DARK EXCHANGE January 14th 2023
The third single from my upcoming album, "It's not enough to be my own body. It's not enough to know you in dreams." Available on Bandcamp, Spotify, Apple Music, and all kinds of other streaming services.
Static, sound / There’s movement underground
Something fades / A dark exchange
Like subways in the tunnel
Like two ships in the night
Everyone looks like somebody else
In the deep unending night
I see through both the windows
And I see through both your eyes
Everyone looks for somebody else
When something isn’t right, isn’t right (It isn’t right!)
Isn’t right, something isn’t right
A hidden touch / Is nothing close enough?
No other way / A dark exchange
Like strangers in the tunnel
Like two dreams in the night
Everyone looks like somebody else
In the long unsteady light
I find you on another plane
But I can’t meet your eyes
Everyone looks for somebody else
When something isn’t right, isn’t right (It isn’t right!)
Isn’t right, something…
Like two screams in the tunnel
Like whispers in the night
Everything is lost again
At the break of morning light
I am scattered everywhere,
Afraid to meet your eyes
This isn’t right (It isn’t right!)
Something, something isn’t right
I haven’t talked to you lately
Wonder where you’ve been
Nothing like I remember
Withdrawn, within
It’s not enough to be my own body
Its not enough to know you in dreams
Its not enough to whisper sweet nothings
Just say what you mean

When green breaks ground
in the garden again
Think of me and grow, my friend
Spring follows winter
For a reason
So while I lay down roots
in search of deeper soils
Kiss me goodbye, and
Leave for a while
Wind follows wings
For a reason
Of all the stones in streams, and
each December snow
I always thought that we
Would outlive them all
I follow you
For a reason
When green breaks ground
in the garden again
Think of me and grow, my friend
Spring follows winter,
Wind follows wings,
I follow you
