So Long

It's been so long, a record
How was I to know?
Courage filled you up and I just fold
Could it be - it was better?
Undeniably so
Would you really trade the weather for half this home?
If I only knew the right way to be wrong
If I could only do it right when I'll be gone
It's been so long, for the record
I waited even though
They say our timing's off, and you laugh, and I don't
Counted all of the efforts
And I played 'em like a joke
"Would you really wait forever?" you ask, and I choke
If I only knew the right way to be wrong
If I could only do it right when I'll be gone
It's been so long, a record
How was I to know?

Habits
04:28

Did I try enough?
And what if I could be so happy now?
Isn't that love -
Just someone who could break your habits,
How close am I to truth?
I mean the meaning we both wanted to use
A fiction we could choose
Isn't that enough -
What if I could be so happy now?
Isn't that enough
You drew pictures on your breath
That radiate through autumn's wake
Allow your quaintest fear of death
Success if something I can't have anyhow
Consider for awhile
What it meant to keep on acting, smile
Illiterate and wild
Isn't that enough -
What if I could be so happy now?
Isn't that enough
Isn't that enough -
What if I could be so happy now?
Isn't that enough
What if I could?
Isn't that love?

Some Kind of Joke
03:19
|
|||
|
I took a second there
I was laughing, maybe unaware
Of what I owed you or I couldn't care less
I was laughing at you
I need an audience
Does the meaning really stick to us?
To taste the soil, even receptionless
You were laughing too
I don't want to be liar, so I won't
Pulled by an even higher kind of joke
Spoke with a feeling of pride and this isn't how I woke
You don't want to be surprised when I go

Isn't That Love
03:24
|
|||
|
Everything has history
But nothing here is sacred
Life can be so pretty
If you're willing to change it
Something tells me that I'll love it still,
Whatever we may find
But that probably means I'll hurt you 'til
Our revery's unkind
Isn't that love?
Isn't that enough?

Lightning
02:29
|
|||
|
Comb my memory, recoil
Til I find where all the meaning is sorted
Lo-fi revery joy
You remind me of someone I know
Oh, we're lightning
Don't incite me
Tried everything
Hold the line, reload
Complicate and resigned,
We're aligned in a traveling home
Constellation of pride
Hangs high with the unraveling hope
Oh, we're lightning
Don't incite me
Tried everything
Hold the line, reload

Sleepless on the couch
Of a past and future house
Streets still humming loud
Trying hard to figure shit out
And all this time wine drinking alone
With love in mind, heart bigger, better home
I lie inevitably,
Relying on a changing memory
All this history
But none of it is sacred to me
Sober mind, tread softly through the door
I trace you by your clothes across the floor
Everyone I know is looking for the same thing
And all this time trying bitter and alone
With love in mind, heart bigger, better home

Plastic Stars
02:18
|
|||
|
Another night of endless sitting
Listening to television
Counting all the places I have been
Probably isn't much
I've been everything to everybody
Always wondered the extent of loving
And selfishly tried feeling something
Not sure exactly what
Plastic stars on the ceiling
You're far away, I'm in love
Gin, distance, Lucinda Williams
And my longtime lover still is missing
My home's a place we still don't fit in
Not by choice
Can I still write while sleeping under
The weight of someone else's wonder?
And it contradicts like April thunder
And compliments my voice
Plastic stars on the ceiling
You're far away, I'm in love

At Least We Tried
05:11
|
|||
|
Broken down, laugh again
At least we tried
You spent the afternoon
Getting it right
It's hard making sense of it
But you're doing better than I might
Under the breast of a curious love
Fuck all the new friends I've made enough
Sam's in Chicago
And you're not far from the bay
Please shoot out the lights
And tease me with everything wild
My mind was acerbically spinning off track
Preempting the questions I knew you'd ask
I hear Philly is nice if you've been
Maybe we could try the midwest again
Please shoot out the lights
And tease me with everything wild
Broken down, laugh again
Talk littered with "I understand, but..."
Soft-spoken accident
Bitter, in need of a hand
It's hard not knowing where to land

Taste the Same
02:31
|
|||
|
Taste the same in the hall
You bought a new coat in time for fall
It's not the right season
What is that you're concealing?
I dip my head in the void
And surface later, you're annoyed
At my ridiculous world
A banner hanging and unfurled
What if we have a girl?
Say nothing at all
Something I say too much and
What does it mean?
What does it mean?
Histrionic apart
Ashamed of strangeness and the art
Permanent on your shoulder
If this is us getting older -
Can we finally start?

Away Together
02:43
|

I'd love to love to love a little better
It was pissing rain, I wait for other weather
We go outside
How often we hide
Away together
I can tell you're not so easily forgotten
The sky was bruised maroon, you leak the dawn in
We stay indoors
Rearrange on the floor
Every so often
Ten second dream
In the warmth we accrue
One eye was green and the other blue
Lie down in the light
How strange it is to see
These will be our memories eventually
Despite what I say
I want to know
If quiet is lack, or belief, and how easy I go
I'd love to love to love a little better
Do you miss your name or taste the hunger ever?
We go outside
How often we hide
Away together

Her voice, the vulnerability within, and a glorious sound, not overproduced but natural. 'Tender Heart' gets me - resonates in a way that is sad and glorious simultaneously. Discordant guitars behind a clean acoustic and voice ballad. Love her voice, her lyrics. Great album.
