borrowed strength

I'm not looking for signs/ it's enough that I see your face each day in mine/ I'd like to thank you for your life/ I'd like to thank you for being in mine/ from across our parted minds/ we don't know what's inside/ thank you/
I'll always be amazed by your borrowed strength/
Some day soon will I have to borrow strength too?/
Some day soon will I have to borrow strength from you?

best friend
01:58
|
|||
|
Sometimes I sail myself/ all my noise, and ugly thoughts/ straight down where the current's strong/
Sometimes I pretend/
a river's my best friend/
Straight down where the current's strong/
when I am not.

I remember conversations that we used to have all the time/ I remember the shape of your hands/ that tiny scar on your cheek/
I'm sorry that the world didn't turn out to be what you thought it was/ I'm sorry that I didn't turn out to be who you thought I was/
Remember the time I changed?/
Remember the time I changed without-/
Remember the time i changed, with me/
It's funny- the things we choose to remember and forget

i'll lead you to water when i know you won't drink/ you'll pretend everything's all right/ i'll do the same/ playing happy games/ now we're speaking in the spaces in between our words.

blind words
06:06
|
|||
|
sometimes we drink ourselves blind/ walk home watching the sun rise/ I play at being cold but I know that I'm/ just too far from home and scared of what I've become/
we're going out to be alone/ far apart when the bars close/ far apart when we're close/ we're going out alone

|
i work nights/ he works days/ he's not right but/ i think he could be ok/ i work hard/ trying to save/ i've got a couch at night/ and a guitar for the day/ when i walk all day i/ sink myself in between/ cobblestone streets.

fat kids
04:08
|
|

|
i sang before you even said a word/ we walked across the bridge that first night/ two weeks/ for two weeks/ for two weeks we had/
fat kids on couches/ fat kids in parks/ two bottles of portuguese wine/ fat kids in american hearts/
i'll see you again/ i tell myself what i need to hear/ i'll see you

|
are you proud/ of what you've built/ got a ring/ and a closet filled/ you're not young/ you're not/ i'd rather/ turn my white shirts blue/ than play around in business suits/ i'd rather/ waste my youth/ i'd rather try something new/ i'm not just a girl in/ high-heeled shoes/ I'm not just a girl in/ a business suit/ i'm fine here/ a guitar and cheap beer/ i'm fine here/ a guitar/ are you proud/ i think i've made my point

surviving days
04:18
|
|||
|
you promised me that when i grew up i could be anything/ well where are you now and how will i know when i make you proud/ there's a difference between living and surviving days/ it's not that hard to forget/ just work hard sleep hard drink hard sing hard/ sing like a dark ship/ sing like a dark ship passing through the night/ there's a difference between living and surviving days/ i promise you that if you get up you can be anything/ when the world finds its ends it turns and starts again

we climbed up
01:45
|
|
||
|
we climbed up breathing in the blue of the sea/ navigating forgotten streets we lived in the breeze/ looking down we lost the need to speak/ without words we sang out to the open sky/ we climbed up/ we climbed up/ remember us/ remember us/ remember

weight (wait)
04:46
|
|||
|
we're dancing shoes cast in cement/ the steps are hard and heavy and they hurt/ singing across a distance so close/ from my river to your rows of grapes/ i'll wait for/ i'll wait for/ i'll wait/ will you wait for/ trains and buses and planes/ trains and buses and planes/ trains and/ buses and/ planes/ i'm terrified but it's too late/ roots are falling into place/ i keep the cork from every bottle we drink/ i'll wait for/ i'll wait for/ i'll wait/ will you wait for/ trains and buses and planes/ trains and buses and planes/ trains and/ buses and/ planes/ i'll wait for/ i'll wait for/ i'll wait/ will you wait for me?
