4 Feet Apart

I met a girl on the other side of the railroad tracks
We were stood 4 feet apart but that distance didn't lack electricity
Running between her and me
We walked for miles oh but we never crossed that line
And though every now and then a train would come
Running to time through breaking up our path
We were still 4 feet apart
Lines running straight keep everything in order
We know it's safe if we stay within our borders
But there comes a time when everyone must fall
We've travelled far and we have seen a lot of land
We're both following the same stars though I've never even held her hand
If it's meant to be I guess we'll have to wait and see
Lines running straight keep everything in order
We know it's safe when if we stay within our borders
But there comes a time when everyone must fall
Lines form a point if you look into the distance
But blind our view of the path of least resistance
If you look towards me you'll see what I see
We're only 4 feet apart

You call me too late

You always claimed you never wanted this
You moved away each time I tried to kiss you
But you need to know that I've gotta go
You call me too late
I would proclaim my love a thousand times
You would complain you'd never see it in my eyes
But you won't believe that I've gotta leave
You call me too late
I have been lonesome and blue
And I am happy now that you will be too
'Cause I've gotta go, you need to know
You call me too late
Now I am gone and we are far apart
I took back my love and left you with my empty heart
'Cause all of my words you never heard
You call me too late

When I was Ken Kesey

I'll meet you on the way to the airport
You've finished school and I leave in a few days
We'll buy some beers and talk till we get drunk
You'll call your boyfriend and tell him it's alright
But since you showered
I've been unclean with thoughts about you
We lie on your bed listening to teachers playing piano like Woody Allen
I hurt my feet on your pointed floor mat
You laugh at me and you cook some vegetables
But when you get close
I smell your body and it makes me want it
I'm gonna wash this girl out of my hair
Ignore the feeling if I'm hallucinating
And walking down the street with no clothes on
'Cause I'm not a planet and she is not the moon
But for a moment I had a true wife
Outside this world waiting for me
And for that moment you were my girlfriend
And we had a baby when I was Ken Kesey

Half Truths

I recall there was a day when you were called my lover
We agreed that you would stay until you found another
Now the time has come and I sit here dressed in stone
And though there's walls around it this heart has no home again
I've seen the pictures you have shown to all your friends and the ones we know
A puzzle solved as pieces fit into all the faces long ago
'Cause you had never looked at me the way you looked at them
And this just goes to show me I guess we were just friends after all
With all the lines I walked along and all the paths I kept to
I realise now I was a fool 'cause this weren't how to get to you
All the lies I told myself and all the truths I spun
Tricked me into thinking that you were the one for me
So go on now and dont look back and I won't look back either
Your image burnt into my eyes will not make me a liar
I may sometimes hold up a piece of mirror to my face
To see if I can still see a figure move away
