From the recording A Calm Sun
Lyrics
In the dog house once again
Though I try hard as I can
Fumbling through each new day
And though I’m sorry through and through
Took my darkness out on you
Sometimes we learn by messin' up
Cause there’s an octopus inside
Made of all the tears I’ve cried
And its eyes are baby blue
And I’m teaching it to swim
Instead of suctioning to him
And I see one thing to do
Oh when those feeling start to fly
Gonna stay right here in the hurricane’s eye
Big teeth swirling all around
But I’m right here, breathing
From this soft tongue ground
From this dog house I can see
All the past so vibrantly
Technicolor laser show
And though I never mean to harm
There’s that creature with eight arms
Trippin’ up integrity
Now I ain’t trying to make excuse
I wanna ride the truth Caboose
No matter what the price
But I can’t keep writing you songs
Even I have to move on
Not that you care either way
Oh when those feeling start to fly
Gonna stay right here in the hurricane’s eye
Big teeth swirling all around
But I’m right here, breathing
From this soft tongue ground
