Oversized Sweater

Half In My Head

How bout we both
Get old real slow
And watch this wrecking ball grow
The wind tonight bites
There’s nowhere to go
Let’s chase him around till he slows

I only hope to find some way to go
through the changes that I can’t control
but it’s awful alone
so how bout we both
we might end up with something to show

pour me some wine
cause each day something dies
it’s not always kind
but it’s always on time

to have something to wake up to
anything at all
we get lost in our ten thousand made up worlds
each one of them false

I carry something that weighs more than life
you see in my shoulders and smile
I think you might too
so how bout we both
put everything down for a while

we all have ideas of how life will go
they’re quite a collection of jokes
some of them float off for no one to find
some of them come back as ghosts

pour me some wine
cause each day something dies
it’s not always kind
but it’s always on time

to have something to wake up to
anything at all
we get lost in our ten thousand made up worlds
each one of them false

til one morning light breaks through
the window and it’s simple once again

How Bout We Both

I found something good
Didn’t have to look
Too far at all

Wisconsin wind
In January carries life I swear
I know it when it cuts between my hair

Already changed
Already broken
I don’t know how this all ends
And it’s okay

Stay through the driven rain
And he and you and I and they
Will find a different way
Living ain’t a promise
It’s an honest mistake
So nothing’s lost and nothing’s gained
And nothing stays unchanged
No nothing stays unchanged
Nothing

I felt something young
Pass through my blood
And find my lungs

I had no choice
I let it free
It became my voice

Now it feels like dawn
To deliver one more song

Walk through the driven rain
Wander through your mind
Until you find a different way
Life it’s a circus it’s a church or it’s a pain
But nothing’s lost and nothing’s gained
And nothing stays unchanged
No nothing stays unchanged
Nothing

Already Changed

After brewing coffee doesn’t everything feel grand?
How I just keep loving mornings not obsessing over plans
Quick response sharp thinking
That’s until vividness wanes 
We’re xylophonic yawning zombies
As bed calls drained exhausted frames
Go help inspire joy knowing life makes no official promise
Quiet rest slowly tames unconscious voices
Woah
Xenophilic youthful zephyrs
Airy breezy calming
Aloft and blowing confidently
Distant echoes follow gladly
After brewing coffee doesn’t everything feel grand?
After brewing coffee doesn’t everything feel grand?

After Brewing Coffee

Remember when we got real stoned
Spent the day watching Indiana Jones
On our little mattress on the floor?

Remember when we walked around
Music brought all our people out
We let the sun set on us
A glass lake and summer clouds

Remember when I had you over
Trying not to let the landlord know
Her corner house, my little room on the second floor

Remember when this all was abstract
A different time I sometimes laugh at
Questions like do you think you’d ever want to, and
Don’t you think it’d be nice if we had that?

Don’t you think it’d be nice if we had that
There are things in my past that I’d have back
If I hold them too tight then I get trapped

Remember when I had the time
Hours on end and a wandering mind
Remember how I didn’t think I had the time

Remember what it took to get this far
A thousand chapters and a dozen scars
So much of it slips away
It’s just as well I should enjoy the brand new day

Remember some old September swimming naked in a lake
It felt mild at the time now it wouldn’t seem so strange
Either way don’t let those days go to waste

Remember taking everything you own
Stuff it in a car, go and find a home
Driving town to town with the seat back
D on’t you think it’d be nice if we had that

Things In My Past

Lie down
We can make a plan to find out
Or we can dance til the fire burns out
And cancel our plans to find out

Pine boughs
Piled up and burned down
Watch it rise from the frozen ground
And listen to that old sound

For all the mindless words I say
I was there, yeah I was really there when I said it’d be okay
Cause I don’t wait for sun when it rains
And I don’t search for rainbows on a sunny day

Right now
None of us are time bound
Loosen all of your tie-downs
And drift way out till you find out

I found
A warm place to lie down
A small pocket of something sound
And I’m gonna let it ride out

Rainbows On A Sunny Day

Small Explosions

A song for sitting and being grateful for what you got.
