Lie in my room by myself I take a moment to collect up Breathe out all of the stress 'cause My body tight, with fight or flight responses to life It’s buried deep in the depths of our biological story We was running from predators Found safety together and made fire but I never studied that much I’m just a product of television commercials for drugs With side effects plus the blood of my family tree Mixed with socialized fun at these schools with low funds Then consider the different skin colors and privilege Politicians all bickering kids puffing on cigarettes Breathe in and back out News pushing that ignorance Overdose and addiction, we’re so sick Breathe in and back out Looking for some significance When it’s all so ridiculous, what’s this? Breathe in and back out Don’t forget your magnificence You are one of kind it’s so wild Breathe in and back out Finally catching my breath Maybe crack a little smile But meanwhile It’s bills stacking up, ex-roomie tryna duck on 'em Homie's car totaled, insurance is just sluffin on ‘em Tryna construct but these tests keep coming on strong Find my breath like a monk and turn it into a song The process is tough to maintain When it’s just one thing right after another Sometimes the body needs rest Like a friend needs a hand Like we all need each other Good songs needs a band, ya, So breathe in and back out News pushing that ignorance Overdose and addiction we’re so sick Breathe in and back out Looking for some significance When it’s all so ridiculous, what’s this? Breathe in and back out Don’t forget you’re magnificent You are one of kind it’s so wild Breathe in and back out Finally catching my breath Maybe crack a little smile

Get stressed out on my own accord Strung out on my phone cord Charging my debit card Gave up all my credit cards I’m payin' off debts Because tomorrow is never far Away from the present Came here with a message If only I could remember Write these songs in the summer Thinking bout my December though Just printed CDs, fell in love at the record store I find my own rhythm never fit with the metronomes But it’s all good We form patterns and habits Because they serve us well But then we grow and change Habits turn to ropes and chains Holding us back, keeping us small The world change if we do, if we could just evolve We could all see Beauty in the eye of the storm What are we trying to form From you and I As we all die in these wars Between people and planet While we buy in the stores Forgetting her pain is his pain It’s mine and it’s yours Together She told me we were probably here before Back in the 60s or just anytime The world really needed more love Recycle everything or change it This place can be different 'cause we’re here; lets rearrange it The work is on us, we cant expect it to be painless It’s worth it though, yo, I feel like everyone I know is gon' be famous Or more like everyone I know is something special Something unique, the healing that you seek is probably in the Beauty in the eye of the storm What are we trying to form From you and I As we all die in these wars Between people and planet While we buy in the stores Forgetting her pain is his pain It’s mine and it’s yours Together In the eye of the storm What are we trying to form From you and I As we all die in these wars Between people and planet While we buy in the stores Forgetting her pain is our pain It’s mine and it’s yours Together

Downstream, maybe I’ll see you in a while With my crooked nose and the usual smile It’s the same it’s the style It’s the flames of the fire we made At least I guess it kept us warm in this rain Been a minute, ya, it’s been a minute Just said goodbye already thinkin' how we spent the minutes Opened up and bent the limits Broke in love, expensive living We did it differently, duh, 'cause this was ours Nobody stenciling it You opened up your heart I put my pencil in it Someday I’ll realize how sorry I should be Took for granted how you kept my tooth brush in that cup Someday you’ll probly find a crush becomes love And I’ll be crushed but it’s life I made choices, I tried not to be poisonous Lied to myself, but you did the same too I’m still to blame, but we misread each other Both so convinced that our wish had came true Downstream, maybe I’ll see you in a while With your sly jokes And your hooligan smile It’s the same it’s the style It’s the flames of the fire we made At least I guess it kept us warm in this rain Look I treated our time shared as sacred still For whatever it’s worth, it's worth I’m learning through my mistakes just gotta make some still It’s not what you deserved, deserved But c’mon, we knew we might not be compatible Two young humans tryna make it in Seattle So grateful for moments when you helped me through my shadows After records, when I fell apart, you put me back together! Left me in your bed woke up, made a little breakfast Maybe I was reckless or just stupid disconnected Didn’t think we could be partners with my musical direction But as I write about it now feel like gave up on perfection I’m sorry my love moves many directions Gave you exactly what I had to give True to myself I’m a man who makes connections deep For some reason that’s the adjective Downstream, maybe I’ll see you in a while With my crooked nose and the usual smile It’s the same it’s the style It’s the flames of the fire we made At least I guess it kept us warm in this rain

