When the sun don't shine
If you look inside your mind then you
you will see, you will see
what you've been looking for.

And if you take your time
once you get inside, then you
you will see, you will see
what you've been looking for.

And I've been here all day
But I’ve been 7,000 miles away away miles away
Looking for looking for
What was already in my head.

And I will stare you down, lower 
down the tent sides, past the sunrise
Sight and sound to dust
And my lust as that bus just pulled away from us and
I was left
With the path that I'm on now.

I am doing all that I can
Oh oh, oh oh
And when luck comes I’ll grab her hand
Oh oh, oh oh

Good advice that just hasn't happened yet

I waited for this day
But I didn't see it coming
At least not this way.
And now that it's here
I don't know what to say
Or how to feel.

Oh oh oh
I'm running I'm running away
Oh oh oh
I'm running I'm running away

But you're the one that's moving
And I'm the one that's standing still
Because my mind was neither here nor there or anywhere in between.
And I'm so glad you're finally doing
All the things that I hoped you would.
I just don't know why
You couldn't do them with me.
It wasn't meant to be

All the time we shared
I don't regret a single thing
It's not that I don't care
It's just time to part our ways

Hold on child I'm coming out to play
You materialized
Like an elven rabbit figment of my
Queen of hearts
Stuck in the lost hour
You know all my alls
The meaningfool, meaningfool 
Nonsense.

I waited for this day
But I didn't see it coming
At least not this way.
And now that it's here
I don't know what to say
Or how to feel.

Oh oh oh
I'm running I'm running away
Oh oh oh
I'm running I'm running your way

Because you are meant to be here
Even though I don't believe in fate
It's just the other side of the world is such a perfect place to meet.
And I'm so glad we're finally doing
All the things that I hoped we would.
Word finds and tree climbs and hot chocolate tea times 
You are the magic
It was meant to be.

All the time we've shared
I don't regret a single thing
I will always care
In each and every single way.

It should probably be now

see me
clearly
straight through severed skin 
detach from bone and limb

sweat and mold
and rain and blood
stitches through
my ankle's flood
of ladders leading
way too high
to ceiling fans and
knives on thighs

and you were there
toe to toe
standing with a
haunted glow
your breath was hanging
in the air
whispering just
one last prayer

turn off the light
turn off your brain
turn to the sine
waves in your veins 
reach under skin
your fingers splayed
lick the atoms through
your lungs and toes and 
and back again

It's in your

LYRICS
I took a leap
Four years ago
I packed my bags
And said hello
To sun and stream
And quiet city streets
I got by
Like we all do
One moment gone
One day is through
Trying my best to slow down time

And I don’t think you can see
All the things behind the scenes
But I know it's just my fault
I've been trying to make it seem
Like I've always got everything
But I've just got myself

I don’t want to go or stay here
I don’t want to stay here or go
I don’t want to go or stay here
I don’t want to stay here alone

Stop Motion

Mustard Seeds (feat. vocals by See-Why)

And I will stay here
planting seeds til
the leaves just push me out of bed
And I will stay here
breathing just still
the stardust swirling round my head

And all of these pretty things
hold meaning til we die
The mustard seeds your calling brings
so reach up for the sky

Ooooh we have to fight our way down
for the freedoms we've found
history's repeating itself again
repeating itself again

Mustard Seeds (feat. See-Why)

You came and went
Before I could rest
Solace in each other's eyes
Stops the heart lies

You stay safe
You stay safe

When the night fell
I sat in the middle of my floor
Staring at those demons past
Knowing they'll forever last

You stay away
You stay away

Tell me all the things you said you'd say
and I will stay the night
Look me in the eyes and see
your dreams they were just right
it's all right

I took one breath
Fingers shaking in the air
And you became you became just one
Same eyes, heart, blood

You stay the same
You stay the same

Tell me all the things you said you'd say
and I will stay the night
Look me in the eyes and see
your dreams they were just right
it's all right

Stay

Don't you dare say you're sorry for
Don't you dare say you're sorry for
Taking your time
In my life

And I would have stayed
just to sit cross legged one more time
and see how our knees touch
and our breath and palm and toes just so 
And I would have stayed
just to see you smile one last time
but I hear the silence scream and I wont wait
I wont wait for you

I wont wait
