Do you belong to what you're hanging on to?
Are you caught in a loop?
What is wrong with you?
You keep making do

Have you given up on hope?
I could be your antidote
Are you lost in a state of anxiety?
Just let it be

Excuse me, please
I'm just so happy I could scream
Adjust your mindset, do the same
All that you lost will be regained

Never ever enough, it's never enough
Is it ever enough, when it's just enough?
If it's never enough, why do we hang up on love?
Enough is enough, never enough

Never ever enough, it's never enough
Is it ever enough, when it's just enough?
If it's never enough, why do we hang up on hope?
Enough is enough, never enough

Pure, we're pure as we're driven
But I know there's only one way to go
So dream, it's just human kindness
If we run and we hide it will find us, there's nowhere to go

Excuse me please
I'm just so happy I could scream
Adjust your mindset, do the same
All that you lost will be regained

Never ever enough, it's never enough
Is it ever enough, when it's just enough?
If it's never enough, why do we hang up on love?
Enough is enough, never enough

Never ever enough, it's never enough
Is it ever enough, when it's just enough?
If it's never enough, why do we hang up on love?
Enough is enough, never enough

I came forth to rest your fear
There to catch your falling tears
Begin and ending no more pretending
Try descending into me

When it comes to say goodbye
Say your final end desire
Well, enough is enough and youre hung up
Feel what you feel, baby

Never ever enough, it's never enough
Is it ever enough, when it's just enough?
If it's never enough, why do we hang up on love?
Enough is enough, never enough

Suffering. San Francisco. California. 1.22.2012.

We are so often the cause of our own misery. We pursue things and people even though we know in our heart of hearts that they cannot make us happy. We imagine that all our problems will be solved if we get a particular job or achieve a certain success - only to find that the things we desired so intensely are not so wonderful after all. The moment we acquire something, we start to worry about losing it. Much of our suffering comes from a thwarted sense of self.

Falling. San Francisco. California. 1.20.2012

I've fallen out of favor and I've fallen from grace
Fallen out of trees and I've fallen on my face
Fallen out of taxis, out of windows too
Fell in your opinion when I fell in love with you

Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh

Sometimes I wish for falling, wish for the release
Wish for falling through the air to give me some relief
Because falling's not the problem, when I'm falling I'm in peace
It's only when I hit the ground it causes all the grief

Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Whoa-oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh

This is a song for a scribbled-down name
And my love keeps writing again and again
This is a song for a scribbled-down name
And my love keeps writing again and again
And again and again and again and again
And again and again and again and again
And again and again and again and again
And again and again and again and again

I danced myself up, I drunk myself down
Found people to love left people to drown
I'm not scared to jump, I'm not scared to fall
If there was nowhere to land I woudn't be scared at all
At all
At all

Fall
Fall

Sometimes I wish for falling, wish for the release
Wish for falling through the air to give me some relief
Because falling's not the problem, when I'm falling I'm in peace
It's only when I hit the ground it causes all the grief

Cosmic Love. 1.13.2012.

A falling star fell from your heart and landed in my eyes
I screamed aloud, as it tore through them, and now it's left me blind

The stars, the moon, they have all been blown out
You left me in the dark
No dawn, no day, I'm always in this twilight
In the shadow of your heart

And in the dark, I can hear your heartbeat
I tried to find the sound
But then, it stopped, and I was in the darkness,
So darkness I became

The stars, the moon, they have all been blown out
You left me in the dark
No dawn, no day, I'm always in this twilight
In the shadow of your heart

I took the stars from my eyes, and then I made a map
And knew that somehow I could find my way back
Then I heard your heart beating, you were in the darkness too
So I stayed in the darkness with you

The stars, the moon, they have all been blown out
You left me in the dark
No dawn, no day, I'm always in this twilight
In the shadow of your heart

The stars, the moon, they have all been blown out
You left me in the dark
No dawn, no day, I'm always in this twilight
In the shadow of your heart

Drumming Song. 1.10.2012.

There's a drumming noise inside my head
That starts when you're around
I swear that you could hear it
It makes such an all mighty sound

There's a drumming noise inside my head
That throws me to the ground
I swear that you should hear it
It makes such an all mighty sound

Louder than sirens
Louder than bells
Sweeter than heaven
And hotter than hell

I ran to a tower where the church bells chime
I hoped that they would clear my mind
They left a ringing in my ear
But that drum's still beating loud and clear

Louder than sirens
Louder than bells
Sweeter than heaven
And hotter than hell

Louder than sirens
Louder than bells
Sweeter than heaven
And hotter than hell

Louder than sirens
Louder than bells
Sweeter than heaven
And hotter than hell

As I move my feet towards your body
I can hear this beat it fills my head up
And gets louder and louder
It fills my head up and gets louder and louder

I run to the river and dive straight in
I pray that the water will drown out the din
But as the water fills my mouth
It couldn't wash the echoes out
But as the water fills my mouth
It couldn't wash the echoes out

I swallow the sound and it swallows me whole
Till there's nothing left inside my soul
As empty as that beating drum
But the sound has just begun

As I move my feet towards your body
I can hear this beat it fills my head up
And gets louder and louder
It fills my head up and gets louder and louder

There's a drumming noise inside my head
That starts when you're around
I swear that you could hear it
It makes such an all mighty sound

There's a drumming noise inside my head
That starts when you're around
I swear that you could hear it
It makes such an all mighty sound

Louder than sirens
Louder than bells
Sweeter than heaven
And hotter than hell

Louder than sirens
Louder than bells
Sweeter than heaven
And hotter than hell

As I move my feet towards your body
I can hear this beat it fills my head up
And gets louder and louder
It fills my head up and gets louder and louder
