STAINED GLASS FAME
love is no joke, you also
we’ve been given, some control
yet we still stray from the fold
and yes, we ought to know
it’s not where goodness grows
from the overflow, of the heart
speaks the mouth, it’s who we are
‘cause loves the only one
who can save us from his other name
not the one of stained glass fame
you didn’t think it possible
for love to make a frown
most think it’s probable
for love to turn them down
yes love gets angry
but love gets sad
love’s the dove
and the flood
love’s the sword
love’s the sword
love’s the sword
love’s the sword
love’s the sword

EASY COME
you showed me your cards so early
by saying yes to a question I hadn’t asked
but should we have anything to hide?
no I just want to be important in your eyes
‘cause everybody is
a sucker for something
someone’s underneath my skin
pulling me back with them
there it is that one thing I want
my own personal little god
I seem to lose control when I’m around you
as if I ever had control
it’s the greatest or the worst
your blessing or your curse
yeah everybody is
a sucker for something
someone’s underneath my skin
pulling me back with them

FORMULOVE
oh, the ebb and flow,feelings come, feelings go
girl you and I ought to know
when the tide touches your feet
when you are drowning in the deep
it’s formulove, formulove, formulove, formulove
let’s not make this something we’ll regret
loosing good things over vows not said
we’re together but we’re not one
things loosely knit it will come undone
I want you and I to last, slow down girl not so fast
I want you and I to last, slow down girl not so fast
yes the hand is strong but hearts are weak
o the body wants what we ought not seek
it’s formulove, formulove, formulove, formulove
I want you and I to last, slow down girl not so fast
I want you and I to last, slow down girl not so fast
I want you and I to last, slow down girl not so fast
I want you and I to last, slow down girl not so fast

ROUTINE MISTAKES
despite routine mistakes
I’m with you most of the way
neither hot nor cold
forgettable when both
everything we need is supplied
but negligence with us is implied
the good times are not
worth the trouble the we’ve got
dying is a thing we do
but living asks us to die for the truth
you and I got choices
beware your own head and its voices
and we the young
we are a fire
and we're made to burn
hot and higher
but will we provide
warmth and light
or will we burn down everything in sight

GIRLCAKE “ADULT PARTY CHORDS”
we could be happy
the smallest touch means so much
and she just wants to be touched
o it’s so hard not to eat her up
yes I'd like you alone
but love the thought of losing all control
so I’m gonna wait
I’ve got to stop making these kid mistakes
you only know what you’ve seen
so you know nothing about me
top marks though for bravery
I got your number in my sleep
I’m wondering where you are at
hoping it’s not just in my past
is wanting you enough reason to take you?
I don’t have a place for you girl
just a day job and dreams to conquer the world
I don’t have a place for you girl
just a day job and dreams to conquer the world
but the world cannot compare
to just the way you let down your hair
no the world it does not compare
what it does to me just to know you're waiting there

Where Is All The Stuff

WHERE IS ALL THE STUFF
where is all the stuff
made up of words and ideas
from dirt to flesh back to dust
living breathing concepts that can love
that means us
we’re not just things
no but human beings
that entails much
it’s getting smaller microscopic
getting bigger monolithic
fathers sons, mothers daughters
all judgment’s debtors but found in love
and not by luck no but by the same
judgment’s other name
well ask the potter
wide and open seas
beautiful and terrifying
simple yet so involved
created and not evolved
who but God can grant
the ape the time
o the time to write half as well as you or i
much less Shakespeare

A Hill To Die On

A HILL TO DIE ON
theologically speaking
it doesn’t always have to make sense
but for our false clarity’s keeping
let’s just pretend it makes sense
what we’ve touched with our hands
no it’s eternally unfolding
the light distorts the shape of its source
and to stand in light of our ignorance
is to stand far above reproach
yes to burn only for pleasure
is to burn out
yeah we want that flame and glory
but the cost is far to gory
you’ve got to know your motives
when we die on our hill
it could be eternally folding

ONE DREAM
you’re a force for good in me
I only want you permanently
yes I’m a risk but we’ll see if I’m as scary as other things
you’re a force for good in me
you make me ask new questions
like what can be done what can I become?
in this place there’s so much to see and so much for you to do
so it means everything to me to mean anything to you
you wear it so well
this life looks good on you
you make it look so easy
I’m surprised you even see me
don’t walk away I couldn’t take what I put you through
third times the charm and I always hoped that it’d be you
any one dream could cost everything
and I know you dream every night
any one dream will cost all of me
and I only seem to dream of you
in this place there’s so much to see
and so much for you do
so it means everything to me to mean anything to you
I won’t pretend I’m not caught up in just the thought of holding hands
but even more in making you my girl can’t miss my chance to be your man

BEST PART
I hate the cold dark, I feel alone
but here I sit in a broken way
waiting for mother
I’ve got to learn this lesson now
I didn’t want to know how
but I’ll be back next year
cant let defeat keep me here
we cannot change the world
we can only change our minds
we can think that it’s new
but lies appeal to how we want to feel
it’s nice to see
someone stopping for me
I’ve had some time alone in thought
to take account of all I’ve got
I’ll let the rust do its worst
‘cause in the end I can’t be hurt
we cannot change the world
we can only change our minds
we can think that it’s new
but lies appeal to how we want to feel
am I even the best part of a bad thing
pretending it was my idea to breath

TWO MASTERS
should we not be opposed in everything we do?
so watch for the stumbling stones,
they’re the only ones who truly love you
and o to gain the world to be served never serving
emptiness will find you there alone
and we are the place, where wisdom comes to die
so watch for the stumbling stones, they will never tell you a lie
and o to be made low, so as not to fall, so as not to fall so far
freedom, bondage, are only two names for exactly the same thing
and to run from embrace, is only to run to another’s embrace
freedom, bondage, are only two names for exactly the same thing
and to run from embrace, is only to run to another’s embrace, embrace
just because you’re in love, doesn’t mean love is in you
and living for the moment, means giving the moment your life

HOPE IS A HOLE IN THE SKY
we’ve got places to be, things to do you and me
we don’t know what we’ve seen
we don’t know where we’re going to be
when we grow up
baptisms one of these, did it change you or me
and if he waits in the water
let me not waste another day, bury me now
there’s a hole in the sky, there’s a hole in his side
and in his last breath of life
tore a hole in the sky
we’ve got places to be, things to do you and me
we don’t know what we’ve seen
we don’t know where we’re going to be
when we grow old
there’s a hole in the sky, there’s a hole in his side
and in his last breath of life
tore a hole in the sky
yes and can we miss that which
was made to be lost
down this hole, hole, down this hole in the sky
