Early Bird

You're an early bird
But you won't wait up for me.
You sleep until your mother calls
Even with your eyes both open wide
You're gone.
You don't recall,
No you don't remember me.
You say you do,
But I know that ain't true
You wait until the waking hours to tell him you're on fire.
You've taken on a hundred miles before you look behind.
There's no time to wave goodbye.
There is A.M. in your eyes.
The ghost you want will never come alive.
You believe what you will and say you're never sure
But you are
a wonder kid. You'll never let them in.
They'll tear you up with razors in their mouths.
You're a lovely girl
But you won't hear that from me
I wait until December's paws
Trot out the fire and close your eyes once more.

Julie Can You Drive

You fell asleep on the way home
In the back of the car
With your feet on the window
In the rain
We've forgotten the way home
Now it won't be too long
This car's been begging to be turned off
All the way
Julie can you drive? My eyes are miles away
There's a way out I know it
It takes half of the time
If we can get to the rest stop
And sleep till dawn
We can sing to the radio
We can lie to ourselves
And say that nothing is going on
When we get back
Last night I pretended I was sleeping
And I heard you promise to yourself
You wouldn't let you fall into pieces
You would not be leaving
And I almost blew my cover
And reached out for your hand
We will get over the mountain and over the next one

Do you need a little time darlin' ?
'Jule wake up
This spinning mind won't stop.
Turn over
My eyes are soon to crash
Our morning, dew leaving
Grew so fast
We'll pull these roots out of our legs
Do you believe in the whole damn reason we're leaving?
We've waited too long.
I don't want our ending yet to come.
'Jule looked up.
"We both have been through so much"
"I can't go" she wilted,
"You'll be better off"
"There's no grey sky that Pittsburgh can't out-gloom"
"We just don't have the history I'd need"
Do you know what I dream?
Do you need a little time darlin'?
