Half Awake
04:39
|
|
||
You cannot hold me, I have no collar
No trail for you to follow
And I think I've chewed off all of my connections
Hope to God I'm set adrift from my connections
And I don't know where to go
I gotta switch off to get on
I nearly forgot my name
Must have been half awake
Must have been half awake
And you should know better than to forget me like that
The time to bite has passed
I need to clear my head and shake my humours up
It's time to leave this life,
This time is mine
And I don't know where to go
I gotta switch off to get on
I nearly forgot my name
Must have been half awake
Must have been half awake
It's safe to walk away, we know how deep it goes
It's safe to walk away, we know how deep it goes

Call Her Name
05:59

|

Laid out at long last, a space to break his weight
It's starting to slow now.
It all comes undone through caw and ash
And a heart in the west
I was setting back my time just to keep you for a while
You break the line, you get my senses fired
They all rise up while I am reaching out
Step by step now.
One way around,
Keep your eyes dead, we’re stooping to fit
I feel her coming up again,
I'm too awake for now.
When fear no longer holds her fast
Call her name and trick her out,
She's just as tall as you want
Foil it up, go to ground
Gonna face that bad moon down,
I store my power where I can
Until I come again

This Is Not My Home
05:12
|
|
||
Get into the back before you crash
Metal on the side is weeping
It's head-down all the way,
Collecting speed
All sound is at our tails
It's good to be this way
No moon, no stars
It's just a blast to get me back on course
There's nothing left to keep me here
This is not my home
We'll leave it all behind, bailing out
There must be somewhere else where I can stop
It's a lonely charge, traveling on,
Getting free now,
I disconnect, forget it all
While signposts crack

Aqualapping
05:28
|
|
||
I know that river well, I stole from its gut when I was shaping
Made sure my toes were lipped for I know, I know there are secrets I could get
If I could only make it there
I'd better hold my breath
Feeling overshadowed, Feeling bombarded,
For all my sounds are beating with every crawl I make
I got to get me deeper to escape
I'll bend within my space
That river holds the way
Aqualapping, everything is crushing me
While my ghosts are gathering,
And they've nearly got my feet,
Or they're digging for something,
Well, I just gotta go,
Just gotta go
It's just a way to keep my head low
It's just a way to keep my head low
Aqualapping, everything is crushing me
While my ghosts are gathering,
And they've nearly got my feet,
Or they're digging for something,
Well, I just gotta go,
Just gotta go

Ribbons
05:30
|
|
||
This room is older than us together
My head can pound, my heart pounds faster
Come kiss me better where I grazed my shoulder
The rain is up, harder than it's ever been
The world outside this life could never trouble us
You'd have to cut me to get me off your back

When I Get Over You
03:44
|
|
||
When I get over you remind me what to do,
Watch my step with the next one
Where the truth stems from is where your secret walls cave in
And the face that I loved grows thin
You could never love enough not matter what you get
Your time's taken up with your safety nets
Everybody wants a piece of you and your crazy world
But I know that you want it all
It seems strange getting over you
When all I loved,
When all I might have loved,
Could have been the things I wrapped around you
I felt the poison from your mouth when you let it out
And I knew that I was nothing new to you
I was part of your dreams but I became real
I became too real

Deflect
05:39
|
|
||
As still as I am keeping I can cut through all of this
It's just the strongest feeling; my shield goes up and I deflect
My heart is strong enough to stay online if I just hide out
It's getting harder to unlearn
Come home.
Energy escaping, it's like you're slowly burning up
When it all comes charging in I'll try to make it stop
It keeps me spun, keeps me drunk
Out in my space
I send you light, I send you love
Always
X
Is there anyone out there?
I'm shutting down again
Are you receiving anything at all?

Spellbound
05:09
|
|
||
In the cove of the seahouse he burnt his cradle down
He watched it breathe and cough
In a bed of ghosts and dead skin we kill the clock and kiss
I touch you and open you
And deep in your darkest wounds I place my loneliness
All asleep and blessed and prayed
My own head awash with waves
Everything is set in place
I watch for you and the light in your room
The ground is warm after the storm
I sleep in your shirt and smile in dreams
I'm deeper than I've ever been
I am spellbound,
I have been charmed right where I stand
My soul is an old coat ablaze with love
Lover, I call to you

Come Around
04:10
|
|
||
Your delicious mind all in white
Suckles in the warmth, echoes in the light
I knew that I would come back soon,
My path is looped and tied to the moon
It feels so good to be back again
My twin is dead but I can't follow
Strap her to my back, scream until the earth opens
I must not mull, I must not harbour
I've so far to climb
My heels are dug, my boots snug,
How I will shine!
Everything will come around - Got my magic rushing through my hands
Everything will come around - Buzz so much that I can barely stand
Everything will come around - Never thought I'd get another chance
To come around
In my life I've been open, lived a little just for you
Dug the earth, filled a pocket,
Hung around a while to see what would follow

In The Way
04:20
|
|
||
Now, before it turns,
Before we change,
I gotta move to figure out
To pin it down while I can
It gets into my sleep,
Never stops to let me breathe
Gotta kill it now
While we can
You should not be here,
Don’t you know you only get in the way
