No surprise, out searching for a kinder tide
Just tell me where the good ones hide
They’re all in love with normal guys
Alleyways, check out the Willie Nelson braids
And there’s the oroborous snake,
He’s gone to waste choking on his tail
Oh, now here I go
turn around and head in through the door
No, can’t be sure, think I’ve seen that face before
and then out of the blue
she looks at me like I am someone new
I think for once this could be different
Underneath the weather from the fog machine
she wound up sitting next to me
Her eyes were like a magazine
Asked what she’s on
We talked about our favorite songs
When Lauryn Hill “Doo Wop” came on
I tried to dance but all my moves went wrong
Oh boy, feel it go
What’s that sound, who’s headed through the door?
No, can’t be sure, think I’ve seen his face before
and then out of the blue
she looks around the room for someone new
I thought for once that this would be different
Oh what does she know?
Stood right up and and headed through the door
Can’t take no more, I’ve seen that face a hundred times before
Into the blue
I looked inside and there was nothing new
I thought by now that this would be different
Oh how does it go?
Flowers first, a note outside the door?
No, can’t be sure, guess I made mistakes before
But then out of the blue
I’ll see the world like I am someone new
and think for once maybe it’s different

Rest of My Life

I thought about the empire state
but the time was never right
and though i wrote and told her not to wait
i always hoped she might
now everyone I know has moved away
and it’s hard to recognize
but I go and visit anyways
hoping that I find the rest of my life
henry had the honest face
of a boy who’d learned to lie
and he kept a ukulele case
filled up with kitchen knives
and he taught me that the things we want
are all just in our mind
and I woke up on the day he’d gone
lucky still to find the rest of my life
angel in the chorus, crying in the kitchen
she was singing for us, but I wasn’t listening
20 years and 4 months into her remission
i may never know what she was really wishing
walking through the forest, found what we was missing
20 years and 4 months into your remission
angel in the chorus, crying out your wishes
now I’m singing for us, momma are you listening?
i’m standing in an endless space
and time is passing by
i’m surrounded by familiar faces
wondering what mine looks like
i could swim around the hao long bay
i could cut across the easy way
i could hike up to come hallowed place
and try to lose my mind
or i could never ever leave this place
i could never ever leave this place
i could never leave and just be asking why
for the rest of my life

Desdemona
i am troubled by the look in your eyes
is there a woman inside
have you found someone who needs you
desdemona
there are feelings that we cannot describe
and words that do not define
what we’re dying to say
will you find a way to finally face
what broke your heart wide open in the first place
the familiar weight that pulls you down
you must be tired of dragging all that pain around
desdemona
always searching for the sunnier side
but when will you see the light that is shining underneath you
desdemona
do you remember when we stayed up all night
and took off every disguise? when you trusted me
we can find a way to help you face
what broke your heart wide open in the first place
you can lie to me or lay it out
you must be tired of dragging all that pain around
when you find a way to finally face
what broke your heart wide open in the first place
you can cry to me, scream and shout
you must be so tired of it so tired
of hiding inside of your pain
my darling desdemona are you ok
i can feel the ache upon your life
you must be tired of living in it

war is over
everyone just take a breath
there’s nothing left to fight
there’s nothing left
i’ve seen the future
and it’s much brighter than the past
honest and polite
no questions asked
oh my god, could it be?
am I living in fantasy?
grab my coat grab my hat
future’s so bright man i’m never looking back
tonight i’m going out to dance
with everyone i love
or anyone who’s left
tonight i’m going out to dance
with everyone i love
or anyone who’s left
war is over
everyone is so depressed
there’s nothing left to write
it’s like they get inside your head
oh do you remember a time
when it was just yours and mine
back when simple smile
could break your heart open wide
oh my love, can’t you see?
we’re all living in a fantasy
grab your gun, grab your hat
future’s so bright man i’m never looking back
tonight i’m going out to dance
with everyone i love
or anyone who’s left
with everyone i love
i’m looking for my friends
where have they gone to?
there’s not a soul to hold onto
