1.
Raised in an apple tree and melted from candles emerged from the ocean with seaweed sandals picked from the garden and found in a hole scraped from the lining of a byzantine bowl. Went to the village when i thought i was ready, worked for allowance and saved up my pennies. Stacked in a pile and polished each one, counting the days that were left till i'm done.
2.
In the winter oh i'm gonna wear my coat, in the spring time watch the world grow, in the summer oh i'm going on a trip, in the fall i'm settled in. And the seasons go again like they always do but oh my goodness i feel oh so blue it feels like nothing. On a monday i wash up all my clothes, on a tuesday i don't know where to go, on a wednesday bowling at the z, thursday, friday are favorites for me, but the days go by again again like they always have but oh my goodness why's it feel so bad, it feels like nothing.
3.
Cloud 03:12
Why when your high on a cloud, and you figured it out, down oh way back to town, to the little old town, clouds are just rain now. Why, when you've come to the end and you've done what was said, oh you've done what you've said, all, all the way through, there's nothing to do, there's nothing for you. Call me up, oh just call me up, darling, call me up, cause i love you.
4.
Gasoline 04:14
Gasoline, pumping through your veins, as you run away from me, as you get away. Don't look back, and don't you blink, this is what has happened now because you tried to leave me. But if you, should be going, going going, know that i'll be gone, I'm going too, oh i will be through, oh that is my cue. She did say, that 'you're better off alone, the things you keep a distance from are the ones where love does grow'. But if i were to follow, follow, follow I know that i would have nothing to do. But if you should be going, going, going, know that i'll be gone, I'm going too, oh i'm going too, oh that is my cue, oh i'll follow you.
5.
I called up the barber, I called up the bank, I called the operator to tell her about my day. But there is no use, no there just isn't time, cause they're not my baby no they aren't mine. I dialed your number that i thought you had changed and the voice that picked up oh she spoke to me plain, said "you are forgiven".
6.
Pocket 03:17
The light that you had in your pocket, oh the light that you had in your hand, the powers that you thought you could harness, when the beast was keeping you off the path...But oh, he isn't anything that you're not, oh no, he isn't anything that you're not. All that you see is a leaf in the breeze if that's all that you're looking to see. Find me a color that will brighten the sky as it's falling and is aiming for me.
7.
Nectar tastes oh so sweet and good from the flower that's hidden so deep in the woods. I'll bring you back some, i'll treat you well to the sweetest gift, got the sweetest smell. Here you go.
8.
Banyan Tree 03:30
Come with me to the banyan tree. Twenty steps down you'll sit from me. Om is the bow and the arrow is the soul. Brahman is the arrow's goal. Now I'll leave this town to go find truth, arriving at the Samana this afternoon. I'll breathe so little and I'll mute my heart. To meditate well is a beautiful art. Stone, wood, water, ground, sun, moon, vision, sound, cycle through the passing days, you escape.
9.
Desert 04:02
My mind is a desert sometimes, and his mind is a beach. Her mind's like a forest oh yeah and his thoughts are out of reach. Called you up when i wanted to talk but the words oh they did dry, empty is the pool of words in this landscape between my eyes. And everyday i want to tell you so much oh everything you'd like to hear, oh everyday i want to tell you so much about this desert in between my ears.
10.
It's heavy, so heavy, it's weighing me down, that heart that is in me, i carry around. It's guarded with armor, a thick trusty shell and when you attack it i think you can tell, oh i think you can tell me, oh i think you can tell me, yes, no or maybe. It's heavy so heavy and weighing you down, the troubles that you keep on hauling around. A bag or bucket I'm giving to you to dispose of your worries so you can find truth. oh i think you can tell me, oh i think you can tell me, yes, no or maybe.
11.
See You 02:15
I can see you, I can see you falling away oh yes you're falling away. Hold on tightly, hold on tightly you'll find a way because it isn't too late. Silent inside, snows in my mind, covered and frozen i have nothing to say. White space filled up, words i've lined up ready to play during the melting in May.

about

Gathered Ghosts was done in my parent’s basement in Pullman, Washington using guitars, bass, Logic, my girlfriend’s autoharp, an ocarina that my parent’s brought back from Argentina, piano, some micro-Korg and a couple of other things.
