A Cold Wind 03:18
Where darkness meets the lightness Or rather the lightness meets the darkness Before the sun is way up As the room warms and I wake up Her chest in beads of sweat Each bead like morning dew I blow a cold wind Quietly across her skin A few drops ran from the peaks of her right breast Chasing after one another to her tender ribs To that lucky sheet Oh that lucky sheet I blow a cold wind Quietly across her skin From the moon’s shadows Where in it’s sunshine lid He feels only her smile Through the stars spaces Where in it’s perpetual gift He feels only her gaze Between the clouds grays Where in it’s nebulas rinse He feels only her breath Beneath the ocean’s cliffs Where in it’s abyssal kiss He feels only her lips I blow a cold wind Quietly across her skin

I can barely breath In the right bright light Of some mid rise town I can barely see In the right bright light Of some mid rise town I can barely swim In the right bright light I think I’m gonna drown I can barely walk In the right bright light Of some mid rise town I can barely think In the right bright light Of some mid rise town I can barely sink In the right bright light I think I’m gonna drown Hey, there’s no need to blame Accept the nonstop rain In the right bright light Don’t stop the rain In the right bright light I think I’m gonna drown

Berlin, that’s what I’m in I’m thinkin’ about David Thinkin’ about Iggy Broken glasses And a dead phone Torn sheet of paper On my tongue I’m out here on my own The hotel is close Just across that bridge Performers in the streets threatening me I gave them a twenty bit was all I had The hotel is close Just cross that bridge Then turn right at the wall in Berlin I was lost So stop for a drink “Do you know where this hotel is” I ask the man tending the bar “You are in this hotel, my friend” He simply gave me the key He did not question a thing Berlin, that’s what I’m in

Getting in the taxi cab Going to the hotel bar The driver ask me where I’m from Does it really matter It’s a half past three When I tell him my life story Seems the ride is too long Now he won’t let me leave Now he knows too much To let me go

Guntime 03:46
Driving and riding Moving down the autoroute Looking out the window Chatting with my good friend And what do I see But a young man Leaning out his window With a gun on me I thought this was the city of romance I thought this was where I’d be safe I thought this was where the world would be fare I guess I made a mistake And the Paris said “This kind of thing happens all of the time. They’re just kids having a guntime”

Blueberries 03:35
I caught a cloud of particles Made of ageless skin Sold it to a street man with two glass eyes He told me that being blind was the best thing that had ever happened to him And from what he’d heard there was nothing worth seeing He then said he was born blind I didn’t know if I trusted him He was clearly getting old I could tell by the color of his tongue That he was dying from the inside out Or maybe he had a taste for blueberries I told him he could try a little of my ageless cloud but he insisted on paying before testing So I cut out my eyes and put them in back garbage bag After a few minutes I wondered my way back to the street man And after many conversations I convinced him to trade me my eyes for his cane He looked at me confused and said he had lost the cloud I put my eyes back his face Looked up and he could see high above all of the buildings in the city the was floating So I ran I ran to the side of the build Took the fire escape Took the stairs for three floors Took the elevator for three more And when I reached the roof I climbed a cell phone tower I could see the entire city And there, I caught a cloud of particles Made of ageless skin

I Need You 06:03
Sometimes I need you to say You need me to say I need you Sometimes

Here in this dug well There is where those blue birds fell Where the hills meet the valleys We can go where nobody knows Where the valley meets the river Quiet and calm we move along Freeze temptation off their burning skin Make their prisyn feel like a hidden heaven Even when the door is wide open and the hell outside is begging for their hands Let them wait for that perfect time to escape To fly out Here in this dug well There is where those blue birds fell Sweethearts, don.’today you ever give in Even when you are at your end
