Self-Titled (2021)
I’M SORRY
I'm sorry
I can't seem to drown them out
I'm sorry
Their voices in my head
Like toxic venom, sorry
All the conditioning
The religious teaching, sorry
I'm sorry
I'm sorry
I wish I was further along
In my journey
I wish I could be strong
And block out all my worries
God I want to stay
But oh my mind is swirling
Down the drain from all the pain
I'm scared to have a son
They say without a dad
He'll be broken
Is this really what God wants
For us to raise 4 kids as just two moms
How do I tell the love of my life
I'm scared about the afterlife
If she becomes my wife
How do I say I'm terrified
To be the reason my children
Are treated different
I'm sorry
I'm on the ledge no looking down
I'm sorry
Thought I'd have me figured out by now
I'm sorry
I wish I was further along in my journey
I wish I could be strong
And block out all my worries
God I want to stay
But oh my mind is swirling
Down the drain from all the pain
I'm scared to have a son
They say without a dad he'll be broken
Is this really what God wants
For us to raise 4 kids as just two moms
How do I tell the love of my life
I'm scared about the afterlife
If she becomes my wife
How do I say I'm terrified
To be the reason
My children are treated different
Ahhhhhhhhhhhh
I'm scared
I'm scared
But oh I'm scared
I'm sorry
I'm sorry
I'm sorry
I'm sorry
Sorry
I'm sorry
But I
I'm sorry
I'm sorry
I'm sorry
But I still believe their lies
MISS DIRECTION
Onward then
Onward then
Onward then
Onward then
So my love, my miss direction
It's time I fly
Into the great wide open
MR. CLEVELAND
I'm just a lonely roaming nomad
Passing through from time to time
I tip my hat to all my lads and sing
Don't worry I'll be fine
Cuz there's a great big world that's out there
Pressing 'gainst my fingertips
Strumming my love and best of wishes
Oh you'll be dearly, deeply missed
So so long Mr. Cleveland
I'm heading out tonight
Not really sure when I'll be coming back
So I guess this means goodbye
Goodbye
Goodbye
Goodbye
Goodbye
Woah
I'm just a quiet flower
A silent breeze
Blowing like feather-like tendencies
I skip alone so bold
Adventurously
To the drum that's beating within me
So so long Mr. Cleveland
I'm heading out tonight
Not really sure when I'll be coming back
So I guess this means goodbye
Goodbye
Goodbye
Goodbye
Goodbye
Hello Miss Direction
Would you be my guiding light
Because the smoke has cleared
but now I fear
That I'll be alone tonight
Will I be alone
Will I be alone tonight
Will I be alone tonight
Goodbye
Goodbye
Goodbye
Goodbye
Goodbye
Goodbye
Goodbye
Goodbye
Goodbye
Goodbye
Goodbye, Cleveland
HIKING CO
I can taste the sweat
Of thousand men traveling
I can see the feet
Of she who trekked before me
Underneath my toes
Hiking Colorado
I can feel their pain
Know I'll never be the same
So come on, rain
I can hear them whistling
To the birds song singing
About missing home
Hiking colorado
La, la, la, la, la
La, la la
HEY YOUTH
Follow me
She says to me
Holding out her hand
Come and see
What you're missing
Without me
Honestly
Is this something
That I need
A little wild
A little free
A little space to spread my wings
A little wild
A little free
A little space to spread my wings
To find me
Ain't that what I'm supposed to do
Ain't that what I'm supposed to do
Oh ain't that what I'm supposed to do
Ain't that what I'm supposed to do... at 22
Wait a minute
This isn't what I thought
It would be like
Can't wait another minute
Someone get me
Off this bike
A little wild
A little freaking out
A little praying on my knees
A little wild
A little freakin out
A little praying on my knees
Oh God what am I supposed to do
What am I supposed to do
Oh God what am I supposed to do
What am I supposed to do
I'm saying goodbye
I was wrong
I belong back home
With my future wife
So kill my pride
Young and fooled by
All your lies
