though time passes by
the wind ages us alive
but it's not waiting for us
so we can take our time
in the much broader sense
the clock just keeps us in check
but that doesn't mean
it's always right
and the pages turn
the friendship seems to grow
finding peace in all the processes
we know
keeping logs of every line
let's take it slow
can we make each memory close
well i think so
in time we find something
that piece of us that brings
that little breeze of spring
that little tied shoestring
in the much broader sense
the clock just keeps us in check
but that doesn't mean
it's always right
and the pages turn
the friendship seems to grow
finding peace in all the processes
we know
keeping logs of every line
let's take it slow
can we make each memory close
well i think so
so the story begins
and even time commends
you for your patience but
we know how this will end
the page is turning on a brand new day

it seems you're new here in town
take a breath, put your bags down
why are you staring at my house
oh it seems dangerous, but no need to frown
it just feels wacky
to see this odd sight, so crafty
your house is held up
by a single red thread
yes i noticed
why not be calm instead?
what if it loosens at its grip
well we can start over
a brand new trip
why do you care this much about it
it's how i stay afloat, it's foolproof, don't doubt it
oh it just seems crazy
trusting something so empty
but i think i understand
you hope for much more
but you're still glad you stand

toadstool traders

fungal little creatures
in the little sidewalk crack
stealing trinkets from the windowsill
and hiding them from my back
i don't need them anyway
i never needed them anyway
curious little creatures
hiding buttons in the stone
finding peace with all their objects
finding hope that's in their home
i don't need them anyway
i never needed them anyway

i'm up on stage i don't know what to say
'cause sometimes i think
over and over again
i don't know what to say

busy beetle

he seems to carry a briefcase
and a big ol cup of joe
standing outside of his cottage
where he often stays alone
oh he seemed pressed
oh he seemed stressed
so i asked him what the problem was
i needed to figure it out
i'm just a little speck in this big wide open expanse
i just want to make a difference, i am trying my best to keep my stance
i
i'm just a busy beetle through and through
just leave me
i don't want to bother you
he was acting awfully stubborn
so i thought that he was fine
but the bags under his little eyes
told me he want to whine
oh he seemed pressed
oh he seemed stressed
so i listened to what the problem was
i needed to figure it out
he said
well, i thought there would be a lot more peace within my dreams
but my constant stress and working always seems to get the best of me
i
i'm just a busy beetle through and through
just leave me
i don't want to bother you
oh i knew that he was worth it
so i walked up one last time
stuck my hand out
to help him begin his climb
he took it with a big ol open hand
and he said
oh i thought that there was no one who'd care enough to help
because deep down i worried i overworked so i couldn't even give time to myself
and i
i'm still a busy beetle through and through
i
but i know that i can try to make
each day slow down
just a little bit
i know i can
i'll make it up to you

marigold

as the eyes turn to stone
hope for more than waking up
just because you needed escape
as the day begins to close
watch the people gather
all is done
it's calm
hooray
and even in the silence
the village is no longer brittle
no cracker-thin communion
just tiny little giggles
they take their time
open wide
see the memories in their eyes
oh i sure do too
as the sun collapses too
hope for than staying up
just know that i'll be here always
as the soul begins to glow
i see your light is growing
something new has changed
today
because even with the sadness
your smile is becoming brighter
no cracker-thin communion
you're holding on much tighter
you take your time
open wide
see the memory
in your eyes
i sure do too

compost
03:03

|

and all the pages turn to
the end of this tale
it's scribbles are wilted
it's parchment turns stale
it seems that your will is crumbling
your color has grown pale
what does it mean to live so true
composing, turning frail
but
oh, there's more you can see
oh, i know what will you set free
smaller-scale or not
the bigger picture is ripped apart
with fiery determination,
we saw from the start
to doubts and confirmation
that would pierce through your heart
but what does that you
my twinkling star
oh, who do you want to be
oh, take flight, go forth, be free
rest is improvised from feeling <3
