Letting Go
I've been scratching
For some space
To get my head
On the page
There's only so much
I can fit
Inside my head
Before it splits
I've been scratching
For some space
To get my head
On the page
There's only so much
I can fit
Inside my head
Before it splits
Feel the pressure building up
Gotta get away before I blow
Knock the arrow
Bend the bow
Feather to my face
I'm letting go
I've been Itching
For a place
To get my head
On the page
There's only so much
I can take
Before bending
Before I break
Feel the pressure building up
Gotta get away before I blow
Knock the arrow
Bend the bow
Feather to my face
I'm letting go
I'm letting go
I'm letting go
I'm letting
Go
The Observer
The sun is rising
The snow is falling
The world is waking
I'm just watching
The roots are reaching
The river flowing
My worries fading
Time is slowing
The trail is calling
The birds are feeding
My soul is singing
I'm just breathing
The forests growing
winds is whisp'rin
My heart is swelling
I'm just listening
The Queen of the Ocean
She slips out the backdoor
When no one is watching
Makes her way to the sand
And she's all alone
There for the swimming
Turns her back on the land
The water is cold
Air is salty
As she fights the will of the wake
And she's unaware
That something is lurking
And she's swimming to her grave
Down, down, down will she go
The queen of the ocean
Down to the heart of the sea
She sits on her throne
At the root of the mountain
Her spirit is finally free
She heard a crack
Before pain was searing
Water as crimson as rose
She let out a cry
That was drowned in the current
Her body dragged into the cold
Down, down, down will she go
The queen of the ocean
Down to the heart of the sea
She sits on her throne
At the root of the mountain
Her spirit is finally free
She'll never return
But she's not forgotten
Her shoes still next to the sea
And with them a sound
Of her mourning mother
Crying daughter! Please come back to me!
Down, down, down will she go
The queen of the ocean
Down to the heart of the sea
She sits on her throne
At the root of the mountain
Her spirit is finally free
Can't Back Down
This season's been
One poetic punch in the face
Our souls bending under the weight
When I see your eyes I
Know you feel the same
And life is unrelenting
Always feeling attacked
Always a fight to unpack
But you don't hold the blame
And girl our ships not sinking
We just gotta jettison the weight
All this negative freight
And set our sails
And who am I
Just another jerk off the street
Oh, but I love you complete
And I know we can't
Can't back
Can't back
We can't back down now
We can't back down now
We can't back down now
Please forgive my
Ignorant place in this mess
All of my fight I relent
At least toward you
But when it comes to
All of this weight that we bear
I'll carry more than my share
To make you smile
And know that this season
It will retreat like it came
Until we see through the rain
I know we can't
Can't back
Can't back
We can't back down now
We can't back down now
We can't back down now
We can't back down now
We can't back down now
We can't back down now
We can't back down now
We can't back down now
We can't back down now
We can't back down now
We can't back down now
We can't back down now
Postcard
The sun shines spotty
The stream is calling
Here in Kansas
I put a fire on the stove
And steep my cup of tea
The wet earth walks soft
The cardinals talk
Here in Kansas
I'm settlin' in
Wishing you were here with me
Wishing you were here with me
Wishing you were here with me
Spring sings like a symphony
And I'm just joining in
To all it's got to say
Are you listening?
The sound builds like an avalanche
Busting through the trees
Filling my heart again
And I'm remembering
All I have is memory
All I have is memory
The rain turns loose
Like a drum on the roof
Here in Kansas
I see the fire needs a stoke
And feel your gravity
I do know what I'd do
So that I could hold you
Here in Kansas
The suns shining through
Wishing you were here with me
Wishing you were here with me
Wishing you were here with me
Spring sings like a symphony
And I'm just joining in
To all it's got to say
Are you listening?
The sound builds like an avalanche
Busting through the trees
Filling my heart again
And I'm remembering
All I have is memory
All I have is memory
All I have is memory
I'm wishing you were here with me
Wishing you were here with me
Wishing you were here with me
Goodbye Colorado
A cool breath washing over me like a river
Walking in the shadows cast
By the pines, I raise my eyes and I wonder
I am taking the right path
I won't forget being brought low by your beauty
The quiet power of your form
I've watched the weather dress you up almost daily
Oh the garments that you've worn
My heart breaks to see
When life leads away
From the things you love
Until we meet again
Goodbye Colorado
Goodbye Colorado
Goodbye Colorado
Goodbye Colorado
I'll kiss the window and I'll leave you a letter
Filled with standard pleasantry
The sleepness nights I'll leave behind for the better
The rest will come along with me
My heart breaks to see
When life leads away
From the things you love
Until we meet again
My heart breaks to see
When life leads away
From the things you love
Until we meet again
Goodbye Colorado
Goodbye Colorado
Goodbye Colorado
Goodbye Colorado
