Endings 03:23
Books on their shelves in small rooms Dining sets on tables waiting for you On the outside we're all looking in Waiting for all our endings to begin Woolen heavy blankets of our days Hanging on the bedpost, but here we lay Like mountains we will vanish to the winds Waiting for all our endings to begin Westerners will vanish into code Sending in their wrestled, vanquished souls Buildings on the outside falling in Waiting for all their endings to begin Wrinkled letters thrown across the floor Will you notice when i walk through the door? Wearing winter jackets on our hopes Wishing we had chains, but only ropes Fraying from the daggers of our sins Waiting for all our endings to begin

Comfortable 04:27
We wait around We talk about Things no one cares about Places been Things we said Ain't got nothing but ourselves Go your miles Endless aisles Built with nothing but your mind Figure out Pull it down Shade on those shallow eyes Take one more look, settle down Peace and quiet now Tell me how you can be so at ease with everything Sleep it off Dreams are lost From the records of the times Say again What you meant Getting lost behind the blinds Take one more look, settle down Peace and quiet now Tell me how you can be so at ease with everything

We grew up in the plains As children playing our games But as we grew, we grew away And roots dig deep a different way The morning follows nigh All those times I sat on by And watched across the room I only ever saw you When will you see you're the only one I see? I dream of future plans Our houses and our homes Going everywhere we please Crossing over, climbing trees We're free, we're home, we're gone And we've only just begun

Man Made 03:38
The people sigh and mumble They aren't wanting no more trouble From those who say they've worked for what they've got With a little more resistance And an inkling of persistence They could show there's no reaping what they've wrought But who's to say Who's to say what makes a man? So let's start and finish what we began From the halls on Montezuma To the shores of Tripoli We will fight our countries battles keeping people from being free Here they come Fighting wars on dignity Looking over many shoulder Peaking down your sweater's neck Better pray for all your brothers in heaven and in heck Lest you find you've met their same damned fate But who's to say Who's to say what makes a man? So let's start and finish what we began

Slow 05:16
With all the things this place has seen Even the ones you forget I built a home where wild grows And trees surround its face With letters wrote for a time But nothing ever said In silence born a creek so wide A river in our minds And as we go we'll say hello To the birds we've never seen And soon we'll be alone but free A lost, forgotten tree Even though the sun goes down You'll still lie sleeping below But as you rise, so too it rises On that bank so slow And as we go we'll say hello To the birds we've never seen And soon we'll be alone but free A lost, forgotten tree
