Well the people back in Texas Wonder how I get along Do they all wear sealskin jackets Do they smoke their brisket wrong Well I try to tell em buddy Don’t take this the wrong way I’ll take Damariscotta Oysters Over drive thru Chik Fil A The people back in Texas Wonder why did I go From the sunny skies of Dallas From training grounds at Lackland From the humid swamp of Houston To be buried in the snow But the people living up here in Maine Like Merle Haggard and Hank Williams just the same Ain’t you worried bout moose attacks Or slippin on the ice Have the people up there shamed you Into wearing boots that tie I still have my ropers And they’ve always had tread To be caught with smooth-sole square toes I’d rather be caught dead Some have told me that it’s better To stick around and fight But it isn’t safe for people Who check boxes that aren’t right Good luck to those I left behind I’m sorry that I’ve flown But until they welcome everyone I’ll call the northeast home

You kissed my wounds with salt Lead me to the moonlit coast I miss you when you drift But when you're here I hurt the most I built a house of sand and glass But I can't breathe inside My longing rises with the sun And is stolen by the tide And that's just how it goes You creep in with the dawn I breathe you in like smoke Stay as long as you want As long as you want I wade among these rocks And the yearning comes in waves No message in a bottle For the words we'll never say But that's just how it goes You roll in like the tide Seep into my bones Refract all the light I don't mind the cold The shadows where I belong You hold me so close I know the sun'll burn you off A veil of dreams I don't awake No pain endures No light escape But by now I should know Whenever you linger That I can't see past my nose You'll still slip through my fingers, figures It's just how it goes And I treat you no better I hold you so close Then I seek fairer weather
3.
Somewhere it’s turning out to be a beautiful day But here on my parade the rain is forecast to stay Dark clouds forming Weather warning on the radio This is a new low Watching the well of human kindness as it becomes drier People still pouring all their faith into a selfish denier It’s a shower* Cut the power and end this puppet show This is a new low I wish it all would wash down the drain And we can start all over again Out there the prospect’s looking grim, it’s still coming down Waiting for reason to prevail but it’s nowhere to be found
4.
far across the desert sands through the dead and barren lands i ride on the trail to find the man who fable claims can bring them back alive once we lived in verdance but our greed became our vice stripped of our abundance sold away our paradise and so i seek the legend salvation from the skies if we are all to survive as if by fortune most divine i see a shade approaching dressed in white then from his mouth, as black as night "are you prepared to pay the cost - your life?" flash of revelation as i realize the price fleeting desperation but ill make the sacrifice steel my heart for now i know this fate was meant to be each to their own destiny "herald of the golden age bringer of the saving rains - hear me!" the world can be reborn i will take the wrath following the thunders path call me the seeker of the storm
5.
every cloud has a silver lining in the shining string that ties me to you we can be free without ever escaping and a brewing storm brings a moment with you every sunset courts the horizon and it brings me closer to you we find release without any freedom there is a wind that carries us through we go down to Mordialloc Beach when the wind is right we go down to Mordialloc Beach and we're gonna fly nothing is truly hopeless unless you let it be hopeless there are no knots unless you have made them all you need is patience and virtue take your time, follow the strand and you will find your way out find your way to the end safely every time that I'm losing momentum and the weight is dragging me down gather the string and look for a breeze to lift me away from the black holes inside we go down to Mordialloc Beach when the wind is right we go down to Mordialloc Beach and we're gonna fly. we go down to Mordialloc Beach alright

