Just another funny song
From a sad sad girl
Just another funny song will do
Just another funny song
to take away the pain
When she feels like running home to you
Just another quiet song
From a powerful girl
Who finds anger too unkind
So she writes her secret songs
in codes of red & blue
When she’d prefer to speak her mind.
And I love you
Like the rain
that I want to go away
And I love you
like the drug
that taught me not to stay
Just another simple song
From a mixed-up girl
Who’d rather be nice than right
She simplifies the song
It gives her ground to stand on
As she moves in black and white
And I love you
like the moon
that can’t light on its own
And I love you
like a doll
that isn’t real,
but is all I’ve ever known
(you’re not real
but you’re all I’ve ever known)
So here’s an honest song
From a scared scared girl
Who’d like to let you go tonight
Yea it’s an honest song
from a made-up girl
who lives in black and white
who can’t tell the day from night
she lives in black and white.

Getting There

I know someone who wants the sun all the time
And she doesn’t seem to mind
that her wish would scorch the world
I know someone who lives inside her mind
And she doesn’t seem to find
any other way to get by
…She says goodbye all the time
I know a man who does everything he should
And he doesn’t seem to mind
That it won’t do him any good
I know a boy that’s buried in this man
And he doesn’t seem to know
What he is and isn’t greater than
…And I feel sorry for this man
We’ll always be broken in some way
And I can judge you or I can look away
But we’ll always be broken in one place or two
But I’m getting there
How about you?
I know a girl who lives a halfway kind of life
She traces round the parts of her
She’d like to leave behind
She’s got a friend who lives in suits and ties
And he leaves his heart at the door
on the way to sell his lies.
…But oh how hard he tries.
We’ll always be broken in some way
And I can judge you or I can look away
But we’ll always be broken in one place or two
But I’m getting there
How about you?
I know myself
Not as well as I’d like to
But I’m getting there
How about you?

Caterpillar Heart

The caterpillar can’t see what lies ahead
Though his cocoon awaits he’s not filled with dread
He inches along toward his caterpillar fate
If he were like us, he would hesitate
Standing frozen he would speculate
Falling off this flat earth
Only to discover that its round
My caterpillar heart tells me
truth is in the ground
His little legs they move him from day to day
He doesn’t sit and ponder his life away
And while his cocoon must be pretty dark inside
Without it he can’t be a butterfly
So what’s the use in being terrified of
Falling off this flat earth
Only to discover that its round
My caterpillar heart tells me
truth is in the ground
Poking at our thoughts like there's something to be found
Sacrificing lambs til we find an indifferent God
So is there more to confidence than this faith mirage?
Falling off this flat earth
Only to discover that its round
My caterpillar heart tells me
truth is in the ground
