Compost

Let your self let go of your grip if it means that someone gets theirs
Just don't forget what it felt like to not hold on with all your might
So light, weightless, unwind, notice what's always been there to be found
Mind gets hectic, direction neglected, beauty will come in from the sides of your mind
We know
What we're made of
Compost
From some point in time
There's hope
Buried in the ground
We'll be fine
Find the right kind head space to occupy, don't matter, really, how you arrived
A million steps to take on all sides that lead you to the next flash of your life
A sudden memory that you've been here before, what was that? Shake it off, time slips through the cracks
Every moment that your heart skips out of line makes a mark, stays with you forever

We're not so different you and me
From all of our technology
Digital fingerprint scan
Is the new form of shaking hands
But its alright
We're keeping up with the times
And it's okay
What good are thoughts anyway?
The world we've come to understand
That we never could have planned
It's got me stuck
Enough's enough
Living in constant demand

Human Things

Getting further from my memories
Developing a funny style
Of understanding time moves with me
Like standing next to a sundial
Studying
Human beings
Studying
Human things
Been around the country listening
To the highway drone with every mile
Fading out by existing
Feeling stronger all the while
Trying to give up indifference
Closing up the distance

No More Looking Down
02:45
|

A billion thumbs tap the glass of a never ending void
So much I don't care to know get shoved directly down my throat
Sleeping through the changes that are fucking up our world
But we're dreaming of our perfect self, a million friends but where's the party?
Wake up on the ground
Face up freaking out
You can send a message if you make it loud
No more looking down
If you can make some sense of out the slice of life you're living
Speak your truth by living it, too many of us talking shit, starting to believe in it
Simple man, yeah what do I know?
Plant your seeds and watch them grow
We're all connected, everything, I've met the Earth I feel it breathing
I just wanna make sound, I just wanna make noise

Pinhole Projector
05:00
|

Did I miss something or has there been a shift in atmosphere?
'Cause I could have sworn I knew exactly what I was doing here
If I could sample everything my choice would be so clear
Got a pinhole projector when I asked for a full length mirror
Dragging my feet far behind me
I have got no sense of urgency
What a waste time's turned out to be
I say this now but I guess we'll see
If it sounds like I'm complaining I guess that's because I am
But I'm grateful for the chance to do things just because I can
There's meaning in the execution of the day to day
Frustrating being asked what's next 'cause I got nothing good to say
If forever's just a long time
Then never's just a state of mind
And the weight of the world's always shifting to one side
If you think you're getting nowhere I could give you a ride
'Cause I can be a mess and still have a good time

You Are Here
02:53

Think I'm running out of time
Even though the day is long
How you doing? I'm fine.
Break the silence with a song
Why you seem so far away?
Can't hear anything you're saying
I make you repeat everything
Just doesn't resonate the same
Waiting, waiting
Check my feelings
Hoping answers
Happen to me
If I could be anything
I'd be a piece of everything
Being one dimensional
Is a myth we keep perpetuating
Been waking up earlier
Trying to watch the times change
Staring down the same roads
Hours that I've thrown away
Vivid pictures in my mind
Of places I will never find
Fleeting moments I create
Weakening my mental state

Hear Me This

Hear me this
The whole friends bit
Is wearing thin and it just so happens
Those eyes that did me in are what gave you away
We can't hide anymore
'Cause we've shown too much
If we held it all inside anymore
I think I'd go nuts
Please don't make me beg I can explain
The difference between then an now is plain
And please don't make me go back to my own way
'Cause I can't trust myself to find a better time than now
To make this happen
Hear me this
Hear me this

Shiny Bright Lies
03:13
|

It seems to me that if you could help it, you wouldn't make such a big deal
Outta everything you don't lift a finger to make change, pretend you're helping
Acknowledged is your contribution but at this time
We're not accepting shiny bright lies
Rejected is your content meant to trap the minds
Of those who can't see through it
Can we agree that there's too much talking to think straight about what sounds real?
We need a little space so that we can filter out sounds, 'cause not all are welcome
You can't fool me
I'm not buying
What you're selling
What I need I find it
What I need I find it
