We’re moving out to the west coast, we used to say
however long it takes, we’ll hold the line
We’ll hold the line
But if it bottoms out we’ll throw the whole thing off
Pitch a castle somewhere no one can be bothering us
We’ve waited so long
We’ve waited so we’ll go wherever you’ll feel okay
And I know a place in the sun
I know a place in the palms of our hands
If you wanna bear the waves oh
If you wanna bear the waves

Or take another route
Throw the whole thing off
Raise a chance from all the past we’ve been blowing off
Friends of old homes for sake of our families
We’ll throw it all to the waves of a notion
If you wanna go away oh 
If you wanna go away

If you wanna go away
If you wanna go away
If you wanna go away (we waited)
If you go another way (we waited)
I won’t hold you back (we waited)
If you go another way (we waited)
I won’t hold you back (we waited)
If you wanna go away (we waited)		
I won’t hold you back (we waited)
If you go another way (we waited)
I won’t hold you back

Lyrics:
I hadn’t seen you in a while
Your shadow turns to me and smiles
That was before but this is now
We leave the space we owe ourselves

Pretend the past didn’t change us
Start to laugh at the Rolling Stones
Just you and I playing strangers
You turn around and you’re on our own

I lost my friend, I don’t know how
Alone again, oh where are you now?
It’s you by my side
It’s you on my mind
(Your shadow screams not to talk alone)
Can we turn back the time?
Can we get peace of mind? 
(You turn around and you’re on your own)

As if the past couldn’t change us
A shadow screams not to talk alone
You pull ahead to be earnest
Turn around and you’re on our own 
As if the past didn’t change us
You used to laugh at The Rolling Stones
Just you and I playing strangers
You turn around and you’re on your own
It’s you by my side
It’s you on my mind
(You turn around and you’re on your own)
Can we turn back the time?
Can we get peace of mind?
(You turn around and you’re on your own)

As if the past didn’t change us
You used to laugh at The Rolling Stones
Just you and I playing strangers
Turn around and you’re on your own

Lyrics:
See all the gulls rushing over
To steal a piece 
Of what’s been thrown 
Picked apart until it’s gone

As I, hopeful once, 
Fear it’s hopeless
Every chance to take them over
Is sinking down into the bone 

But I’m pushing off to try 
To feel, as it all divides
The roaming of your heart 
That beats from afar

I see you in the moon 
I feel you everywhere 
It casts a ghostly light
Down all the roads you’ve been

Out into open waters
Hoping for the chance
To meet you in the blinding sun 
To hold you once again

I see you in the moon 
I feel you everywhere 
Guess I’m only trying 
To reach you best I can

Out into open waters
Hoping for the chance
To meet you in the blinding sun 
To hold you once again

I see you in the moon 
(Through the stars, through the air I breathe)
I feel you everywhere
(Feeling off, feeling time move deep)
It casts a gsshostly light
(Coming back into it, into me)
Down all the roads you’ve been
(Every time, every night it’s real)

Out into open waters
(I don’t, know what) 
Hoping for the chance
(To do, to choose)
To meet you in the blinding sun 
(Feel it, come through)
To hold you once again
(Through me, through you)

In The Moon

In The Moon - Stray Fossa x Jaguar Sun

Got my life in your hands
Don't mess it up friend
Put the wheel to your chest
Suck it up, take a deep breath and begin
Take the long trip home
A little numb and broke
But I've got your love
Just kickin' it back and runnin' with it

Indebted, indebted, indebted
Indebted, indebted to you

Missed the sun go down
As the band plays to the house
Woke up early and found
Broken bottles in the bathroom

Meant to stay with her
But he didn't like that much
So we cozied up on the floor
True friends don't get so possessive

Wouldn't want to be like that
Though I know she's got my back
These things don't always last
Washing the rosy off my glasses

But I couldn't find them there
Left them on the street somewhere
Good thing you got your pair
Now we don't have to die in collision

