Soul Tied 03:27

There’s a part of me that never sleeps I hear you crying, darling, in my dreams An invisible string tethers me to you I miss who I used to be She faded so quietly But when I wanna go, when I wanna leave I see your face, remember why I breathe The oceans in your eyes; the simple ties that bind We’re tangled up, entwined for all of time We’re soul tied There's a part of me that longs for freedom She'd hit the road, she'd go, she’d chase my dreams, but An invisible string tethers me to you Yeah, I miss who I used to be She faded so quietly But when I wanna go, when I wanna leave I see your face, remember why I breathe The oceans in your eyes; the simple ties that bind We’re tangled up, entwined for all of time We’re soul tied Heart, home, body, soul Will never be the same I wouldn’t change it You rearranged me But when I wanna go, when I wanna leave I see your face, remember why I breathe The oceans in your eyes; the simple ties that bind We’re tangled up, entwined for all of time We’re soul tied We’re soul tied We’re soul tied

Last Generation 03:18
lyrics

Everybody’s sad these days Worried what the future looks like Everytime I scroll a page I read about another divide People are dying down here We’re spending billions in the clouds Poison in the atmosphere In the air and on the ground Baby, are we gonna make it? Are we the last generation? Baby, are we gonna make it? Are we the last generation? Tell me, tell me, baby Plea-ea-ea-ea-ea-ease Sky turned red today Smoke made it harder to breathe Cases on the climb again Somehow you still don’t believe I used to think we’d grow old Drink wine and listen to music Now I’m staring into a void Singing through my con fusion Baby, are we gonna make it? Are we the last generation? Baby, are we gonna make it? Are we the last generation? Tell me, tell me, baby Are we the last generation? Baby, are we gonna make it? Are we the last generation? Tell me, tell me, baby Plea-ea-ea-ea-ea-ease Everybody’s sad these days Worried what the future looks like Everytime I scroll a page I read about another divide

Do I know you This face in the mirror The one I am looking at now You look familiar But not like I remember Everything’s changed somehow Sure, I’m older Time has flown by But that’s not all I can see This brand new person Looking back at me She brings me to my knees My body hurts It’s in my eyes Don’t wanna be so Tired and wise From all I’ve learned This love sublime Leaves me heartbroken All the time Last December Days long gone Holding my baby in my arms Crying softly So no one could hear me Feeling so broken, so scarred My body hurts It’s in my eyes Don’t wanna be so Tired and wise From all I’ve learned This love sublime Leaves me heartbroken All the time There were fires in California There were people in the streets There were children locked in cages Mine was looking up at me There were fires in California There were people in the streets There were kids on ventilators Mine was looking up at me My body hurts It’s in my eyes Don’t wanna be so Tired and wise From all I’ve learned This love sublime Leaves me heartbroken Do I know you This face in the mirror The one I am looking at now You look familiar But not like I remember Everything’s changed somehow

Invisible Woman 04:13
lyrics

It smells like Monday morning My coffee’s hot, I’m yawning The baby cries and I watch your eyes open The house starts comin’ alive, like A construction site at sunrise Everybody gets a “good morning” except for me This would all fall apart if I disappeared But you don’t even seem to notice I’m here I’m like the tiny little nails holding up the frame of this house Invisible woman Invisible woman You’re never gonna know you need me until I’m gone Until I’m gone Little feet down the hallway Everybody, everybody’s callin’ my name All at once I’m everything And I’m nothing all This would all fall apart if I broke down But nobody’s looking at what’s underground I’m like the stone foundation no one thinks about until it cracks Invisible woman Invisible woman You’re never gonna know you need me until I’m gone Until my Coffee’s cold Now it’s time to go And I can't help but hate you just for leaving It’s not your fault You didn’t set the world up wrong But my rage could blow right through this goddamn ceiling Invisible woman Invisible woman You’re never gonna know you need me until I’m gone Until I’m gone Invisible woman Invisible woman You’re never gonna know you need me until I’m gone Until I’m gone Until I’m gone It’s not your fault You didn’t set the world up wrong If I disappear If I disappear Will you know I was here Will you see me… Folding clothes, my head’s full of have-tos Remembering what it was like to have you Wondering why I'm in charge of anything When I’m such a mess

