In Afternoon

We are
Too True
And it's all
Too soon
Take a look
The flowers are growing
Lay on this bed of nails
Shoes loose
Another new New Year
It's time to roost
Another song
Make me feel less undone
I'm like the moon
In afternoon
On the rock
Where I met you
I count it all loss
Everything else I do

Death/My Arms

The birds they will sing their songs
If I have headphones on
Or if I don't
They don't even care or they don't even know that I'm there
The sun it sets every time
Pretty and perfect it's some kind of light
Sometimes I watch it
And sometimes I don't it don't mind
I dreamed that my brother died
He was swimming in the ocean
I was back on the shore
He came in to meet me and some how we both knew
He'd go out again
And never come in
Yeah he'd go out again
And never come in
I told him 'you don't have to do it!'
I held him in both arms knowing soon he'd break free
No matter what I did
No matter what I said
He'd go out again
I'd lose my dear friend
Yeah he'd go out again
And tear me open
I woke up in tears and sweat
It took me some time to know what was real
I couldn't stop crying
Until I had thought about how
How my brother will die
And so will I
Yeah my brothers will die
And so will I
And the birds will still sing their song

The Road

Tell me, tell me, tell me
What are we doing here?
When talking to the angels
Does everything seem clear?
I'm on the road
To where I don't know
And just for now
I am here but I am not at home
I'm on my own
Yet not alone
If I say it now
Can you hear me? Can you hear me?
When everything is quiet
What is it you fear?
When talking to your brother
Is talking through your tears
Will you catch them, Oh my God?
Pretend that time forgot
Fear nothing, fear no one
See the sparrow and the flowers and you'll know
I'm on the road
To where I don't know
And just for now
I am here but I am not at home
I'm on my own
Yet not alone
If I say it now
When I'm falling, yeah I'm falling
Will you catch me, Oh my God?
Pretend that, pretend time forgot
Fear nothing, fear no one
There's a beauty in the way you call me home
Will you catch me, Oh my God?
Pretend that, pretend time forgot
Fear nothing, fear no one

Hands Like Maps
02:56

The water is you
Holy and true
Cosmic complexity
Gentle and personal
Let me swim, soak
Like moonlight on still water
River at night
A reflection of the thing itself
I am the river bed
The dirt and a container
I am a tucked-in shirt
Landmarking, revelating
Reflecting at best
Or misplaced adoration
Ink in heart, magazine smile
This is gonna take a while
Hands like maps, though
Hands like past and future
Past my pupils
And the pretty mask that you despise
I am the one you chose
From the start
From the start
I am the water
I am the water
I am in you
