Masquerade

Show me what is in your head and heart
What you think, who you love
Show me how I can become a part of
What you think, who you love
When in crowds I scan each face for some familiar feature
Sometimes I'm so sure
But it's just a stranger masquerading in your tshirt
Borrowing your hair style
I know when we have to end our calls
Subtle changes in your tone
I can't count the times that we've shared yawns
Up at night on the phone
When in crowds I scan each face for some familiar feature
Sometimes I'm so sure
But it's just a stranger masquerading in your tshirt
Borrowing your hair style

Dishes and Spoons

Artemis, goddess of Grecian myth
Bested Cupid at shooting his arrows
She never missed her mark
Struck in each heart a spark
Of otherworldly, unending devotion
But she didn't know whose heart went with whose
The whole world's in love, and no one knows with whom
And we don't always know how to choose
Who to run away with and start anew
Just like dishes and spoons
You're waxing, you're waning
You're smiling and then you're complaining
Oh, I never know which side of you I'll see
But when you laugh your smile lights up the sky
I can't believe a word you say
You tell me what I wanna believe
And we don't always know how to choose
Who to run away with and start anew
Just like dishes and spoons
When is the next time I'll see you
You disappear just like the moon
It's just one small step off of one giant cliff
Here are three small words just to show you what I'm worth
And we don't always know how to choose
Who to run away with and start anew
Just like dishes and spoons

The Winter Season

Give your plants good reason
To brave the winter season
From your window sill
Cause you can't just put me on a shelf
And expect me to fend for myself
I need you, I need food, I need light, I need love
I need you
But I know we'll keep each other clean
Turn around and scrub the places we can't reach on our own
A ship of human kindness
Set adrift in a sea of violence
You can change the world
Or at least that's what I wanna believe
After watching all this shit on TV
Every day it's the same
All the loss and the pain gets me down
But I know we'll keep each other clean
Turn around and scrub the places we can't reach on our own
After our last fight
I stayed up half the night
You know how to hurt me
But I still think you're worth fighting for
Here's my middle finger, there's the door
But don't go for too long or I'll write you a song
Cause I love you
But I know we'll keep each other clean
Turn around and scrub the places we can't reach on our own

The Kiss and Tell
04:55

When you fall asleep
Who is it that you see in your dreams
Stay awake, remain here with me
But I won't beg or cry
I'll steal away from you
Into the night, I'll fly
Goodnight, goodnight
I can see it's too late
Is she someone that we both know well
Try to keep the facts straight
As we promenade the kiss and tell
We'll just keep on dancing
Up until the song when she cuts in
We all switch out partners
Just as a new song starts to begin
Do I fit the part
The idealistic girl who hands her heart to you
No questions asked, just show me where to move
And tell me why you cast her in my role
She's learning all my lines
Just right, just right
I can see it's too late
Is she someone that we both know well
Try to keep the facts straight
As we promenade the kiss and tell
We'll just keep on dancing
Up until the song when she cuts in
We all switch out partners
Just as a new song starts to begin

When I awoke I was stranded
On the shores where we landed
Try as though I might, no hope was in sight
Cast away and washed out on the short line
Shot up desperate flares into the night air
Punching holes of light into the sky but
We are so much more than the sum of our parts
So break my legs, my arms, and my heart
I won't pretend to know what you've been through
It's just been so hard to get to where we are
I can see that he hurt you
Bandages wrapped so tight you
Just need to say what you're thinking
Our plans changed when the boat sunk
Marked the days on a tree trunk
Why'd you have to go and leave me all alone
Who will wake you up come Monday morning
Who will talk you through the crazy things you do
Who will hold your hand until it's over
We are so much more than the sum of our parts
So break my legs, my arms, and my heart
I won't pretend to know what you've been through
It's just been so hard to get to where we are
I can see that he hurt you
Bandages wrapped so tight you
Just need to say what you're thinking
Recreate the sky on the ceiling of your room
Oh starry, starry night
Spell it out for me to read
In constellations clear and bright
They burn for us tonight
To show the way to go from here
If a tree can fit into a tiny seed
Then why can't you put some faith in me
In everything, in everything
We'll stretch our arms out towards the sun
Embracing life and love and warmth
In everyone, in everyone
We'll act on impulse, throw out our plans
Forget your parents, they'll understand
That we are young, we're still so young
Mapmaker, mapmaker, please sketch me a map
To lead me and guide me back to where you'll find me
I trust you'll know
The way to go
From here
