Calm Down

I will seek out some shelter
From the sleet and the snow
I will learn to forgive her
I will learn to let go
I will speak to my father
About the things he has done
I will sink in the water
With the river I'll run
Calm down
Tell me what happened
I put my feet in the water
And my face in the sun
I will think of my mother
She will think of her son
Calm down
Tell me what happened
Calm down, calm down
Calm down, tell me what happened to you back there

YOU WERE IN MY DREAM LAST NIGHT / YOU BEEN ON MY MIND
SAW YOU ON A NEW YORK STREET / YOU'RE BUSY ALL THE TIME
FOUND YOU IN A HOSPITAL / PRETTY AS A SONG
YOU WERE WEARING BLUE WHEN I ASKED YOU WHAT WAS WRONG
AND YOU SMILED AT ME / YOU SMILED AT ME, OH
YOU'RE ONE OF US NOW / YOU'RE ONE OF US NOW
SUMMERS IN THE BLUEGRASS STATE / KENTUCKY IN THE SUN
SHE TAUGHT ME HOW TO SWIM / I TAUGHT HER THE GUITAR
WENT TO LEAVE A BIRTHDAY NOTE WHEN I FOUND OUT SHE WAS GONE
SHE WAS SMILING AT ME / JUST SMILING AT ME
BROTHER, YOU ARE ONE OF US NOW / YOU'RE PART OF THIS / YOU'RE ONE OF US NOW
YOU TOOK YOUR HITS / YOU'RE ONE OF US NOW / BROTHER, YOU / BROTHER, YOU
IN NYC / 3 BLOCKS FROM THE RIVER
THE SUN WILL SEE YOU FALL ASLEEP TOO SOON
DIDN'T I WARN YOU? DIDN'T WE TALK ABOUT THIS?
THERE'S CONSEQUENCES / THERE'S CONSEQUENCES
DIDN'T I WARN YOU? WHAT ABOUT THE CONSEQUENCES?
WE TALKED ABOUT THIS / WE TALKED ABOUT THIS

Periscope

We are no match for the tide
We go where she wants to
Far away from everything that we've ever known
You went away for awhile
Apparently you're back now
You went away for too long to call this place your home
I'll put my hands up over the water
And breathe in this magnificent air
I will live; I will die right here
I took a swing at the world
She didn't even notice
I took a swing thinking I'd somehow win back the girl
If you can breathe with your hands
If you can see with your fingers
We can find our way home through your periscope

Someone Else's Future

I remember you
Bringing me back to life
I would fall for you later on that same night
Could you take me home?
I'm in no shape to drive
And I'll pretend like it's forever
Like it's not over
Like it's somebody else's life
Oh, bury the ashes and go
It is time, it is time
Are we lost if we have no idea where we are?
Maybe it's liberty
On the earth under the stars
I don't wanna go home
There's nothing left for me there
I'll pretend I'm here forever
Nothing's forever
But it's somebody else's life
Oh, bury the ashes and go
It is time, it is time
Oh, if you're thinking of following, don't
Can't you see it is time?
You were hurt by how they treated him
How they broke him into pieces
They were laughing, they just carried on
And left you here in tears
You were burning in the sunlight then
With vultures at your feet
When a stranger placed you in the shade
And covered you with leaves
Lyrics by Dainéal Parker & Alex Rhodes

Every Last Good Thing
03:56

|
I keep asking myself
"What's the last thing that I said to you?"
There was fire in my lungs
And my tongue couldn't help but set it loose
I am tired of my mouth running off every last good thing
I keep asking myself
"What's the last thing that I said to you?"
I don't know what to say
Never been much for talking
Why can't I get your voice out of my mind?
I been wondering aloud
What I'd do differently if I could
Would I spend my whole life
Keeping out everything might be good?
When I'm old and alone I will know you were my last good thing
I been wondering aloud what I'd do differently if I could
