Come and Go 02:38
Tell me can you believe how things just seem to come and go You said there’s a way to stop it, just have to find something to hold Fade in the sun is pouring through, and all your words rung so true Now everything is changing, I'm just trying to start up anew You can’t buy it, can’t buy this time back Where will we find ourselves? Now I’m feeling more like someone else And it’s been so long since I’ve felt at home Is it me or does time just fade away in a vapour of crumbling days I remember when walking wasn’t always walking away You can’t buy it, can’t buy this time back But you’ve just been too lost to relax Let go and you’ll laugh And we won’t fight about the things that we can’t We can’t change

Pixels 03:40
I still harbour the delusion that we'll be back Between quiet, yellow buildings walking free like it could always last Now our time is disconnected I wake up as you fall asleep And when I told you, I meant it But sometimes actions don't follow belief Now I only know your pixels You're coming through in wires over waves Now I only know your pixels But I guess it always ends up that way There's a sweet little melody and a chorus to take me back Because a life is a collection of all that has come to pass And it's true, and it's good. And the time was ours to spend A simple photograph will serve as proof that we surely happened Now I only know your pixels You're coming through in wires over waves Now I only know your pixels But I guess it always ends up that way I only know that we can’t go back I only know these photographs

Those years I still remember the old house Bonfires in the back Those days I hoped that we could always stay That something beautiful could last And then you're packing bags I can't sleep tonight There’s a quiet storm in me ‘cause I Always hoped our ships would meet in the night The past is wasted time And you're moving on and I’m still waiting for another wave to bring me back to shore Soon enough There were rings and vows and I was wishing you all the best But since then I can't escape the emptiness Bearing down on my chest But I could never tell you that I can't sleep tonight There’s a quiet storm in me ‘cause I Always hoped our ships would meet in the night The past is wasted time And you're moving on and I’m still waiting for another wave to bring me back to shore

Tomorrow may never know Where time starts, where time goes And if you think it's more than worry Then maybe you should start wandering home You've been up all night Can't stop this spinning Can't lose this fight But did it make you feel alive chasing Polaroids with wine? Some day you'll find There's no such thing as falling behind We might crawl We might fly But we always keep the same time What did you think you'd find Chasing polaroids with wine What did you think you'd get back?

Thanks to James Harding of Villainest for lending his ear when these songs had become too familiar to my own.

I also want to thank my wife for her endless support and helping me find time to finish up this album amidst our foray into parenthood.
