Oh Sweet Nothing
03:48

oh sweet nothing
don't grow old without me
don't look back in the rain pretending
that you do not believe
behind the building waiting
you dragged me here to say
oh sweet nothing
I'll never let you walk alone again
now ivy grows up the side of the brick
to the door without a name
but I know the number, I'll remember forever
the calling of my shame
you better believe me now, I'll show you how
the reach of my hand telling
I think I'll never see beyond the length
of my hearts' swelling
oh sweet nothing
don't grow old without me
don't look back in the rain pretending
that you do not believe
behind the building waiting
you dragged me here to say
oh sweet nothing
I'll never let you walk alone again
now days are long and nights are longer
and don't ya dare tell me I am stronger
I think I'll never find the courage in mine
to trust another lover
down in the street he did it neat
they still what they cannot borrow
I think I'll never reach beyond the depth
of my heart's sorrow
oh sweet nothing
don't grow old without me
don't look back in the rain pretending
that you do not believe
behind the building waiting
you dragged me here to say
oh sweet nothing
I'll never let you walk alone again

Watership Down
05:29
|
|||
we zipped down a flat highway
on the edge of sunlight
squinting against delusion
searching for the vanishing
I'll hold your hand until I crash the car
I'll give my dying thoughts to you
once we were just skinny trees
with patterns and visions carved into skin
but anyone can trip over love
this hemisphere in chains
together we are untouched ruin
so ruin ruin ruin ruin ruin me
watership down
I think I lost you now
said if you love me then you'll break me
you said you're already broken
my grief is a garden, I will hide behind the shade
of lightning, teardrops, my heart is a diamond breaking
the tighter you grip my hand, the further away I am
barely a whisper now, we burn like the setting sun
but the burning keeps me alive
the burning keeps me alive
the burning keeps me
the burning keeps me
the burning keeps me alive
watership down
I think I lost you now
watership down
I know I lost you now

A New Moon
03:20
|

I know you have a broken heart
you're carrying the weight
of who you used to be
and who you wanna be
I know you'll be out late
drivin round the streets
you used to take with her
a ghost in your life
frightens you away
you're cursing every thought
tongue like a starburst
fingers tied in knots
keepin up with the moon
wondering about you
you're a ghost in your own life
you're a ghost in your own life
you're a ghost in your own life

Before I Fall
05:36
|
|||
with you it seemed like I was
stuck moving buckets of water
in between my lungs
ripped out of dreams like I was
cutting up our memories to put them
in a magazine
and edit out the sad parts
edit out the sad parts
edit out the sad parts
I'm hiding inside me
before I fall in love again
resigned to cry
as if she had a lover to live for
a secret to whisper
remember how he used to chase
the ink from my pen
I could not extinguish him
and edit out the sad parts
edit out the sad parts
edit out the sad parts
I'm hiding inside me
before I fall in love again
I'm trying to be nothing
before I fall in love again
I know you see me
so why won't you talk to me
I know you love me
so why won't you be with me
I'm hiding inside me
before I fall in love again
I'm trying to be nothing
before I fall in love again

Leave
04:53
|
|||
leave me out
I feel forever damned
to slip between the cracks
leave me out
like bodies left to rot
I sink behind and wait for my
blood to clot
leave me out
the tap is running cold
I flood my lungs so you can't hear me
growing old
leave me out
I feel forever chained
to be in love with pain
so leave me out
so leave me out
say you love me now
you cried out loud
send me back in time
to when my body was mine
so love me now
if we're forever damned
to chase the tails of burnt out stars
then have my hand, the world is ours
to drown in

Mental Car Crashing
03:53
|
|||
don't touch me
if you're only going to run
from the site of our love
in the naked dawn
don't call out to me
if you're going to use the tone
that you learned from me
softly between moans
don't look for me
smiling teeth clenched tight behind
the narrow lens of swollen eyes
no don't ask if I'm alright
i'm alright
I'm alright
I'm alright, alright, alright
we're the stars of the bars
and I'm mental car crashing
stars of the bars of the bars
and I'm mental car crashing
you
into you
into you
so don't search for me
when you're trembling in the dark
when you're examining your own heart
you wonder
you wonder who you really truly are
we're the stars of the bars
and I'm mental car crashing
stars of the bars of the bars
and I'm mental car crashing
you
into you
into you
no
don't ask if I'm alright
don't ask if I'm alright
I'm alright
I'm alright
I'm alright, alright, alright

Self Portrait
04:48
|
|||
this is a self portrait
I'll only show myself
she disappeared quietly
without a big bang
no tears were cried
words murmured
shoulder's bent
no one hungered for her smile
which is now the scent of dread
she slipped suddenly into the night
the path of the highway her guiding light
the road is straight as she closes her eyes
she didn't join the stars or the fires
shadows bend around her
a final kiss or collapse
as cars drive over
crushed leaves in the street
dew clung softly to twigs
she longed to feel
as loved as them
she longed to feel
touched by the wind

My heart is empty
Your eyes are dull
Once we were hungry
Now we are full
These ties that bind us
Can't beat these chains
If love is shelter
I'm gonna walk in the rain
You were my angel
Now you are real
So like a stranger
Colder than steel
The morning after
No one should brag
If love is a red dress
Well hang me in rags
Oh well, there goes the fairy tale
Lord, ain't it a shame
In all this comfort, I can't take the strain
If we played even
I'd be your queen
But someone was cheatin'
And it wasn't me
I played on the table
You held something back
If love is aces, gimme the jack
