You can find comfort anywhere
And if you can you should
'Cause even something painful
Can be one part bad and one part good
Like how summer school becomes
An unexpected way to make friends
But I can understand how
That might not make sense
It’s the kind of thing that sits in your mind
Like that one un-blurry snapshot
It’ll bring you back from drifting
By making you slack jawed
Like burning your hand hurts
But makes you feel anything at all
I think about how Randy Johnson
Made a bird explode with a fastball
If it had been a slider
Might've missed its wing
We’d have one more mourning dove
One fewer unbelievable thing
But that game meant nothing
No legacy but the casualty
And it sticks in my memory
It just somehow always stayed with me
And he never saw it coming
Nobody did
But now millions have seen it
It’s right up there on the internet
And Randy’s thrown a perfect game
He’s in the Hall of Fame
But he killed a bird one time
And nothing was ever the same
It’s the kind of thing that sits in your mind
Like that one un-blurry snapshot
It’ll bring you back from drifting
By making you slack jawed
Like burning your hand hurts
But makes you feel anything at all
I think about how Randy Johnson
Made a bird explode
It was so cool

I wanna own a sword some day
I’m gonna make it with my hands
Two-handing my own blade
I’m gonna swing it as hard as I can
There’s too much pressure pushing in to see
If you sense a storm coming it might just be me
I’m gonna start refusing to live in this position
There’ll be no flowers blooming under this condition
And I’ll get hot and hammered, annealing into healing
Get ground down and hardened from tempering the feeling
I wanna own a sword some day
I’m gonna make it with my hands
Two-handing my own blade
I’m gonna swing it as hard as I can
I’ll move into a castle for a kiss
If they treat us like monsters I guess that’s where we’ll live
Push us to the edges of the map
We stepped out of their boxes and they demonized us back
If you can’t look at me anyway I might as well become Medusa
No confusion or substitution, I won’t be losing anymore
I wanna own a sword some day
I’m gonna make it with my hands
Two-handing my own blade
I’m gonna swing it as hard as I can
I wanna own a sword some day
I’m gonna make it with my hands
Two-handing my own blade
I’m gonna swing it as hard as I can
When I own a some day
I will hold it up with my two hands
I won’t be laid to waste
Nobody’s stronger than I am
And if you think you’re bigger than me
And you try to come towards
You might be stronger than just me
But you’re not stronger than me and a sword
I'm gonna own a sword some day
I’m gonna make it with my own two hands
Two-handing my own blade
I’m gonna swing it as hard as I can
When I own a some day
I will hold it up with my two hands
I won’t be laid to waste
Nobody’s stronger than I am

Follow Me On My Mind

"Meet me in the lobby"
You say you'll come to get me in a minute
I left a bit abruptly last time
Now you're gonna make me come and get it
Our first time alone
Not two-timing
Treat me like a hobby
You really meant to do me when it's fitting
Knit us both together 'til you miss a stitch
And then got to unspin it
Our first time alone
Not two-timing
Those someday situations
Can still come around
Those someday situations
Will sit you down
And say "Was it worth it, the wait?"
Those someday situations
Can still come around
Those someday situations
Will sit you down
And say "Was it worth it, the wait?"
You follow me on my mind
We're finally at our sign
It feels like I'm free
The past nights were killing me
Your body takes time
And that's what you've given me:
Time, time
Your body takes time
And that's what you've given me:
Time

Past The Point

It can take so long to realize
When the gap is small in family ties
What you didn't say can prove to be
The hard-hitter in the eulogy
If you know it, feel it, say it
It'll become integrated
As casual as "hi"
Preceding your goodbyes
Yeah I love you
And I'll tell you now while you can still understand
Yeah I love you
And I'll tell you before you're past the point that you can't
If it drives you apart
Though you feel it in your heart
Hold on to it for a friend
Just in case they ever want it again
Yeah I love you
And I'll tell you now while you can still understand
Yeah I love you
And I'll tell you before you're past the point that you can't
Yeah I love you
And I'll tell you now while you can still understand
Yeah I love you
And I'll tell you before you're past the point
Don't be scared to admit it
I mean, it's scarier to miss it
Feel it behind your eyes
Lay on the beach and cry
Yeah I love you
And I'll tell you now while you can still understand
Yeah I love you
And I'll tell you before you're past the point that you can't
Yeah I love you
And I'll tell you now while you can still understand
Yeah I love you
And I'll tell you before you're past the point
