Sad Disco

You don’t need anyone
You tell yourself
This time alone has been
Good for your health
I don’t want to feel this way again
Dancin on your own
Movin to that sad disco
Freedom in the moves
Tell yourself to let it go
You can’t see anyone
There’s no one else
She’s every woman and it’s
Bad for your health
I don’t want to feel this way again
I don’t want to feel that way again
Dancin on your own
Movin to that sad disco
Freedom in the moves
Tell yourself to let it go
I just want to feel that way again

A Thousand Times
04:11

I found out some time ago
Sometimes I don’t have much to say
Still an engine turns inside
There is something that I long to tell you
But it’s in some tired voice
When my fingers set to type
Played the same old song a hundred times
You wrote it ten times or more
Try to escape the cliche
Tried to tell the truth
But in some new and interesting way
But my voice still sounds the same
And are you bored?
What are you looking for?
Don’t turn away
I love you more
Than any lyric
More than any chord could convey
So I just sing
A song you’ve heard a thousand times before
A song I played a thousand times or more
I can’t bear to hold this anymore
A song you’ve heard a thousand times before

Earth
03:27

Maybe we could stay at home
I can tell you’re getting tired
Maybe we could catch a lift
If you felt so inspired
Make yourself comfortable
Don’t push the envelope
We’ve been around
Tired of the orbit though
Catch another flight
Get some time alone
Here in some other place
Hear your voice on the phone
Make yourself comfortable
Don’t push the envelope
We’ve been around
Tired of the orbit though
I’ve been looking at the night
Reaching for the universe
Everyone I know is here
It’s time to come back down to earth
Make yourself comfortable
I push the envelope
I’ve been around
I’m tired of the orbit though

Pear
05:31

Fingertips, skin of a pear
Bite inside, I find you there
We’re under a chlorine moon
Swimming in cicada tune
Burdenless, our bodies
Crushed by the humidity
Rusty star burns into blue
Bare feet and bathing suits
Blades of grass, beads of sweat
Nostalgia and regret
Twist and bend, heart of pine
Submerged in the fading light
Moving our bodies like
We’re dancing all night
Sing me that old line
“Hanging over July”
I see the river rise
I feel the moonshine
Look in those blue eyes
Terrible is it to me
That you are all i can see
Things i wish i did before
All consumed down to the core

Feel
03:17

You don’t have to smile just cause you’re having a good time
I don’t know why you wouldn’t but it’s none of my
Business
Feelings are infinite
You can feel what you need to feel just
Keep it real and we’ll be alright (repeat)
We’ll be alright, we’ll be alright
You don’t have to talk, we can sit in the silence
Say what you mean, we can practice resilience
Words fail
Even the earth will melt
You can feel what you need to feel just
Keep it real and we’ll be alright (repeat)
We’ll be alright, we’ll be alright
You can feel what you need to feel just
Keep it real and we’ll be alright (repeat)
We’ll be alright, we’ll be alright

Tell Me
04:30

Tell me that I love you
Tell me that i know how to
Tell me you forgive me
Tell me that I can too
Tell me that you feel it
Tell me that you see what i do
Tell me that you want me
I’m telling you i want you
And I still don’t know the way
To love you like you need
Is what I feel for you
Appetite and greed?
So I tell you I love you
Everyday I’ll learn how to
Putting down my roots and
I know that I can improve
Everything I feel but
Moreso what I know is true
True love is a slow burn
Baby and it’s burning blue
