lyrics

I wonder how it got this far
My body has run away from me
My thoughts can’t catch a break at any hour
Believe me, I’ve tried everything
The drinks and the drugs, acting out all the scenes
But I lost their plots before they even started

Things are turning a darker mood
I’ve tried to kill the monster hunting me like food
And now I have no map to find my way around here

But my mind’s a hurricane

Sometimes I get glimpses of
A time when things weren’t all so goddamn very hard
And my mother was alive and everyone around me was healthy
Silently I move through sludge
Grab the horns of the bull but it won't budge
And now I carry out my next plan with such trepidation

Lest I lose my grip on this
And the protocol is so independent
I must admit there were a few times I thought myself dead weight

Now my mind’s a hurricane

I batten down the hatches so that I can
Free myself from the pain I know
And then I plan my next escape from all the action

So the thing I’ve learned: much work to do
At least a major overhaul of my entire mood
You bet this full time job might cover me in daisies

Now my mind’s a hurricane

All of these qualities are crafted over melodic soundscapes that are sometimes dark, sometimes quirky, and sometimes raw and beautiful. ... more