Long Way Down 03:35
lyrics
buy track
I used to be the kind of girl Who’d never lose a fight I’d always get the final word No matter what was right I know it’s hard to trust me After all those little lies Is it too much to ask you, love, to try It’s a long way down to rock bottom I don’t wanna take it that far Can we come back once I’ve fallen Or will we fall apart The air is cold between us, and, it makes it hard to breathe Our competition freezes, babe, until we disagree I drink too much and ask you if my best is just enough Or, is it I’m impossible to love It’s a long way down to rock bottom I don’t wanna take it that far Can we come back once I’ve fallen Or will we fall apart No one’s raised by angels We’ve both made mistakes Before we fade to strangers Can we get straight It’s a long way down to rock bottom I don’t wanna take it that far Can we come back once I’ve fallen Or will we fall apart

Too Much of You 03:39
lyrics

Where would you go if you didn’t love me Who would you know if I didn’t hold you back Sometimes I think I need too much of you Too much of you You could travel the world Without care or concern Free of heavy responsibilities Have more money, more time Have that third glass of wine Spend your mornings with coffee full of ease There’s always a question in the back of my mind Where would you go if you didn’t love me Who would you know if I didn’t hold you back Sometimes I think I need too much of you Too much from you You could travel the world Without care or concern And still never, ever feel free Have more money, more time Have that third glass of wine Spend your mornings alone on your knees There’s always a question in the back of my mind Where would you go if you didn’t love me Who would you know if I didn’t hold you back Sometimes I think I need too much of you Too much from you

Fools In Love 03:39

You act like you’re in charge Can’t admit when you were wrong You come to me with stupid questions And I let you I know I can be soft-spoken Can’t you hear me, baby, hoping You’ll read my mind Why can’t you read my mind Oooooh, It’s not our fault We didn’t set the world up wrong But here we are Another set of broken-hearted fools in love We came here looking for some answers Never agreed on all the questions We had in mind I cannot read your mind Oooooh, It’s not our fault We didn’t set the world up wrong But here we are Another set of broken-hearted fools in love A bottle in, we’re on the couch Strangers in a quiet house How do I reach out and touch you A bottle in, we’re on the couch Strangers in the here and now Do you want me like I want you Oooooh, It’s not our fault We didn’t set the world up wrong But here we are Another set of broken-hearted fools in love

I called a friend at the end of the day Couldn’t wait to talk about something other than you Turns out I don’t have so much to say ‘Cuz I found myself talkin’ ‘bout you I worked so hard to get you off my mind Rocked you, laid you down to bed Here I am for the millionth time Thoughts of you, running through my head Holding you feels like water Running through my hands, yes, it’s true Who am I? I’m your mother And I live and breathe talkin’ ‘bout you Sometimes I wish I could close my heart Stitch it up where you burst right on through It hurts too much to know I’m one in a million Mothers talkin’ ‘bout you Holding you feels like water Running through my hands, yes, it’s true Who am I? I’m your mother And I live and breathe talkin’ ‘bout you Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh Holding you feels like water Running through my hands, yes, it’s true Who am I? I’m your mother And I live and breathe talkin’ ‘bout you Who am I? I’m your mother Here I am, here I am talkin’ ‘bout you

Came up here in the sunshine Wind in my hair There’s a city below me Has it always been there I escaped from the darkness Our love cast in doubt Your words fell so harshly I tried not to shout I don’t know if we can weather all the storms inside my mind But I hope that I’ll do better, cuz there’s one truth I have found When I close my eyes, babe When I close my eyes, babe When I close my eyes, babe I see your face I don’t know where I’m going I don’t know where you’ve been I don’t know how we found ourselves Here fighting again I don’t have any answers And I can’t find the words I don’t know how a girl could have So much to unlearn I don’t know if we can weather all the storms inside my mind But I hope that I’ll do better, cuz there's one truth I have found When I close my eyes, babe When I close my eyes, babe When I close my eyes, babe I see your face There’s a light in you There’s a light in me That’s the one thing I know for sure When life gets too hard, babe When life gets too hard, babe When I close my eyes, babe I see your face

The Unknown - Acoustic Version 03:23
lyrics

I need a push like gravity I need a push like gravity To get me back down to earth Down to earth I wanna be at home in the unknown I need a thought to carry me I need a thought to carry me On down the river wild, River wild I wanna be at home in the unknown Bridge: Open me wide So many times I’ve tried To bury my roots And forget my truth Nothing can prepare me For mysteries There’s a method to the madness There’s a method to the madness This ain’t a pipe dream, I’m listening, listening I wanna be at home in the unknown Give me fire, give me magic Wanna be inspired, instead of tragic I know I’m not alone, I gotta let go of control, control I wanna be at home in the unknown I wanna be at home in the unknown I wanna be at home in the unknown
