so good so far

I lead a solitary life, it’s pretty nice
Dinner for one, nothing to do but sit and write, it’s pretty nice
Orders of fries and Miller Lites, pretty nice
Organized rooms and pretty lights, pretty nice
It feels so good so far
Yeah it feels so good so far
Then you get in my car
And now I’m driving up the five in the dead of night
Reading chapters of my life that I’ve yet to write, I’m terrified
The darker it grows, the faster I drive
Taking my soul for a ride, I guess I’m alive
I got a feeling this ain’t leaving
i got a feeling
Cause it feels so good so far
Yeah it feels so good so far

coffee at sunset

Where there is air, there’s my love
Coffee at sunset, my love
Catholic parents running late
Right up the stairs, no rush, we can wait
Where there is air, there’s my love
Cookies and napkins, my love
Stop at the statue, the virgin in white
Breathe in her silence; take in her light
Where there is air, there’s my love
Atheists stare at my love
Unearthly blessing, a walk around the block
Verses from heaven in asphalt and chalk
Sure I’m scared
I’m skipping stairs, love

high sea

Everywhere I go now, I see pictures of me
Every word I write down becomes a hot commodity
I’m so high, can’t you see?
I’m so high, I’m at sea
Eat what they serve you, darling, and clean your plate
Got what I wanted; gee, ain’t that great?
Now I’m so high, can’t you see?
I’m so high, I’m at sea
If you want me to, I’ll bleed
To give the people what they need
You sing my anthem, I’ll take a knee
I liked it better living in obscurity
Now I’m so high, I can’t see
I’m so high I’m at sea
I’m so high I’m at sea
I’m so high I’m at sea
