and in that beautiful, brief moment... 00:43
lyrics
i fell asleep on the back of your bike because silence is love in disguise

watercolors 02:15
lyrics
i saw your picture at the bottom of the drawer a little worth remembering and fighting for all of these moments we try to forget but what does that even mean in the end i saw your face at the back of the stairs coffee in the morning and asleep in your chair listen to your records and sing me to sleep and when you get up tomorrow please don't forget me please don't forget me

telephone 01:00

drive 03:34
lyrics
these days i feel so far from my home sinking slowly in my own room i walk these streets now feet burning through with streetlights on and my fingers move my home is you i walk through photographs of things we said saving up the days between life and death you're still on my wall i read you from time to time run my fingers through the cracks and the lines i run to you and when you drive away don't leave me here
5.
psalms 04:00
lyrics
a narrow staircase lined with cardboard boxes, takes me to a dim lit room your eyes say to me you wished we finish and i sink into you like judgement day an empty box of your family pictures burns like paper in the living room and songs you learned from church have echoed and died now buried in the family tomb now don’t you wait on me honey cause i may wake up and forget your name the blinds all crooked, your mail’s now piled up i look through markings of shapes you know and i keep my fingers crossed with shame now hoping one day your footsteps will show the calendar blows by as days turn into weeks pass by with no letters you write fucked up wandering through old reminders that the tide returns even on cloudy nights the hardest part of letting you go now is knowing someday your picture will fade but every moment i feel you’re leaving somehow i can still see your face

child of dirt 03:02
lyrics
someday, when the river calls my name i will run into the forest, i will fall into every burning flame someday, you'll forget my name there'll be dancing in the morning, there'll be people with tomorrow on their face because i am a child of dirt and when i give up on dying i will tell you almost everything i've learned one day, i will build a house of fools growing weeds in the garden, throwing rocks into my room one day, i'll begin love you too i will run into your arms, i will stumble and i will fall right into because i am a child of dirt and when i give up on dying i will tell you almost everything i've learned

lights 03:24
lyrics
i saw the lights glow with a thousand tiny little eyes a thousand tiny little lives they all glow with significance moving through the weight of it all i felt the wind but there's just something else i need there's an empty space to right of me and i will always keep it there til one day you decide to come around i tried to run but my legs could not catch up my legs could not catch up this time i have heard this song a thousand times a thousand times and it makes me cry ... there's a thousand tiny little lives but i'm so glad i found your eyes
8.
lake house 03:33
lyrics
i guess you wonder where i've been get lost and found again but i still try to drive this same road all my life these old songs sing at night as your love starts to die and as you speak to me i don't hear anything but i will turn the pages as my eyes begin to follow past words that i don't know anymore you tell me you're so small well darling aren't we all we kiss, we dance, we move and i'm so small with you the picture's on my wall in time will begin to fall and some will fade away til i forget their names but i will turn the pages as my eyes begin to follow past words that i don't know anymore
9.
birds 02:41
lyrics
I wander these halls now I can’t find a way out anymore Did you ever see how The light came so bright through a crack in the door I’m a fool in the flesh when I try to remember all you said Could I ever see you again They say that a love ain’t right til it’s dead Smoke fills up the old wounds Places in time that I can’t believe There’s things that you don’t do And then there are moments where you get up and leave Ain’t it a strange thing I never thought I’d miss this place like I do Like a bird with a dead wing A circle is only so far from you So now I sing your song To a handful of people drunk at the bar And as I stagger along I walk and I stumble under the stars
10.
something real enough 02:38
lyrics
i met you in the parking lot last night gas station lights shone on us like stars we looked up at the sky and wondered how far we truly were i saw you as something i could not find there were places i could not look you in the eye wanted to hold on to you like the rope i was hanging myself by there's something there about being alone we owe it to the people waiting back home i would leave if it weren't for you calling my phone every second of my life drown these tears with salt and life and love drown myself with everything i was find ourselves in something real enough i wave from behind

telephone II 01:00

sweater 01:58
lyrics
maybe when i'm older i'll forget about your hold you had on me but you're in every picture, every lyric that i sing climbing on your back i need to tell you one more thing i love you find out where it all wentfind out where it all wentfind out where it all went wrong i've never been awake enough to tell you about my dreams driving past your window i can see your light is on stood outside for hours praying the weather got it wrong please don't say you're goingplease don't say you're goingplease don't say you're going home
13.
...we swim 01:59
lyrics
i felt the breeze in the cracks of my skin carrying smoke from my sin and i came to love all that you were until i forgot what came before i fell asleep on the back of your bike because silence is love in disguise

about

WATERCOLORS
and for that beautiful, brief moment... i fell asleep on the back of your bike. the wind was blowing and i knew you then and now. "please don't forget me" i said to myself to you. sinking slowly into the floor beneath my feet i drive. one road can take you so far and i feel much safer when im away. from it all really. but i miss you. and someday, i know you will forget my name. the dirt on my hands will fade. but dont worry sweet lady. we are infinity. one thousand tiny little lives exist together at once. all loving being loved and loving others. but who are we in this mess. we are us. really. empty space is so frightening. how could i ever meet you back here when all we know is gone. memories fade and flutter but you stay. i cant read these words anymore. im long gone from those days. days where i felt something real enough. i wonder should i leave but i wonder if id be leaving you. maybe when im older ill forget about this hold you had on me. but maybe i dont want to. its all so large now. perhaps we are oceans ...we swim.
