The Farmer 03:12
Hands Built for the farm Mop up the floor Of a burger joint Sacrifice so his Son would have a better life He works for his family He works for his wife He works for a paycheck But all that he makes Will never replace The farm that he sold so his Son would have a better life

Daisy 02:25
Daisy You are my eyes when I’m blind You are my smile when I find The sun won’t rise without you Daisy You are the air in my lungs You are the tip of my tongue When words won’t speak without you It’s an awful lot to process But it’s just as much to say I know that it’s not there yet But I’ll always try to make it And I hope it will be...

The Dreamer 03:00
The moon and its sacred halo Look brighter through daydream eyes A spirit between the craters A love on the unseen side Everlasting dream In tune with the clouds around him Rehearsing his romance score So youthfully optimistic Above and below the clouds In and out of sleep

She ran from his fate But the doctor was right At the dawn of twilight An end to a life began As he falls the darkness walls him In his mind he’s all alone Silent flakes of snow Drift from heaven’s pale glow In the span of a heartbeat Millions spill down to one As he falls the stillness calls him In his mind he’s all alone
