I Want It All
04:55
|

|
I sensed a hesitation
The first time that you held me
So I closed the eyes of my heart
So I didn’t have to see
That I was pretending
I was pretending that you loved me
Did you love me?
And now I’m still hoping
My own private torture
I keep a door open
I keep a door open..
And tell me was it so hard
Tell me was it so hard
To be a little kind now?
Believe me I tried so hard
Believe me I tried so hard
To keep you in my life now…
Oh why…
Why….
Why can’t I forget you?
Forget you
So why…
Why…
Why can’t I forget you?
Forget you
I want it all (14x)
I’ve felt alone through my whole life
Every hour, every minute
I want to relive you
But I need to forgive you
I need to forget you
But I don’t want to lose you…
And tell me was it so hard
Tell me was it so hard
To give a little tenderness?
Believe me I tried so hard
Believe me I tried so hard
To keep you in my life now…
Oh why…
Why….
Why can’t I forget you?
Forget you
So why…
Why…
Why can’t I forget you?
Forget you
I want it all (14x)
Oh why…
Why….
Why can’t I forget you?
Forget you
So why…
Why…
Why can’t I forget you?
Forget you
I want it all (14x)

Forgive me if I left,

You’ll find a better lover
Cuz I’m living in my isolette
I’m sorry
I dont know how
To be around people
I am so afraid of doing all the wrong things
In my life, nobody taught me
How to trust myself
Or trust anyone
Back in the Iso..
Back in the Iso..
Back in the Isolette
Back in the Iso..
Back in the Iso..
Back in the Isolette
Forgive me if I left,

You’ll find a better lover
Cuz I’m living in my isolette
I was hopeful
That by now
I could move forward
But I look around
And nothing is emerging in my life
No one really knows me
I cant trust myself
Or trust anyone!
Back in the Iso..
Back in the Iso..
Back in the Isolette
Back in the Iso..

I’m sorry for not being honest
The truth is that I miss you
Sometimes I cry when I think about you
I’m still scared
I’m still scared.

My darlin’ my lover,
How I love you how I miss you
But my solitude loves me better than you do.
My sweet little charmer
I want to give you all of my body
But my loneliness fucks me better than you do.
There was a time
I need you
And I would die for you
I gave you every heartbeat
What did you give to me?
What did you give to me?
I can’t keep holding on
I cant keep holding on and on and on….
My darlin’ my lover,
How I love you how I miss you
But my solitude loves me better than you do.
My sweet little charmer
I want to give you all of my body
But my loneliness fucks me better than you do.
Sensitive.
You say im too sensitive.
Now darlin you’re misreading things
I just finally give a shit about my own heart
About my own life
And I can’t keep holding on
I can’t keep holding on and on and on…
My darlin’ my lover,
How I love you how I miss you
But my solitude loves me better than you do.
My sweet little charmer
I want to give you all of my body
But my loneliness fucks me better than you do.
I wanna go hard
I wanna go hard
I wanna go hard
I wanna go hard (x8)

Harms
01:47
|
|||
|
To all the motherless sons,
I can’t speak for you.
I only have my stories.
I only hold my harms.
But I’m angry for you.
And I’m angry for me.
She didn’t teach me love.
She didn’t teach me trust.
And It shows up everywhere.
Sisyphus in my face,
Fucking my face all day…
All day…..

Oh little Jonny,
Won’t you listen to me?
I have some things to say.
You’ve waited so long to hear.
I’m never leaving your side.
I’ve got your heart in my hand.
I’m proud of you for all you’ve done.
You make me laugh like no one else.
And you built a life where there was no life.
Cuz you're so creative...
And you're so courageous!
So if you wanna nap,
Let’s take a nap…
And if you want to cry,
I will hold you.
Oh little Jonny,
There’s some things I want to say.
You’ve been waiting far too long
To hear them….

