Image is a Window
01:32

Well it's true that image of a window, image as a window, an image is a window
What a relief,
What peace,
To see
Even in brief
Here we have contrast
Here we have a famous painter past
This but an honest portrait
Ah yes some photo real abstract
Wonderful world of pictures-
Art historical fixtures-
Imagine you were born in the 1500s
You might have even been one of them
Even 50 years ago,
Perhaps an iconic photo
Or a tricky method for building,
Use of digital media- thrilling

Funny To Think Back
01:58

Funny to think back to people on a different track
All that you got up to, all that drove you, all that you thought you knew
Yer face changing over, becoming strange to leaning on the car outside the bar, waiting for what? You do not know
You made a big move and then I did too
Now we're dreaming of a beach within our reach or a time we could be beside each other again
A moment to wonder what its all for and then just stepping on out the door
To simple see! To simply breathe! To simply smell! To be warmed by the sun or by someone else!
Why's it built that way?
Er like, How are you feeling today?
To wonder is not the answer baby but it sure can relieve some pain
About this course
All moved along by the same force
Like how so many can appreciate a horse while knowing it could really hurt you
But O the way it moves!!!

On Their Phones
01:52

-long petticoats
-holding each other around the waist skipping in a circle
-lay with their heads hanging off the stage tying hair into super high ponytails
-all looking through the window frame
-all looking through different window frames
-all facing the mirror the entire time by candle light
-on their phones letting you know it's just gonna be a second

Silly To Be So Sad
02:01
|
|||
|
Don't know how to feel about it
Not sure that there is any difference
I was thinking about taking a trip
But what would be the meaning of it
I was losing sleep
I guess I'm not completely at peace
With you being so far from me un uh
On another note
Isn't it silly to be so sad
It sure is hard to be glad about
Sleepin' alone
Sleeping without you
Movin' back home
Moving without you
On your own
I don't doubt that
You will be doing alright uh huh
On another note
Isn't it silly to be so sad

Got To Investigate
02:22
|

Hello my friends.
Can you help me?
I am coming to you from this giant new desk
I have one of my drawings here, it needs retitling
It's previous title allowed for an overall trivial reading
Can we figure something better?
It's a nondescript, round trip portrait,
Centrefold two realities of my personal life
Explored at a time when I was feeling a struggle, an inner divide
When faced with the potential of a totally other life
Grasping at the fewest hops to it
I've got to investigate
One day I walk in Prospect Park and the next I'm in my long held apartment block listening to the sophomore-over release
From a tried and true respected repeater
I've got to investigate
What did I see and what do I see now?

One Longs To Know
03:58
|
|||
|
One longs to know the truth of living, not so clear
You want to know how a singer's song cuts so deep
Wondering why one must feel pain
Wondering why a heart breaks
Thought of you both and I'm wishing you forward
Selfishly warming to the closeness of a time far away bye bye
Catching the corner of my eye on the corner of thine
I used to talk to my baby about the growing and unknowing
I would ask for the grace of mine so smart, self assured and understanding
My mother and step mother and best friend wonder what your plans are
An old pal here she is with your clear, concise answer
Meanwhile you are dying to leave the centre of your own
Won't you please help me to travel to another and wave hello like
Is there anything I can do to help you too? I'd like to do that for you.
If you're gonna make a change, maybe make a big one?
Wouldn't that be good, wouldn't that be right?
If you're gonna give it away, maybe give it all away?
Why on earth would you send back all of that crap?
I'm thinkin' if it's not yours then it's just trash.
Is that the truth? Well, the truth is bad.
Is that the truth? Well the truth is sad.

Styles Alive
02:35
|

Two grown women wearing jumpers,
Paint the store with extended rollers
Enjoy music for babies
In each following song the child is aging
Yesterday we were laughing about it
Today some sad mixed in with it
Stylish woman kicks the bucket
Stylish woman with a voice like a trumpet
Style's alive with that song on repeat
Style's alive through sisters grieving

There Was A Time
01:21
|
|||
|
There was a time I held you close and said I don't need anyone but you
A little foolish but it did feel true
Looking back on it now, things have changed
It's no surprise, ain't that the way?
But the pulling apart brings a new kind of pain
Are you comforted to know-
No matter where you go now,
I really did love you and need you a whole lot?
No time wasted, no idea what comes next
Everything in it's right place at the right time I guess
When I saw you, it was good to see and talk to you again, my friend
Last I saw you, it was good to see you and be near you again, my friend

Starting Over Anew
03:15
|
|||
|
Starting over anew would be easier if I still had you
It's still true, we decided it was the right thing to do
Dropping plates at this brand new job
If ever there was something to take you down a notch
Having nightmares about these nice new people I've met
Find a new way to write
Keep it simple and tight
Some people, they make it look so easy
I just can't say what feeds me
On this ride home from work,
No one in my time zone to call,
I guess I'll ride alone after all
Scan the stations for a feel-good song and I am singing along
Scan the stations for a feel-good track and I am singing it back
"You've got so much to be smiling for! What are you crying for?"
Just one drink each night
Do you think that would be alright?
Some people, they make it look so good
I just can't say that I should
Here I am though having that drink
Scan the stations for a feel-good song, singing along
Scan the stations for a feel-good track, singing it back

What Kind Of Love
02:58
|

What kinda love are you looking for?
What kinda love are you looking for?
Some kind of love of which you could really be sure
What kinda love are you looking for?
I hope you get what you want
Want you to get what you need
I need to get what I want to too
I hope to know what I need soon
Someone who knows you truly and deeply
That's a comfort in this world
Someone to hold you and think of you sweetly
Well that's a comfort in this world
So what kinda love are you looking for?
Something for a short while or forever more?
I thought I knew but no!
You cannot know what's in store
What kinda love are you looking for?
I guess you'd wanna be sure
Of who it is that you are
Maybe someone to reflect with you between the sun and the stars?
Someone to ask you meaningful questions
And laugh with everyday
Someone to challenge you in a loving way baby and to laugh with everyday

These Clowns
01:42
|

|
These girls, yeah, my girls
Where would I be without you in my world?
Rolling on the floor, laughing with you
Riding in a car, singing it true
We had five in the bed and plenty of room
If you're feeling all alone, I got you
These clowns, yeah, my clowns
Where would I be without you? I'd be down
What is this life without laughing with you?
What is this life without singing it true?
Crying on the phone and talking it through
If I'm feeling all alone, I got you
But if I've learned anything its that I don't know anything
And so I will try to treat you right from now on
These girls
My girls
