i saw you pass like a train right beside mine
so close i couldn't tell who was moving, you or I
i finally got your letter, right as I woke up
right as I tore open the envelope
I've been living lately on airplane naps
In little dreams you wish wouldn't end
i've been learning how to miss you better
learning how to miss my friends
hoping my good luck will come back and bring the wrath
enough to keep the train rolling
enough to get me back to you
one day you and I will hopefully figure out the math
till then don't worry keep going
don't worry keep going
it's such a big old sky, draped across my eyes
thought maybe I'd paint you in the stained glass of my mind
when i wake up, come find me again sometime
i'll put you up on the marquee of my mind
paint you in the stained glass of my mind

Safe For Old Time's Sake

Smoke a Marlboro 100 for old times sake, the kind your mom knew I stole from here but she never said a thing
let's act like kids and watch the clouds roll from the back porch, all at once feel the universe in unison stumbling forth
Stoned as the day is long, hold onto this place anyway i can until its gone
Here we will be safe
Safe for old times sake
Meet you at the top beneath the Rose Hills sign, We’ll smoke and stand among the bodies, search the smog for a skyline
try not to walk over strangers, look for our family, maybe run into our friends, maybe find some celebrities
stoned as the day is long in a graveyard,
Hold on to these moments any way I can until they're gone
Here we will be safe
Safe for old time’s sake
Smoke a Marlboro 100 till I’m sick to my stomach
Just one for your mother to let her know that I love her

Truth In Stereo

someday soon
My ears will pop
i will hear you loud and clear
And all that noise will stop
I'll let it all go
If only for a second
i’ll hear the truth in stereo
Pray time is a boomerang
Waste it all at once
Hope it comes back
Like all the money I was told that time was
Let it all go
nothing but time to throw away with you
I got nothing but time,
nothing but time till you come through
Oh now don’t you fade away
Like a wave in the rear view mirror
Small and getting smaller
Turning a corner then you disappear
Running from love out in the empty frontier
There in the static
like a police scanner in the wind
Like a ghost in a hallway
In the way back when
Over the mountainside
Right around the bend
I swear I heard you once before
I’ll hear you again
Oh now don’t you fade away
Like a wave in the rear view mirror
Small and getting smaller
Turning a corner then you disappear
Running from love out here in the empty frontier
Don't wanna run away from love no more
Don’t wanna be a runaway no more
someday soon
My ears will pop
i will hear you loud and clear
And all that noise will stop
I will let it go

See You In A Daydream

SEE YOU IN A DAYDREAM
A dream built on a photograph
Lost in the shuffle and cut in half
visions in my eyelids of you and I, a couple drunken kids
Somewhere by the park blocks
Before the city closed em off
See you in a daydream In all the notebooks that I lost
Someday you lose the vaults
Whether you like it or not
All you can do is hope it’s not your fault
see you in every random thought
Anything that I collect
See you in a daydream, See you in the disconnect
See you in the archives
You are big and bright and beautiful and all sorts of alive
You are a relic, you’re a landline
A dial tone ringing in the back of my mind
See you in all the letters
In every one i forgot to dot and cross
See you in a daydream
In all the notebooks that I lost

aircraft viewing area north
At the albuquerque sunport
with 100 photos of honeymoon bliss
now I love you more than I'm comfortable with
juan tabo hills west right ahead
and us just sitting there, quiet as a prayer
dunno when I'll see you again
but when i do let's go everywhere
with 100 photos of the same exact face
A hundred photos of the same exact place
A hundred photos of the honeymoon phase
100 photos I just can't erase
Till then I’ll paint a little picture of the two of us
Cuddled up on a filthy city bus
Dunno when i’ll see you again
Goddamn, I hope one day it all comes true
with 100 photos of the same exact face
A hundred photos of the same exact place
A hundred photos of the honeymoon phase
100 photos I just can't erase
aircraft viewing area north
At the albuquerque sunport
with 100 photos of honeymoon bliss
now I love you more than I'm comfortable with
