What Can I Do?

I look for words to say that I have none
I look for fixes for things I've never done
And I want you but I won't say that you're the one
I waste my days worrying 'bout days yet to come
I run away in hopes I will be followed
I turn my back hoping that you'd grab my collar
I try real hard to sound like I don't bother
Take what I can chew but not what I can swallow
What can I do? Your thoughts are all I think
What can I do? It's how an island sinks
What can I do?
It makes me so sad to think how I want you but
What can I do?
A name, a face, a stranger at the best
You fight the urge to run up and confess
Things that mean so much to someone who means less
You fight the feeling God don't stand by what he says
You look so mean when you turn your back on me
You smile so hard, to hide, but I can see
And I'm so see-through from the holes you put in me
Now if alone is what I want, alone is what I'll be

I Begin to Wonder

This town is killing me, it's bringing out faces I don't care to see
Few think to go, and fewer ever leave
Even sleeping in gets old and even mountain air gets harder to breathe
And I begin to wonder, am I cut out for life?
I begin to wonder, if we ever really try
I begin to wonder, if I will wonder til I die
This home, it used to breathe, it used to be the source of all peace and relief
Few ever say, and fewer seem to see
That we are calloused and we're cold and we are growing old of life in front of a tv

Ain't No Man

Be the kinda person I won’t be asking questions to know
Come with something to show
I’m learning how to be, I’m feeling how to feel alone
And I’ll be coming full grown
And ain’t no man gonna keep me away
Ain’t no man gonna make me stay
From Phoenix, Arizona to Nashville, Tennessee
I got places to be
Up North the coast of Portland down to Louisianne
I need to place my hands
And ain’t no man gonna keep me away
Ain’t no man gonna make me stay
I might leave you for mountains, leave you for the sea
But you could stick with me
You better leaver me for the highway, leave me for the road
If I can follow in tow
But ain’t no man gonna keep me away
Ain’t no man gonna make me stay
Be a rambling man
Be a tambourine man
Be a music man
Be in The Potter’s hands
And then ain’t no man gonna keep me away
Ain’t no man gonna make me stay
Ain’t no fault gonna drive me away
Ain’t no comfort gonna get me to stay
Ain’t not distance, ain’t no time
Ain’t no man gonna keep me from mine
I’m learning how to be, I’m feeling how to feel alone
And I’ll be coming full grown
From Seattle to Salinas, out to Muskogee
I got places to be
