Boneville Part II

Now you’re just a song I once wrote and kept on singing,
While I drove you into the ground,
On my way to becoming who I would be
But in that time I learned about myself and my place in everything
Just too little too late to slow our unavoidable fates
While the tow truck ran late
I had time to sit and think about
how you’d be replaced
and the memories would warp and change
But the time past would never be erased
And I chuckled to myself at the inconvenience of
breaking down in front of a convenience store
And the absurdity of worrying about my credit score
Bonneville now your story is no more
but you’ll live on in my own folk-lore
we can’t know what the future has in store for us
But I can guarantee that time will pass
Relentlessly
And what it has done to you it will do to me
And everything

Put the Past Behind

Squinty eyes in July
In nowhere Illinois
Fireworks and fireflies
Lighting up the night
I’d never seen into my brothers eyes
turns out they look like mine
You and I could fight
For the rest of our short
Meaningless lives
Or we could make things right
Set our differences aside
Raise our white flags high
standing eye to eye
And put the past behind

Digital Age

Its easy to have something to say
But hard to take the time to listen
In the digital age
Staring at screens the whole day through
Our bodies might be side by side but our minds are so far away
We need to find a way to escape
From our digital cage
We need to find a better way to connect
In the digital age
Im guilty and so are you
So lets get it together
Or we’re all doomed
Sure it ain't all bad,
But it ain't all good
We need to find a way to escape
From our digital cage
We need to find a better way to connect
In the digital age

Aim to Be

I'm not the man I could be
I'm not the man you deserve
I'm not the man you see in me
But I aim to be
When I start to pull away
When my mind begins to stray
When my words fail to warm you night
I know I’m not the man I could be
I'm not the man you deserve
I'm not the man you see in me
But I aim to be
Each morning that I wake
With each breath that I take
I want nothing more than to love you
Endlessly
Though I’m not the man I could be
Though I’m not the man you deserve
Though I’m not the man you see in me
I aim to be

What Comes Next?
06:25
|

|
The world outside my window
Is foreign to me
But it's awful green
The future is filled with uncertainty
and possibilities
And I know it will pass
As the present becomes the past
Familiar now, the changes seem
The leaves fall so predictably
Between the bars and groceries
Creature comforts don’t come free
But I know it will not last
As the present fades to past
I know this too will pass
But what comes next?
Again and again to start anew
Feeling only for future tense
Places, names, and faces I've known
Become memories that sparkle and dim
But I know they will not last
As the present fades to past
I know this too will pass
But what comes next?
