I’m counting sheep they’re endless
While tossing in this summer heat
Insomniatic introspection
Lying naked in sweaty sheets
I can’t yet see the correlation
but I felt the déjà vu
I’ve experienced all before
But it’s much different with you
You know me inside and out
You know what makes me tick
I’m scared to death of what that means
More scared it’s worth the risk
Drunk, stoned and dripping sweat
reposado laced regrets
wandering the neighborhood
echoing these old laments
I feel I may never sleep again
but at least I’ll close my eyes
I’ve taught myself to count so high
I’ll count until I die
I wish I could control the weather
It wouldn’t so fucking hot anymore
I wish I could control this racing mind
without missing a beat I bet I could count forever
I’m still counting sheep their endless

You and I exist in harmonic resonance
high frequency vibrations can you feel them?
Impossibly rhythmatic, so perfectly romantic
Almost inaudible little songs, can you hear them?
I never did until now,
opened up my heart and heard the sounds
If we stop moving then everything we know will fall apart
so strum my strings I’ll sing your song
we’ll use the sound waves to keep ourselves alive and in love
and go on and on and on
I think if you looked real close with a gigantic microscope
Looked under our skin past the blood, carbon, to the molecules
you would see that you and I are both made up of zeros and ones
Built to be the perfect simulation of what it means to be in love
created by someone in another dimension
we can’t even prove exists
If they unplug us then everything we know will fall apart
so strum my strings I’ll sing your song
we’ll use the sound waves to stay alive and stay in love
and go on and on and on
this strange thing happened when we met
I started feeling the speed of the earth traveling through space
and damn was it fast
but your love was my gravity
it held me down
and still holds me down...

The wind and snow
dance around this frozen lake
many silent miles from anywhere
I think I've found my escape
Sometimes I get to thinking
and that ain't safe
because that old life is addicting
if you still have faith
now I'm laying on the hood of this old truck
It's the only thing left that's still warm
When you’re memory fades I’ll be heading home
I can still remember the final exhale of your last breathe
I left you lying there dying in the snow
You said “move on you gotta go, or it will get you too”
Tapping a finger to the rhythm of my heartbeat
I think I finally found Something that we all seek
Peace and Quiet

You were just about to touch me
when I woke up in an unfamiliar room
soaked in sweat, half erect and needing you
confused I reached out for you
and even called your name
before I realized where I am and you’re not here
tonight my mind just won't shut off
and my body's breaking down
Somehow I made last winter last all year
losing track of time is getting easier
And then I opened my eyes and it's summer
and I’m further from you
Yesterday I woke up on a train
that I don’t remember getting on
or where it's heading to
I emptied my coat pockets
in search of something familiar
But only found an old photo of you
Sometimes I lose weeks at a time
they all just blur together
I’ll keep dosing myself
Just to dream and see you
still waiting for your touch

The only optimism I ever had was knowing that I was never gonna feel like this again
but here I am choked up and lost and spinning and lying to myself
When did it become 3am I’ve been wandering through this rainy night alone
with a melody in my head that I won’t remember when I get home
Oh this city used to feel so big,
now I’m feeling claustrophobic
and I just gotta get out
As excuses dribble off of my tongue rain and sweat have soaked me right down to the bone
As I hang up my coat I notice the umbrella that I always seem to leave at home
behind the winter coats and storage bins you’ll find all my skeletons
you'll find all you need to know
So I just gotta get out
