Wishes and Demands
2013

Video

over at the underpass we’ll meet
drowning out our plans with noise from street
hidden from the planes
it’s just a normal morning

gotta keep your secret so secure
not safe to think things anymore
tattooed on these hands
final wishes and demands

cause anyone can break down
from laws and god, lost love and not living
world round you know
but i’m feeling
heartache can bring us together
and we won’t stand alone

i struggle with the truths to tell my kids
wonder when its all appropriate
when i was their age
would I dive into dark water

wonder if you trust the crossing guard
to keep you safe from speeding cars
what if she’s on the take
and flips that sign too late

cause anyone can break down
from laws and god
lost love and not living
world round you know
but i’m feeling
some day a dam(n) will/we’ll start giving
and we won’t float alone

i struggle with the truths to tell my kids
wonder when its all appropriate
when i was their age
would I dive into black water?
