“A New Child” Key: G
[verse]
I swear I saw it
Like a new beginning of
A movie in America
It was something that you dreamed of
We were dancing somewhere Under a 30 foot ceiling roof Running off of helium
It was nothing like we came from
[chorus]
After all the things we’re leaving behind And the days we’ve grown
With our hearts of stone
I'll still believe in something we’ll find Through the cold and bones
Have a faith in home
[verse 2]
Now you were talking sweeter
A woman that could shine room
Like the longest day finally through And I was smoking all the way to you
And I felt like a new child
Not a memory to be running from sometimes it lasts for long
[chorus]
After all the things we’re leaving behind And the days we’ve grown
With our hearts of stone
I'll still believe in something we’ll find Through the cold and bones
Have a faith in home
[bridge]
With all this stale fear on my mind I’m just holding on for now
With all this stale fear on my mind I’m just holding on for now
With all this stale fear on my mind I’m just holding on for now
With all this stale fear on my mind I’m just hanging on for now
[chorus]
After all the things we’re leaving behind And the days we’ve grown
With our hearts of stone
I'll still believe in something we’ll find Through the cold and bones
Have a faith in home

October Song

|
[verse]
I’m falling off the line
In a folding night in smoke
And she laid me there
Looking past the walls for something
Now I’m tearing the room for a burning light of faith And she laid me there
In her kinder arms I turn
[chorus]
When you’re stoned
On the floor
In a fire
“You can’t blame yourself”
“For the toll
Is clearing now”
Oh come on; come on love
[verse]
Now I’ve covered my mind
With the song of heaven’s toil
When she laid me there
Oh I’m counting on this love of mine
[chorus]
When you’re stoned
On the floor
In a fire
“You can’t blame yourself
For the toll
Is clearing now”
Oh come on; come on love
[outro]
Oh come on; come on love(x3)

[verse]
The whole word is now going mad Oh well it just haunts my mind Nobody is here anymore
So can we leave it all behind
[chorus]
We’ll burn those bridges now Cuz you were flower in the cracks And I’ve never felt like that
[verse]
You were holding your mother’s heart Still feeling a family loss
So can we just meet somewhere
And leave it all behind
[chorus]
We’ll burn those bridges now Cuz you were flower in the cracks And I’ve never felt like that
Cuz you were flower in the cracks And I’ve never felt like that
[bridge 1]
Well I’m overthrown
And I’m tired of high hopes But I can’t be gone
If you won’t be gone
[hook 1]
Oh that’s what I want That’s what I want That’s what I want That’s what I want
[bridge 2]
With all these draining miles Oh it’s fading I know
For those golden days we’ll find
[hook 2]
Oh that’s what I want That’s what I want
That’s what I want That’s what I want
So stay for a little while

Don't Let Me Down

|
[verse]
“These days are short and frail,” She says "They’re always fading by"
But somehow we found home
Now the days are kind
[chorus]
Don’t let me down with this feeling When darling I’m still far from you
[verse]
We pray the rain won’t come, so soon While she holds my stolen eyes (eyes) So if time could drag its feet
We could stay all night (ah)
[chorus]
Don’t let me down with this feeling When darling I’m still far from you x2
[Outro] ooooh x4

The Wind and Her Song
02:48
|
|||
|
[verse]
I wanna hear the wind and her song
If it’s where you are or where you wanna be With chronic anxious strains on heavy arms And it’s just so hard you’re just so hard to reach
[chorus]
For all the days colliding you are Unfolding a woman I
Idolize
[verse]
The fallen timber sat for so long
And your family weighs like concrete on your shoes All you wanted was a new morn
So you tell yourself it’ll all be over soon
[chorus]
For all the days colliding you are Unfolding a woman I
Idolize

Forest Fire
04:38
|
|||
|
Hallucinating my apartment
With fingerprint stained windows This fever dream beholden holy It’s familiar and brief, I know
It’s a fleeting kind of fable
[chorus]
In this forest fire
For how long?
Well don’t blame me Don’t blame me
[verse]
Leaning in to all the cracks now
All my foolish faith is spilled on the floor Can we ever know at all?
Oh won’t you tell me right
Is it leaving me unstable?
[chorus]
In this forest fire
For how long?
Well don’t blame me Don’t blame me
[Outro] Days spent Haunted Patience Patience
Creatures Talking Patience Patience
Like a Basement Garden Patience Patience
Healer Are you Patient Patient
(x2)

“Brown Box”
[verse]
They say nothing lasts forever, You’ll be always wanting more It’s all the same shit
I’ve heard before
Now I’m trying to wash away All the tired things they say To distract me
From finding you
[chorus]
But that’s alright I guess it’s alright With me
[verse]
If love’s an invitation
For my fragile heart to break Then that’s what I want
If it breaks for you
Cuz if 40 years from now I’ll be 6 feet underground In brown box
Next to you
[chorus]
Well that’s alright
That'd be alright
With me
Oh that’s alright
That’d be alright with me
[bridge]
Oh tell me that the woman that I love is holding my hand as we walk on through Those golden gates although I think it’s just a myth to make us feel happy for a while
[chorus]
Well that’s alright That'd be alright
With me
Oh that’s alright
It’s be alright with me

“Landslide” Key: C
[verse1 ]
Catch me on a landslide Falling out the room
You say it’s for the last time The growing pains of youth
Say "buy yourself a romance" And tie it to your feet
Then force it like a slow dance With hollow folds of green
[chorus]
Now I’m tearing up myself
Like an early night with red shot eyes Will it all be over soon?
Feels like all the time I'm terrified Oh wish I’d call the whole thing off
[verse2]
A dream
Of somewhere far from here And it’s softer than before
And I’m sleep talking
Of somewhere greener
Can’t wash it off my mind With the new light in the room
[Pre-c]
But sooner or later it comes back to me and And leaves me all alone
[chorus repeat]
Now I’m tearing up myself
Like an early night with red shot eyes Will it all be over soon?
Feels like all the time I'm terrified Oh wish I’d call the whole thing off
[outro]
Oh I’ll hold on to start again And I’ll find home somewhere
For this strange landslide won’t last for long If it’s heavy on my feet
Keep walking
Just Keep Walking on Keep Walking
keep walking on
Just keep walking Keep Walking
Keep Walking