Oh God what I'm supposed to do
What I'm supposed to do
Oh God what am I supposed to do
What am I supposed to do
Oh God what am I supposed to do
What am I supposed to do
Oh God what am I supposed to do
What am I supposed to do
POSTCARDS
A quill and ink
Spilling everything that I'm thinking
Wondering can I talk you down, and work
this out
I mail it out
In the little blue box on the other side of town
We're on the brink
Of losing touch, losing us
Tears falling in the sink
I brush 'em off, paint a smile on
Try not to blink
Try not to overthink
Another postcard
Falling on your deaf ears
Falling on your deaf, your deaf heart
Another postcard
Falling on your deaf ears
Falling on your deaf, your deaf heart
It's been 3 weeks
Haven't heard a peep
Are you getting these
I'm freaking out
I'm breaking down
On this mountain top
I'm tumbling down
Another postcard
Falling on your deaf ears
Falling on your deaf, your deaf heart
Another postcard
Falling on your deaf ears
Falling on your deaf, your deaf heart
But I still hold my breath
That some day you'll read them
And you'll remember what we had
I know they're not much but
They're all I've got so
Are they enough to bring you back
But they're just postcards
Falling on your deaf ears
Falling on your deaf, your deaf heart
They're just postcards
Falling on your deaf ears
Falling on your deaf, your deaf heart
They're just postcards
Falling on your deaf ears
Falling on your deaf, your deaf heart
SNOWBIRD
Yeah i know it's getting colder
Yeah I know we're growing older
But it's my hope we'll still remember
Each other
I find it strange
How people change
They come and go
Like the seasons in Ohio
Oh snowbird fly home
Oh snowbird fly home
Back to me
Oh snowbird fly home
(Fly home)
(Fly home)
They say my heart will heal in time
But i'm not fine
They say my heart will heal in time
But i'm not all right
They say my heart will heal in time
But trust me
I've tried
Moving on with my life
But she just might be my wife
So I look to God for a sign
Should I give up or should I fight
Should I give up for should I fight
Should I give up or should I fight
Should I give up ohhhhhh
Snowbird fly home
Oh snowbird fly home
Back to me
Oh snowbird, fly home
REGULAR
Welcome darkness, my favorite ex
I've been expecting you, watch your step
You're right on time
To steal the light from my eyes
So come inside
I'll get you some water without ice
So tell me Shadow, how've you been
It's been a while but I knew that you'd come
back again
After all this time
You still know your way
Around my mind
Cuz you're a regular in my life
Don't be shy
Come give me a kiss
I've gotta fill you in
On all the happiness you missed
Like the girl I met and fell in love with
But don't worry
I wasn't worthy of it
Darkness!
Oh, I'm starving!
We're too familiar
Dancing in the winter
Your shade of red
Deceives me again
Darkness, my favorite ex
GRAVITY
Gravity
The force between
Us, it's gravity
Pushing pulling you so close
Yet far away from me
Oh gravity
Gravity
This energy
In me, gravity
Suffocating oxygenating me
Gravity
Weighing heavy levitating me
Gravity
Oh gravity
A mystery unsolved
Why should I let me fall?
I'd rather build my walls
Cuz when I'm vulnerable
I'm in pain
But I keep chasing you
I'm insane
But I keep waiting for you
I'm in pain
I'm in pain
I'm in pain
I'm in pain
I'm in pain
I'm in pain
Gravity
Like father like son
The apple don't fall far from the tree
Hello Adam, Goodbye Eve
A mystery unsolved
Why should I let me fall?
I'd rather build my walls
Cuz when I am vulnerable
I'm in pain
But I keep chasing you
I'm insane
So I keep waiting for you
I'm in pain
I'm in pain
I'm in pain
I'm in pain
I'm in pain
I'm in pain
Why do I try?
Every time I
Just get broken down
When you change your mind
They say that loving is blind
That it just takes time
I don't care
I'm not fine
Gravity
The force between
