Falter

as i fall out of the dark
and i fall into the park
did I see you today?
did I see you today?
if I show you my heart
if I show you what I got
is it safe enough?
what is safe enough?
every time i falter
I gotta take you off the altar
gotta change up the altar
I’m giving back all I’ve stolen
hey we’re golden
and as I run to the river
and I kneel and I shiver
breathe in breathe out
breathe in breathe out
and as I go to the wise
saying how do I know?
they say time just time
time give it time
and every time I falter
I gotta take you off the altar
gotta change up the altar
I’m giving back all I’ve stolen
hey we’re golden
as we fall into the street
waiting to agree
waiting for relief
waiting for relief
and every time I falter
I gotta take you off the altar
gotta change up the altar
I’m giving back all I’ve stolen
hey we’re golden
I’m giving back all I’ve stolen
letting go of what I’m holding

Save it babe, I don’t wanna know
how it goes
Maybe darlin’, it ain’t happening
we’re still gold
Still gold in the islands
Out alone in the islands
In the waves in the islands
A thousand birds come out of the branches
I walk under
And all those words
that came right out of you
It makes me wonder
But I don’t wanna use
I don’t wanna use your love anymore
I don’t wanna use a world I’m waiting for
OK, i give up, you can tell me
about the ending
Take this what if, these if only’s
I’ve been defending
I’ve been defending
I’ve been defending a world I’m waiting for
no more defending your love anymore
‘cause I don’t wanna use
I don’t wanna use your love anymore
I don’t wanna use a world I’m waiting for

sunlight on pages
sunlight through the pain
and though we're found in cages
we’ll be free again
wish I could have stayed a little longer
but I was out of time
you know I couldn’t have been fonder
but maybe that’s just a line
didn’t think I’d be leaving, I thought it’d be you
but in that night you were sleeping, I lay awake and knew
of all the things I was fearing, this one's come true
but I’m still walking still working
I still look into eyes
still failing, still learning
still swimming in the highs
didn’t think I’d be saying this is enough
didn’t know I could be this kind of tough
didn’t know what I needed was a different love
sunlight on pages
sunlight through the pain
though we're found in cages
we’ll be free again

Holy Road to Nowhere

Roll over, roll over me
Like the white sea, roll over me
No losing, no winning
You and me, we’re just giving
Just giving
We handle the days alright
You got your angels and I got mine
It’s been all the seasons, all the seasons
It’s getting dark a little later again
Later again
Did you get it baby?
Did you make it baby?
Did you get out baby?
Did you make it out?
I’m going back to those islands where I’m with you
With the clear blue all around you
Going back to the islands where we tried it out
'It’s only me,' I said, 'you can let it out, let it out'
You said, 'it’s hard for me'
I’m going down to the river, I’m going down to the trees
I’m going down to wherever I can find me
We know all of the reasons, all of the reasons
We ran out of ways to be free
So did you get it baby?
Did you make it baby?
Did you get out baby?
Did you make it out?
We won’t fall apart again love
We’re on the holy road to nowhere
We’re on the holy road to nowhere
We won’t fall apart, we won’t fall apart
