Better Version of Me

I see you standing in the window,
Your paradise unknown
Your vantage point's living in limbo,
Or so the story goes
You know it’s been a long time coming,
Since I’ve seen my horizon grow
So as for me I’ll ride this rhythm to my dying decision,
And let it all go
I got this grounding sensation, it’s fueled with vibration,
This crawling creation ain’t gonna get the best of me
I’d profit from patience because I hate hesitating
So lost or free, I’m bound to be a Better Version of Me
So maybe I’ll make my way to Texas, hell yes
And live a little outside the law
Or stand my ground in California
Where my cards fall tall
You know it’s been a long time coming,
Since I’ve seen my horizon grow
So as for me I’ll ruffle my feathers, as I prep for the weather
Coming out of this storm
I’ve got this grounding sensation, it’s fueled with vibration,
This crawling creation ain’t gonna get the best of me
I’d profit from patience because I hate hesitating
So lost or free, I’m bound to be a Better Version of Me
I ain’t gonna wait by your door,
I ain’t gonna sleep on the floor,
Maybe I’ll make my escape, and go my own damn way
I’ve got this grounding sensation, it’s fueled with vibration,
This crawling creation ain’t gonna get the best of me
I’d profit from patience because I hate hesitating
So lost or free, I’m bound to be a Better Version of Me

I'm Good Now

Do you remember, what I told you that December?
I said, “Lay it all on me”.
But you didn’t hesitate to wait to tell me, Surprise me and expel me
From your jaded heart
You’re breaking me up
And you’re putting me down
And baby I’m Good Now
You’re shaking me up
And you’re throwing me ‘round
And baby I’m good now
You didn’t know just what to do
You left yourself high and cold, in silver and gold and a little blue.
And Girl you know I’m through
With you’re breaking me up
You’re putting me down
And baby I’m Good Now
You’re shaking me up
And you’re throwing me ‘round
And baby I’m good now
People, sweet people, they live and they love and
Some don’t got the time for kissing and hugging
Well I lost my mind when I first saw her coming,
When you make up your mind, I want you to know something,
Baby I’m Good Now

It's All By Design

I stepped into Heaven on Friday
And I saw Elvis Presley holding a child
And he said son please make this baby stop crying for I,
Got a hand to play with either side
And there’s an exit in the heart of Texas that’s just restless,
Everyone’s trying to talk the cool town jive
But the irony that displeases me,
When the money man soars, the poor can’t eat,
Guess we’re all just hungry to survive
And that’s all by design
Yeah that’s all by design
I got a tip that was for sure down the corridor,
From a girl who was bored, and snored through the world
The war made her swore to realize
That if we’re all sheep in a world that’s overheating
And we can’t find a reason for this season of bleeding
Maybe we’re just not meant to survive
And that’s all by design
It’s all by design
Yeah that’s all by design
And the preacher’s daughter thinks she walks on water
Burning the bridge beneath her feet
Everyone’s waiting for her to fall in line
But the punishment from the government,
With their censorship and their poli-tricks
Well I’m about to be losing my damn mind
And that’s all by design
It’s all by design
Yeah that’s all by design
It’s all by design
It’s all by design
Yeah that’s all by design

If you take me back
Back to your place
I'll try not to bother you I promise
'Cause it's cold in here
And I wish it was hot
The sink's broke, it's leaking from the faucet
And i'm fractured from the fall
And i wanna go home
But it takes two when it used to take one
It takes two when it used to take only one
Well, my money's no good when i'm up to no good
No good ever comes from it, honest
I got a really good heart
I just can't catch a break
If i could i'd treat you like you wanted me to i promise
But i'm fractured from the fall
And i wanna go home
I'm fractured from the fall
And i wanna go home
But it takes two when it used to take one
It takes two when it used to take one
It takes two when it used to take one
It takes two when it used to take only one

The Sea Is Calling

The sea is calling, it sees you darling
And it’s been a while since I seen your face
And you said it’s hopeless, in Paso Robles
Wearing that old flower-patterned dress
Are you coming my way?
Are you keeping it strange?
Are you living it straight?
Are you feeling ashamed?
Has it weathered your frame?
Are you making your days?
Because I got a warning sign that the tides have turned tame,
And they’re calling your name
And the sea is calling, while you’re free falling
And it’s been a while since I’ve seen your face
And you say it’s hopeless, in Paso Robles
Do you still wear that flower-patterned dress?
Did you live a lot of places?
Did you leave a lot of traces, in the waves?
Did you see a lot of spaces?
Did you love a lot of faces, along the way?
Because I got a warning sign that the world has turned faceless,
It’s fucking graceless
Are you coming my way?
Are you keeping it strange?
Are you living it straight?
Are you taking the blame?
Has it rattled your game?
Are you the same damn dame?
Because I got a warning sign that they’re calling your name,
But I’m keeping it sane, yeah I’m staying away
