Hey let's meet after school
At the fence by the pool
Then we could go by your place
And drink that gin your Mom hides away
When we were young
We would just run
From the sinking feeling
And now we're grown
We're left alone
With the need for healing
There was a girl at my school
Dressed in black and looking cool
She never said a word to me
Just passed me notes with her poetry
When we were young
We would just run
From the sinking feeling
And now we're grown
We're on our own
With this need for healing
Hey let's meet after school
Run away with me it's cool

Apartment N

The little girl plays handball all day
It's how she keeps the blues away
And I awake to the sound it makes
The fear subsides as the plaster breaks
The rhythm pounds the apartment shakes
Her ball is red
She stands three feet tall
And when she stops the silence is deafening
It seems so still like a storm cloud that's threatening
It makes the night
Seem so long
My child waits so far behind me
Down at the lake you took my hand and found me
And then I hear footsteps on the landing
The sun is up and her ball is bouncing
It makes me feel
Everything's alright
I think it so bad
Today I should be glad
Never feel so mad
This place ain't so bad
My child waits so far behind me
Down by the lake you took my hand and found me
And when I think about time it confounds me
How we grew apart astounds me

Ascender

I had a vision of the sky
It's raining colors in my eyes
And this vision is my life
I will ascend into the mind
We will ascend into your mind
Into another space and time
Through a flame that never dies
I had a vision
And made a decision
Then drew a conclusion
This world is illusion
I had a vision
And made a decision
Then drew a conclusion
Their world is delusion

Tell Me How
03:12
|

|
Walking home alone again
I need you now
Like I had you then
Now we are so far away
From a time and place
Where our dreams will stay
I'm sending out this call to you
To come back here now
To think it through
Life is long and strange it's true
That I wish and prayed
For more days with you
Why does it all change
They say it's never good to stay the same
But It's no better now
With you gone forever tell me how
Fly me through this long dark night
I know you're there
I'm searching for your light
Reach for me
And I'll take your hand
Leave it all behind for your promised land
Lead me to something new
To get me out
Move me through
Time is behind the wheel
You've got to steal
Things that feel
Why does it all change
They say it's never good to stay the same
But It's no better now
With you gone forever tell me how
Tell me how
Tell me how
Tell me how

Then I'll Know
03:24
|

|
Feeling the lonely heart again
Needing the warmth of your touch in the end
Reaching the only place where there's a friend
She told me don't think too much about how and when
Fixing the broken things in this life
And all the words spoken they cut like a knife
I'll wait for the sunrise to carry on right
And when midnight comes again I'll cling to your light
Let love show
Then I'll know