Plastic Envelope

Oh no what happened to us darlin?
I know we didn’t see it coming.
I thought that I would die by your side.
I thought that baby this was our life.
You said to dream so i dreamt hard
Now I don’t know you anymore.
There’s a plastic envelope
Taped to the wall beside my bed
Inside are words that say you love me
Just like my heart, I don’t know
If i could ever open it again
Cuz I built my world on all your promises
And now I’m alone… alone… alone….
Oh no what happened to you darlin?
I can’t find love in all your talking.
Last night I couldn’t look in your eyes
Afraid of all the things I might find
They’re like a map to your strange heart
And I can’t be here anymore.
There’s a plastic envelope
Taped to the wall beside my bed
Inside are words that say you love me
Just like my heart, I don’t know
If i could ever open it again
Cuz I built my world on all your promises
And now I’m alone… alone… alone….
There’s a plastic envelope

Protect Him Always
00:54
|
|||
|
All the things they did to me
When I was just a young boy
There’s a little child that lives in me
I just wanna protect him always (x3)
So sweet, so tender, still looking for his mother
He deserves only flowers
I’m healing fast as I can, I’m so sorry
Fast as I can, I’m so sorry.

Be Gentle
03:55
|

|
If you text me,
If you call me,
Be gentle to me
If you text me,
When you’re drunk and lonely,
Be gentle to me…
Oh that beautiful face
I dream about it every night
And you didn’t say goodbye in a way
I could deem as kind…
Why the fuck and I so sensitive?
Will I be this way my whole life?
You got me scared to hear from you tonight…
If you text me,
If you call me,
Be gentle to me
If you text me,
When you’re drunk and lonely,
Be gentle to me…
I worked so hard
To pull away
From those pretty eyes
But you know the way…
Know what to say…
To fuck my nights…
Maybe it’s good that I’m this sensitive !
You’ll probably be this way your whole life !
You got me scared to hear from you tonight...
If you text me,
If you call me,
Be gentle to me
If you text me,
When you’re drunk and lonely,
Be gentle to me…

i wanna be feeling
my heart is all i have
i wanna be chillin
with my arms around you
i wish you were here
but you walked out the door
oh don’t you know
that there’s really no place to go
l’m convinced that i can love you
deeper than youre used to
deeper that you thought you were worth
if you truly understood your
beauty in this world
then maybe you could let yourself fall..
into the cool green grass that I have planted for you…
Into the softest blanket I unfolded for you…
Into these steady arms forever open to you…
i wanna be feeling
my heart is all i have
i wanna be chillin
with my arms around you
i wish you were here
but you walked out the door
oh don’t you know
that there’s really no place to go
I remember in the garden
you said a lot of nothing
afraid to tell me just how you felt
I so wish that you could trust me
Every word’s so pretty
simply because it comes from your mouth
so won’t you fall..
into the cool green grass that I have planted for you…
Into the softest blanket I have unfolded for you…
Into these sturdy arms forever open to you…

Obvious

I remember
Last time I saw you
You were in my bed
You were kissing me
All over my body
And I knew then…
I couldn’t admit it
I couldn’t say right then
But you’ve changed my whole life
And now baby
Your love is good as gold
And you deserve to be told
You deserve to be told!
So next time I see you
I’ll throw my arms around you on the street corner
Cuz everything inside me wants to hold you
And I realize it’s obvious that I need you
How obvious! How Obvious!
Oh baby
Forgive me when I hesitate
It’s not that I want to
It just comes natural with a past like mine
But Oh baby you did it!
Your consistency has opened up my heart
And now baby
Your love is good as gold
And you deserve to be told
You deserve to be told!
So next time I see you
I’ll throw my arms around you on the street corner
Cuz everything inside me wants to hold you
And I realize it’s obvious that I need you
How obvious! How Obvious!
Last night it hit me
And boy it hit so hard…
So next time I see you
I’ll throw my arms around you on the street corner
Cuz everything inside me wants to hold you
And I realize it’s obvious that I need you
How obvious! How Obvious!
So next time I see you
I’ll throw my arms around you on the street corner
Cuz everything inside me wants to hold you
And I realize it’s obvious that I need you
How obvious! How Obvious!

The Flowers

Where did you come from, Honey?
Your hand on my back,
It’s gentle as can be.
And when you hold my hand,
You hold my heart
And when you kiss my lips,
You’re kissing my soul!
I wanna know you honey
Your steady eyes,
They’re telling me to trust this
There’s a quiet strength
Inside your tenderness
And I wanna be in it
And I like the pretty things you said about the flowers.
And I loved how long you hugged me when I said I missed her…
And I might be alone some other time in my life…
But I’m not tonight.
But I’m not tonight!
Where did you find me honey?
You really swam your way down to the ocean floor
I swear, I swear, I swear,
I thought I’d die there…
But just when I made my peace,
The door swung open!
Oh never leave me honey!
But if you do at least I know that I can
Still feel alive,
Still feel some happiness…
Oh I can be in it!
And I like the pretty things you said about the flowers.
And I loved how long you hugged me when I said I missed her…
And I might be alone some other time in my life…
But I’m not tonight.
But I’m not tonight!
Where did you come from honey?
Where did you come from honey?
And I like the pretty things you said about the flowers.
And I loved how long you hugged me when I said I missed her…
And I might be alone some other time in my life…
But I’m not tonight.
But I’m not tonight!
And I like the pretty things you said about the flowers.
And I loved how long you hugged me when I said I missed her…
And I might be alone some other time in my life…
But I’m not tonight.
But I’m not tonight!

