Before You

I feel my heart beating faster
When I’m next to you nothing else matters
But I know this all ends in disaster
I know the air gets thinner further up the ladder
Like they lost my luggage
now I’m wearing someone else’s clothes
Like my shirt’s on backwards
and the seams are all exposed
You’ve got me all kinds of inside out
I can’t remember who I was
Before you
Try to keep you at a distance
Channel all my fears into resistance
But no matter what the instance
I just can't shake our coexistence
Like they tossed my bedroom
like the flipped my dresser drawers
I know it’s mine
But I don’t recognize it any more
You’ve got me all kinds of inside out
I can’t remember who I was
Before you
You’ve got me all kinds of inside out
I can’t remember who I was
Before you

Past Present

We’re stuck in the in between
Not quite the past or present
The present here is frozen in time
And it’s easy to forget the future
There’s no place for me here
I’m just the past to you now
There was never a future for me
In your universe anyhow
It’s easy to fall into the past
We’re all just creatures of comfort
But you can’t see me for who I am
When you know me as someone else
There’s no place for me here
I’m just the past to you now
There was never a future for me
In your universe anyhow
There’s no place for me here
I’m just the past to you now
There was never a future for me
In your universe anyhow
We're stuck in the in between
Not quite the past or present
We’re just different galaxies
And my heart has found the future
There’s no place for me here
I’m just the past to you now
There was never a future for me
In your universe anyhow

Second With You

Hello again
To my favorite distraction
Hours go by in the blink of an eye and I’m frozen
Like a heavy medication
Elevating then fading away
There’s nothing else or afterwards til after
Now filling empty hours becomes routine
Til I can slip away and shut the world out long enough
for a second with you
When I’m with you
I see new colors
Brighter and purer than anything I’ve
Ever seen before
In hues intensifying
Saturating then fading away
There’s nothing else or afterwards til after
Now filling empty hours becomes routine
Til I can slip away and shut the world out long enough
for a second with you
For a second with you
For a second with you
For a second with you
For a second with you
There’s nothing else or afterwards til after
Now filling empty hours becomes routine
Til I can slip away and shut the world out long enough
for a second with you
There’s nothing else or afterwards til after
Now filling empty hours becomes routine
Til I can slip away and shut the world out long enough
for a second with you

White Noise

Saw the future from the mountainside
The promise of forever in your eyes
But now I’m at the center of it all
But these walls won’t let me break their hold
When I wake up it’s all just white noise
And I miss you more than you will ever know
As I’m staring out the window
Watching these dreams dissipate
Maybe in another time another place
Things would have been so different
If we didn’t tempt fate
Never thought I’d miss these busy streets
The way the light shined on simple things
Now it’s all gone dark on these dreams
And I miss you more than you will ever know
As I’m staring out the window
Watching these dreams dissipate
Maybe in another time another place
Things would have been so different
If we didn’t tempt fate
And now there’s no path back to the shadow of these dreams
And now there’s no path back to the shadow of these dreams
And now there’s no path back to the shadow of these dreams
And now there’s no path back to the shadow of these dreams
And I miss you more than you will ever know
As I’m staring out the window
Watching these dreams dissipate
Maybe in another time another place
Things would have been so different
If we didn’t tempt fate
And I miss you more than you will ever know
As I’m staring out the window
Watching these dreams dissipate
Maybe in another time another place
Things would have been so different
If we didn’t tempt fate
