Heavy Doors 03:17
Have you been outside today Have you been all locked away Heavy doors keep you in Have you smelt the rain today It's coming down on the Texas plains Take my hand and wash away the pain again I want to melt the colors down Wash my hands in this old town I want to breathe the air that's true I want to watch the clouds go by Turn my back on reasons why I want to breath the air with you
2.
The Corridor 03:53
I want to take you to the light In the corridor of my mind Will you take me to the promised land Where everything is fine Hold me like you never have before And console me and hold my body to the floor Grow with me until our arms are on the shore And confide in me incandescent corridors And let there be laughter in the sun All of the houses are gone The end of an era has begun So let there be laughter in the sun

Give me some room I need to breathe Come on lets groove I want to leave The dogs are scratching It makes me itch The cats are laughing And tearing my wounds Licking my stitch But morning light came just in time And I’m doing fine These new friends that I have found Keep it quiet when I’m around But only now When I look back It makes me cry And I don’t know why But morning light came just in time And I’m doing fine These new friends that I have found Keep it quiet when I’m around

Sit still Cop a feel Go for a drive Stay inside Get in line Waste your time Here or there Do they care Paper of plastic Contempt or classic Either or You’ll want more It’s a secret in your mind Your thoughts are never kind It’s a sad, sad thing to see Not wanting to be alive Take a shower Or draw a bath Climb your towers Choose your path Go to bed Or stay up late Climb your towers Accept your fate Paper or plastic Contempt or classic Either or Life’s a bore I saw you on the floor I was closed behind a door I didn’t open up my eyes It's always a new surprise

Pool of Blue 05:12
An engine in a stall Idles and then falls Sinking in a pool of blue A bird without wings Falters in the spring Drifting down a creek of green On a lazy afternoon Cold coffee at two I watch the news Praying for rain It's always the same Boys idling outside Waiting for a ride To take them someplace new Marking Marking the time Wasting in your prime Holding out for the truth Holding on to you Idle in a pool of blue I was dreaming I was sailing Those waves were big and blue But when I woke up I looked at you I saw my face in bloom Cold coffee at two I watch the news Praying for rain It's always the same Boys idling outside Waiting for a ride To take them someplace new Marking Marking the time wasting in your prime Holding out to the truth But no one knows and no one calls your name Holding on to you

Don't let this world defeat you Keep the ground beneath you Don't let your mind deceive you Mislead you or mistreat you Cause I know who you truly are And I know that you'll reach the stars And I know I love the way you are I know that you'll go far And can I come with you I like the things you do Keep your wits about you Don't let the voices get you Don't this world deceive you Mistreat you or mislead you Cause I know you know who you are But do you know that you'll go far I love the way you are I know you're going far So don't let this world get to you Just do what you are meant to I saw your smile in a dream We were driving in a warm wind Your hair was spinning like the sea As the highway twisted in front of me We were driving and smiling in that warm wind We tired sick and torn beneath the stars and dark And the road became stretched and thin As we drove into the storm

Glass Dome 05:59
Forget what you know About our stars Forget what you know And what you've been told Cause I saw pinholes in our sky I saw candles burning bright Floating in velvet sheets Stretched across the sky A glass dome Laying on my back I saw truth Under this cosmic roof Laying on that cliff I saw you I felt my self sinking through Felt my self sinking through I felt my felt myself sinking Felt myself sinking through The world it spins and cries Can you hear its drone tonight The "um" is heard like sighs Under the moon tonight Close your eyes and breath in light Close your eyes and breath tonight I saw pinholes in holes in our sky I saw candles burning bright Amongst velvet sheets Close your eyes and lay with me The world it spins and cries Under the moon tonight Close your eyes and breathe in light Close my eyes and breathe the night

Oil Stains 05:47
I saw oil stains On the driveway Next to parked cars Baby it took me far So far away Oil stains On the drive way Next to you I saw birds and planes On the parkways Next to dark clouds Mama she was so proud So far away Oil stains On the driveway Next to you You'll carry your memories In your mind The good and the bad It's all we have You'll carry your memories In your mind The good and the bad It's all we are I saw the rainbows On the oil stains And I heard my sisters Dancing in the rain... (Dancing in the rain) Knocking on your doorstep I asked to play When time stands still You just live for a day How sweet How sweet were those days Waking up early Just to say hello to the days Ain't it kinda funny How things work that way Some kind of trigger That takes you back to those days Like an oil stain Like an oil stain

I saw you standing there Your eyes were in a stare I saw you standing there Your eyes were in a stare I caught you watching shoes Your eyes were crystal blue I saw you disappear (disappear) You were alone last night (Out) But out of sight You fought through crowds and light Is this scene becoming trite Tell me Was it out of spite I asked you what was wrong You smiled and sang along Come on come on I'm fine Come on come on Walk away All alone we twist and turn Like trees growing in the shadows And all alone Our hearts are grown Waiting in shadows I go to all the shows and attend all the pretty parties And so it goes I'm finding holes in our personalities I clean up good as though we should, treated like formality But once I'm there, I can't help but stare Watching mentalities I spent three whole years inside my mind I'm watching shoes All alone we twist and turn Like trees growing in the shadows And all alone our hearts are grown Waiting in shadows And all alone we twist and turn Like trees growing in the shadows And all alone we try so hard to be noticed in shadows
