I thought I saw you / In endless fields of green
The water was blue / And okay to drink
You lost count of the trees / Underneath our bodies
Everyone’s so small from / All the way up here
Where have you been all day
Everyone’s got questions
And you’ve missed everything
Everyone’s got questions
They’re all for you
Where are all the trees / They’re cutting them all down
Piling up the branches / Underneath our bodies
Where have you been all day
Everyone’s got questions
And you’ve missed everything
Everyone’s got questions
They’re all for you
Where have you been all day
Everyone’s got questions
And it must be so hard
Living your life thinking
It’s all for you

Inside this head of mine / We’re back in time
On a beach / The Atlantic
You’re drinking white wine / I’m almost done with mine and
It’s windy / in this head of mine
Now we’re in a car / heading towards a cliff
You’re screaming / Quinn please brake please
My apartment is full of holes / in the drywall
From when I lose my temper
If you leave I’m gonna be a fish / Jumping and squirming around
If you leave just tell me where / God I must be dreaming
Wake up

Serpentine / still alive
Rain or shine
Despite it all / through the wall
Still alive
Once again / Oldest friends
Nothing new

It will be long and frustratingly slow
It’s gonna ask more from you than you know
But in the end we’ll shine inside it’s glow
And I will thank you all for the good times
I’ll thank you all for the good times
Give me a long and slow burning winter
Like skin growing over splinters
A warm place for softening the edges
And looking back on all the good times
Remembering all of the good times
It will be long and frustratingly slow
To sit and watch this sprawling garden grow
Such care will keep the strength it finds
And I will thank you all for the good times
Remembering all of the goof times
I will thank you all for the good times
Say what it is that’s in your mind
And I can try over time
To bring it out of the ground
To make it real this thing you found
Say what it is that’s in your mind
And I can try over time
To bring it out of the ground
To make it real and make you proud

Harbor

Heavy fog obscures the light
Rows of house left behind
Water seeps up through the ground
Trembling hands stifle the sound
And all the clocks speed up
While all my thoughts slow down
Huddled close and wrapped up tight
All our secrets bathed in light
And all the clocks speed up
While all my thoughts slow down
All the clocks speed up
While all my thoughts slow down
And everyone I love
All their fears add up
All their plans burn down
All with no one around
