Roses Are Dead

2/14/2021

1. Ii’ve been thinking ‘bout roses
one of nature’s designs
how they don’t stick their noses
in the business of dying
what I suppose is
when they fall from the vine
they’re just making room
for more things to bloom
when it’s their time

if roses are dead
and people die too
don’t worry your head
they’re just something new
the petals will shed i
t’s just what they do
only to wither
so they can deliver
life back to you

i’ve been thinking ‘bout thorns
how they’re sharp in your hands
how they give off a warning
how they state their demands
and the opinion i’m forming
i hope you understand
that pain’s just a part
of healing your heart
it’s all going to plan

is the weight of the world wreaking its havoc
is the state of affairs so scary it hurts
is that venomous voice in your head automatic
just letting you have it
making you feel like dirt

baby you're the damn grand canyon
baby you're a big great lake
you got that majesty, that beauty you can see from outer space
all those tall sequoias
they didn't grow in just one day
you know a landmark kind of life takes time
and time is on the way
time is on the way
carving marvels out of clay
yeah time is on the way

is the hardest part of your day in the morning
turn on your phone, feel alone, and lament
does the pressure you feel steal your breath without warning
feel that furrowed brow forming
making you feel irrelevant

baby you're the damn grand canyon
baby you're a big great lake
you got that majesty, that beauty you can see from outer space
all those tall sequoias they didn't grow in just one day
you know a landmark kind of life takes time
and time is on the way time is on the way
carving marvels out of clay
yeah time is on the way
time is on the way
coming round to save the day
so slow down, let it pave the way
yeah time is on the way

When that Idiot Wind Starts to Blow

i've had enough of you
i've had enough of you
i sure wish your mouth came with some glue
cause i've had enough of you

it's not what you say but the way that you state it
it's not what you serve up but the way that you plate it
i'm already fed up 'fore i see the menu
yes i've had enough of you

you're like a book i can't read
you're like a book i can't read
the day i put you down was the day i was freed
yeah you're like a book i can't read

each word so much worse than the last
i curse every page and skim past
all this stuff, it's just fluff, a marshmallow stampede
yeah you're like a book i can't read

i concur with your scorn for my cynical ways
it's a lazy and boring disguise
but the soapbox you stand on takes up too much space
and it's taking a toll on the roll on my eyes

when that idiot wind starts to blow
when that idiot wind starts to blow
i always take it as my cue to go
when that idiot wind starts to blow

i don't like to watch when the emperor streaks
or the way that the breath of a bragging man reeks
i'm covering my eyes i'm plugging my nose when that idiot wind starts to blow
yeah, i always take it as my cue to go when that idiot wind starts to blow

breathe it all in let it all out
give it all up just let it go
take a pause babe, just because babe
no need to worry cause we know

the u-n-i in the universe
won't ever fade so
let's lay here in the sunlight
til the sunlight turns to shade

the energy in you and me
ain't ever going to no grave
count your blessings, make a mess then
learn your lessons, your souls are saved
