LYRICS

Hit rock bottom on this mountaintop
Hundred miles run standing still
Empty overflow, catch me as I go
Only leaving for the coming back to you

And I know, I know
Any sense it comes and goes
And I know, I know 
Less than I thought I knew
Guess I'm thrown, I'm just thrown
Someone tumble dry me low
Someone show me what you're like 
When you are perfectly alone

Got the kitchen floor, a single thought worth holding
High on blue light glass and melatonin
Crumpled ecstasy, lose the thread of me
And punch out my dreams in the morning

CHORUS

And I'm hard at rest
Oh I'm hard at rest
So fucking hard at rest
Oh God I'm hard at rest 

Cleared some space inside a crowded mind
Opened up my fist and caught the sound of time
Feel your hand on my face, you're reaching from a place
I haven't been to yet but somehow know is mine.

CHORUS

The Wash

LYRICS

You spin me ‘round 
I wear a dress that’s not my own
Easy darkness washing by
I love you most out on the road 
Get myself swallowed up 
In other people’s homes 
Keep what I can carry close 

Softer
Driving deeper
Turning under
Now and then
Closer 
Turning over
Open up my eyes
Tell me when

I’m singing Claire de Lune
I’m trying to explain
The simple sweetness knowing
All the lights will change
Feel my own edges and the 
Reaching to be claimed
You seem different and the same

CHORUS

I break my own heart every time 
And time again 
I’ll prophesize for anything that gets me 
Back inside my skin 
I break my own heart every time
And time again
Find me back inside my skin 
 
I’ve never known me 
Well enough to tell you why 
In my dreams they’re chasing 
‘Til I run until I fly
Turned seventeen somewhere between  
The earth and sky 
It’s the place between the places 
Paradise  

CHORUS

Tell Me When

LYRICS

It’s a joke I just don’t get it
Busy picking my own pockets
Busy getting dressed for nothing 
Busy worrying ‘bout something
Always thought I’d grown up smarter
Fall in love and fall out harder 
I’ll be laughing when I’m grown up 
Now I’m living in the setup 

It’s the chorus
I don’t know it yet
Just keeping playing
‘Til we reach the end 
It’s the chorus
Wrap me up in this refrain 
It’s the question, it’s the answer
It’s the game

Guess I’ll clean the roof on acid
Write a series and then trash it
Hideout as a steakhouse waitress
Vacillating, faith and faithless 
Just two channels, fear and boring 
Pledge allegiance to ignoring 
Grab some sanity in flashes
Take turns driving till it crashes

CHORUS

Missed my flight and met a man 
Paint and heartache on his hands
High above a weary nation
Crying with the constellations 
Walk until I have my feet 
Room of roses, fall asleep
Ruby slippers waiting when
It’s time to fall in love again 

Is it time to fall in love? 
Is it time to fall in love? 
Oh I wanna fall
I wanna fall
I wanna fall in love… 
I just don’t know it yet

Just keep playing
Till we reach the end
It’s the chorus
Falling right through this refrain
I’m the question, you’re the answer
You’re the question, I’m the answer
It’s the question, it’s the answer
It’s the game

The Game

LYRICS

Hot around the eyes and
Anxious tongue
Crunching into corners
Come up numb 

Ohh ooh baby
Slow your roll 
Ohh ooh baby
Slow your roll 

Like a printer 
Out of paper
Glove compartment 
Gum
Lost its flavor 
Ohh ohh 
Baby where you going 
With that dashboard 
Flashing amber? 
She said, “The future. 
Ohh ooh, ohh oh 
I’ll send a picture.” 

Stories ‘bout the left lane
On the run
Eyes on both my shadows
Come undone

Ohh ooh baby
Slow your roll
Ohh ooh baby 
Slow your roll 

I believe in 
Solar power 
I believe in 
Sleep and showers
Ohhh ohhh
Ohh ooh 
Comfy clothes 

Like a printer
Out of paper
Glove compartment 
Gum
Lost its flavor
Baby where you going 
With that dashboard 
Flashing amber? 
She said, “The future. 
Ohh ooh, ohh oh 
I’ll send a picture.” 
Ohh ooh, ohh oh 
I’ll send a picture.”