you were born a thundercloud overwrought and overloud shaking lightning from your hair gods retreating from your glare you blew in, a hurricane tearing off the roof again the rain stays on the plain in spain but i'm not spanish, you explain while washing several scenic hill-based dwellings down the drain and i am a clear blue sky bang your hammer on your shield rainbows on the battlefield flowers blooming in your wake heavens crack and windows shake you said to me: for goodness' sake i just want a reaction just a little reaction just give me anything at all but i am a clear blue sky blameless empty blameless
7.
clouds gather far in the horizon blue turns to grey, grey turns to black dread in the air for those who do not soil their hand answer to prayers for those who live off the land closer now, ever closer, gift from the heavens weep upon us, dear sky bring us puddles where the children may play i'll be gone then, for i am made of clay and the rain came pouring down cool flow against my skin and the rain came pouring down washed away every trace of sin all things end, and so does rain clouds are nomads on the prairie of the sky in the clear you will see someone in my stead and a painting of a divine arc from violet to red and the rain came pouring down cool flow against my skin and the rain came pouring down washed away every trace of sin
8.
You call me up and say, “Let’s go for a walk,” I say, “I dunno, man, can’t we just talk on the phone? ‘Cause I’m scared to leave my house, but I’m also scared to be alone” And you said, “Joy, there’s not a single cloud in the sky I think you really need to go outside today ‘Cause we’re all waiting for you, and the weather’s subject to change” And I said, “Yes I’m sure that the weather’s fine, But there’s storm clouds forming in the back of my mind And I’m sure you’re gonna have a beautiful day, And I don’t wanna be the one to rain on your parade” And you said, “What’s it gonna take to convince you?” “I’m fighting demons, I’ve got issues I need to address Today’s just not the day, ‘cause I’m a nervous wreck” And you said, “Joy, we gotta get you outta your mind, ‘Cause whatever’s in your head is worse than the weather outside I swear you’re gonna be fine, just take a look outside, take a look outside” So I go to my window and peak through the blinds You’re out on the lawn with my friends in a line And you’re having a picnic and drinking wine And finally I know I’m gonna be fine So I throw on my jacket and step into the light And I’m met with embraces that grasp so tight And sunshine completely envelopes me And I bask in the warmth of your company And I said, “Yes, I see that the weather is fine, And the storm clouds forming in the back of my mind Are gonna have to wait for another day ‘Cause I’m not gonna be the one to rain on my parade”

Feel the touch of fall upon the breeze Watch her as she walks among the leaves October chill is in the air Watch autumn wind blow through her hair Cashmere cardigan I fall in love again Every time it’s sweater weather And I don’t mind the sundress times Summer nights, warmer climes Come November rain or shine Nothing else quite so divine Through the cold you see her smile At the park in her Fair Isle Leather patches, heathered sleeves Just as pretty as you please Every time it’s sweater weather Every time it’s sweater weather (I fall in love again) Every time it’s sweater weather (Cashmere cardigan) Every time it’s sweater weather

you told me I was dangerous it still hits me where I live to tell the truth the harm I do I'm not sure you should forgive the future is not limitless and less so every minute if the final hand is winding down then bet that I'm still in it I've been listening for the wind And the thunder close behind Racing through the power lines Your bluegrey eyes Like raging skies Of a storm over the ocean They took me down But I won't drown And what gave you that notion you told me I was dangerous and I said maybe so if you want to quit you should just say it or where else will we go I've been listening for the wind And the thunder close behind Racing through the power lines Your bluegrey eyes Like raging skies Of a storm over the ocean They took me down But I won't drown And what gave you that notion The waves crashed down The crushing sound Deafened me to senseless Your bluegrey eyes Like raging skies Leaving me defenseless don't settle for something you don't believe believes in you I understand There was nothing else to do Your bluegrey eyes Like raging skies Of a storm over the ocean They took me down But I won't drown And what gave you that notion

it's a miracle that I got this far balancing marbles on a flat top car there's a fog that never lifts in a place that always twists and navigation is impossible when you live that this in my pop-pop-popcorn brain shrouded with thoughts that I can't contain this showers coming down on us all and when the rain falls yeah it starts to pour there's a paper cup that you can't fill that's neither broken, damaged or ill like walking through treacle in a restless mind where things are cluttered and hide to find and escape is impossible when you live that this in my pop-pop-popcorn brain shrouded with thoughts that I can't contain this showers coming down on us all and when the rain falls yeah it starts to pour
13.
The swelter of the summer in the tropics is a trigger Depression is a prophecy of something bigger But no matter what that signaling may claim Like love and loss the cycle is the same CH And so it begins As the hurricane spins Raindrops battle for a place to land The rattling winds Make the palm trees bend Then the roaring sea tries to claim the sand Til the ocean finds it’s only made of little drops of rain again We made a plan for life to last forever We’d batten down the hatches in bad weather But we were just a spark to catalyze A glimpse of heaven in our children’s eyes CH And so it begins As the hurricane spins Raindrops battle for a place to land The rattling winds Make the palm trees bend Then the roaring sea tries to claim the sand Til the ocean finds it’s only made of little drops of rain again Every sunrise we see At the edge of this rock Only flashes for a moment or two Till it all rolls around For another chance to renew… And be born Like a child in a storm CH And so it begins As the hurricane spins Raindrops battle for a place to land The rattling winds Make the palm trees bend Then the roaring sea tries to claim the sand Til the ocean finds it’s only made of little drops of rain again

