HOW NOW

Look at you, look at you
Look at you, look at you 

Ancient-treetop from the neck-up and newborn-calf in the knees
Will the goodness we have witnessed stay good for centuries? 

This is so new, how now!
Look at you, look at you 

Honey still hot from the tired bees 
Sweet sap weeping from our favorite tree 
Tell me will the goodness we have witnessed
stay good like this for centuries ? 

You and me, let's get together!
Watch what you call for — all birds have a call 
Look at you, look at you
Look at you, look at you

How Now

FEEL LIKE A MAN 

I feel like a man
haven't cried for weeks now
I feel like a man 
I feel like a man

I make money, I’m in demand
You talk feelings from the edge of the bed
Saying I don't understand 
But you know, I’ve got solutions — I’d kill for you

I feel like a man

Saw the stars tonight dying one by one
Living by a light that's already done
Never tried so hard 
Oh I'm hunting what I can't see

I feel like a man

We who fly over seas to try to make it happen
We who must leave everything that's everlasting 
Never had so much to lose
Chasing hunting cursing killing what I can't see
What can't I see?

PANTHER

I watch him as he licks his lips
Slender and fit 
Keeps out the bitter cold
Golden dawn 
Risen once more
When he invites me
And I wonder, can I keep up with the panther?

I better run, I better run
I better know how to hide 
I better know how to fight
Better keep up with the panther tonight

More beasts are lining up to race
Out of their caves
Got to think fast to play their game
My body’s sore
I’m wanting more
When he invites me
To see what he sees
To move fast and free
Explore the kingdom with me
Can I keep up as he leads?
And I wonder, can I keep up with the panther?

I better run, I better run
I better know how to hide 
I better know how to fight
Better keep up with the panther tonight

No wind or rain to cool my sweat
It’s sliding on down my neck
I’ll charge on forth, I’ll run like heck
    
I better run, I better run
I better know how to hide 
I better know how to fight
Better keep up with the panther tonight

Best To You (feat. Alex Schaaf) - Blood Orange cover

CYCLONE
I saw it coming from a hundred miles away
I saw the sky turn from sapphire to grey
Every bird around had flown right out of sight
It was broad day but it looked like midnight

The branches dance a supernatural dressage
Everyone anticipating your barrage
They told me to board up the doors and all the glass
Told me to run for cover, wait for it to pass

You're a cyclone - once you get near me I won't know my home
You're a cyclone - once you get near me I will never never know my home again
I won't know my home

Now I lay out before you like a plain
The sky is darkening, it starts to rain
But lighting shows me something here
What is this? what's growing near?

Get near me now, get near me

You’re a cyclone - once you get near me I will never know my home no more
Kick! down! the glass and the doors! ‘cause I want you to come in

Get near me now, get near me

RETURNING CURRENT

Like a monk or a mystic
quiet on the outside
northern lights colluding on the inside
The air around me humid as Hawaii
with my evaporated desire

I am recurring
I am tidal
returning current

Looking out at the surf, at the cursing waves
My good friend told me
My grandmother showed me
that every seventh wave is the biggest one
and seven years to the day
with those leaden dream legs
I’m trying to run, run, run away

I am recurring
I am tidal
returning current

When I feel this way I wanna run, run, run away
When I catch this wave I gotta ride it all the way

I am recurring
I am tidal
I am recurring
I am tidal
I am recurring
I am tidal

Returning current
