Midmorning 02:01
We woke up in the midmorning Called the day a gift and eased into its stream of light Clear-headed and warm, we made our way down Through curves and lines etched in skylines of the cityscape But with tar covering our eyes we couldn’t make it home Stayed out ‘til the early light Found a sterile mood and blamed it on an oversight Got out in the nick of time Only to find ourselves right back where we started from But with tar covering our eyes we couldn’t make it home

My whole life, waffling between dreams Up all night, waiting for relief But it never comes when you’re looking for it So move along and wait Your soft needs, secrets just between friends But “Big Mouth” always strikes again And it always comes when you’re not ready for it So move along and wait for the first hit, wait for it I don’t want to find out that there’s a secret behind the door That leads a path to everything worth having I’ve got no time for cheap thrills, it always takes one more Everything worth having can’t be forced That quick glance bursting into your heart A sweet gaze tears your world apart It never works if you smother the source So take it slow and stay the course You could have had it but you didn’t want to wait You could have had it, but it’s too late

Never Learn 02:59
What if every choice you ever made was, in the end, just a compromise? Where you always make the same mistakes every time Where you never quite reach the end, fall apart somewhere in between A good idea and a starting place, never doing what you mean Did you miss your chance? You’ll never know Did you push too hard or pull too slow? You came up hard around the curve Still I know you won’t ever learn What if every breath you ever took was just one closer to the finish line? Would you hold your breath or take it deep and cut the line? And take your place at the sudden edge, no looking back as you pass them by But I saw you pause and hesitate, only to fall behind Doomed to repeat the same mistakes that you repeat

Time has a way of ending anger But I don’t ever want to feel like My memories aren’t what they once were Joking has a way of showing the truth But words can lie Like how what you said wasn’t what you meant But how every word showed your intent Silence has a way of killing meek hearts I try to be stoic but everyone around Just laughs out loud Loudness has a way of covering meek hearts By tarps of disgust You know that what I’m saying holds the key But it’s not quite what I mean Don’t be afraid tonight Because I’ve never won a fair fight If you just frown and turn away Then I’ll fold in no time

Prove It 03:14
We’re all just waiting to be found out That these curated dreams aren’t what we’re all about Just sheep wearing a finer sheep’s clothes, in fear of being alone You keep moving straight To prove that your path was right But who are you trying to prove it to if not to yourself? All the self-doubt makes you nervous That you’re headed to an end so disastrous Falling into the arms of fear, self-imposed You keep moving straight You keep moving straight