Indebted, indebted, indebted
Indebted, indebted to you

(Indebted) Got my life in your hands
(Indebted) Don't mess it up friend
(Indebted) Put the wheel to your chest
Suck it up, take a deep breath and begin
(Indebted) Take the long trip home
(Indebted) A little numb and broke
(Indebted) But I got your love
Just kickin' it back and runnin' with it

In Debt

The cherry blossom start
A summer with all the bugs
We stumble out for air
Like we've never seen the world
The tags inside our collars
Cut them out for good
And wash them till they're soft

I can tell
You're gonna leave a mark on me
All as well
We're weaning off cetirizine

The skin we lost is settled
In corners we don't go
And growing like the guilt
Of never calling home

I can tell
You're gonna leave a mark on me
All as well
We're weaning off cetirizine
I can tell
You're in it till you can't be seen
For a while
And then we're trading allergies

Take time 
Don’t want to fight
But the words you said
Somewhat unfair 
And I don’t know how
You and me, my friend
Can start again
Can start again

Or that’s how
It always seemed
When the blood spilled out
One moment, the next
It would all cool down
You and me, my friend
Seemed always better
With than without

Drains fast
Rushing like water
Through your hands
Threatening to rip us off
From the banks
Where nothing grows
And all your faith
Is all that floats

Oh well
Nothing could stop us
From spilling out
All of our guts 
Into something now
You and me, my friend
We’ve had our go
You know?

And that’s alright
And that’s alright
And always was
And always was
And always was
And always was
And always was
And always was
And always was
And always was

And that’s alright
And that’s alright
And always was
And that’s alright
And that’s alright
And always was
And that’s alright

All Cools Down

I saw it clear as I'd hoped
After all these years
You'd say photographs
Leave nothing to talk about
Why stay holding on
If it's all been kept?

Oh, I remember it
So much better now
That I've got nothing to prove
I was there
I was there

You always could
Pull faces right out of the rocks
You'd fill up your phone
With ordinary empty coast
Never needed to show
That you were there

How you'd erase yourself
And I remember it better now
'Cause we had nothing to prove
We were there

I Was There

Tried to get away from there
Late enough the coast was clear
We'll go on living
We'll go on living

Can't escape the latest trend
Or friends who find a second wind
They'll go on living
They'll go on living

Take your time (as if I saw)
What's the rush? (it cross your mind)
Make our exit

Come to me so comfortably
Ex-extravert social fatigue
We'll go on living
Quietly quitting

Take your time (as if I saw)
What's the rush? (it cross your mind)
Like before (we're past the point to)
Make our exit

Still There

Trapped in a way
Perusing it all
I could just scroll
Around the universe alone
It's not like I care
'Til sometimes I do
Notice the leak that's
Slowly filling up the room

Day's last breath is spent
Drenched in your silence

The sun is angled low
Animates the shore
Shadows running out to sea
Into the swell

Took a trip
Deep in the week
Had to get out
Because the walls began to peel
The ginkgo and oak
Showered the street
The mid-morning ghost
You know that I can sometimes be

And I don't mind
Water burns our eyes
Throws us from all sides
A chance to surface right

As sun is angled low
Animates the shore
Shadows running out to sea
Into the swell
All your breath is spent
Falling through the sand
Drenched in the silence

Drenched In Silence

In a thousand years
You wonder how it'd be
To walk the ancient yards
Of all the places left
Abandoned or eclipsed
Would you notice still
The ones we'd once called home?
I want to take you there
Where we can never go
I want to show you how

This heart aches on and on for you
Forever, all the days we'd lose
Wishing that something
Beautiful would stay
Better keep moving on and on
And on and on and on and on
Better keep moving

You start turning back
Wondering how it's fared
Your love, all overgrown
I want to take you there
Where we can never go
I want to show you how
The garden's spilled over
I want to show you how
This heart aches on and on
This heart aches on and on

Morning Air

We were turning into old
Versions of ourselves
If it were only up to me
I’d get used to no one else
We were walking out on ice
Anybody’s guess
Shot the coast in black and white
Know I said I meant to