Maybe we’re friends, maybe we’re not anymore, I’m not sure where this ends We’re balancing lives, we barely have time to pretend all this just seems so wrong And the weather had turned much warmer here I don’t know how this cold snap froze your heart Tiny Tears was the song on the radio and the words seemed so right from what I know. There’ll be a cold, hard blackberry winter We’re protecting all our vines on the sycamore tree And at the end of this cold blackberry winter will you still be so frosty with me? Does this just end? Will it be all temporary or does time do its thing and amend? The vanishing light is pulling the breath out of me, and it’s like I don’t understand this spring fool fever’s gone. I don’t know how to be, it’s been so long. Tiny Tears was the song on the radio and the words seemed so right from what I know. There’ll be a cold, hard blackberry winter We’re protecting all our vines on the sycamore tree And at the end of this cold blackberry winter will you still be so frosty with me? I I I set aside what’s mine. Take what you want you take; the fairy lights, the painted cup, I only wish I’d just shut up A cold, hard blackberry winter We’re protecting all our vines on the sycamore tree And at the end of this cold blackberry winter will you still be so frosty with me? There’ll be a cold, hard blackberry winter We’re protecting all our vines on the sycamore tree And at the end of this cold blackberry winter will you still be, will you still be with me?

(Verse 1) Do you remember, In all of the gray, The scent of the morning And all the things you didn't say? (Chorus) As the snow falls Can you still see where you are? As the snow falls Does the silence warm your heart? (Verse 2) Another December The sky turns to gray All the hope you kept It falls just the same... (Chorus) As the snow falls Can you still see where you are? As the snow falls Does the silence warm your heart? (Bridge) In the fog, do you see As we fall we're one? As we fall, do you see All you are is just a part?
16.
It's amazing how the weather Can turn on just a dime How blue could stretch forever Amidst unending shine, And suddenly a little crack Echoes in the air Blue replaced with wispy grays Laced with gusts of sharp despair The atmosphere holds me here A weighted blanket of mist A storm within my heart begins And cannot be dismissed When it holds me in its eye I glimpse at last, the bluest sky I laugh and kick my heels with joy Until the squall knocks me aside These gray clouds call on me Im wrapped in their embrace As raindrops fall on me Running down my face In my eyes, I see them fall In my heart, I feel them all Heavy clouds that never seem to pass Soak me to the bone and hold me fast
17.
Verse One: I got a little tension released from your reaction I didn’t mean to meddle or cause any infractions When the world starts to spin around I get lost trying not to drown I don’t want to sink or swim in your rationale PreChorus One: It’s no fun being funneled Spiraling up and down Rotating, crazy-making (I) feel dumb as I’m dumbfound Chorus: If you’re lost in a big ocean of doubt Just follow itsty spider up the waterspout You’ll feel much better up in the clouds You’re still connected through the waterspout Verse Two: You never fail to mention that you were offended I think I rowed my boat too close and got upended Sometimes I think you want me dead I’m in these waters just trying to tread Too many accusations have just gone undefended PreChorus Two: I’m mystified as the mist defies To fall gently to the ground I’m hypnotized, can’t believe my eyes Or this moment that I have found Chorus: Bridge: If you get too cold up in your cumulous cloud Relax and float down, the water’s warm right now Chorus:

he’s peeking through dark curtains getting ready to go he sees nothing but sunshine outside but once he steps out, the cold darkness of clouds chased by a turbulent sky thunderstorms develop out of nowhere rain rattles the roof as he drives almost blind, the wipers falling behind chased by a turbulent sky never any colors on the radar the forecast calls for pleasant and dry when he’s forced out of hiding the heavens start colliding no idea why everyone around begins to scurry about ducking in doorways and out of sight he just keeps going in a storm all his own chased by a turbulent sky no idea why chased by a turbulent sky never any sun or any stars in the night clouds are always blocking the light branches sway and leaves start to fly no idea why no one seems to realize the reason for a sudden downpour as he passes by the streets that he walks are never dry chased by a turbulent sky no idea why chased by a turbulent sky no idea why chased by a turbulent sky

