Follow Me Home

If you’ve been painting a picture
With the lights outside your window
But the oils still run
And time moves all but slow
If you’ve been aching for an exodus
That final burden’s escape
Then shut those cutting blinds
And untie the drapes
Oh, follow me home
Oh, follow me home
Taking steps between the days
Penning letters to those that died
Time and again, fold up your works
Accept your fate in stride
And know we all possess fear
Of what lies out of sight
Just don’t forget that there’s
A tunnel at the end of the light
Oh, follow me home
Oh, follow me home
Dear light outside
Share this song with me
Say hello on the brighter side

Stained Glass

Sinewed heartstrings
Firm on the handle
Of an axe that longs to swallow
What surrounds this vacant panel
Can you feel the pane of broken glass
Can you see through the years
Of age and weather and cast away stones
that pierce my darkest fears
And you say it’s not ok
Life sweeps you up and you can’t stay
Once all your friends are gone
Are you supposed to stay away
In the morning light
Feeling overshadows reason
Eclipsing my state of mind
The sun split in two
By the window frame
All we love we leave behind
Peering out this aching structure
Perched atop my clay throne
With the smoke from my breaths
Exits everything i’ve known
There has to be a method
A way to fracture wounds
When you’re breaking the broken
Won't the shards fall back in tune
And you say it’s not ok
Life sweeps you up and you can’t stay
Once all your friends are gone
Are you supposed to stay away
In the fading light
Feeling overshadows reason
Eclipsing my state of mind
Setting sun won’t return
The heavens bathed in flame
All we love we leave behind
i want to see the window shatter
i want that peace of mind
See that window shatter?
i want that peace of mind.

Grin

i could wonder through the darkness
Rewrite every law I’ve penned
But it won’t bring you closer
Our erase our untimely end
You’ve beauty
So brutal
i sensed it in your smile
Keep showing
Your grin
It’s all i
Can recall now
We breathed secrets, truths
Solemn swears of trust
But the churning framework of my heart
Met with blood
Succumbed to rust
The suffocating taste of bourbon on my lips
The deep set of winter etched into my bones
Like cold heavy breaths, the chill of dead nights
You linger on me, yet i feel so alone
But if there’s any meaning left in this forgotten alphabet
It dissipates in time with the smoke that leaves your lips
So crawl under my skin, sleep here for the season
These tremors rack my body while I try to forget that
Nervous glances echo silence, no intentions of tomorrow
And there’s a skip on the record at the mention of your name
Although i am alone and without a god to pray to
The most beautiful must come from pain

Clutching Chords
04:40

If you’ve felt a blood rush cleanse
Tell me how heartbreak mends
Cause the hinges on my window
Are thrust open again
Each day is the same
These chords i've got to claim
i set fire to the house
But my diary's in the flame
i’m clutching these chords
Hoping they reach you
Is your love measured by measures
Is it over when the song is through
Blood pulses to a different beat
i’m haunted with proof
But in staring at this sooted wreckage
And the antiques of my youth
i still play for you
i’m clutching these chords
Hoping they reach you
Is your love measured by measures
Is it over when the song is through
This place was a mentor
It’s turned into gold
You’ve turned into gold
