In Retrograde

I lost my way
On a walk in the palisades
Sat down to read
Under the Wisdom Tree
Words of the wise
That fill these pages with alibis
"Forget what you're told
Hope will save your soul"
Stuck in the fold
Waiting here just to sell my soul
Wasting away
For someone else's gain
Progress is made
But its still moving in retrograde
Misunderstood
For the greater good
Stuck in a way
Waiting patiently all the same
This place took its toll
But never swallowed me whole
Well I lost my way
Thought I might find my way back someday
But hope's getting old
It never saved my soul
I lost my way
On a walk in the palisades
Sat down to read
Under the Wisdom Tree
Well I lost my way
Thought I might find my way back someday
But hope's getting old
It never saved my soul

Moves

You say its as easy as it seems
Then why did your words only disappoint me?
You say that there's no one else for me
Then why did you love only suffocate me?
Say
Your words all the same
But the language, it seems to chance
Stay
Your moves all the same
But you leave me to stand in place
Yeah, found that your word's not as it seems
You're making your moves just to step around me
You're shifting positions, I can't see
You're casting aspersions, they suffocate me
Say
Your words all the same
But the language, it seems to chance
Stay
Your moves all the same
But you leave me to stand in place
You say its as easy as it seems...

Low Grade

I've been silent
I was left by those who grew tired of my sound
I'm complacent
Estranged from those who'd wait for it to come
No permission
I was hoping I could end this condition
I'm on the mend
But these self-indicting ways see no clear end
There's not much left
I replaced my thoughts with numbness in substance
I'm on the mend
But this low grade fever lingers to no end
Padlock the fence
But the bridge still falls, it weighed down my concience
Stay one more day
But I'll just let you down and push you away
Its such a shame
Thought I'd close my eyes for good, desist the pain
Stayed one more day
To sleepwalk through this life that I can't change
Break down my dreams
But its not these demons you'll see
Unfulfilled versions of me
Wind shakes my leaves
But its not the end as it seems
So I wrote this silent story
Oh [4x]
Break down my dreams
But its not these demons you'll see
Unfulfilled versions of me
Wind shakes my leaves
But its not the end as it seems
So I wrote this silent story
I've been silent
I replaced my voice with numbness in substance
I'm on the mend
But this low grade fever lingers to no end

Drifter

Cleansing fire of the wall
Won't you...
Absolve her of her shame
Erasing promised lands
Reaching hands
Honeysuckle leaves
I'm sitting at an empty staircase (oh)
And I know there's nothing more for us to be (oh)
And I feel the tide, its drifting, drifting (oh)
And I know there's nothing more for us to be (oh)
And I feel the tide, its drifting, drifting (oh)
Rolling waters of the west
Won't you...
Reach this longing soul
I couldn't get away
No get away
So I just closed my eyes
She's out of reach, I'm drifting, drifting (oh)
And I know there's nothing more for us to be (oh)
And I feel the tide, its drifting, drifting (oh)
And I know there's nothing more for us to be (oh)
And I feel the tide, its drifting, drifting (oh)
And I know there's nothing more
Yeah, I feel the tide, its drifting, drifting
And I know there's nothing more
Yeah, I feel the tide, its drifting, drifting
And I know there's nothing more for us to be (oh)
And I feel the tide, its drifting, drifting (oh)
And I know there's nothing more for us to be (oh)
And I feel the tide, its drifting, drifting (oh)
