Stone Cold Morning
04:19

Waking up in the stone cold morning
and the power's gone to nothing again
I watch the frost as it's building up
and freezing out my dream's natural end
Every fire's going out on me
My little home is turning crystalline
I swear to god I'd burn the whole thing down
If I'd ever find the spark here again
Waking up on a stone cold morning
with a man who thinks he's more than a friend
I've heard the words that he's whispering
and I know I'm gonna hear them again
He needs assurance more than he needs me
Say what you want, but it's plain to see
I'd temper all my mama's expectations
when she asks about my holiday plans
You told me someday it would turn around
and I know you're gonna tell me again
As if I'm not counting each day down
'til I get to see where this road bends
I don't say "What about me?"
I'm there unconditionally
But is it ever gonna turn around
or does this end up just another dead end street?
Waking up in the stone cold morning
and time is ticking slowly again
I have some thoughts about a better day
but I can't begin to figure out when
Take the light at the end of the street
Turn left and have some faith in me
And any day with a stone cold morning
won't leave me feeling nothing again

Someone's Coming Around
03:36
|

Hopes tumbling down
into the woods where few would think to look, but
someone's coming around
Who's coming around?
Who's coming around?
Heard it just the other day
A very little thing that I'd always hoped you might say
But there wasn't a sound
Who's coming around?
Who's coming around?
Turning to a good book sometimes
Scrolling through a timeline all night
Waiting for the words to come right
Talking just to put off closure
Every time it's getting closer
Trying just to keep composure
And now I'm closing the door.
And now I'm closing the door.
What ever was found?
What became of the day you said was not far away?
Think I felt it break down
Who's coming around?
Who's coming around?
Heard it just the other day
The overtures to make me look another way
But I'm not gonna drown
Who's coming around?
Who's coming around?
Funny thing happened on the way here last night
Found myself feeling just a little alright
Stayed that way until daylight
Passion gets a little too fleeting
But if we arrange a meeting
I don't know where it's leading
Who's coming around?
Who's coming around?
Who's coming around?
And now I'm closing the door.

Partial Eclipse

Lost in a partial eclipse
and the promise falling from your two lips
It's the hour when the minutes sneak past
and you tell yourself that this is the last
I'm rather indifferent
as the time ticks by when you drop the inference
There were sights that I could've seen
Someone that I could've been
And I could make it all known
In moments when you seem to be so alone
I could tell you the dreams from last night
The thoughts chased off by the morning light
Reserved for two, but there's just one
And much ado, but all for none
It's time to call it again
But then again...
Just ask me politely
Tilt the axis and trip the light nightly
It's the hour when your desire shows
for a moment when everything goes
And I could make it all known
In moments when you seem to be so alone
I could tell you the dreams from last night
The thoughts chased off by the morning light
Reserved for two, but there's just one
And much ado, but all for none
It's time to call it again
But then again...

Time for nothing
always seemed to add up for me every time
'Til those clouds parted
and sunshine started moving all the seconds by
I've forgotten every broken promise he made me
Every empty gesture he gave me
Since you're calling me baby
Since you're calling me baby...
My phone's ringing
and suddenly I'm thinking it might be alright
Cos my heart's singing
and every next tomorrow's gonna start tonight
Fevers rising
and I look in your eyes and I just know it's true
This horizon
is just enough to know that I'm in love with you
I've forgotten every broken promise he made me
Every empty gesture he gave me
Since you're calling me baby
Since you're calling me baby...
I know that I could be the one to fall
I'm hanging on that incoming call
You can ask, but I think that I've said it all when
I've forgotten every broken promise he made me
Every empty gesture he gave me
Since you're calling me baby
Since you're calling me baby...
