I had a dream that I was headed down to Joshua Tree first it was cool and it was heavy, yeah it was all the things but then I died my garden was inside of here I cannot miss you but I think I will forget you because it's one too many times it's been a thousand times I'm not a liar but I know I can see through myself and I've died a hundred times I've died too many times in here You were like an anchor on the fence guiding my way around you like the government you were so much bigger than the rest with a big hole inside you and a Flowerbed you were like a beacon to the west telling my when to turn into the desolate now you're much too far for me to see might as well close all of the gates and leave

In The Dark 04:06
It's summertime you and I are so divine a light flickers on the porch I walk into the street my feet, they hurt so bad my shoes are on my hands I'm way too young, baby to be feeling this way I'm careful about the girls I know but you snuck right in when I was feeling low everything is easier in the dark in the dark is this love? this is not love, if it was is this love? this is not love, if it was if it was You're beautiful it's so divine you're pouring me a glass of wine I'll cut the tension with a knife and serve it on a friend of mine I'm careful about the girls I know but you snuck right in when I was feeling low everything is easier in the dark in the dark is this love? this is not love, if it was is this love? this is not love, if it was if it was if this was love I wouldn't feel this way that you are gonna stray

What is it good for just to not take the blame? She's home, and only lonely when they say my name. My head is hanging heavy, aloof through the breeze, like the anchor of her words when equivocal tongues speak.

Goldenheart 03:21
Everybody's got a goldenheart they keep locked up in the dark everybody says it's there but nobody shows it and ever since I was the weaker one they took me out of the sun they tied me to a chair with tiny explosives I'll never go back to where I'm not wanted I know that you think I'm dead but I'm still here I'm still here I'm still here Everybody's got another side they keep locked up in the dark they don't believe it's true even when they show it and if I'm crazy I'm just a maze you'll keep locked up in the dark and like a child I'l be amazed if you ever show it I'll never go back to where I'm not wanted I know that you think I'm dead but I'm still here I'm still here I hope that you can live with this Everybody's got their goldenheart mine is saying you're just beginning to start I'll never go back to where I'm not wanted I know that you think I'm dead but I'm still here I'm still here I'm still here I'm still here I'm still here Everybody's got a goldenheart they keep locked up in the dark everybody says its there but nobody shows it

I passed your window I fear the tide brings you closer to me even though you’re not here I passed your window again to see inside it to see you so clear It never wakes you up you’re a ghost to me and the morning will come It never wakes you up you stay sound asleep and you disappear agelessly I can see you appear my eye is the moon and I sleep under the ocean light I walk on the pier to see inside it to see you so clear I guess you could call it a sinister party for one I guess you could It never wakes you up You’re a ghost to me and the morning will come It never wakes you up you stay sound asleep and you disappear agelessly
