Marie 03:06
lyrics

Make no mistake I’m driftwood lost at sea cruising down the reef We have no pace We get there when we get there, don’t be giving me grief Marie, Marie You ain’t as funky as you seem You’re too obsessed with time I’m laying on the beach wishing I liked wine Drift back to earth And curses to the person that makes me hurt Cool dudes come out at full moon As sand lovers, they hide behind dunes Marie wants to hang too soon Oh wait, we good, they were fakers too Marie, Marie You don’t need cool dudes to feel happy Listen to me every once and awhile Just lay down on the beach I promise you’ll wanna smile Marie, Marie You ain’t as funky as you seem You’re too obsessed with time I’m laying on the beach wishing I liked wine \ The full moon bursts And curses to the person that makes me hurt We all disperse And curses to the person that makes me hurt

Patty Got Turned to an Eagle 03:41
lyrics

I’m calibrated to your vibe Such good friends and so little time Well the world you built is becoming a bummer And it will collapse in the hot summer It will surely last past this summer Connected through wires, we’re internet lovers But this moment is going void If you stick together it will be by choice You’re no longer forced together So when they stay it will be much better Patty got turned to an eagle Hope he comes down soon Patty got turned to an eagle Though when he lands his mind will be new In this stranded island you found a home You’re pretty lucky you’re not so alone This is the first time you’ve connected souls Doesn’t it feel great to be apart of a whole Patty changed the other day He grew some wings and flew away They stayed behind to change back his wings No you can’t see them, but you hear them sing “Patty come down Or maybe you can stay up If you feel fulfilled Who am I to judge?” Patty got turned to an eagle He seems really happy there We hope that he keeps flying As you vanish into the air Patty got turned to an eagle Above the ground he hovers I am there when he lands And you care for eachother Yea you care for eachother (x8)

Sunk Back Down 02:58
lyrics
buy track
Force down fear Feel my spine Kill this tear Tare our sights Well I go back down just to see you there How I love your beautiful stare Yes I sunk back down just to feel my hair Stand up to remind me I’m still there Love hurts everyone Love heals wounds Eighteen years To make me move Well I go back down just to see you there How I love your beautiful stare Yes I sunk back down just to feel my hair Stand up to remind me I’m still there Dare to outlast The hunger for love in a cast You’re going to feel my wrath It's been building for ages, and it's gonna break at your door

Hey boy, you seem really nice Hey boy, can I stick my finger into your eye Hey boy, you seem fine Hey boy, do you like nice ice Hey boy, do you melt nice ice My blanket of depression Making quite the impression My blanket of depression Making quite the impression on me Hey boy, do you share your sadness inside Hey boy, do you like feeling justifide Hey boy, lions can’t hear what sheep say Hey boy, those sheep were lions yesterday Hey boy, those sheep were lions yesterday My blanket of depression Making quite the impression My blanket of depression Making quite the impression on me You are one of a kind You’re making fancy people dimes One million one of a kinds Oh hey that’s one million dimes for them Oh hey that’s one million dimes for them (one million dimes) (x4) Oh hey that’s one million dimes (one million dimes) (x4)

Three Tickets for Options 05:15
lyrics
buy track
I believe I’m your savior But I know I will bring you down I see my pointed arrows so clearly They fly at my soul, and they fly freely Good luck for now I brought you down I brought you down You hate me now I don’t blame you, I can’t talk very well In the universe, my thoughts are pests Can I put my feelings in your chest? And tell you the rest When I feel my best When I feel my best You’re not everybody’s best friend Ten seconds to make my mind bend I want two tickets to run I want three tickets for options I built this religion to fill a void I have a cult of just this boy I am a beast to a select few Well that good to here, I’ll say on the move And keep with this groove Making sure I don’t loose Make sure I dont loose You’re not everybody’s best friend Ten seconds to make my mind bend I want two tickets to run I want three tickets for options I give a salute to those that see through the lie I hide inside Fake calmness on tap, speaking in mute from the lie I hide I give a salute to me and my mood cause I cling to your side Fake calmness screw off we don’t need you, so die (x2) You’re not everybody’s best friend Ten seconds to make my mind bend I want two tickets to run I want three tickets for options

Sea Foam 02:36
lyrics

Waves crashing down on a lonesome beach Seafoam touch my toes shiver through my feet To deep to forget yet I forget to keep To keep the memory of this infinite sea Cool vibes won’t die with your seatide Don’t feel alone Feel home with seafoam Since when did dancers claim to know the answer They can bust a move but not make a mars lander They excuse this tune cause they don’t want to move Apparently a party needs a lesson to groove Cause ya can’t have a party in a motel room Gonna get real cramped and breath toxic fumes Cool vibes won’t die with your seatide Don’t feel alone Feel home with seafoam There’s a beautiful horizon in my mind Wanna buddy and a bruiser to keep my kind Got this perfect picture in my mind Wanna buddy and a bruiser to keep my kind Cool vibes won’t die with your seatide Don’t feel alone Feel home with seafoam

Had I Known Wes Was Going 02:22
lyrics

Let’s sit alone in my bedroom Just imagining the fun Let’s sit alone in my bedroom My sister has in the sun Well I forgot what they said about fun I thought that they just blocked out the sun I would have gone had I known Wes was going I would have gone had I known I’d not be lonely Johnny got turned to an eagle Hope he comes down soon Johnny got turned to an eagle So fabulous as his wings move Gotta get him out of my head He’s abandoned me since I’ve abandoned him Leave him be, but don’t play dead He’ll be glad to see me again So I forgot how to walk forwards Without a friend for life support I would have gone had I known Wes was going I would have gone had I known I’d not be lonely

Go Home 04:05
lyrics

Thirteen years I was drifting through settlements Makeshift abodes that my spirit could settle in Year fourteen I was given to a tribe And we found out together that we were all lies We grouped in the forest to see where paths lead We slept next to each other to see if we bled And we did Felt like I lived (x2) I was home I was home I was home I was home It was there I discovered my messed up side A split down the middle I still try to hide Well a majority of folks simply don’t know But if they ask I will gladly show them my bones I wanted to feel his skin I wanted to let him in I thought he was what I wanted I never want what I wanted I’ll go home I’ll go home I’ll go home I’ll go home I’ll go home I’ll go home I’ll go home I wanna go home No please and thank you my dear One more season till I show my fear I don’t help I have got this down And tell those kids not to yell so loud (x4) Go home (x2) No please and thank you my dear One more season till I show my fear I don’t help I have got this down And tell those kids not to yell so loud Go home

A Deserted Whistle in the Dark 05:10
lyrics
buy track
I want your soul in my hand I’m gonna send you off to hopeful lands Not any painbirds will fly to your shores And your legs will work so you’re not stranded on the floor Catch me whistle in the dark Catch me whistle in the dark No amount of water can cure my heart A deserted whistle in the dark I am thinking of you in my bed I want to cling to what you haven’t said Misery can come to me Almost 3 AM, who needs sleep? Catch me whistle in the dark Catch me whistle in the dark I’m sick and crying from another fresh start A deserted whistle in the dark Let’s see my feet move Loose what I am, gain what I choose This spirit world is bruised Another chance to receive an excuse Catch me whistle in the dark Exclude the moods that set me apart Hear my calls then claim your cart With a deserted whistle in the dark Catch me whistle in the dark
