LOST FOR A WHILE
Built a little something
With my own two hands
I can’t remember how or when
Don’t ask me where I’m going
Don’t know where that may be
So I think I’ll stay lost for a while
Such a pretty house
Such a pretty garden
You made something for yourself
But do you even care
So why don’t you stay lost for a while
Do you hear the rattle?
The wind is forcing its way in
As we lay our burdens down
Feel murmurs on our skin
Can you hear the whispers?
There’s a child that lives within
He knows his way around
But doesn’t know where to begin
Don’t ask me where I’m going
Don’t know where that may be
So I think I’ll stay lost
I’ll stay lost for a while

ALMA
She was born in September
Oh Alma was her maiden name
Learned to walk early on
Was a hard child to tame
Mother believed that
If she played was to win
Walking wasn’t good enough
Was the start of a running game
Run run run
Run until you’ve won
So Alma went full speed
She loved all the praise
Had the finest beating heart
Could manage so much strain
She ran so very fast
Forgot to look around
And before poor Alma knew it
She was lost, couldn’t slow down
Run run run
Run until you’ve won
Run run
You can never be outdone
She came about a boy
He led a masquerade
He called for her to join
So Alma went full speed
And ran through the parade
Before old Alma knew it
She had lost, could slow down
Run run run
Run until you’ve won
Run run
Run Run Run
You can never be outdone
Run run

SECRETS
Would you deny it if I came to you
Leading a secret life seems so hard to do
You can tell me about it, it’s no secret now
Two sides to every story, but I still wonder how
Do you think about it, think about it now?
Do you think about it? Think about it.
It was 2 am, we spoke on the phone
That time that you had promised you’d drive me home
You left me here waiting while you played your little game
And told yourself some stories, not to bare any shame
Did you think about it, do you still think about it now?
Did you think about it, do you still think about it now?
Do you know your secret’s out
Do you know your secret’s out
Do you know your secret’s
I know it’s been years now and I’m out of time
You may wonder where I’m coming from
But I’m not fine
All these little secrets built it up to this
All these little secrets built it up to this
All these little secrets

BUTTERFLY
A malachite butterfly landed on a little girls’ head
The flapping of the butterfly’s wings caused a tornado in the little girls’ head
The hands of a clock being turned back won’t stop time
Some things can’t be undone no matter how hard you try
The butterfly effect lives deep within her soul
Causing flowers to bloom and glaciers to melt in whole
The hands of a clock being turned back won’t stop time
The caterpillar sings
The caterpillar sings a melody you can’t decide
Spare me a pair of wings
And I’ll sing you a lullaby
Stand up tall and gaze up to the sky
Why don’t you spare me a pair of wings
And I’ll find you a butterfly
Stand up tall and gaze up to the sky
Stand up tall
Stand up tall to the sky

DUST
A drought struck Edinborough
And all the Southern Plains
High winds and dust
Left us praying for some rain
Billowing clouds would darken skies
For days on end
We’d clear the dust with hope to mend
We’d clear the dust
So in this No Man’s Land called home
Where we built and built in vain
Packed our bags and headed north
In hopes for better days
With our bags we walked for all but thirty days
The dust would often blow ‘till it was middle day
We’d clear the dust
We were its prey
Thick as snow
We were its prey
Hollow as an echo
Muddled in the blow
Begging for the rain
Begging for the rain
To come our way
Bury me out in the lone Prairie
In the twilights purple haze
Bury me deep oh bury me for I’ll be here
When the grass’ll grow
And the flowers will bloom in May
When the grass’ll grow
And the flowers will bloom in May

WINDMILL
I climbed up on the golden hill
To see the city lights
Hoping time would just stay still
Be watchful of the night
I thought I heard a whisper
Turned around and not a sound
But an old, abandoned windmill
Standing solemn, without care
Dear old friend is this the land you watch upon as you dance
Each season spinning free with the wind
Tells me of the stories
The sails that lost their way
I should be heading home now
But he makes me want to stay
I listen to him closely
All the old forgotten worries
And the tales of distant memories
A whole world within a day
Dear old friend is this the land you watch upon as you dance
Each season spinning free with the wind
Each season spinning free
Time will grow and you’ll be free
It’ll soon be in the dreams of all the kids
who run to play on the hill
This is the land you watch upon as they dance
Each season spinning free with the wind
Each season spinning free

MASTER
I can see it crawling
Hear it knocking
Feel it creeping with its cunning ways
When I close my eyes and lay to rest
I think of all the pretty stories that unfolded in this pretty mess.
It seeks to be the master
To be faster
Cares not of disasters it leaves on its' way
So when I hold you tight against my chest
I think of all the horror stories you’ll be left alone to profess
It turns its eye blindly
Oh it is hungry
Makes you feel as though you are free
So when I close my eyes and lay to rest
I think of all the little ways that I can summon you, I confess.
I know what you want
So you can take it and flaunt it
Play my game and I’ll haunt you
Be the flame that will taunt you
I take what I need yeah
I’m the first one to please
Oh I’m a happy disease
that clings around and will tease you
I can hear it mocking
Feel it stalking
See you weeping as it comes your way
So when I hold you tight against my chest
I think of all the horror stories you’ll be left alone to profess

SOMETHING FISHY
There’s a river that runs through me
In the middle I must stay
With rushing waters on one side
The other stale and gray
Yet the current often draws me
From its course, hard breakaway
White waters soon lure me in
When I’ll flow
You’ll know
Keep a weather eye on the moon
Now the riverbank lives by me
The stream just brought me there
And in the glazing summer sun
In the air, in the air
A shadow rose and rose above me
And the wind, with its wings
Oh the wind it whispered in my ears
Oh come, come fly with us
Come join us for a while
Don’t fool yourself
Don’t fool yourself
Don’t save yourself from all the tears
When I’ll flow you’ll know
Keep a weather eye on the moon

IN THE SHADES
Let me chip away your shell
Let it crumble down
Fade into the ground
See the rising water swell
Let it flood you down
Watch the passing clouds
I’m the thought you want to hear
That will make you climb
Till you disappear
So come on down the water’s clear
And look past the sign
That calls out your fear
Meet me somewhere
Somewhere nice in the shade
Went outside and dug a hole
Without knowing what I was looking for
Found a bird’s nest in the soil
Whispered tales of lust
As we traded souls
Meet me somewhere
Somewhere

LIGHTHOUSE
A mountain stands with noble peak
Against the greater tide
Pacing forward, shedding fright
Searching for a place to hide
Spiral stairs lead to the skies
Where guides a moving light
For empty vessels left in fright
Searching for some peace of mind
Oh come find shelter
Your shadow clings to me tonight
Oh memories black and white
Upon the ocean here I lie
Searching for some peace of mind
