Turn Around 01:49
Turn around, nothing to see here Blinders on, sight is unclear Blurred-out faces fall to the dark Turn around, here’s what to bring A windowed world with cracks like lightning Breakable if you need to escape Keep an eye on the dark While you’re leaning into the light Turn around, forget what you fear It’s not the time to fall into mirrors Let broken glass refract and bend the sight Keep an eye on the dark While you’re leaning into the light Turn around
2.
My mind’s made a mistake With you, it’s true I just don’t know what I’m supposed to do When you’re with me I think I see something It’s just not what you’re tryin to do But you got nothin to prove I just gotta make my mind see the truth My mind’s made of mistakes Always I wait To forget that I fell for you But you got nothin to prove I just gotta make my mind see the truth That you got nothing to prove But if me and you are nothing, tell me Why can’t I stop thinkin of you?

Look what the years done to ya Broken gears runnin out of time (Jumbled numbers) Forgot your fears, fell under Now you’re numb to the paradox (Jumbled numbers tumble forward) And when you come back later They’ll name a drink for your down times (Jumbled numbers) Well let those tears flow mister ‘Cause your emotions are not a crime (Jumbled numbers tumble forward)

Blueboy Gray 03:04
Blueboy gray, protect yr mind And you might find favor in the fall On advice he’d never taken He said, “leave it for the hollowed trees that I’m never calling home” Blueboy gray, the world’s alive Though time’s unkind, you can’t let it pass you by Some advice he’d never taken: Tell your secrets to the swallows Now he’s never coming home Some advice is better taken From the glassy lake where mirrored faces form a way back home

100 Ears (free) 01:59
If only 100 ears Are listening tonight If after 100 years We never burn out bright Can we keep reaching out With no end in sight?
6.
If you want it to grow in the springtime Let it all go, let it all go If you want it to glow in the sun’s light Let it all go, let it all go And if you don’t remember Yeah, if you still forget The whispering walls will tell ya Let it all go, let it all go

Crawling towards the 40th street sign Turn towards the trees Searchin for pieces of the world outside of the now Falling for the stories of actors Who played one of us Now they’re afterthoughts searching for spotlights out of the shade But the world keeps turnin While the actors are learnin new roles leaving us to decay Can the light lead the way when the shade still owns you? Come down, the lights show nothing Come down, the night’s just starting to Come down, the stars won’t follow you home
8.
With the arrogance of an afterthought You crawled into the walls inside my head, again And in reverence I see your heart And I know there’s no use when you start to dread, there’s no end But when the cold comes calling for you let it through Yeah when the cold comes calling for you, let your flowers bloom Because the queen of cold comes for everyone When you think it’s done, oh she’s just begun Yeah when the cold comes calling for you Well don’t you know that I will make sure you are not alone You’re not alone
9.
William watches the clouds’ shadows on the hillside Wonderin how the water stays up in the air William wants to know the patience of the pine trees How the needles greet the cold but never care Now he sits there in his desk chair staring blindly As the cursor blurs together with the words “Here’s 10 ways to tend to lonely hearts in late June” As the year begins to suffer everyone Nothing ever works right (He says with the past in his eyes) Nothing ever works right (He says with no sign of a fight) Nothing ever works right, oh (William) mistakes the breeze for speeding cars, questions his values (William) mistakes the breeze for speeding cars, oh

Turn Around 03:19
Turn around, nothing to see here Blinders on, sight is unclear Blurred-out faces fall to the dark Turn around, here’s what to bring A windowed world with cracks like lightning Breakable if you need to escape Keep an eye on the dark While you’re leaning into the light Turn around, forget what you fear It’s not the time to fall into mirrors Let broken glass refract and bend the sight Keep an eye on the dark While you’re leaning into the light And if this really is the end At least we’ve made it this far On bombed-out walls we’ll scratch our names in plaster while we search for Stained glass windows cracked before the fall Turn around