Winterized, bitter nights, beginners mind Simplify, stepping back to synthesize Different moments and memories making meaning If you listen close I’m telling you everything I believe in myself in the music in my senses Humans and connection, holiness is friendship We keep each other going Through the growing pains and tensions Or just bowling Simon's birthday after work Different dimensions of nice When we warm up Melting the ice (the ice) When that snow falls down on your life (on your life) When the roads all blocked And your soul's all lost Still together here isn’t it nice? (Nice) When the sun comes melting the ice (the ice) All that snow piled up on your life (on your life) When the road's all thawed And your soul's alright 'Cause together we make all of it Nice to see you again It’s been a minute or three Been starting fires Staying up late Winter time heat When it’s work time, go When it’s dinner time, eat When the world's this cold Me and you turn we Mix together like mirepoix Cheer up our spirits God Give me the lyrics mom I learned to be fearless on This journey’s a mirror y’all I never seen clearer all we Need is right here and Isn’t it nice? When we warm up Melting the ice (the ice) When that snow falls down on your life (on your life) When the roads all blocked And your soul's all lost Still together we make all of it nice? (Nice) When the sun comes melting the ice (the ice) All that snow piled up on your life (on your life) When the roads all thawed And your soul's alright 'Cause together here isn't it nice? Isn’t it nice? When we warm up melting the ice And that snow piled up on your life When the road's all blocked And your soul's all lost still together Here isn’t it nice?

It’s falling back into love, yah It’s all happening quick It’s all laughing and crying It’s kinda crazy to trust in Another person but Doing it on the daily Makes the world less crazy Look I’m adamant Adam and Eve might have been stuck in a dream But our humanity is worth more than an apple Computers captured a moment Human chapters keep going Keep it movin' keep it flowin' melt the ice now... It starts to warm up life making more sense Like right after a hug Like the top of a hike Lookin' down from the heights (whew) Reminds you how small All your problems like bugs (ew) All the drama so silly It probly won’t kill me To be honest I’m really only conscious of the Moments passing me by Sensations of flyin' Been taking my time Been doin' this right Been writing my wrongs One day at a rhyme Been icing these songs With Jonny Nice on the beat Cooking rice for the soup Take a second to breathe Reconnect to my roots by the sea side Back when I was knee high Swinging down at Alki Mom pushin' three of us Never had too much but We never needed much For some reason always seeking the meaning of it Always deep in my dreaming, love This chance to be in my feelings, Exist underneath all the ceilings And skies and trees change vibrantly Played hide and seek and skating by the sea, uh Planting seeds for the summer and fall Before another long winter Come freezing our souls up Sunshine sorta feel like a gold rush Round here feel the light come near And we start to warm up Life making more sense like right after a hug Like the top of a hike Looking down from the heights Remind you how small all your problems when It’s falling back into love, yah It’s all happening quick It’s all laughing and crying It’s kinda crazy to trust in Another person but doing it on the daily Makes the world less dangerous For us, for me and you For all the people out there Just doin' what people do Eating sleeping and laughing Growing and learning who we are Lookin' up at the stars It’s falling back into love, yah It’s all happening quick It’s all laughing and crying It’s kinda crazy to trust in Another person but doing it on the daily Makes the world less crazy Yah yah Doin' it on the daily make the world less crazy Doin' it on the daily make the world less crazy (It's falling back into love) Man it's been a good lil' ride with this Thaw EP As we merge our realities from Fall into winter into spring into summer And keep this keep this thing rolling And rolling again like hunger cycles as we eat And we fill ourselves up and then we deplete And then we reel it back and Then we connect to the beat (so sweet) We got Jonny Nice going crazy on the keys And that's just a piece of all these and all this And it's from me to you To see what you might do And see where we might go If we try to know What it's like when It's falling back into love, yah It’s all happening quick It’s all laughing and crying It’s kinda crazy to trust in Another person but doing it on the daily Makes the world less crazy

Little room in a big town Step out we could run 'round Dumplings and a cocktail Subway headin' uptown Sub bass knockin' walls down Love, hate, what's it all about? Life change, let it all out Lights low, pull the shades down Coulda been but it’s all so different Up top seen 'cross the distant Towers and so many hours I just been walking with you Tangled our hearts get confused We keep each other amused Focused on keeping it true But it’s so fun here with you Little room in a big town Step out we could run 'round Dumplings and a cocktail Subway headin' uptown Sub bass knockin' walls down Love, hate, what's it all about? Life change, let it all out Lights low, pull the shades down I’m tryna say less Time's been a mess Mind in a bind sometimes upset Heart break lies inside us all Even though for the most part We kept distance between us for balance We still compete with our demons Jealousy reach with her talons Always secretly scheming But we dodge that Dip through the city on the E train Lost track of time In the middle of a rhyme Take a little space We could chisel out a day somewhere In a place like this with your make-up Hair in a top bun what can we take from this... A little love in the taste of a kiss Memories sweet don’t waste 'em kid, it's a Big town Step out we could run 'round Dumplings and a cocktail Subway headin' uptown Sub bass knockin' walls down Love, hate, what's it all about? Life change, let it all out Lights low, pull the shades down But why’s it gotta be such a vibe When you’re with me we’re alive Different dreams but the drive Seems to be in tune Is it just something inside of Both me and you This kinda city ignites us The way that it lights up The way that it lights up The way that it lights up The way that it lights up
