I am someone's sunshine
His only source of light, he says
He claims he can't live without me
He blames me when the skies are grey
I lie awake alone
Am I mistaken
I'll never know
I'll never know
I sometimes feel possessed
I'm careful where I step
A prized possession bound and bonded
But being loved is not the same
As being wanted
Why being needed feels like being in control
I'll never know
I was someone's sunshine
I couldn't make him happy
But I made him smile
For awile
I couldn't make my body lie
Anymore
Don't even know why I tried
I'll never know
I'll never know

No Use

The sun was shining
Right into my eyes
When they told me it was nighttime
And I believed them
Blinded by those pretty lies
Scared of what they said was hiding
In plain sight
No need to worry bout what you
ll never be allowed to know
Now I can't unsee you
And you know
I wouldn't even want to
Go back to stumbling through the dark
The way that I've been doing
Even if I could undo this
I'd still know what the truth is
No use lying to your heart
Don't worry
Your pretty little head they said
Those fairytales are here to keep you safe and warm
I believed them
It was kind of a relief to know
I would never be in control.
Now I can't unsee you
And you know
I wouldn't even want to
Go back to stumbling through the dark
The way that I've been doing
Even if I could undo this
I'd still know what the truth is
No use lying to your heart
Moments are not created equally
Some rush on by
Some unfold so slowly
Empty, lonely
Now I can't unsee you
And you know
I wouldn't even want to
Go back to stumbling through the dark
The way that I've been doing
Even if I could undo this
I'd still know what the truth is
No use lying to your heart

Blackbird on a chainlink fence
Early morning iridescence
Distant traffic dissonant
Against the Blue Ridge silhouette
I am waiting
Waiting for my love to wake
Strip mall in a mining town
they took the top of this whole mountain down
And they're praying for them whole world to stop
In this Wal Mart parking lot
I am waiitng
Waiting for my love to wake
It ain't gonna be easy
But it's gonna be worth it
You already know how much it hurts
Letting go of being perfect
It ain't gonna be easy
But we're gonna make it work
You already know
Brick by brick on sacred ground
Painting over everything
Wild and unbound
but it's waiting
Waiting to break
It ain't gonna be easy
But it's gonna be worth it
You already know how much it hurts
Letting go of being perfect
It ain't gonna be easy
But we're gonna make it work
You already know
Listen to the hum below
Mockingbird she sings the only song she knows
You already know
You already know
It ain't gonna be easy
But it's gonna be worth it
To love the ground whereon you stand
I am waiting
Waiting for my love to wake

Stolen Girl
Get your heart out
You're gonna need it
Absolutely sure
Even though I never was the kind to believe it
So I made a pact in blood
Before the facts were in love
Spoke too soon
But nothing's ever set in stone
Stolen glance
Just long enough to break a spell
Whispered word
So soft
I'll never tell, I'll never tell
Casts doubt everytime
The light turns
Can't see the lines can't see the lines
And this shadow inverts
And it moves the whole earth
Out of orbit
Out of time
Eclipsing all reason
And changing my mind
Changing my mind
Falling star
Could be the death of everything
Unless we already are
So far there's no proof that this isn't all a dream
Barely brushing past each other
Waiting to collide
Theia and Gaia
it's just a matter of time
And it moves the whole earth
Out of orbit
Out of time
Eclipsing all reason
And changing my mind
Changing my mind

The Last Song I'll Sing
03:52

Weathervane
Wind whipped spinning every which way
East to West wind then East again
I don't know what direction I'm heading
But a storm's coming
I don't know where my head is
A storm's coming
I don't know where my heart lies
Forgiveness is tempered by time
And a storm's coming
Another year in a heady decade
Trying to navigate the mess we made
Trying to keep my head above the waves
I wade into the wake
A well worn route
A tattooed map
Just another way to make the universe laugh
The ink's still wet
There's something beneath the skin
Your heart is an anchor tangled in anger
I can't take the weight
I'm waiting for my love to wake
This is the last song I'll sing for that shell I was
This is the last song I'll sing
For the shell I was for you

It All Floats Away

Oh the Mississippi's weary
Of all the secrets she must carry
It's time we drank our own mistakes
Notes folded into bottles
And tossed into the water
Come to shore someday
All the centuries of waiting
The guilt is suffocating
It's time I faced my own mistakes
I wade into the wake
And I'm down on my knees once again
It all floats away
It all floats away
The pain and the ache
It breaks
On the banks of yesterday
It all floats away
And out to sea
Only time will tell
You gotta pay the storyteller
That debt can wait another day
So pass around the bottle and sing along
Till you believe every word that they say
Till it all floats away
It all floats away
The pain and the ache
It breaks
On the banks of yesterday
It all floats away
And out to sea
Leapt like vines in a sickening heat
Can't unwind
Can't even breathe
Pray for time
pray for release
pray for rain
Until it all floats away
It all floats away
The pain and the ache
It breaks
On the banks of yesterday
It all floats away
And out to sea
