Steven - James Vincent McMorrow

Steven, I love you I can't grow passed you, I'm homesick in spite of the place, That I fostered and styled and raised this child, Keeps me in pitch and in pace But I miss reaching for the lasers, The sound of the beat as it clicks away, Classes cool behavior, Spending the night out of the sky, Learning to love and not ask why Steven, I missed you, The whole world kissed you, You shot up in bloom like a fern, That was spotted and black, With the leaves rolled back, As I same trick to easy to turn Should I change my name and move to the country, A life full of children and animals, White fences and landed gentry Baby, i want to be myself, But i am somebody else Nine months later i'm the lonely one, With all the food of labor and half of the fun, Crisp and cozy in the rising sun, He's got a heart of gold, And he beats like a drum, And he shakes, The pebbles that crack and then break, The kid logic, Dissolves and it all starts to give away, That nothing is ever the same I can't stand it, I want to be myself, But I am somebody else, Steven, I'm watching the world get boring, There's too much restraint in the mix, I'd be overly flattered to feel so shattered, To have something broken to fix But I know the world outside is knocking, The dream and the drive of the pedigree, The voices interlocking, Maybe I want to be myself, But I am somebody else Nine months later I'm the lonely one, With all the food of labor and half of the fun, Crisp and cozy in the rising sun, He's got a heart of gold, And he beats like a drum, And he shakes, The pebbles that crack and then break, The kid logic, Dissolves and it all starts to give away, That nothing is ever the same I can't stand it, I want to be myself, But I am somebody else And you'll never harbor someone like me, If you never leave then you'll never see, I swear that i will pull you from the wreckage, Of this sunday-monday routine I will pull you from the wreckage, Don't you leave on my own, 'Cause you and me, We're two of a kind, We're two of a kind Steven, i love you I can't grow past you I have nothing left to give to you

I don't want to see you go I don't even want to be there I will cover up my eyes And pray it goes away You've only lived a minute of your life I must be dreaming, please stop screaming I don't like to hear you cry You just don't know how deep that cuts me So I will cover up my eyes And it will go away You've only lived a minute of your life I must be dreaming, please stop screaming Steven! Steven! I hear my name! Steven! Is someone calling me? I hear my name! Steven! That icy breath that whispers screams of pain! I don't want to feel you die But if that's the way that God has planned you I'll put pennies on your eyes And it will go away See? You've only lived a minute of your life I must be dreaming, please stop screaming Steven... Is someone calling me? No... Steven... I think I hear a voice--- it's outside the door! Steven! I hear my name! Steven! Is someone calling me? I hear my name! Steven! What do you want? Steven! What do you want? What do you want? What do you want? Steven! Steven! Steven! I hear my name...

The moon holds the light And the moon's this spinning globe Shedding light upon the road The bird won't fly And a bird without its wings is a low and tragic thing We are ghosts We are ghosts amongst these hills From the trees of velvet green To the ground beneath our feet We are ghosts We are ghosts amongst these hills Pressing out along the shore Pressing out along the shore The mountain song Matters not the thoughts of thirds Matters only to be heard And though I'm gone I will come again in Spring When the harvest can begin We are ghosts We are ghosts amongst these hills From the trees of velvet green To the ground beneath our feet We are ghosts We are ghosts amongst these hills Pressing out along the shore Pressing out along the shore Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

Heard you're gettin' married (get low) Everybody says (get low) Greatest man alive (get low) I've been told (oh, ya never show, oh, ya never show) Bought yourselves a diamond (get low) Finally gettin' paid (get low) Buyin' people's silence (get low) They're afraid (oh, ya never show, oh, ya never show) Constant threat of violence, it works It can get you so far End up feelin' worse, it's cold And you're left with no one I love the way your heart had no rule Lovin' what your heart becomes Even when you smile, you're so cruel Lovin' what your heart becomes Remember when my hands, they turned blue? Lovin' what your heart becomes I love the way you hang with no fruit Lovin' what your heart becomes What your heart becomes, ah-ah-ah What your heart becomes How'd we get invited (get low) Out here in L.A.? (Get low) Try to be the man you need (get low) Every day (oh, ya never show, oh, ya never show) Thought I'd write a novel (get low) I didn't like the weight (get low) It's hard to stay inspired (get low) And stay awake (oh, ya never show, oh, ya never show) And strugglin' in darkness, it works It can get you so far But diggin' in the dirt, it gets old Then you're left with no one I love the way your heart had no rules Lovin' what your heart becomes And even when you smile, you're still cruel Lovin' what your heart becomes Remember when my hands, they turned blue? Lovin' what your heart becomes Love the way you hang with no fruit Lovin' what your heart becomes What your heart becomes What your heart becomes Gather in a circle Droppin' to her knees Prayin' for forgiveness from you Beggin', please? Clappin' like we mean it And nothin's ever changed Everythin' about it, always Stays the same I love the way your heart had no rule Lovin' what your heart becomes Even when you smile, you're still cruel Lovin' what your heart becomes Remember when my hands turned blue? Lovin' what your heart becomes Love the way you hang with no fruit Lovin' what your heart becomes What your heart becomes What your heart becomes

Someone here's a lie, somewhere underneath Caught between the railing, mirroring the beat I no longer feel and the years asleep Show no sense of hope, staring honestly I wanna go south of the river Glacier slow in the heart of the winter I wanna go south of the river Facing alone in the heart of the winter And this we'll celebrate, this we'll celebrate There and on the stage, this is a mistake Damn me off too long, down the earth and moon Damn the clawing kneeling, rustling into change In a moment I was caught, calling by a storm In the moment of a hot I wanna go south of the river Glacier slow in the heart of the winter I wanna go south of the river Facing alone in the heart of the winter I'm not in a glove called how Few became, few became as glory as along Against the forest state and starting living in the new Harrow since, harrow since the farthest Reach underneath inside a cheat Something, someone is alive, somewhere underneath Caught between the real and the fake I don't want to fit, there and has been found Silence is so cold, and there's no sense at all And I was someone else, I was something good Barely in the old, there among the cold I wanna go south of the river Glacier slow in the heart of the winter I wanna go south of the river Facing alone in the heart of the winter

It must drive you crazy How much time I spend procrastinating I said, I'd meet you there Line was forming, baby, I went home instead And you waited outside for 47 weeks We barely even speak, you barely even realize that all I need to know is Are there too many planes in the sky? I think about it constantly I need to know if Are there too many planes in the sky? I think about you constantly Woah, ohhh And I need to say it to you I never dreamt about you Woah, oh I never dreamt about you But I always dream about you now And I talked to my friends last night, said, Hey What you doing? Maybe come outside some time, have fun A reunion (a reunion) I talk to them less than I used to But you're still outside (outside) Still making sure I'm staying alive I guess they're right (they're right) I guess it's changing, but all I need to know is (I need to know is) Are there too many planes in the sky? I think about it constantly I need to know if (I need to know) Are there too many planes in the sky? I think about you constantly Woah, ohhh I need to say it to you I never dreamt about you Woah, ohhh I never dreamt about you But I always dream about you now I never dreamt about you I always dream about you now Are there too many planes in the sky? I think too much, I need your love I've gotta be around you, always Planes in the sky, I think too much, I need your love I've gotta be around you, always Planes in the sky, I think too much, I need your love I've gotta be around you always Planes in the sky, I think too much, I need your love I've gotta be around you, always Woah, ohhh I need to say it to you I never dreamt about you Woah, ohhh I never dreamt about you But I always dream about you now Woah, ohhh I never dreamt about you But I always dream about you now Woah, ohhh Hey, hey, yeah
