A Dark Path
04:24
|

|
Down a dark path
Not first, not last
Once there was a hothead
Blowing
One there was a two face
Showing
As it unfolds
It gets darker
It gets darker
The roof above our heads
Spinning
And bears beside our bed
Grinning
As it unfolds
It gets darker
It gets darker
This is the end of you're story

This World
04:24

There's me
And there's you
What am I to do
What am I to do
This world of me and you
What am I to do
What am I to do
At the center
Where nothing else gets through
At the center
Where nothing else is true

Salt, Sun and Sand
02:48
|
|||
|
Foot on the floor
To stop the motion
But my head dips
Into the ocean
It's the salt, sun and sand in my eyes
What do I know?
I know what's broken
So I turn away
From the emotion
It's the salt, sun and sand in my eyes

Listen

And I still love you
But I used to like you too
Why step where you don't want to go
Why ask what you already know
You should listen
But I don't think you are
You want me near
But you push me so far
With a soft chalk heart
And such a blind hard head
Always on a train sitting still
Always you're own sleeping pill
You should listen
But I don't think you are
You want me near
But you pushed me so far
I know, you know, we know
And here we are now
You cover you're ears still
Cover nah nah na nah na
Cover nah nah na nah na
You should listen
But I don't think you are
You want me near
But you push me so far

Submarine

In my Submarine
I don't need much of anything
Sometimes I send up Flares
I wonder who's still out there
All this time and I still care
For you breathing in the air
Listen I have found
How to live
And not to drown
In my old machine
I don't want much of anything
Maybe alone by choice
Still I'm sick of my own voice
Small comfort in it's low noise
I withdraw and weigh my joys
Listen I have found
How to live
And not to drown
Listen just be brave
It's a home
And not a grave
In my useless dream
We don't care about anything
Under the moon so bright
I'm holding you through the night
All this time and still I might
Find you waiting in the light

The Question
07:23
|
|||
|
We used to kiss
Until our lips were blue
Now if you don't want me
I don't want you
But if you change your mind
I might too
And we forget to remember
And we forget to remember
I never ask the question because
I always knew what the answer was
We used to love
As if our love was glue
Now we have a lost key
And not a clue
But if you close your eyes
I might too
And we forget to remember
And we forget to remember
I never ask the question because
I always knew what the answer was

Blue Hour

Lets talk
About the Blue hour
Blue hour
Just a million things
Must change
Pull the shutters down
And walk away

Star

Yes, you're a star
Worst human so far
Guess you wouldn't know
People are glad when you go
You wound everyone
You're not above
Breaking things
That I love
There's that dark part of you're heart
Could you just be sweet today
You win anyway
Maybe you're face
Someday
Will stick that way
It's just not true
Any word out of you
You're eyes are the key
People can see that you're empty
You wound everyone
You pass out shame
Think you know everything
There's that dark part of you're heart
Could you just be sweet today
You win anyway
Maybe you're face
Someday
Will stick that way

Gulf
05:02
|
|||
|
This is what happens when
You don't think about
What I think about
There's a gulf
Between us all
We are
Forever
Separate
This is where it begins
I don't care about
What you care about
There's a gulf
Between us all
We are
Forever
Separate
This is not helpful when
We just scream about
What we scream about
There's a gulf
Between us all
We are
Forever
Separate

Devil
03:40
|

|
Rotten through and through
Don't think, that I see you
Watching for my fall
Waiting to take it all
I ignore you
But you don't go away
If knocked out of air
Then I know you'll be there
I'm not always strong
You love when I do wrong
I ignore you
But you don't go away
You're smiling' is the proof
Of a real mean sweet tooth
With a poison kiss
You hit and never miss
I adore you
But you don't go away

I'm sorry
For the way that I am
The way I am
She said
Don't worry
The way that I am
The way I lose
My head
He said
I'm sorry
I'm sorry I never knew I was lonely