We were weary of the jungle She moves away to Thunder Bay I wander in the Arizona desert So I'm talking to the cacti I read her text, say ”what the heck” Tho 30 hours of driving makes my head hurt I've got a rusty Chevy beater Balding tires, broken heater A full tank of gas And a microwave burrito North at Oklahoma City The weather's chilly, starts to sleet I-35's a skating rink for SUVs Radio says it should get clearer Can barely see, low visibility So many people have slid off of the shoulders I've got a rusty Chevy beater Balding tires, broken heater A full tank of gas And a Taco Bell burrito Driving slowly through the sleet and the snow The whole night Driving slowly through the sleet and the snow This old highway's a blanket of white I'm still driving through the sleet and the snow And all the people with common sense Are sleeping They're sleeping in their beds CH
20.
My world was serene Always bathed in sunshine I drifted through life I had nothing but time But something was wrong That I couldn't explain My days were boring So humdrum, mundane I needed excitement To lift my malaise Escape an existence Which had become staid I invited you in Gave you free rein To sow your destruction Across my domain You were a hurricane You were a hurricane You were a hurricane You were a hurricane Atmosphere cracked As you breezed into town The wind picked up As the rain hammered down Buffeted by gales And waves 'gainst my shore Wanton destruction Couldn't be ignored Ripped slates from the rooves And broke down fences Pulled trees from their roots Smashed through my defences Your words struck hard Dripped in disdain Your treatment of me Just felt so inhumane You were a hurricane You were a hurricane You were a hurricane You were a hurricane (You blew me away) It's not your fault And you're not to blame Cos I should've seen You're a hurricane
21.
Verse one Batten down the hatches in the lower deck Fasten all of the latches really tight The storm is brewing and looming, coming into sight We’ve gotta save our necks PC Save yourself first If you can save anyone Chorus Take my hand Psychotic little cyclone Kiss the ground and take me away I’m in awe of your Oz You’ve spun me ‘round all morning You left me ‘lone But you rocked me all night Verse Two Look around for anyone and everyone We’ve gotta react as fast as we can Look through the ruins of the village that was here last night And be prepared to run
22.
I am sensitive to initial conditions I've got a blank space And I'll write your name The forecast's looking good Let's ride with the top down With your hand in mine we face the IF IS THEN Of this strange attraction that I am determined to Repeat Repeat Repeat I am sensitive to initial conditions I've cut a blank cheque And I'll write your name The forecast says it's freezing Let's hide in this bunker With you by my side we face the IF IS THEN Of this strange attraction that I am determined to Repeat Repeat Repeat I am sensitive to initial conditions I've cut a decimal And I'm taking aim The forecast's in a mood Let's glide on the current With your wing by mine we face the IF IS THEN Of this strange attraction that I am determined to Repeat Repeat Repeat I am sensitive to initial conditions I've cut a decimal Now nothing is the same The forecast's on the wing A flood of numbers float away into the IF IS THEN Of this strange attraction that I am determined to Repeat Repeat Repeat

