The Moment
I might have known
in a better moment
but Love the moment
was not on my side
Sometimes you do things and sometimes you won't
and it feels like you will things but maybe you don't
I go to the bottom
bring my pearl a pearl
she's seen enough
for one little girl
I know home just isn't home
ever since it happened
and I know Love I know
it was happening all the time
All the time
All the time
All the time
I might have known
in a better moment
but Love the moment
was not on my mind
Sometimes you do things and sometimes you won't
and it feels like you will things but maybe you don't
I go to the bottom
bring my pearl a pearl
she's seen enough
for one little girl
I know home just isn't home
ever since it happened
and I know Love I know
it was happening all the time
All the time
All the time
All the time

Billy
Billy in the lowground
Billy getting high
Billy be my lover
before I die
Who would blame a soul
for living while they can
When the light gets low Billy
take my hand
Isn't there somewhere we can be alone
Isn't there somewhere we can be alone
Billy in the lowground
Billy by the sea
Billy in the backseat
Just park it in the trees
Isn't there somewhere we can be alone
Isn't there somewhere we can be alone
Billy I am happy
Billy I am free
Billy love has found us
Billy you and me
Billy in the open
for everyone to see
Billy is this happening?
Billy this is my dream
Billy take me somewhere I have never been
Billy take me somewhere I have never been

Don’t Lie About Your Dreams
Don’t lie about your dreams
if you can’t tell the truth
Keep it to yourself
like a seed
underneath the soil
with everything it needs
You can feel the seasons
coming from a ways
Lighting searing open
the Sky and You and I
Yeah you can feel the seasons
Here comes everything we need
Here comes everything we need
Don’t lie about your dreams
If you can’t tell the truth
Keep it to yourself
Like a seed
Underneath the soil
With everything it needs

Hospital
You don't have to do this
Put yourself through this
I know they don't give you options but
listen to me
I've got some land that you could die on
a field
a forest
Your face in the breeze
Hospital schmospital!
The highway at sunrise!
I love how you love
the window rolled down
I'll call everyone
and they'll meet us out there
It might happen fast
but we'll all be there
Just say the word
and I'll make it happen
a field
a forest
and all of your friends

Texas Peach
I wrote you a poem
about a warm texas peach
you let slip from your mouth
before we messed up the sheets
in that little motel
with the window wide open
You were freezing but I wanted to hear the rain
And I wonder if you've
ever read the damned thing
You were already leaving
You were already gone
And how I love you for leaving
How we both have moved on
In the market this morning
I let myself taste a peach
and it took me to Texas
and my god was it sweet

Sun Keeps Shining (Down and Inside)
Love keeps shining through the clouds
like sunshine
on a day when I could use it
On a day when I’ve been
down and inside
for so so long
Down and Inside
for so so long
Love keeps shining through the clouds
like sunshine
on a day when I could use it
On a day when I’ve been brooding
and it feels like the 47th of December
Like the moon got stuck
Like the moon got stuck
My eyes keep laughing and I’m
feeling fine
I don’t give a damn if it’s
been some time
I just shake it off
and get to walking
Shoulders down and
Breathin easy
Nowhere to be and all day to get there
Nowhere to be and all day to get there
Love keeps shining through the clouds
Like sunshine on a day when I could use it
On a day when I’ve been
down and inside for so so long
Down and inside for so so long
Down and inside for so so long
Down and inside for so so long

True Needs (NBD)
Sometimes I get to feeling like I'm stuck
Like I'm just looking
looking looking
for some way that I should choose to change this
But somehow I know
Somehow I know
If I hold out long enough
If I hold out long enough
Sometimes its Fuck!
What's the point of even trying?
Would I know a good thing if I saw it?
Would I know a good thing if I saw it?
Sometimes I think
if I don't act
if I don't do something
it's never going to happen
But somehow I know
Somehow I know
If I hold out long enough
If I hold out long enough
Right then the right thing
will be right there to do
And I'll just do it
NBD
Are these the true needs of the moment?
Are these the true needs of the moment?
Are these the true needs of the moment?
Somehow I know
Somehow I know
If I hold out long enough
If I hold out long enough
Right then the right thing
will be right there to do
And I’ll just do it
NBD

You Deserve a Love Song
You deserve a love song
You deserve it all
Dreams you never dreamed of
Every little dream you can’t recall
Coming home to something
coming home to you
Some of us have a got a big bill coming
Some of us already paid
We’re gonna get what’s coming
at the end of the day
you’re going to get what you deserve
You deserve a love song

Matt Foster Winnipeg, Manitoba
Never quite what you’d expect, Matt Foster is truly unplaceable. Matt moves the room, stirring something in the crowd, without drawing any attention. The music grinds, pops and surprises. At turns soft and lilting, at turns careening out of lane.