Teach My Body
04:35
|
|||
|
Oh Darlin,
I want to give you more
But my body keeps the score
I need to heal from the inside,
Emerge from the inside
And I want to be pointless and free with you
But there’s a combination we have to unlock
With the right kisses
With the right touches
With the right movements
Oh, your beautiful movements!
You are the father and the son
Only in you I believe, I believe
And I’m sorry when my body isn’t ready
There are things that have happened long ago
But if we’re gentle, we’ll heal these insecurities
I promise you, I can give you everything
Just teach my body
Oh help me, teach my body.
Oh darlin,
I don’t believe in god
Mostly because of what’s happened in my life
There’s still a child that lives on the inside
Still hurts on the inside
My deepest wish is to rest in your arms
The sweetest refuge where no one can hurt me
But it will take courage
All of my courage
And some tenderness
Oh, your beautiful tenderness
You are the father and the son
Only in you I believe, I believe
And I’m sorry when my body isn’t ready
There are things that have happened long ago
But if we’re gentle, we’ll heal these insecurities
I promise you, I can give you everything
Just teach my body
Oh help me, teach my body.
The oldest comforts I know starve me of love
But with you I can throw them away
Fill me up softly with your love
I’m with you
I’m with you
I’m with you!
And I’m sorry when my body isn’t ready
There are things that have happened long ago
But if we’re gentle, we’ll heal these insecurities
I promise you, I can give you everything
Just teach my body
Oh help me, teach my body.

Put a pill on my tongue and I’ll let it dissolve
Cuz this world’s been so hard to swallow
I’ve been craving a slower moment with you
I want to touch you and smell you and lick you and feel you and kiss you
Fuck these anxieties
Fuck these anxieties
Fuck these anxieties
You helped bring back my innocence
Woke up a young boy that wants to dance
Brought out a mother to nurture you
8 hours of loving
And finally living
When I was your woman
When I was a young boy I dealt with pain through
Wrapping myself in purple and pink and silver
And they tried to take away those beautiful things
The tender side of me
But
Fuck these anxieties
Fuck these anxieties
Fuck these anxieties
You helped bring back my innocence
Woke up a young boy that wants to dance
Brought out a mother to nurture you
8 hours of loving
And finally living
When I was your woman
Life a flower falling upward
Like a flower, slow motion
Like a flower falling upward
Like a flower, slow motion
(I am a flower falling upward)
Oh I’ll never go back
I’ll never never never
I’ll never go back
I’ll never never never (x2)

Did I die as a child?
And as a child did I die?
All thing things I learned seem useless
In the end…
Did I cry as a child?
And as a child did I cry?
Oh, sad sadistic mother…
And no one left to hold me
There’s still a very real part of me
Like a tender baby
That’s still fending for himself
I’m still fending for myself
And still a very real part of me
Thinks no one can love me
I’m still fending for myself
I’m still fending for myself
I still don’t know how to feel love
I still don’t know how to feel love
Oh, when you kiss the palm of my hand
When you hold me with your smile
Oh, I don’t feel I deserve this
In the end…
There’s still a very real part of me
Like a tender baby
That’s still fending for himself
I’m still fending for myself
And still a very real part of me
Thinks no one can love me
I’m still fending for myself
I’m still fending for myself
I still don’t know how to feel love
I still don’t know how to feel love
There’s still a very real part of me
Like a tender baby
That’s still fending for himself
I’m still fending for myself
And still a very real part of me
Thinks no one can love me
I’m still fending for myself
I’m still fending for myself
I still don’t know how to feel love
I still don’t know how to feel love

