Good Enough

When I’m awake and you’re on my mind
You seem to be a visitor from another time
When the days were warm and you still looked the same
I didn’t think I knew you then but you showed up anyway
I didn’t have a clue what you’d think of me
But I took my time and found my way out confidentially
I tried too hard to be good enough
But I only seemed to get in my way
If I’m not good for nothing
I’m going to love you anyways
If it makes no difference
Hold on to what I said
If I’m not good for nothing
I’m going to love you anyways
If it makes no difference
Hold on to what I said
Hold on to what I said
You’re going to miss me when I’m gone

I see your face and it all makes sense
The room bends the light around you to show its reverence
I try to make my way but my feet get stuck
I watch you fade out of the scene, then I wake up
Each time you were low, you’d see yourself back on top
Not taking into mind the hits you take, on your way to make it up
Those I thought were close, could only watch you destruct
The process though slow was always sure, guaranteed to leave you fucked
The mood settles in and it comes with the frost
And not until May does it ever seem to thaw
It’s during these times that I feel lost
I bring you back to where we left off.
I look for the signs to know that you’re OK
But the worst is what I’ve come to expect based on recent history
Don’t know why you chose to cut us off, what we did to offend
But you can return no questions asked you don’t need to feel ashamed.
The mood settles in and it comes with the frost
And not until May does it ever seem to thaw
It’s during these times that I feel lost
I bring you back to where we left off.

Glory

Waiting for the rise and fall of days
When we will meet again
Glory, why’d you leave me like you did
Open hands, my face they hid
Now I need you and you are not there
I can’t see you with my eyes open
We both were young and did not know any better
Still I don’t blame you
Glory when I met you I was whole
Now that you have gone I have holes
Try to fill them with the other girls
But each one of them falls short
The first thing you said to me was
You look lost where are you going?
I feel foolish because I forgot my reply
What I said that made you smile
Now that you have left I lie on the ground
So I can be close to you now
I press my ear to the dirt and hold my breath
And listen for the sound of your heart, still beating
Glory, when I heard that you had died
I did not know how I would survive
Now I guess I’m left with memories
And the words that I was saving
I will move on one day at a time
and try to find another
With each moment, I move closer to you
Try to say I’m sorry

Hourglass

You blow me kisses
I wait for them
I’m bound to your floor
With open mouth
You tell me secrets
I listen close
But what’s true and what’s myth
There’s no way to ever know
I am rising
Yes I am
My eyes are upward
And waiting for spring
You’ve got your secrets
You’ll get your way
While you decide, I lie in patient wait
Tell me something
Do you see
Any room for us in your hourglass?
I am rising
Here I stand
My eyes are upward
And waiting for spring
I am ready
Just give me the word
Send up a signal
I’ll cut clean and run
I’ll cut clean and run
You blow me kisses
I wait for them
I’m bound to your floor
With open mouth
Tell me something
Do you see
Any room for us in your hourglass?

The band was originally formed to perform the recorded solo material of lead singer-songwriter Brian Bergeron, but Wide Awake | Open Eyes represents each band members’ continually expanding involvement in the songwriting process. ... more