Slow Your Roll

LYRICS

Alright it’s safe to say I knew 
We’d weave a dream that night 
Of silver swords, the sweetest chords 
The Northern Lights 
I told us both that I was made 
For beds of ice
Offered up my mind
Let’s go for a ride

CHORUS
You play the stranger
I’ll play the one you can adore 
I’ll play the spinning thread
And you’re the one that I’ve been searching for

I’ll play the siren
You play the one who saves the day
You play the man on bended knee
I’ll play the one who got away

Poured a hundred years and drank
A legacy
Saw the smallness of my hands on the 
Mahogany
Every inch of earth became a ballroom 
At our feet
Dancing in the crashing waves this 
Silent certainty 

CHORUS

You are the stranger
And I'm the one who you adore
I am the spinning thread
And you're the one who I've been searching for

I am the siren
You are the one who saves the day
You are the man on bended knee
And I'm the one who got away

The Ride

LYRICS

Close my eyes, settle in 
Got a little breathless on my way 
To find some steadying

Heart of gold, evergreen
But I’ll be a flash of lightning 
Long as I can stand the heat

CHORUS
He said, 
“You like the ups and downs.” 
Get a little lost, 
Get a little found. 
Wake up way too high up off 
The ground.
I’m coming down. 
I’m coming down.
I’m coming down. 

Can I be a dedication
If I still get caught by my own mind 
Still crave admiration? 

Body shock, running through
God I love the way a candle 
Burns inside an empty room 

CHORUS

Twenty-eight, round the corner
Still not sure how I feel ‘bout
This thing called getting older 

Threw away, all the maps 
But I told me through the telephone 
There’s no turning back 

CHORUS

Coming Down

LYRICS

Fell in love 
Last year in Harlem
For a little while 

Nice to meet you 
For the first time in a 
Couple thousand miles 

I like your
Temporary
Tattoo style  

Do you want to fall in love
For a little while? 

Rainy rooftop 
Wearing no socks 
Laughed a year back on my life

Arms around me 
Feel you breathing 
Doing nothing but the sky 

I’d forgotten 
What it’s like 
To be so bright 

Do you wanna fall in love
Just for tonight? 

Lying sideways 
In the backseat 
With your hands over my knees

Will you tell me  
Something true 
Or maybe just a memory? 

Glitter falling
Morning calling 
I’m still talking us to sleep 

This one is just for you and me 

Do you wanna fall in love,
For a little while?

Little While

Sweet Nothing (cover)

Lyrics

V1
I think I had it right
When I was sixteen
Lie down with the sky
Let night hold my dreams
Wait for the blue
I want to be happened to 

I know how to run
And I know how to drive
How to heal you and haunt you
And keep us alive
But baby, I’m no
Mastermind 

I just want you to

CHORUS 
Happen to me 
Baby would you
Happen to me? 
Baby could you 
Happen
Happen to me

V2
I’ll write my letters
And learn how to breath
And I’ll dance in dark
On Christmas Eve 
With all the rhyme and
None of the reason, believing 

I’m burning all my  
Predictions and plans
I don’t wanna see you
On a screen in my hand 
I’m walking steady for a 
Tumble-down landing 
When you 

CHORUS
Happen to me 
Baby when you
Happen to me
I think you could 
Happen
Happen to me 

V3
I think I had it right
When I was sixteen
Get real close to the sky
Like the night held my dreams
And wait for the blue
I wanna be happened to 

Oh baby would you 

CHORUS 
Happen to me 
I would let you 
Happen to me
Baby you can 
Happen
Happen to me

Happen To Me

LYRICS

V1
Gotta keep it moving 
Gotta keep ‘em guessing 
Take it way out to the suburbs 
Like witness protection 
Walls so white and new,
Not on the maps yet 

And I curl up by the windows
A good place to cry
Like I can wash away the distance 
With the salt in my eyes, oh 
Falling out of love 
Is so romantic 
And it’s steamy and it’s raining 
Just like I planned it 

CHORUS
Ohh you know 
I like things that disappear
Going quiet, going clear 
Turn out the lights 

Ohh that hope
And those Hollywood hotels 
Babe, I hope you’re sleeping well
Tonight 
Sleeping well 
Tonight 

V2
Miracle walking 
Don’t you know who you are? 
They see lions and tigers
And shooting stars. 
But she just wants to know
Are you coming to the party? 

On the pill, on the mend
On the run on the track
Did I do it alright, 
And can I go back?
There’s a clearing up north where
I can hear something starting
Where the sky is a single page
And I can feel my heartbeat 

CHORUS 

BRIDGE
Oh I’ll fall 
Underneath this spell
Every time 
Like every woman 
Come before me
But tonight
It’s all mine 
It’s all mine 

CHORUS

Things that disappear
