i’ve never drank wine

Lyrics 

All my lovers come back to haunt me in my dreams
they know the promises that I could never keep
I was a perfect storm that summer I'd never sleep; scared that I'd see you in my place

I know the feelings are dense and overwrought
I know the words aren't real but still, my jaw is taught 
and when I sleep my eyes are open 
cause I can't confront the ghost of you

tonight,tonight,tonight
a cowboy drives the pale blue moon 
maybe tonight i’ll see him too
laughing in the corner of the room
he’ll tip his hat and say “I’ll see you soon”
then he’ll sing 

i see shooting stars creating myths of life,
they say that this is real don’t write about your strife 

i couldn’t recognize you last time that we met
I couldn’t see you behind your silhouette 

in my dreams, you should’ve seen your smile
it was real like i remembered 
you said "it's gonna be a hard september"

tonight,tonight,tonight
a cowboy drives the pale blue moon 
maybe tonight i’ll see him too
laughing in the corner of the room
he’ll tip his hat and say “I’ll see you soon”
then he’ll sing 

Why should I regret all that I have left to live
waiting for you to appear
waiting for signs that aren't clear 
Is this the only song I know how to sing?
while I wait by your door to hear it ring

tonight,tonight,tonight
a cowboy drives the pale blue moon 
maybe tonight i’ll see you too
laughing in the corner of the room
you’ll shake your head and say “I’ll see you soon”
then you'll sing

all my lovers (demo)

I want your keys inside my door
I want you back in my life just like before
I want December to be sparse and ravenous
Mm mmm mm

I want your boots
Ruined from the snow
Right by my doormat
I'll ask if it's cold

So you don’t forget how I can be
Predetermined fight I throw words with casualty
Out the door

Cause by the time you hit the highway
I'll be gone
But I needed your light
When the snow pilled on

Route 80, scream you hate me
But you still save a seat
In the cold, cause you still feel the heat

You want your life
Stitched back together
Doesn’t matter the cost
Even in this weather

Cause the road lines start to blur
You forget what you came out here for
til you remember my coat by the door

Cause by the time you hit the highway
I'll be gone
But I needed your light
When the snow pilled on

Route 80, scream you hate me
But you still save a seat
In the cold, cause you still feel the heat

I've got this haunting feeling your gone
Are you here?
Have you been here all along?

I've got this terrible feeling that I'm gone
Are you here?
Have I been here all along

Do you pray every night
That I get home alright?

Cause by the time you hit the highway it was dawn
And you turn off those headlights cause the shoe prints are gone

Route 80, tell me baby
Do you still save a seat
In the cold cause, you still feel the heat
In the cold, do you still wait for me

hit the highway (demo)

Lyrics 

I'm home to no one 
Home to nowhere
And by the time that I get there
It’ll be too late 

I shrug you off 
At the party
Say i'm better
When I don’t need anybody 

I'm starting to think 
It can’t be true 
Doesn’t mean 
The answer was you

It's a winter song 
I've been holding on for far too long 
I know that the angels can hear me 
I've got a few sins 
To confess tonight 
Right outside your door

And i've been chasing a never-ending flame 
There’s so many things I regret 
Not even 20 yet 

Shedding off this old skin 
Feeling happy but its tiring 
I wanna notice and I wanna be known 

It's a winter song 
I'm finally admitting when I've been wrong 
And this can be nice
Nothings forever 
Trapped under ice 

Ooo perspire on the glass
Make faces in the car windows
Dream again like kids 
Don’t say the world is gone
When you’re standing in front of me 
And It meant everything 
I need to say
You mean everything 
I know I know I know 
I wanted to be known
I know I know i know
Loving is letting go

winter song (demo)

Lyrics

An old man said to me
You can't forget the past
Oh all its strange subtleties
That grow in the grass

No you can’t forget the future how it stays how it lingers
How it sits in the weather of your fingers

And do I carry
Bodies
To every lifeless conversation

Or do I bury
No one to quite read your face
Or the state of this mess or your place

Ohh graveyard stalking
oh you're talking to your TV set
Of listless vampires
That you don’t even know know you yet

Oh you can hide under the covers
Wait until they discover
The thing that you’ve been waiting for
Make you head right out the door
And say
I'm not running today

The devil on your shoulder
Said you might be getting older
But can you really recognize
You’ve never learned to compromise

All the people in the circus shake their heads
Oh are you nervous?
Attention seeking yes it's true
Prepare for your debut

And do I carry
Bodies
To every lifeless conversation

Or do I bury
Click my heels three times
Learn to Fall right between the lines

Ohh graveyard stalking
oh you're talking to your TV set
Of listless vampires
That you don’t even know know you yet

Oh you can hide under the covers
Wait until they discover
The thing that you’ve been waiting for
Make you head right out the door
And say

I'm not running today
let the re-runs play
I'm not running today

Lyrics
It’s not snowing in Kentucky 
think of all the lives I could’ve lived 
by now
don’t think I've ever had the determination you all talk about

There’s little foxes running through the woods 
Lost and hoping for anything good 
They cross highways and sidewalks 
But there’s no way back 
Can’t find their tracks 

The smell of Ginger and vine 
Coasting over the mountainside 
they live in a cabin far away 
We come estranged and strange in our ways 

Cause I've never wanted what I've needed 
I hold my breath like I've got something to say 
You’re never gonna love me in a way that isn’t twisting the knife 
Just right 

telephone wires
customer service 
crowded rooms 
in between the interludes 
lost in thought 
forgot to forget 
rain storm 
hail storm 
prelude 
its destitute 
harrowing the cold 
getting too old 
to feel this way 

in between the interludes
there's a single 
thought of you 

in between the interludes 
didn't mean to intrude
