"West"


Maps stretched out-
Too many miles to count.
Let’s just say we’re inches apart,
Even closer at heart,
And we’ll be just fine.

Another pin pushed in
To remind us where we’ve been.
And every mile adds up
And leaves a mark on us.
And sometimes our compass breaks
And our steady true north fades.
We’ll be just fine.

We’ll be just fine.
We’ll be just fine.
We’ll be just fine,
I know that we will.
I just know we will.

Time moves slow
When half of your heart has yet to come home.
Every minute’s adding up
And leaving a mark on us.
I can’t get you out of my mind.
I can’t get you out of my mind.
I can’t get you out of my mind.
I solemnly swear,
I swear that I’ll never try.

We’ll be just fine.
We’ll be just fine.
We’ll be just fine,
I know that we will.

We’ll be just fine.
We’ll be just fine.
It’s a matter of time
'Til our compass stands still,
'Til our compass stands still.

"Wilderness"

"Wilderness"


Dear wilderness, be at your best.
Her armor is thin as the fabric of her dress.
I know the rules: the weaker trees bend.
But make her immune
When your temper storms in.

When she gains her balance,
Be as still as you can be.
When she's climbing branches,
Be the feathers underneath.

When she regains her balance,
Be as steady as she needs.
When she trusts you blindly,
Be her worthy lock and key.

Though it goes against
Every grain of your sand,
Like turning wolves
Into lambs,
Be your best for her,
Your best for her.

When she holds her balance,
Be as gentle as she needs.
When she shines her brightest,
Let no dark cloud intervene.

"Wires"

"Wires"


Carefully cut the wire and wait.
Life is a series of narrow escapes.

A chain reaction,
A loose thread that we must pull.

The birth of religion
In the challenge of the unknown.

But all desperation
Leads to a fork in the road-
We live for understanding
Or for control.

So very carefully we'll cut the wire and wait.

With one eye closed,
We'll draw back,
Catch our breath and let go...
Time is the string in between
The arrow and the bow.
If there's one thing we've learned
As our pulse returns-
Timing is everything.

If life is a series of narrow escapes,
We're shifting our weight
In this tightrope ballet.

We're down to the wire.

"Woodwork"

"Woodwork"


I hear your heart
As it beats beneath
The sound of crashing cars
The sirens pour into every street surrounding us
Our world caves in on us
And makes us new
All our love came out of the woodwork
All our strength came out of the woodwork
We only know this light
And darkness crashes against it
We only know this light
Deep in the woodwork

I still hear the song
As it rings beneath
The sound of shattered glass
In the aftermath
The melody carries on
I become undone
It makes us new

All our love came out of the wood work
All our strength came out of the woodwork
We only know this light
And darkness crashes against it
We only know this light
Deep in the woodwork

It’s a cruel cruel trick
How we find ourselves
When we lose everything else
Like a train wreck
The sound of your breathing hits my ears
The world reappears
And it breaks us new

All our love came out of the woodwork
All our strength came out of the woodwork
All our trust came out of the woodwork
We only know this light
Deep in the woodwork

"You Are Enough"

"You Are Enough"


When we woke up
The world was figured out
Beyond the beauty we’ve dreamt about.
This brilliant light is brighter than we’ve known,
Without our darkness to prove it so.
Still, we can’t help but to examine it,
To add our question marks to periods.
At the foot of our bed, we found an envelope…

“You are enough.”
These little words, somehow they’re changing us.
“You are enough.”
So we let our shadows fall away like dust.

When we grew up,
Our shadows grew up too.
But they’re just old ghosts
That we grow attached to.
The tragic flaw is that they hide the truth

That you’re enough.
I promise you’re enough.
I promise you’re enough, I promise you.

“You are enough.”
These little words, somehow they’re changing us.
“You are enough,”
So we let our shadows fall away like dust.
“You are enough.”
These little words, somehow they’re changing us.
Let it go, let it go, “You are enough.”
So we let our shadows fall away like dust.

"You Wouldn't Like Me"

"You Wouldn't Like Me"


There's a war inside of me
Do I cause new heartbreak to write new broken song
Do I push it down or let it run me
Right into the ground

But I feel like
I wouldn't like me
If I met me
I feel like
I wouldn't like me
If I met me

Well I can't stop talking
For fear of listening to unwelcome sound
And you haven't called me in weeks
And honestly it's bringing me down

I, I feel like
I wouldn't like me
If I met me
I feel like
You wouldn't like me
If you met me

Don't you worry, there's still time
Don't you worry, there's still time
There's nothing to live for
When I'm sleeping alone
And I wash the windows outside
In hopes that the glare will bring you around

I, I feel like
I wouldn't like me
If I met me
I feel like
You wouldn't like me
If you met me

Don't you worry, there's still time
Don't you worry, there's still time
Don't you worry, there's still time
Don't you worry, there's still time

Sunshine is days away
And I won't be saved, I know all the words
And I can't say
That I love you forever