Change the film
Nothing to show for
How you felt
Sun off your shoulder

Feeling like we’re seventeen
Back where we grew up
So imperfect, in between
Probably my fault
There are days that throw us off
Haven’t read all year
Hard to finish what we start
Been too close to see it clear

And I know what you would say
And I know what you would say

Change the film
Nothing to show for
How you felt
Sun off your shoulder

And I know what you would say
And I know what you would say

Change The Film

"Miss the Darker Nights" 

Some see the whole affair 
A start to the end of time 
And pretend not to care 

I miss the darker nights 
Louder than a city fire 
Incessant, emergent 
Hum of a thousand cries 
Booming with the sound of life 
Take a deep breath, inhale it 

Some read the warning signs 
Blind to the wool on their eyes 

How could we think of love 
As if it's not enough 
Someone investing 
Smothered the stars with light 
Forcing them down to shine 
Etched in pavement 

I miss the darker nights 
Louder than a city fire 
And the incessant, emergent 
Hum of a thousand cries 
Booming with the sound of life 
Take a deep breath, inhale it

Never thought that I could be so cold?
Try me
After all the rest have all gone home
And I’m
Living on a caldera how dare I
Temper myself
Fortunate that I’m not 
Sinking

These days

Thinking of the past that other world
Spying
Whose enamored authors wore their 
Better selves?
Honestly the truth seems
Oh, so very empty,
Mislaid 
These days
These days

Lyrics:
I wanted to get out there anyway,
try to catch a cold in for the day.
To see a film meant more decisions,
and no one watches television.

It’s not that I could help it; to start
I was a kid and cut my own hair in the dark—
belief I found annoying.
The talk of death could get so boring.

Time goes to waste in a year,
and I’m hoping
that we’ll remain friends.
Are you gonna be
okay?

Bet you’re thinking that there must be more to this,
window shopping in a life that you made of glass.
Oh won’t you tell me what you’re feeling,
not another reason.

Look around a land of fibers at the cars,
at the stores all pushing nothing and at once;
hope that you enjoy it—
not that you can own it.

Smile, are you really there,
and you’ll give it
everything that you can?
Timeless and mean in the end,
and you dare it,
all we left unsaid.

Lyrics:
Split me right from the start
One half deserving more than the other
Lean into stranger thoughts
Stronger than I could dare ignore
Once more once more once more

Something I could be the first to know
If you’d give it one more chance
I’d give all that I was sure you’d hoped
But I know it’s not the answer

Now you’re dulling it down
With every vain attempt to relate
As every match holds a fire
In all the histories burnt out of place

Something I could be the first to know
If you’d give it one more chance
I’d give all that I was sure you’d hoped
But I know it’s not the answer
No way in love for what was
No way in love for what was
No way in love for what was

Something I could be the first to know
If you’d give it one more chance
I’d give all that I was sure you’d hoped
But I know it’s not the answer

Something I could be the first to know
If you’d give it one more chance
I’d give all that I was sure you’d hoped
But I know it’s not the answer

I can’t help it [No way in love for what was]
I want more from it [No way in love for what was]
I can’t help it [No way in love for what was]
I want more from it, from it
[If I dream alone is it real love?]
I can’t help it
[No way in love for what was]
I want more from it
[No way in love for what was]
[If I dream alone is it real love?]
I can’t help it
[No way in love for what was]
I want more from it, from it
[If I dream alone is it real love?]
I can’t help it
[No way in love for what was]
I want more from it
[No way in love for what was]
[If I dream alone is it real love?]
I can’t help it
[No way in love for what was]
I want more from it, from it

For What Was

Folding at the top of your life
Weekends she never your type
How you gonna stop yourself?
Folding at the top of your life
Weak kids were never so kind
Strong ones shut their mouths
And weaken beneath the quiet

Don’t need much for us
Don’t need much for us
Don’t need much for

I don’t care if this is what you’re in it for
I don’t care
I sit around (I don’t care) 
I sit around (If this is what you’re in it for)
I sit around (I don’t care) 
Asking what you’re in it for

