Germ Theory 03:51
lyrics

A man dwelling in a cave another says, how shall you behave? A man with spears comes after you he says, I won't do a thing 'Cause I, I, I, I, I, I know yeah I, I, I, I, I, I know yeah I, I, I, I, I, I know what's good for you And as the storm came my way, this time I did alright Cuz like the Germ theorist once said, chance favors the prepared mind The wise advisor says to his king, that youth comes after your coveted seat And all your people are at his back He says I won't do a thing 'Cause I, I, I, I, I, I know yeah I, I, I, I, I, I know yeah I, I, I, I, I, I know what's good for you And as the storm came my way, this time I did alright Cuz like the Germ theorist once said, chance favors the prepared mind 'Cause I, I, I, I, I, I know yeah I, I, I, I, I, I know yeah I, I, I, I, I, I know what's good for you

Blue Eyes 03:49
lyrics

I've been sitting at my grandmother's Story & Clark Coming up with tune that just might melt your heart And at the same time tell our tale so bold It's a sweet sweet melody that never gets old And in this coulda been, shoulda been world, We made it happen Don't count me out Before you I only knew a fleeting love Before you the only song I knew was of the morning dove And now I hear the full orchestra of the morning haze And it's accompanied by your blue eyes and your adorning gaze And in this coulda been, shoulda been world, We made it happen They say if you believe in something just enough It will come to pass surely as the sun comes up And so I won't stop girl until your hand's in mine And then I won't stop until we're both skipping rocks on the Rhine And in this coulda been, shoulda been world, We made it happen

The Great Exchange 03:42
lyrics
buy track
It's me I swear. I'm here only for your sake Don't breathe any other thoughts in or out And as that silver guilt makes you sink Don't worry, I'll be writhing on another tree This is the great exchange I've passed every single human test up till this day Now I'm torn and I'm bruised I'll bend and I'll for sure break But if it wasn't apparent in the parable Don't worry I'll make sure this love is apparent for ya This is the great exchange

Time to Fly 04:05
lyrics
buy track
A familiar face walked into the exam room She had called upon my time once before A woman of many years, with a pup that couldn't lift her head And I raised her in a basket on my bedroom floor My heart says it's time to fly This time she came in with one that was just a few weeks of age Feeling guilty because she had lost track She let the front door go, and before she knows it slammed into him and broke his back in half My heart says it's time to fly She said to me son, I am sorry for all my crying But can you do one thing for me I said, ma'am I'm sorry but this something we have to do You have my word that it is for the best Now lean you ear to him softly, and closely He wants to say this with his last breath My heart says it's time to fly
