Two Ships

Seemingly insatiable waves,
Floating in a body without a face
I’m noticing the parts I’ve erased
Two steps to shore to continue the chase
Between
Who I am and
Who I was and
Who I hope to be
How can we overcome
The burdens that we carry that aren’t our own?
And if I stop I’ll surely drown
The ocean’s getting hot and my feet can’t touch the ground
It’s a race between
Who I am and
Who I was and
Who I hope to be
I need two ships for sailing away on
I need two ships for sailing away on
I need two ships for sailing away on
For who I hope to be

Here, Now

I have so many questions:
will I be good enough for love?
Weaving pain into passion
Into a sense of fleeting home
Moving out of the darkness
Caught in a cave of absolutes
If I only knew
What’s here now
Here, now, scattering ashes
Onto a self I used to know
I want truth on the table
And to be guided by my love
Here, now
Into the moment
Letting the demos out to breathe
The bruises on the feet are fading away

What a Time to Be Alive

Oh.
What a time to be alive
I will scream until I die
Watch the dreams fall through the skies
Rest your head
Turn your back against the wind
Let it out and start again
And I know it hurts
Always in a sinking hole
It’s a sad, small world
Tether it all to a pole
You should be happy now
Feed the demons all your scraps
In a washed-up world
You know there’s no going back
All by myself
The loser always wins
Everything at once is spinning
Turn your back against the wind
And I know it hurts
Whether we are off or on,
It’s a one-way road
Counting the ducks in the pond
You should be happy now
To the altar, almost grown
Though invisible
Oh, what a time to be born
All by myself

Space to Grow
03:16

I’m impatient
Waiting for something to change
To see what’s been lost, and what remains
Sometimes
I’m scared it’ll all disappear
And I can’t quite stand that fear
I love you
Though it’s deafened by shame
Trying to see through
The blinding rain
Do we ever cease to grow, fully forgive or just let go?
I’m losing perspective the deeper we fall
Will we lose sight if we wander too far?
I’m learning
How to trust the unknown
Time is fleeting
And we need space to grow