Verse 1 In the silence of our room, where laughter used to bloom, The frost crept in, unseen, through the cracks beneath our feet. Whispers turned to echoes, in the halls of our demise, Where warmth once danced, now only cold replies. Chorus Frostbitten hearts, in the winter of our love, Lost in the chill, where did the warmth go? Fading sparks, under the pale moon above, Frostbitten hearts, in the silence of the snow. Verse 2 Memories like autumn, swiftly swept away, Leaves that turned from gold to gray, in the light of day. Our breaths became a mist, our words the icy air, The distance grew between us, a chasm of despair. Chorus Frostbitten hearts, in the winter of our love, Caught in the freeze, where did the flames go? Fading sparks, beneath the starless sky above, Frostbitten hearts, lost in the endless snow. Bridge But in the deepest freeze, beneath the ice and ache, Lies the spring awaiting, for the thaw to take. Can we melt these walls, let the rivers flow, Find the warmth within us, let our hearts regrow? Chorus Frostbitten hearts, in the winter of our love, Searching the cold, for a spark to reignite. Fading sparks, longing for the sun above, Frostbitten hearts, yearning for the light. Outro As the seasons turn, may we find our spring, Where frostbitten hearts can heal, and love can sing. In the warmth of our embrace, let the thaw begin, Frostbitten hearts, finding warmth within.

Clouds inside her mind send lighting to her eyes I’ve watched a hundred times and know her warning signs Satan’s on her shoulder and tells her what I told her Are foggy fabrications creeping slow like vines Verse 2: It’s a wild fire, and I tire From running through the smoke There’re words I’m trying to choke out here Through muck and mire, could have inspired But it’s blowing away, in this darkening gray Chorus A: If we… say something better Than maybe we can weather this Thought we were tethered But it seems you’d rather sever it Thought we were clever, can’t believe we were just fettered To an idea, somehow, that we could be together Chorus B: And it all just falls Like the rain clouds ball, when they feel heavy Then thunder calls Shaking down the walls (of our glass house) Verse 3: Flames are still ablaze, and we’re Trapped inside a haze Blinded by the rage as darkness swirls ahead As twilight moves to daybreak I start to sense the earthquake The morning sky is ominus with shades of red Verse 4: It’s nothing new but you’re like a haboob You kick up all the dust and force what shines to rust Sweet morning dew could not renew What’s cracked beyond repair and thrown up in the air
25.
Thunder Starts to blacken the skies You don’t see it Well, that’s no surprise The rain falls down but you stay dry ‘Cause where you are sun fills the sky Chorus: Wish you were here where skies aren’t clear in (The weather inside my head) Rain fall down, I just might drown from (The weather inside my head) Sometimes The clouds roll away But the low-pressure system will not stay You’re just a cloud - my brain’s triage All my clear days just a mirage Chorus: Our atmospheres are not in sync (The weather inside my head) My thoughts are not quite what you think (The weather inside my head) Bridge: I used to run around I could always stay out no matter the weather outside I never got sick Outside was blustery, inside I stayed warm and dry But now I’m so cold I need a coat, a scarf and my pills to survive Was it because of you? Or is it just a condition to being alive? Raining Does it ever cease? Can you see it? What provides a release? Umbrellas do not work in here When outside me the skies are clear Chorus: Will you stay blow the storms away (The weather inside my head) Or will it storm for another day (The weather inside my head)
26.
In the morning The clouds were high & white We were heading for a fight You were standing, justified, you had your reasons And I had mine At the party The sky was low & gray As you tried to walk away I was begging you to stay, you called it treason What could I say After midnight Sky the deepest shade of blue Looking for one damn thing that's true You said you could see through me like a vision You said you knew That there were omens, there were signs In the thunderheads, in the cumuli You said that the sky could tell Why you and I never quite fell In love the way we should And whether This old weather Will ever blow something good
27.
Woke up in the morning In a stimulated mood What I felt beneath the covers Was some diamond-chipping wood I am not the kind who dwells upon the things I can’t explain All I know is that that morning it was raining The next few days were sunny With my venom levels low Had a fling, but didn’t finish Felt diminished down below For a time, my only lover was despair Until one day, the clouds returned And I became aware The ozone breeze My weakened knees, baby Muscles seized, baby And when the first few drops Splashed against the window My sole priority Was finding my crescendo Oh, Curse this hurricane between my legs Lay in bed and feel the drumming Coming from the rain And when the first few drops Splash against the pavement I lock myself inside and wonder where the day went Oh, Curse this thunder rolling through my veins Can’t control the inner churning Pouring down for days Oh, I have to lock myself away Cage this passion-addled atmospheric Discharge from the rain
