i'm going, then i am slowing down
growing, so i go below the house
owing the air i am breathing out
showing my feelings in whistlespouts
i'm right there behind you if you can believe
the world and it's people all got up to leave
what you began with is what you will hold
so you better on hurry cause i'm on the stove
i lost all my chops and i'm ready to go
turn up the heat and get on with the show
all you expected is all you will know
all that's protected is all on the stove
i'm turning into something i've been before
i'm learning a lot about self control
discerning the moment i start to roll
i'm burning the water that we will hold
i'm right there behind you if you can believe
the world and it's people all got up to leave
what you began with is what you will hold
so you better on hurry cause i'm on the stove
i lost all my chops and i'm ready to go
turn up the heat and get on with the show
all you expected is all you will know
all that's protected is all on the stove
i'm boiling,
i'm on the stove
i'm cool with it
i'm almost home

turn the leaf

fall in new england isn't all there is
leaving the city in the rain
let's give the color wheel another spin
turning the world from gold to grey
nothing to be done
except just stay inside and watch the world go passing by
afraid of all the ghosts i'll find, i'll pay attention when it's time
there's wanderlust in all of us
but some of us have missed the bus
so we wait for something great
early riser, don't be late.
gone is the window to your crowded heart
drawn are the shades upon your soul
i'm not the one, although i look the part
faster the seasons take the toll
nothing to be done
except just play along and make another silly song
walk in circles, talk in rounds, there's always something to be found
i can't explain why i remain
i won the war, you lost the game
turn the leaf in disbelief
cause everythings the same to me

it's okay to say you're sorry when you mess up
it's okay even if it takes a little long
it's okay to be forgiven when you fess up
it's ok to be loved when you are wrong
everybody makes mistakes at some point
i surely know that i have made a few
the best thing you can do is say
i'm sorry and it won't happen again
because i want to be your friend
if you let me make the mend
i'll stick with you until
the end
sometimes the hurt you cause is for a lifetime
sometimes the wound stays fresh enough to feel
sometimes your friend don't wanna see you
and you just have to give them space to heal
sometimes the never is forever
sometimes the door is always closed
if you're lucky and it opens say
i'm sorry that i could not be your friend
if i could do it all again
i'd do it differently and then
i wouldn't hurt you in
the end

i will bring you down
01:23

once upon a time
when all i told were lies
i gave you a rhyme to make you smile
will you trust in what i said?
will you trust yourself instead?
my life is like a book i've never read
but i don't know how it will go but
you should go before
i bring you down
i will bring you down
i have to make a choice
but i have lost my voice
yellow-bellied laughter fills the void
is everything a joke?
is everybody broke?
disappearing in the night like smoke
but comedy is tragedy
if you rely on me then
i will bring you down
i will bring you down

i've been so harrowed
harrowing
can you beat it?
can you just get out of here?
my skin is crawling and
i am falling away
can you defeat it?
can you make it gone for good?
i'd like to change but
i don't think i should
can you believe it??
is it right before your eyes?
or are the curtains drawn and
gone's the light?
will you repeat it?
will you make it into law?
or will you break it down and
set it free?
i've been so harrowed
harrowing

picked up some trouble
long ago
i know it's heavy that weight that you carry over and over
your shoulder must be aching
i know you're ready to drop the load and run away
and when you're older, maybe,
you won't be breaking anymore
picked up some trouble
when you were young
they say what doesn't kill you makes you stronger
but it still hurts like hell, yeah i can tell
they say you'll learn a lesson
they say you'll understand your pain
and when you need a hand you know
i got two hands to lend
picked up some trouble,
and you can't let go
picked up some trouble,
and you should know
you don't have to bear it on your own
you don't have to walk that road alone...
