Porch Song

ever-present hum from the not-so-distant highway
and it makes me nervous, but I know it's just the people coming and going
the chirping birds bringing their gossip from tree to tree and
what are they saying about me
and did know this was all just a forest
go out and gather all you need today
there will be things that you can't hold that you'll pickup along the way
promise you'll remember what to bring
there's no turning back
is the answer just beyond my grasp, at the end of may, or a sunny day away
or can I see it in the clear blue skies
no more telling lies
if it isn't true, I just didn't know it then
I just didn't know
I just didn't know
don't spend your precious time playing games in your mind
you can't control the wind that blows or the hatred in their hearts
promise you'll remember to sing
there's no turning back
is the answer just beyond my grasp, at the end of may, or a sunny day away

Living Thing

not so fast, you're a living thing
you need water for your insides
substance for your mind
take some time to be docile
mediation for you thoughts
find serenity in all this noise
and I promise you'll grow into the sky you'll grow
you're a living thing
a vessel self-healing
you were a child you relied
now you're older you provide
a living thing
a vessel self-healing
you were a child you relied
now you're older you provide
walk in rhythm talk in time
you make sense of all your lies
sate your business, state your name
testify to your own games
you're a living thing
a vessel self-healing
you we're a child you relied
now you're older you provide
a living thing
a vessel self-healing
you were a child you relied
now you're older you provide

Be the Light

on the other side of the river lies a wealth of abundance with no claim
but there's dark times waiting, and its gripping your bones
you wade in the wake
I could remain in a sheltered place
I'd rather be out here in the open where it's better to see
better to breathe
the sun will go down, the flowers will die
lovers will tell you bitter lies
don't be surprised
dark days won't dim your light forever
dark days will make you shine
be the light
we're closer to the sun it's true
one hell of a difference from January to June,
and the endless clouds- they are behind you
seasons will change and you'll make mistakes
but clouds only bring new life, be the light
love yourself through dark days
love yourself always
busy living in a daydream, but it's not really living at all
and now w're sitting at the bottom of the ocean
right here you can see where we all came from
tell me, what does it mean to you?

Lullabye

oh a little baby born by the seas
born out of love but not too much
and many days it will feel like you're far from home
far from all that you know
but I promise it isn't hopeless (we'll find our way back home)
say goodbye goodbye to your fears
goodbye goodbye
I'll be saying goodnight goodnight from here
goodbye, look for me in the stars if you can
oh and if it gets too hard be ready to hide under the bridge
never you mind what is behind you
and on solemn days it may feel like there's no turning the tide
the winds blow your dreams to the sky
oh but for you the sky is your ceiling
goodbye goodbye to your fears
goodbye goodbye
I'll be saying goodnight goodnight from here
goodbye, look for me in the stars if you can
