Library Magic

(album: Signs Of Light - 2016)

I'm drawn to that sorta library magic
Whispering through the dusty aisles
Watching all the thinkers read
Trying to keep a grown mans quiet's like
Pulling teeth on a winter's eve
Cracks and pulls and unfamiliar roads
I'm on this one to find out
Veggie gas and brothers harass
Can't stay healthy in a cloud of eyes
Listening to my every move
Just trying to survive
This self-imposed adventure
That selfishness drives
I can barely keep my head above the blue
Trying to keep it off me and you

But I can see the sunshine's rays
Gleaming through the clear water
Telling me you gotta hop in for this chapter's ride
There will always be better days
There will always be better days

Making music is what we do
Trying to weave the patterns for me and you
Trying to make the grasses breathe and a grown man cry
Truth and life is where I gleam
Tangled up in a funnel's wind
Trying to come out walking
Understand it's beyond me talking
Trying to come out walking
Understand it's beyond me talking

I can see the sunshine's rays
Gleaming through the clear waters
Telling me you gotta hop in for this chapter's ride
There will always be better days
There will always be better days

Being alone isn't lonely
It's sought after like a holiday
Being home is my vacation
Postcard dreams of a full-sized bed

Quit the band one too many times
Serious enough to get a rise
But he'll hop in the next morning for another drive
That's a promise
The best advice we ever received is for you and me to stay together
It's easy to begin and hard to end
I'm just glad to go through it all with you as friends

I can see the sunshine's rays
Gleaming through the clear waters
Telling me you gotta hop in for this chapter's ride
There will always be better days
There will always be better days
There will always be better days
