London (free) 04:25
A coded message in painted art A busy design is music for my heart I play the piano to keep me sane It’s better than anything I majored in My parents paid my way through school I still don’t know what I want to do I follow my heart but I still need money I play my guitar cause I hate being so poor Believe it not sometimes I want to quit But going back to school feels just like giving in Five years from now where will I be I don’t know and that’s the only thing I believe in Well sooner or later I’ll be across the sea A mountain alp mentality Sooner or later I’ll be in Bern A heart fix fever for which I yearn It’s the only place I know Upon this earth that goes around If you hold me baby you can see Off at once for London’s scene I moved away out to the west I keep on moving or I’ll end up where I left A year goes by and I’ve moved twice If I don’t write songs a little part of me dies You can’t go back and relive your life If you focus on goals what happens when they’re realized You can’t go back to times and places Once you’re gone they replace all the faces

Ohio 2 (free) 02:51
Coax a song out of nothing If you want to end with something If you’re leaving, where you going, can I come? If your body can’t recover put your coke up in the cupboard Just another plan you’ve already shot down Don’t be late, call the doctor We’ve already dealt with all the Hate and fear and pain and love and sweat and blood and tears and age and death So don’t count me out No don’t count me out Well here we go one more time I want to kiss you in the snow Where all the colors in the world will be so bright So leave me if you wanna But I know you’re never gonna Cause you want a fairy tale in your life There is love all around in my parents’ parents’ home So before it’s too late please go there with me There is love in the places where you’ll find my family’s faces Back home in Ohio Ohio

Lonely Road (free) 02:34
It’s just a lonely road It’s just a lonely road Oh, it’s just a lonely road Don’t get too close to me I’m not gonna set you free Forget your best laid plans That’s all I am Sit down and plan your life I’m gonna kiss both of your eyes Could this be any more less true Are you? Are you? You’ve got ability A catatonic esp I’ve got ideas that could lead us through Give up and don’t look back You can’t dwell upon the past It’s time to square your shoulders man It’s just a lonely road It’s just a lonely road

Ophelia (free) 04:00
You are my Ophelia Impressive in stone You burn with a passion Yet I can’t leave you alone You question my motives Your skepticism’s cool I’ll forgive all your questions Cause I know what you’ve been through You are my Ophelia Enraged by what you see I knew I’d always love you When your lips first brushed my cheek Suppress the hidden anger Obsess all over those Who occupy your feelings And who possess all you know You are my Ophelia

Centum Cellas (free) 03:31
Girls are the only thing that I can’t live without Girls are the pieces of the puzzles that I dropped I can’t complete the border and my hair is coming out Piled up beside me like brown haystacks in the Fall Brown haystacks in the Fall Been looking for days for weeks and months and years at least Everywhere I went I looked for my whole life back East I can’t control the future and I know my past is past Cut in stone and overgrown with unknown desert plants With unknown desert plants I learned that art is life but fear’s superior to both And so I try to write though my heart feels like a ghost You’d think I’d have it right by now you’d think I’d have a clue A girl a song they’re both the same so I love both of you So I love both of you Yeah yeah

Black Widow Falls (free) 03:56
Black widow falls in my life today I don’t know where I’m going but I think I’ll be ok Black widow falls on my shoulder now I’ll hold on to your memory, I’ll hold on somehow Black widow falls and looks you in the eye You’ve known about this moment but you still can’t bear to try Black widow falls in my life today Hold me close and don’t let go cause you’re what keeps me sane Don’t you know that’s as far as you go Black widow falls far too close for now Soon you’ll be a part of me, I’ll carry you around Black widow falls right in front of my face I’ll keep right on moving yeah you can’t keep me away Black widow falls and bites you on your arm Feel the pressure building as your blood pumps through your heart Black widow falls that red and black mean death So hold on to your family like holding a deep breath Don’t you know that’s as far as you go
