Mama's acting so mad dad he seems so sad Sister starts to whimper they just lose their temper I lock myself in my room and watch lots of TV when I go to get food I pray that they don't see me when I'm alone you come through can't explain how much I need you ooo when everything is not right you make me feel okay everything is not right is what it feels like you say keep me away from all these people keep me away but let me look through the peep hole

A rabbit ran by and I watched it go As I heard you cry I "I don't know" I bit my lip and thought real hard I fought the rip but things fall apart You told me a story once upon a time happy ever after you dropped that line and all of these endings have just begun the words you've been bending as the rabbit runs as the rabbit runs Millipede inching across the grass who would have know it would go this fast say something about it and you laugh but I should have known it would never last You told me a story once upon a time happy ever after you dropped that line and all of these endings have just begun the words you've been bending as the rabbit runs as the rabbit runs as the rabbit runs as the rabbit runs Rabbit's out of sight now you're out of mind little bit's of information you wished I would not find tell me you are sorry tell me a million more I will not sympathize You told me a story once upon a time happy ever after you dropped that line and all of these endings have just begun the words you've been bending as the rabbit runs

You're all gone it's over now but that's too much to think about nothing works and nothing's good oh it all hurts when nothing should and I'm just fine why wouldn't I be oh almost nine don't cry for me And little girl with the broken grave you left this world no one thought to save and where's this world I have no name your eyes are shut oh what a shame
5.
Everyone's wishing I'll turn up missing now yeah everyone's hoping I will be broken down say "you are the things you leave" but you're life's not just to grieve so sit back and let it be or you can just keep hating me Everyone's dreaming I'll take the weekend off seemed really friendly but now and then he lost but your life will come between you're first and final dream not an everlasting thing so don't say what you don't mean Hard to receive it but I believe it though if I can take it then I can make it so if you're feeling's feeling sour as you take your final scour try an find your finest hour without me Everyone's wishing I'll turn up missing though

4 Blue Eyes 04:23
Move your head a little closer to mine stuck in the middle oh give me a sign put out the pillar of smoke in your hand my mind's a killer I'm just trying to understand Where am I going? I don't know where I began in fact the only thing I'm knowing, I just wanna be your man Feeling grows you say your back's against the wall but lord knows I would never let you fall don't worry darling it really aint no use with all this crawling, might leave a bruise I don't know what to do, I complicated things for you and I lost track of what to say, to think I promised I'd behave

I feel so tired really losing my mind and these thoughts which I'm required are the last of their kind and I really don't know who I am and I could be something but I don'e feel like I can oh am I dreaming cause you've got me under your spell or are you a demon cause you've put me through hell And I really don't know why you make me lose control and I wish I could say why I always slip away
11.
Flower Song 01:18
To catch you glancing upon my skin is to feel the dancing love again and as the spring brings flowers blooms for you my heart lovely resumes your sun gives out such loving rays to warm my breath on lovely days sweet air to fill my atmosphere to float all through me when you're near A bloom I see when on a hill though breezes flow stays standing still to find and keep and knowing fill my heart, and give and take my will What burning skies take my embrace not knowing why just saving face and lovely you and flowers known embrace the wind of which you're blown When my eyelids turn to dust and lashes are all filled with rust a breeze, a hope I wish to trust once I could but now I must
12.
I can't think of a better time than to spend my night with you take the seat next to me and we sill ride on through the dark to this theme park, away I may see you every day but I'm still not used to the way, I feel and I, might still want to say that I love you, and I may, but not now cause you are shattered and I am lost and I don't care, or so I thought and I don't care, or so I thought and maybe I will be just fine all I needed was a cool day in Florida to change my mind
13.
Lovely Bombs 02:19
Lovely bombs and the homes in which they're blown sending pieces into the unknown lovely minds keeping up with times bearing the control lovely world it's not just for you lovely place filled with the lovely times filled with the lovely world filled upon you where did you find your heart where did you start lovely word it is the truth where are you where are you lovely bombs they tear your home apart they tore my home apart lovely eyes don't take control don't take control lovely eyes - (I fell into a cymbal here)

Small Fry 03:48
I fight my eyes from falling shut your sweet surprise don't mean as much I see myself in broken form to be someone else to be so much more but where do I go from here I'm driving but I've forgotten how to steer oh where is this coming from and who will I become and you control my moves so could you see me through cause this place has really taken it's toll all my steps traced with your control and I don't like it either no not at all so put down that receiver so I can drop this call oh where is this coming from and who will I become oh where is this coming from and who will I become
15.
I've fought my eyes from falling shut as I stare into yours and when I look at my life like I must I just wish I saw you more you tell me whatever you need to I will always give my ear and I'll tell you whenever I need to let's just hope I stay unclear I see your smile and I feel so rich when will my eyes fly from my head and steer me kindly from my mess and all the things I've left unsaid but maybe that's for the best and all the things I've accidentally said and all the things I've let slip cause when I close my eyes I miss the lights that I knew to think I missed missing things too but god I miss you
16.
Something in everything that she does draws me nearer and nearer to her the image of her perfect smile urges me to press redial and every morning when I see her face I can't believe how my heart does race oh and when she looks back at me time does stop yeah watch it freeze And I'm done trying to pretend that I don't care whether or not I see you again and now I know I don't have to hide oh how I wish I would have tried and now that I know I have nothing to fear darling I would redo the whole year and how I wish I would have tried oh cause love I see you when I close my eyes la la la And now my dear that I have nothing to fear I hope you hear I've wanted to know the whole year and your eyes how i get lost inside but I am fine to stay the night ohh my love now I have become just another one to you but oh my dear now that I have nothing to fear I will tell you how I've felt for the whole year la la la
17.
I love you dearly yes I do clearly so let me tag along day time and nighttime never the right time tell me that it's all wrong you say you're feeling nothing revealing I wish you'd let it show I sit there waiting silently hating all the things I don't know but give me a moment I know I've shown it it's been there all along daily and nightly ever so slightly feeling that it's all wrong waiting to hear back wanting my dear back worried that you're all gone so I keep my distance just in this instance it's all I could have done but I love you dearly yes I do clearly you are where I belong say I will be true cause when I am with you I know that nothing's wrong
18.
You just rest your curly head now it's time for you to go to bed you can close your tired eyes I'll sit here and sing you all the lullabies I know everything you needed to say today I know you've said now all that you have left to do is rest, your curly head And even when you go to sleep your sweetest dreams could never be too sweet you can calm your working mind I promise you that all will be just fine everything you needed to say today I know you've said now all that you have left to do is rest, your curly head

about

A series of Lullaby and goodbye songs. This whole album was inspired by the song "Ava's Lullaby", one which I wrote a year ago for my little cousin Ava. A song which originally was going to appear on my debut album "The World Inside Your Name", it didn't. I decided, let me work on making it better and give it it's own album so as to not group it in with all the others. So here is Lullagoodbyes, obviously some of them are more vaguely lullabies or goodbye songs, but I think the real thing here is they aren't all girls names, so it's a start. Enjoy.
