Howlelujah!

Wayward the bark and lay like a scene
(brauw!!)
Does it grow like a bong
does it play like a dream?
How long it's been since it's been what it seems
(rawr)
Does it grow like a bed,
does it bend like a tree?
(meow!)
How it sings (meeow!)
MEOW
Has it in the dark of wind
HOWLELUJAH
Has it ever seen the wind?
HOWLELUJAH

Been looking for the answer where it's always been
the heavy hanging fruit on the lowest limb
pluck it off and let the juice run down my chin
Looking for the answer where it's always been
Been looking for the answer where it's always been
the bottom of the bottle at a long days end
drink it up until I get a boozy grin
Looking for the answer where it's always been
Cuz I don't know which way is up
Til I knock a couple down
I've been looking for the answer where it's always been
glide into the bedroom with my lady friend
make a mess and let the sheets stay where they land
Looking for the answer where it's always been
But now I know it ain't enough
With all that's going down
What I'm trying to say is the old familiar ways
Got a power that runs so deep
It isn't very wise to close my tired eyes and sleep
The world has gone astray, trying to crucify the babe
that I raised in love to keep
All I wanna do is wallow in the blues
and weep
But I gotta doom the haze of death
with a long defiant breath of peace
So I'll keep looking for the answer where it's always been
the kindness of a stranger and a helping hand
the way I earn my dollar and the way it's spent
Looking for the answer where it's always been
Keep looking for the answer where it's always been
hallelujah hollering and clasping hands
the beauty of the colors and the way they all blend
Looking for the answer where it's always been
Where it's always been

Hey O!

Hey O, remember all the songs
we wrote when we were o so young
and our hearts were wild and strong?
Hey O, I'm starting to forget
I'm struggling to find the words and chords
Can you show me how they went
before they're gone?
Hey O!
Hey O I'm happy to have been
knowing you for o so long
I'm proud to call you my friend
Hey O remember all the times
we sat out in the backyard talking about
the way we'd live our lives?
Well here we are!
Hey O!
Hey O!

I Don't Know

I don’t know
where all this love will go
I never will,
I’ll never want
I’ll never go into a soul
I never will
I never want
To go
I don’t know
where all this love will go
I never will
I’ll never want
to take hold
of the key
But I will
I’ll hit a wall
and get a hold of the key
and let go
But I don’t know where all this love will go
I never will
I'll never want
to leave my home
but in a beat
I’ll hit the street
but I don’t know
where all this love will go

Hey Seedling (Demo)

Hey seedling does your branch
become the bones?
The window's lighting the way
Hey we got a thing to say about the dew
the window's lighting all the way
Hey we gotta wave the bones
and loving waving wing
Wait we lay down in the highest hole
the window doesn't blow
open wide and breathe
in the breeze
Don't be whispering in the dark
The creature laying in the fog
may grow to be winderful
may glide the widow's summer shawl
Hey seedling don't you grow at all?
date the beadling (?) winter's song
this all becomes a wilder dream
Hey seedling do you catapult like bronze
bare, and silently?

Hey, when the want is long and fired
rock away your opening
Say what it is to understand
the rock and roll appearing, right and wrong
appearing free
Wayward is on the war of a fabled rock
in winters lovely wing
Hey, everybody's understanding
what it is to see the thing
I never want to see
So hey, what the wind is?
Walk aloud
and rock away the winter's sleep
Say what it is to understand the body
and the body's beat
Hey, everything is managing to turn
mirages into steam
upon the highest peak
Great, there's another thought
I feel
I never knew but couldn't speak:
"Oh hey"

Wooden Eye

Do what you want there’s no God
in this basement
Wooden eye
We will align
in the heart
of this moment
Wooden eye
You’re still alive don’t you
suffer this moment
Wooden eye
Do what you will there’s no
haunt in the basement
Wooden eye
What could you prove
there’s no God in this moment
Wooden eye
Lose what you will
there’s no loss in this moment
Wooden eye
Wooden eye