The Impossible

Oh, I thought I could be like you
But now i know that nothing was true
Oh, I thought that I loved you
now I know, it was just a version of you
Oh silly boy, silly one
Will you ever learn?
It’s hard to think when
I’m kissing lips like that
And I’ll take some of the blame
My imagination…
I filled you in again and again.
And I’m deeply human
I only saw what I wanted
I do it all the time
All the time…
Stupid…
Stupid me now…
Getting too hopeful
And placing all my bets
On the impossible.
We were the only thing
That I ever had faith in
You’re beautiful
especially with that haircut
And it’s hard to think
When you look like that
Oh silly boy, silly one
How am i back here again?
You promised me love,
And i needed it then.
And I’m deeply human
I only saw what I wanted
I do it all the time
All the time…
Stupid…
Stupid me now…
Getting too hopeful
And placing all my bets
On the impossible.
We were the only thing
That I ever had faith in
Stupid…
Stupid me now…
Getting too hopeful
And placing all my bets
On the impossible.
We were the only thing
That I ever had faith in
Stupid…
Stupid me now…
Getting too hopeful
And placing all my bets
On the impossible.
We were the only thing
That I ever had faith in
Impossible, impossible, impossible…
Impossible, impossible, impossible…
Impossible, impossible, impossible…
Impossible, impossible, impossible…

When Every Cell is Sad

I want to be loved
By you, by only you
Lay me down on your couch
And let me feel the weight of your body
Let it transfer into me
All the love that I’ll ever need
When every cell is sad
I want you to kiss them
Kiss them one at a time
Can you do it?
Oh let me lay down
With you, with only you
Lock the door to the house
And let me feel the breath in your body
Let it take over me
All the life that I’ll ever need
When every cell is sad
I want you to kiss them
Kiss them one at a time
Can you do it?
Every cell
Every cell
Every cell
Every cell
Every cell
Every cell…
When every cell is sad
I want you to kiss them
Kiss them one at a time
Can you do it?
When every cell is sad
I want you to kiss them
Kiss them one at a time
Can you do it?

Noah, Noah, no one is like you
Noah, Noah , no one can love me like you do
How could i ever write a sad song
Waking up each morning in your arms
Noah, Nah , no one can love me like you do
There’s a magic place that you bring me
When you put your hands on my body
They become two mirrors of your heart
Strong and steady, perfectly tender
I could live in this magic forever
Let me lay in this heaven forever
Let me lay in this heaven forever
Let me lay in this heaven forever
Let me lay in this heaven forever
Noah, Noah, no one is like you
Noah, Noah , no one can love me like you do

Maybe I Was Wrong
05:16
|

|
Usually these days I can get back on track with 3 deep breaths
And usually these days it’s enough to touch my own body with these two hands…
But tonight I feel broken for you
Especially you
Particularly you
It has to be you
Incredibly you
Only you will do..
(Cuz what if I was wrong, what if I was wrong)
And it can take my breath away,
I can’t feel anything
Am I breathing?
Am I breathing?
(Cuz what if I was wrong, what if I was wrong)
Maybe I was wrong
I’m still missing you
And after all this time
I’m still missing you
I think I’m getting better at this thing they call living
Or if I’m honest, I might be pretending
Going past the physical, Into spiritual
But right now I’m just thinking of you
And I didn’t leave because I didn’t love you
I just didn’t really love my self
I’m trying hard just to love my self
I don’t know if I can love myself
Sometimes I get rush of that desire I once had
When I first saw you at our very first concert
Ariel East was playing but I mostly remember
The way your hair fell on the back of your neck
And I didn’t leave because I didn’t love you
I just knew you didn’t love yourself
I hope someday you can love yourself
I don’t know if you can love yourself…
Maybe I was wrong
I’m still missing you
And after all this time
I’m still missing you
Nothing is the same
Nothing will be the same
Nothing will be…
Nothing is the same
Nothing will be the same
Nothing will be…
Nothing is the same
Nothing will be the same
Nothing will be…

Gorgeous and moving, this album fills a musical void in my collection that I didn't know existed. With lyrics that speak about the human condition and instrumentals that have a medieval flair, this has become my new musical addiction 😁 Not a single note is wasted here

Untourable Album
by Men I Trust
supported by 4 fans who also own “Jonny (Deluxe)”
A truly stunning album that mentally transports you to foggy early morning streets, the pavement wet from recent rains. Dreary, but in a comforting way. Like sitting next to a window during a rainstorm, listening to the drops hit the glass while remaining warm. Never fails to make me feel safe.