Us, it's gravity
It's just gravity
FIGHTS WITH GOD
She fooled me once but not again
What I thought was love was just pretend
Now I lie here in ashes of us
My heart blackened from what she's done
They say there is this God above
And in Him they say I'm supposed to trust
Could You reveal Yourself to me
Cuz I'm losing my fight to breathe
Can you hear me scream
Are you listening
My heart is breaking on the floor
How do I have faith anymore
I know you're hurting, I AM too
And yes, I'm listening to you
I know you're broken from broken love
But my child I made you tough
Can you hear me scream
Are you listening
I know your heart's breaking on the floor
But you can't see what I have in store
Help me God, I can't take much more
It's gonna take some time to heal those scars
But with who can I trust my heart
Just hold onto Me, we've come this far
No, I can't believe it's just too hard...
Can you hear me scream
Are you listening
Just don't give up on me... please
Can you hear me sing
This jaded prayer like thing
Can You really bring me healing
LIGHT ON
Leave a light on and I'll come home
Its been so long, lonely nights beneath the moon
Are you giving up on me? I heard there's someone new
But what can I do
What should I do
Should I leave a light on for you
You
Should I leave a light on for you
I met someone, tender and handsome
He told me he loved me, but should I let him
What should I do
What should I do
Should I leave a light on for you
You
Should I leave a light on for you?
La la la la la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la la la la la la la la
Should I leave the light on for you?
You
Should I leave the light on for you
Should I leave the light on for you
Should I leave the light on for you
Should I leave the light on for you
Should I leave the light on for you
HONEYCOMB
Rainstick, oh the gravity abounding thee
Guiding you to make this sound
In perfect harmony
Acoustic, oh reverberating me
Through the wooden walls of honeycomb
It echoes as I sing
Electric, oh the harshness of your strings
Though the dust you shake
From all these books gives me belonging
Oh honeycomb
Oh honeycomb
Oh I'm coming home
Oh honeycomb
Ukelele, oh so tender and so sweet
Singing nylon symphonies
To nature's heartbeat
And the keys
Waiting oh so patiently
For a hand to hold this melody
That's putting me to sleep.
Oh honeycomb (I'm coming home)
Oh honeycomb (I'm coming home)
Oh I'm coming home
Oh honeycomb
[I was just so unbelievably lost. So I decided to just take this
huge leap of faith to figure myself out and I found myself
sitting in this little honeycomb room in the middle of
Georgia in the forest That was filled with all these
instruments that were just begging me "pick me up, play
me… this is who you are."]
Oh honeycomb (I'm coming home, I'm coming home I'm)
Oh honeycomb (I'm coming home, I'm coming home I'm)
Oh I'm coming home
Oh honeycomb
Oh honeycomb (I'm coming home, I'm coming home I'm)
Oh honeycomb (I'm coming home, I'm coming home I'm)
Oh I'm coming home
Oh honeycomb
BITTERSWEET
Ooo I loved her
Ooo I loved her so
But she oughtta know
This old heart can’t take no more
Ooo the blood runs slow
Ooo like honey poured
It’s bitter and it’s sweet
but oh, it’s warm
ONWARD THEN

So lonely I go, onward then
Onward then
Onward then

Onward then

Onward then
Onward then
I know you're scared

But my love, just one step forward

Cuz we're all scared shitless
So go out and take some chances
And trust in love no matter
What the outcome is
So onward then
Onward then
Onward then
Onward then
Onward then

AROAMA
Slowly, I am falling
Can we find our calling
Only space can show me
Lonely, I am roaming
Maybe you are too
My feet are moving faster
Not sure what I am after
I hear the birds sing
“What is the matter?”
I don’t know
I don’t know
I don’t know
I don’t know
I don’t know
I don’t know
