Track Name: Smooth Glass Shoes
smooth glass shoes

i don't think i want to know
what caused your heart to break
you're a chalk mark in the arctic snow
statistic category of fate

address unknown
lights on nobody home
then there is the ten thousand things
and all the mysteries that they bring

sure, we've done some things the same
got closets full of ghosts we blame
we both could sit and sing the blues
i'll slip my toes into some smooth glass shoes
point my finger at the old gurus
or the wreckage of the dating game
i'll skip the consolation sigh
the sad and empty look in the corner of your eye

sure, we've done some things the same
i'll be moving on now
didn't stake no claim
thanks just the same, but
i'll be moving on now
Track Name: Suicide Wave
suicide wave

i feel like i know you
from another lifetime
who knows if we will meet
how can anyone tell
when they will open their heart
we keep so still
we fear the steep, steep hill
and sit at your feet
waiting, hoping
for a kill


how cold i feel in this heat
fire burns my mouth
from each heart beat
how is your voice so loud
in my head while i sleep

Track Name: Zettel Bird
Zettel Bird

Healing is an h word
Feeling is an f word
I hit the ceiling like a blind bird
Then the floor came crashing up
I really tried to be good this time
I had no idea from watching the cartoons
What it was like for the coyote
When it was so quiet
Before he hit the ground
And made that little puff of smoke

I lost my inhibitions
When i was falling
The wind blew up my dress
I never found fame or fortune
Just infamy and epiphany
After epiphany after epiphany
So many that i called my cat that
Epiphany, after epiphany.

I really believe inside
I am as big as an ocean
And i can fit nicely into
The sound that little birds make.

Ya falling is an f word
And feeling fires up every word
And I gotta go and slip inside
Here comes that little zettel bird.
Track Name: Sugar & The Medicine Man
Sugar & The Medicine Man

We see each other once again,
Carving shadows in the rainy pavement.
It's so easy to slip,
We could just fall.

Come close, hear me breathing.
It doesn't matter, there is no reason.

I want you to

Hear me in the silence
Know it's the truth
Have knowledge of me

Too much intimacy for sentiments
Delicacy is the legacy.
Be beauty,
Like medicine to take in,
And breath out forgiveness.

I turn to leave, but look back anyway.
I knew from the dream.
That you would be gone

We see each other once again
Carving shadows in the rainy pavement
It's so easy to slip,
We could just fall.
Still. Still.
