Anxiety Baby
Can't fall asleep, cuz you think too much, about falling asleep,
it’s a great big noise, sucks the life and joy, out of everything
You think that everyone hates you, and everyone blames you, for everything not right
You’re so lonely, you just can't believe, there’s a reason to be, alive
If you could turn off all these thoughts you would
But until then, you’ll be misunderstood
And it’s driving you crazy
It’s your anxiety, baby
Everyone thinks you’re lazy
It’s your anxiety baby
Thoughts come to stay lately
It’s your anxiety baby
Your future is hazy
It’s your anxiety baby
Can’t talk to friends, cuz you think too much, about what you’ll say
When they ask you how, your new music sounds, and you’ve wrote nothing
You could tell them truth, but you’d sound like a fool, and so you choose to lie
You say it’s fine, always just fine, fine’s just a scripted line, you wanna die
If you could just be honest with yourself
Maybe someday you’d get some fucking help
Get outta your head, get into your heart
Get outta your head, get into your heart,
So break out, break out, break out, and start connecting
Use that brilliant mind to help you find a way
So maybe you’re crazy
It’s just anxiety baby
You know you're not lazy
It’s just anxiety baby
Challenge yourself daily
Fight your anxiety baby
Let go of the maybes
It’s just anxiety baby

Changes
Looking out at the world
Time keeps moving, with every turn
Change is the only constant
And it only gets faster, let’s be honest
The more that I see, the less I can fear the inescapable. Oh change is inescapable
The more I feel free, the more I can see myself, be as I really am, oh as I really am
Realize things aren't always as they seem
Recognize there are in betweens
We're so caught up in the dance of “this” or “that”
That we can’t see the truth
This life is what we make it
And the changes are the proof
Being out in the world
Rigid constructs at every turn
We won’t budge, even though it’s obvious
The walls shut us down, it’s killing us
Please let us see, the errors lead us to, this place of despair, oh this place of despair
The wars in our minds, are starving to find, the way to hope again, oh to hope again
We can’t stay in this place, if we want to survive the pain
It’s nature, adapt or die. We have to change, to stay alive

You, Me, Everything, Everywhere
Its a rainy day ( its a rainy day)
And there ain't nobody out ( nobody nobody)
Will you come with me (down to the creek)
And get washed by the downpour
(She said to me “ What is it we’re doing here?”
I said “Really I don't know what it all means
You and me, everything, everywhere
maybe we are all just the rain falling down)
Another rainy day (Another rainy day)
Will you sit with me awhile? (Just a little while)
It has been some time (so many storms)
Since we sat to watch the downpour
While we were sitting there
I looked into your eyes
And I saw all the clouds
That were filling up the skies
All of the forest
had risen from the ground
It grew from all the rain
That the clouds poured down
Wandered through the trees wondered
how long it will last
Covered up myself in leaves as I passed
Got tired and went down to the stream
Thunder in the sky woke me up from this dream
(She said to me “what is it that we have
here?
Is it just we aint got nowhere else to go?
You and me, everything, everywhere
Maybe we are all just the rain falling down)
Its a rainy day (It's a rainy day)
It stopped for awhile (will it ever let up)
Will you lay with me (on the bed of this creek)
And get washed by the downpour
There is so much wrong (in this world what a world)
There's been so many tears (so much crying no more crying)
Will you lay them down (here on the shore)
To be washed by the downpour
While we were laying there
I listened to the skies
And i heard every sound
That you spoke to the night
Every whisper
Every shout
Ringing in my ears
Falling to the ground
Honestly what is it that we are here?
Can you really tell where it all ends?
You and me, everything, everywhere
Maybe we are all just the rain
Falling down
Maybe we are all just the rain
Falling down
Falling down
Falling down
Falling down
Falling down

Where Are You Now?

Where Are You Now?
Where are you now? I don’t really know
Maybe your essence is somehow around.
It seems so surreal, that you’re not here
With us as we talk about life on the ground
Oh, where are you now
When I found out that you were gone
It tore my heart open, left it bloody and raw
You were so sick, deep down we all knew it
But we hoped beyond hope you’d pull through it
Where are you now? Did you cease to exist?
Did you just get absorbed by the collective abyss?
Were you aware? Or did you just drift?
Oh, I wish you were here to tell me:
Where are you now?
I’m sorry, I didn’t call you, the last few years.
Like you, I isolate myself when I’m sad
The only real difference, between you and I
Was that your way of coping, was more deadly than mine
Over the years, we got caught up in our lives
But whenever we’d hang out, we’d talk like old times
You were so smart, and always at ease
Your demons so hidden, that I couldn't see

The Person
I'm sorry I'm not the person I used to be.
I wish I were but I'm not and I'm trying to bring, them back
I wish I could just go back to being that confident person.
Maybe that never was me, was it all an act.
And I know you're frustrated with my restraint and I'm sorry that I can’t be better
At meeting your needs oh I know I can’t please you I'm terrified to see, that
Maybe we're just not meant to be. I love you so much but I can't see
A way that this works out, A way to get back what we had
Because ultimately, I'm not the person, the person you need me to be
I'm sorry I'm not the person I thought I was
When we first got together, I told you you'd be my primary one.
But that didn't feel right, and I told you as much and we said we would make it work
And now you are needing that more everyday and I feel like I'm a big jerk
I'm holding you back, and
And I wanted to be that person for you, and I wanted try and see it through
Sometimes it's better to give up and call it draw
But that doesn't change the heartbreak when you fall

Tiny Rock
It’s too damn early I should be asleep
But it’s good I got shit to do
Is it too late already? The word on the street
There ain't shit anyone can do
In all I am insignificant
On a tiny rock in the universe
I do what I can it may not be much
It is all I can really do
And all of the rich men are staying in tonight
All of the poor folks are going to war
I’m packing my slingshot trouble’s a gonna come
Come on in trouble I’ll close the door
In all I am insignificant
On a tiny rock in the universe
I do what I can it may not be much
It is all I can really do
In all I am insignificant
On a tiny rock in the universe
I do what I can it may not be much
It is all I can really do
Got no money Got no power
Only this moment Only this hour
You never know what might take down a giant
You know it just might take a tiny rock
You know it just might take a tiny rock
You know it just might take a tiny rock
You know it just might take a tiny rock
