i can’t believe i haven’t lost my mind
or maybe this is what it feels like
so many days i been holed up inside
a little sun would prolly do me right
but i can’t bring myself to get out there
all the light has turned to grey
used to dream the day away
lost all of the joy in that
but found a way to get it back
find a way to find joy
why is that so hard to do
find a way to find joy
why is that so hard
stuck in a cycle singing something i wrote
how many foreign feeling lives ago
i wanna talk to someone i don’t know
just to remind me i got a ways to go
or i gotta take it slow
cuz at the pace i’m at
i’m gonna burn my brain out just like that
all the light has turned to grey
used to dream the day away
lost all of the joy in that
but found a way to get it back
find a way to find joy
why is that so hard to do
find a way to find joy
why is that so hard

driving a loop to the great smoky mountains
together we tried on the world for size
switched on the light and i didn’t need glasses
we call it a practice so we’re ready in time
come look at this she said, always the cosmic
prayers laminated in typewriter flow
told her i’d sleep on it, we’d figure out
one way or another how to let it go
feet up
out the window
look at some chiffarobes
over at ethan allen
blaze up
i’ll come grab you
or you could come later
it’s up to you
how many years later it was still anew
cheap electric brother for stories and tricks
didn’t need prayers we needed a manual
once it gets old all the keys start to stick
feet up
out the window
look at some chiffarobes
over at ethan allen
blaze up
i’ll come grab you
or you could come later
it’s up to you

again sometime

you laid there saying who are we
and i didn’t have an answer
in the car like we’re seventeen
don’t mean to play romancer
but it was fun it was off the cuff
we were having a good time
and it was more than just the time in your trunk
or else we wouldn’t have even tried
don’t know what i expected but what could be better?
if it weren’t for the bar telling us to get lost would we still be there?
i know my goal these days
is to get good at being alone
but we closed two bars out back to back
and i didn’t wanna go home
and neither did you so who am i
to deny what we’re feeling
and how many days gone by and i
still feel like i’m reeling
don’t know what i expected but what could be better?
if it weren’t for the bar telling us to get lost would we still be there?
i don’t know what i expected but what could be better?
to tell you the truth don’t mean to be uncouth but could we do it again sometime soon?

i don’t know what i mean but i know that i mean it
by the way that i’m feeling right now
i’m gonna try but i don’t have the words to explain it
you got me so strung out
we both know i’m full of hot air
but it’s taking us higher
it’s getting late i’m staying right here in bed with you
but you got work in the morning
i know we both need time to shut these eyes but
the rules can be so boring
we both know i’m full of hot air
but it’s taking us higher

painted arrows

not out the window
just out the door
painted arrows on the floor
not with a smile
but not a war
knowing only that we had more
to be on the other side
to see that it was right
doesn’t make it easier
to sleep easy at night
out in the open
out like a light
we were loosening like a kite
i can’t remember
try as i might
did the rain carry on when we went inside
to be on the other side
to see that it was right
doesn’t make it easier
to sleep easy at night
to be on the other side
to see that it was right
doesn’t make it easier
to keep myself from crying
not out the window
just out the door
knowing only that we have more