28.
I watched Jackie Walorski’s funeral procession drive past my school It was bright and cool Hundreds of friends and families and police and supporters and a hearse There was a dry, windy desert in my heart There was nothing in hers My mother taught me to bank on your tormentors dying And then life will be fine But when Tucker and Donald and his stupid kids are all gone The gutters are gonna swell over With cheap hangers-on I keep trying to write songs about how beautiful and good and dignified All people are inside And end up writing about you saying you’d slam your car into a pole and we’d be all right There’s no weather down in a coal mine So there’s nothing in your heart It’s an impact winter in mine
29.
“The wind was always blowing and the sand got in my eyes” He would say that was the reason that he cried It wasn’t from the IEDs or seeing friends go home with pieces missing, or in body bags It was the sand the wind and sand The desert storm which blew all of his friends away It was the sand, the wind and sand The desert storm which blew His friends away ~~~ “The wind is always blowing Full of grit and stench and flies He would say from in his box on the street “And nobody can see me now I’m always here alone If I go missing, nobody would cry I’ll be like sand, like wind blown sand the desert storm still blows all of my life away I’ll be like sand, like wind blown sand The desert storm still blows My life away
30.
Last night I thought of what I’d say to you Dazzle you with tales of saturnalia but when I saw you in the park reading Hemingway I lost track of the things I wanted to say I studied nephology to show you the sky Memorized your favorite poems line by line Started daydreaming, picturing you laughing all I could say is “nice weather we’re having” I wanted to tell you how I feel for you then the words go, and the words go, and the words go and I talk about the weather You told me your dreams of being an author How your life changed when you lost your father When you wanted to know what I care about It felt like a drought had formed in my mouth I studied the birds to show you on walks I planned out jokes, all the little talks You bared your soul to me; I was unprepared All I could say was, “boy, it’s hot out there” I wanted to tell you how I feel for you then the words go, and the words go, and the words go and I talk about the weather Barometric pressure, cumulus clouds Sudden sunshower, what’s that all about Ball lightning, rainbows, hail Talking to you, all the words fail Climate change bringing heat waves Have you ever been in an earthquake Monsoons and acid rain Thinking of you, words get in the way I wanted to tell you how I feel for you then the words go, and the words go, and the words go and I talk about the weather
31.
I'm listening to the rain 'Cause I know you're gone again And I'm wonderin' if this time it's for good I can hear the mournful sound Of the sky come tumbling down And I wonder if I ever understood When I first met you The skies were always blue But recently something has changed 'Cause the skies are always gray And you're always goin' away And I'm left here just standin' in the rain -- CHORUS -- All I can feel is the pain And I know just what I am missin' All I can do is stand and listen While I'm standin' in the rain To the falling of the rain I know if you'd been true I would never be so blue I can only hope you feel the same Maybe someday, somehow I'll find the light beyond the clouds But right now I'm just standin' in the rain -- CHORUS (x2) --
32.
Chorus Am Now on my little island the sun appears C. Am Maybe two to three weeks of the year.

The night is coming and the rain is pouring I'm in my bed and should be snoring I laid down but the weather's still storming While the mobs are outside and swarming You don't have a bed and you won't go offline While I just want a little sunshine You're making my time here pretty bleak If it's got to rain it might as well be blood Lack of sleep has driven me to it Here soon there's going to be a red flood A lightening strike has sparked this rage When this ends you'll die in a puddle of mud I could be stuck in a hole, nowhere to go Hoping to see another rainbow I beg and plead but you say you're too busy It's rained so long my hair is getting frizzy All I need in this world is a little sleep I've already counted all my sheep You're making my time here pretty bleak If it's got to rain it might as well be blood Lack of sleep has driven me to it Here soon there's going to be a red flood A lightening strike has sparked this rage When this ends you'll die in a puddle of mud Drowned are coming up on the beach I can hear the phantoms screech Stop what your doing and pray I got riptide heading your way *evil laughl* If you like monsters I'll give you one... You're making my time here pretty bleak If it's got to rain it might as well be blood Lack of sleep has driven me to it Here soon there's going to be a red flood A lightening strike has sparked this rage When this ends you'll die in a puddle of mud
