Loud Planes Fly Low

The Rosebuds Loud Planes Fly Low Lyrics
1.Go Ahead

Go ahead and be my world
And everything will be okay
Just hide there in plain sight
Too big to see, yeah to see

We'll have coffee and watch the strangers
Gather our letters and carry us further
Diluted and faded, still safely there
Still there, still there

Go ahead, let's plant a forest
Where we can hide when the city expels us
We can sleep in the branches
Our own little outpost in the trees

We'll plan ahead and cut a path
So we can always sneak our way back
And line it all with grapevines and keep them well tuned
So we can run, we can run through

Let's go ahead and grab our clothes
And walk together where the water knows us
And toss them over the edge
Into the lake and watch them sink

Let's make a pact, set a date
Meet back up here at this same place
And maybe brim will make beds in your dresses
In your dresses, in your dresses

Go ahead and leave two notes
And place them down inside old library books
And fold back the pages
Put them back in their spaces, undisturbed

And we'll come back and see inside
Who checked them out and if they replied
Or if they're still there unread and unanswered
Quiet, unread and unanswered


2.Limitless Arms

I've carried too much, limitless arms hold tight
Buried in yarn, carry it in a jar for a light
And I feel I'm reaching out for the last time
And I feel I'm reaching out for the last time

Color in sounds, worn-out maps and travel phones
Feed it to birds, try and be there on my own
And I feel I'm reaching out for the last time
And I feel I'm reaching out for the last time

And I feel I'm reaching out for the last time
And I feel I'm reaching out for the last time
But I feel I'm reaching out like a child
But I feel I'm reaching out for the last time
And I feel I'm reaching out for the last time
In a field


3.Second Bird Of Paradise

So you're knelled down
Squinting cowardly and half asleep
You've been firing
Only barely clipping her little wing

I'm waiting, with a mirror in front of me
Complicated dance move
I'm waiting, with a mirror in front of me
Complicated dance move

She's my sister, and she floats
Like a bird in the canopy
I'm listening, so let's go
Sight locked, grit your teeth

I'm waiting, here I am brilliant, aim at me
Complicated dance move
She's my sister, and she floats
Like a bird in the canopy
She floats like a bird in the canopy


4.Come Visit Me


5.Without A Focus

And everyone considers it a gift
I wanna try, there's no way it fits
I don't know how I am supposed to feel
I don't know how I am supposed to feel

So, we start over every night
The numbness or whatever diffused light
I don't know how I am supposed to feel
I don't know how I am supposed to feel without a focus
I'm trying, trying every day
But I don't know if perspective ceases to exist

And you look over at me every day
And I look over at you every day
I don't know how long I'm supposed to wait
I don't know how long I'm supposed to wait

Though you're here, I'm still alone inside
I've got no feeling you're nothing but right
It's humbling when I'm here, I cannot lie
I'm humbled here, I mean I'm humbled inside
Without a single image as the focus
I don't know if perspective ceases to exist

I see you try to find a simple place
The little room to get away
But it's too cold and draft your way back there
It's too cold and draft your way back there

And I play records people do away
To find the meaning or the words to say
I don't know how I ever ignored this
I don't know how I ever ignored this without a focus

I'm trying, trying every day
But I don't know if perspective ceases to exist
Without a focus, I'm trying, trying every day
But I don't know if perspective ceases to exist

Sometimes, we drive just to sit and think
For hours and hours and hours and hours
I don't know how I am supposed to feel
You don't know how you are supposed to feel

We overlooked it everyday
A thing of beauty if just went away
I don't know how it ever came to this
I don't know how it ever came to this


6.Waiting For You

And I tried to be myself
(And I'm waiting for you)
And I tried to come around
(And I'm waiting for you)
And I've tried to leave my way)
(And I'm waiting for you, and I'm waiting)

I don't want to spend the rest of my days
Living in a world confusing to me
I don't want to have it all
I don't want to bring the trouble I bring

And I tried to make a start
(And I'm waiting for you)
And I tried to come around
(And I'm waiting for you)
And I arrived on my own
(And I'm waiting for you, and I'm waiting)

Spend a little bit of time with my baby
Spend a little bit of time with my other half
Spend a little bit of time with my baby
Spend a little bit of time with my other half

And I tried to be myself
(And I'm waiting for you)
And I tried to build my home
(And I'm waiting for you)
And I tried not to come undone
(And I'm waiting for you)

And in the middle of night
I don't know who I am
When you turn off the lights
I don't know where I am
Sometimes at night I just drive around
(And I'm waiting)


7.Woods

Ceramic lights, is this television, is this first ideas
Laughter hangs from spindled towers, perception makes it real
And blankets devour, autumn stretches, on a hill up high
Say don't you wait for me to give up on my side

Holding the lights, everyone is burning down the pines
There's nowhere to hide, everyone out here is so high
Oh, good god

Insides lit up with constellations, reflect teeming eyes
And all the sounds for newborn ears, fresh, noisy and alive
No don't you wait for me, no don't you wait, no don't you wait
for me
No, you can't burn what is already on fire

Holding the lights, everyone is burning down the pines
There's nowhere to hide, everyone out here is so high
Oh, good god

If there's a softness left then it's down deep
Sleeping in the mines
And to get to it would stir the sticking fits
From where they now reside

The smallness is the comfort between us
But experience makes us mean
And I know I know, I know, I know
This is where the woods will take you

Holding the lights, everyone is burning down the pines
There's nowhere to hide, everyone out here is so high
Oh, good god

Holding the lights, everyone is burning down the pines
There's nowhere to hide, everyone out here is so high
Oh, good god


8.A Story


9.Cover Ears


10.Worthwhile

If we could go on wishing all the time
Then we could've had a break when we were tired
And we would rest awhile, and I'd try to make you smile
Girl, I want to make it all worthwhile

The snow is falling on the sidewalks of Greenpoint
Blank white walls are sleeping with your voice
And I sent a box of our stuff, so there's something to open up
Girl, I want to make this all worthwhile

And I know you, and it all went by too soon
If we could go on wishing all our lives
I would go on wishing we did it right
And we could tell the truth about the fragile me and you
All I want is to make this all worthwhile
And I know you, and it all went by too soon
