gravel lines

what do you expect from me?
after these takes
after this
what do you dream in the afternoon?
i'll never know
what's in your head

out past the cars on the railways
out past the city's finery
we see our breath and connection
underneath these gravel lines

you, you stole a page from the blanks
how do you weigh all of our fears?
typical, isn't it typical
for someone like me to invite you in

we took a drive in the country
your photographs were never mine
slapped in the face by the questions
posed by gravel lines

God'sgreat love

Praise the Lord, O my soul;
all my inmost being, praise His holy name.
Praise the Lord, O my soul,
and forget not all His benefits -
who forgives all your sings
and heals all your diseases,
who redeems your life from the pit
and crowns you with love and compassion,
who satisfies your desires with good things
so that your youth is renewed like the eagle's.

The Lord is compassionate and gracious,
slow to anger, abounding in love....


psalm 103:1-5,8

autumn

you make me dizzy

Respectfully, some honesty I'm asking now
Do you hear the conversation we talk about?
I'll back away to the safety of a quiet house
If there's half a chance in this moment
When your eyes meet mine, we show it.

Oh, oh take it all back, take your first, your last, your only.
Oh, oh take it all back, take it all back,
Everything you showed me.
Oh, oh, this must be how it feels when the feelings goes

jimmy eat world, you've done it again

lonesome

Are you lonesome tonight,
Do you miss me tonight?
Are you sorry we drifted apart?
Does your memory stray to a brighter sunny day
When I kissed you and called you sweetheart?
Do the chairs in your parlor seem empty and bare?
Do you gaze at your doorstep and picture me there?
Is your heart filled with pain, shall I come back again?
Tell me dear, are you lonesome tonight?
