Let it Go 03:25
Where's the line between you and I Can't Believe that feeling in your eyes Looking Back the only compromise Name the mind and make your own disguise Is it Beautiful Is it a slow release Can you leave it there Can you let go with ease See how long you hold your breath inside Edging close to a feeling meant to hide To know that you are the student and the guide The poor the rich, the foolish and the wise Is it Beautiful Is it a slow release Can you leave it there Can you let go with ease

Warm Like the friction in the rain That great change Carries me and my pain There's a valley in your mind A place that's hard to reach Pools of color fractured lines And stars beyond the beach Step in lakes of pearl And leave the sacred ground Spirit take my hand and the weight of the world Break the golden line On the Horizon all the time Voice of light and shape Brings the truth of me and you There's a valley in your mind A place that's hard to reach Pools of color fractured lines And stars beyond the beach

Unmanifested 02:41
I heard you checked in yesterday We're kinda hoping that you'd stay Seems like its time to hope and pray that you can find a better way Let it go I don't know what else to say It can't be known Unmanifested and under the cloak of the world See unfolding complexity Sitting right here nest to me Branches in spring grow naturally However long they're meant to be Let it go I don't know what else to say It can't be known Unmanifested and under the cloak of the world

Tired is the little brother Waiting for his time Oh so far to go Try the truth of another And then we can try mine I heard its buried low They say he is out Of his mind and wandering about A brand new point of view And a love that's deep and true He moves with grace the Pretender Walks the sacred line Not much else to do Who can seem to remember If these memories are mine Might just be Passing through They say he is out Of his mind and wandering about A brand new point of view And a love that's deep and true Thoughts flow into each other And leave no trace behind Every moment new Don't separate from the other Seeing only time There's no me or you They say he is out Of his mind and wandering about A brand new point of view And a love that's deep and true
5.
I was lost till I found my way I was lost till I found my way And took my moment almost every day Learned to listen when you say to me Gentle now, just be Half of a whole Knowing no surrender It's getting old Playing the pretender on my own I was lost till I found my way And took my moment almost every day Learned to listen when you say to me Gentle now, just be Thoughts of mine Never stop to wonder On peace of mind That falls away from under all I know
6.
Friend Lost at sea Tell me what Do you see A sweeter vision Comes to me The gentle mother Wants to be Breathe it in thinking Oh why oh why Let it begin sinking Oh why oh why Today I feel free But I don't know what that means The air tastes like Water to me The sweetest peace is yet to be Breathe it in thinking Oh why oh why Let it begin sinking Oh why oh why
7.
Sweetly 03:53
You spin so sweetly to me A tale that its all meant to be Hold me down hold me down Plug my ears so I can't hear the sound Happy Just to sway in the wind Can we Let the healing begin I see that shape on the wall Its real I swear on it all Hold me down hold me down Shut my eyes so I won't look around Happy Just to sway in the wind Can we Let the healing begin A light through a crack in the door A bloodstain dry on the floor Hold me down hold me down Close my mouth so I won't taste the ground Green wind twisting my limbs A goddess a prayer and a hymn Hold me down Hold me down Light rising we'll have a crown Happy Just to sway in the wind Can we Let the healing begin
8.
Signs 02:51
I tried to see the signs you left me so long ago I got pretty forget then I forgot where to go Its a wonder that I've made it this far Tried to see the signs you left me so long ago I got pretty close but I could not let it go Moving closer my moment beside me Tried to see the signs you left me so long ago Or I could go the way I think I already know Now eternal is always is always
9.
Take both my arms pacify me Safe, free form harm, take them lightly When I look for my mind I can't find it When I look for my mind I can't find it Time wandering by to say hello again We were high, don't know why, can't remember when When I look for my mind I can't find it When I look for my mind I can't find it