Folding at the top of your life
Fall back you’re one of a kind
But trip to catch twenty-two
Everyone’s talking about something 
(Something)
I don’t think I fully can understand 
(Understand)
Or I don’t have the patience to indulge it
Shaking all the upper hands

Don’t need much for us
Don’t need much for us
Don’t need much for

I sit around (I don’t care) 
I sit around (If this is what you’re in it for)
I sit around (I don’t care)
Asking what you’re in it for
I sit around
I sit around

I sit around

A light is fading out
I rush to feel it
Beckoning the sound 
Of an open age
Never had I thought 
I’d have to leave it
Never had I guessed 
I would remain

I hold my breath
Gold rush to wait for it
Slow down, savor 
What chills and burns

You give it all you can 
And ask for nothing
Break inside to mend 
What bleeds your days
You wait for all that was 
As close as it was far

I hold my breath
Gold rush to wait for it
Slow down, savor
What chills and burns

This time seems
There's no getting out 
Of the headspace that 
You made yourself

You don't have it bad, 
But you're mad, and 
You mean to feel significant

Staring down the harm, 
You take it to the sun
To preach at all the pawns;
You don't fool me

Put down the guns
Come take a walk
Why don't you try
To get along?
It's not that hard
It never was 
To be a part
To be someone

The kid guards its toy
Like the thing is the last remaining
Sign of home

The freedom to say 
What you want like you can 
When you're among your own

It must be tiresome
To play a victim,
It must feel so absurd;
You don't fool me 
   
Put down the guns
Come take a walk
Why don't you try
To get along?
It's not that hard
It never was 
To be a part
To be someone

Put down the guns
Come take a walk
Why don't you try
To get along?
It's not that hard
It never was 
To be a part
To be someone

I don't belong here
Pass another season
Move along dear
It's the best kind of moment
The kind that goes 
It's the best kind of moment
When we never know, when

It cuts in
Like a razor blade,
Smooth sail
Between sky and lake
It's the best kind of moment
The kind we love
It's the best kind of moment
Passing over us

The summer
Melts like ice on black
Pavement,
Scrapes the knees
And takes me back
It's the best kind of moment
The kind that goes
It's the best kind of moment
And now it's gone, oh no

I've noticed
You're not the same
You've changed
Time to save some face
It's the best kind of moment
The kind we love
It's the best kind of moment
And now it's gone

My sun'll rise, and I know
It's not much longer now
Somewhere begins a future
A stranger to ourselves
What's left of me and you 
Is a geyser rushing out at night
No chance to see it through,
To feel it boil out from under

I can't keep waking up   
(Somewhere, somehow 
I'm looking at you always)
To dreams of orange days 
(Somewhere, somehow 
I'm ready to lose our way)
That held us in her arms 
(Somewhere, somehow 
I'm pushing away the truth)
And kept us for a while

Our time has come
To uncover every answer kept
Beneath the white burn of August
That carries us to bed
What chance to see it through
If the moment falls out from under
And holds a heavy heart
In the open odds of ever landing

I can't keep waking up   
I can't keep waking up   

I can't keep waking up   
(Somewhere, somehow 
I'm looking at you always)
To dreams of orange days 
(Somewhere, somehow 
I'm ready to lose our way)
That held us in her arms 
(Somewhere, somehow 
I'm pushing away the truth)
And kept us for a while

With the weight that 
(You don’t know)
If I'm underreacting
Find a place to 
(Be alone)
And the weight that 
(You don’t know)
Is it all as it seems?

Now, surfacing 
For another
It's a distant emporium 
In full color, is it real?

Have to stay here 
(Trapped at home)
With the weight that 
(You don’t know)
If you're underreacting
Find a place to 
(Be alone)
And the weight that 
(You don’t know)
Is it all as it seems?

Nothing new is ever strange
To you

You kept your heart
So close to mine
Underneath
The diving line
