Figure8 

Release: 2012

Breathe your smoke into my lungs

In the back of the car with you I stare into the sun

Still not too old to die young

The lovers hold on to everything

And others hold on to anything

I chased your love around a figure 8

I need you more than I can take

You promised forever and a day

And then you take it all away

Place a kiss on my cheekbone

Then you vanish me

I'm buried in the snow

But something tells me I'm not alone

But lovers hold on to everything

And others hold on to anything

I chased your love around a figure 8

I need you more than I can take

You promised forever and a day

And then you take it all away

So, Lovers hold on to everything

And others hold to anything

I chased your love around a figure 8

I need you more than I can take

You promised forever and a day

And then you take it all away

Wish I Stayed

Release: 2010

Why can't we speak another language

one we all agree on

why when men look outside do they see houses

instead of fields they grew from

we are constantly uprooted from them

making us tiresome and fearful

can you get up right now

and endeavor freefall (off)

'Cause you can fall if you want to

it's just a matter of how far

you've treasured your home town

you've forgotten where you are

and it will stay with you

til' your mind's been found

and it has been found

wondering around.

Without a skipping rope

A trampoline

A Crafty smoke

they've made a simpler way to give up

it's the simple ways

of getting payed

the carelessness of lieing awake

oh I wish I stayed

I wish I stayed

I wish I stayed

Patterns all arranged in my backround

It's pillars and posts keeping this country on form

letters were all sent with no addresses

so that people can't scuffer

always undercover

why do I always draw triangles

instead of words

it's paint so it serves

'Cause you see

I don't own my clothes but I own my mind

And it's not what you've lost

but it's what you'll find

Without a skipping rope

A trampoline

A crafty smoke

they've made a simpler way to give up

it's the simple ways

of getting payed

the carelessness of lieing awake

I wish I stayed

I wish I stayed

Can you can fall if you want to

It's just a matter of how far

You've treasured your home town

You've forgotten where you are

and it will stay with you

til' your mind's been found

and it has been found

wondering around.

Without a skipping rope

A trampoline

A crafty smoke

they've made a simpler way to give up

it's the simple ways

of getting payed

the carelessness of lieing awake

I wish I stayed

Starry Eyed
Release: 2010

Oh, oh, starry eyed
Hit, hit, hit, hit, hit me with lightning

Handle bars, and then I let go, let go for anyone
Take me in, and throw out my heart and get a new one

Next thing we're touching
You look at me it's like you hit me with lightning
Ahhh

Oh, everybody's starry-eyed
And everybody goes
Oh, everybody's starry-eyed
And my body goes
Whoa oh oh ah ah
Whoa oh oh ah ah
Whoa oh oh

So we burst into colors, colors and carousels,
Fall head first like paper planes in playground games

Next thing we're touching
You look at me it's like you hit me with lightning
Ahhhh

Oh, everybody's starry-eyed
And everybody goes
Oh, everybody's starry-eyed
And my body goes
Whoa oh oh ah ah
Whoa oh oh ah ah
Whoa oh oh

Next thing we're touching

Hit me with lightning

Oh, everybody's starry-eyed
And everybody goes
Oh, everybody's starry-eyed
And my body goes

Whoa oh oh ah ah
