the country they were feeling so good when they
Hit the streets to dance.
Listen to the message of the Lovin’ Spoonful, ‘cause you  know it is for free.
What a day for a daydream, and a daydream’s still good enough for me.

The music’s gonna take you where you’ve never been before.
Gonna take you to the edge and open up the door.

Crosby, Still, Nash and Young were teaching all their children you should
Know your parents well.
And Dylan had us seeing all the multiples of reasons we should
Ring the freedom bell.
The Band was hypnotizing,Joni Mitchell fantasizing 
‘bout the Woodstock of our youth.
If the radio would play it, they felt the need to say it, 
‘cause we all should hear the truth.

The music’s gonna take you where you’ve never been before.
Gonna take you to the edge and open up the door.

My friends, they tell me, “Scott, you’re living in the past 
And there’s just no future there.
Nostalgia is fine, but it will never last, music won’t take you anywhere.
I look at them with a tear in my eye, and I tell them they are wrong.
I’ve been twice around the world and I never left - never left my song.
Whoa, listen to the music. All the time


Music

produced by me 

if words won’t say all , i’m frozen by your presence 

i can’t hold myself that tall , 

i’m hoping you can get this , 


oh your poison in my heart 

feel you toying to forget it 

i’m not focused on the start 

with all these years , in tension with you


i’m broken from your art , cause i know that man u draw is me 

that painting looks bizarre , it’s almost of us on your balcony

when you’d hold on my arm , that’s why i noticed that you felt for me 

i broke it all apart , told u lies , thought u would envy me 

it only made you start , to hope i’d see you’re ready for me 

you’re sweetness on my tongue , a craving , i get endlessly 


i’m craving 

someone like you i’m chasing 

i can’t keep breaking , replacing you 

it’s shameless 


so crazy , 

for you i’m crazy 

& i can’t save it , keep me waiting

light before dusk
