Looking back
Before my eyes turned red
Before my lips turned black
Before the windscar
The sacred jewel
Shines darker when you’re hittin me
So don’t stop hitting me
Til i stop moving
Never felt an aura like this
Gotta run to the sidewalk
Don’t have time to talk to my first kiss
Short black fur tossed in the wind
Comb the street for traces
Something to hold on to
Let’s start at beginning again
Let’s skip to the end
Let’s start in the middle
Let’s skip to the end
Let’s start in the middle

Birds

Can't speak, got wires in my head
Can't stop this moving ahead
Increase intensity, sweat pooling in my bed
Can't dream, too many tears are falling
Too many years of falling apart, over over again
Can't speak
Can't swallow
this bitter pill
Numb and empty, sore and hollow
The birds the birds
Flying in circles
Higher higher
Climb into the ether
The birds the birds
Flying in circles
Back to where you run away from
Can't breathe
Heart pumping in my chest
Can't stop this voice in my head
Clock ticks back down down from 10 again
Can't talk
Just leave me alone
Can't walk legs buckle and fold
Clock ticks back down down from 10 again
The birds the birds
Flying in circles
Higher higher
Climb into the ether
The birds the birds
Flying in circles
Higher higher
Fly in the ether
The body the body
Lying in stillness
Dust to dust
Back to the darkness
The birds the birds
Lying in stillness
Back to where you run away from
Run away

Recess

The want to leave
The need to stay in captivity
Out of the light of day
In the night now
The blue light roams
In the forest
The lantern starts to grow
I believe you
The glass is broken up
We can fix this
Breaking in we're breaking up
We'll find a way around this
I know we will
We'll find a way over it
Or else we'll spill
Our guts out on the kitchen table
I hold you upside down
Find a way around
Our thoughts are scattered
Splattered on the wall
Reach down and pick me up
Screaming bloody hell
I just want to touch you
Feel you in my bones
Take the pain away
Let's take it

Point of You
04:32
|
|||
|
Under the pressure of your thumb, slipping
Leaving trails of dust behind
Sweating through the pain
Underwater bells are ringing
Deep sea creatures singing
Laughing, we are
Is it wrong to say I love you
Sitting up I’m dizzy with the blood rush seeing red
Is it wrong to say I feel you
Sitting down in darkness on the altar seeing black
A joke cast in the dark
Screw your art
Water you are the weaver
Give me what you want to see
Give her what you need
Need forgiveness
I am the giver
You receive her
I’m not innocent
It’s just too easy
For I am the giver, you receiver
Tell me the point of you
Under the pressure of your gaze, dripping
Leaving trails of dust behind
Living through the haze
Underwater boys are swimming
Deep end waves are breaching
Laughing, they are
Is it wrong to say I love you
Sitting up I’m dizzy with the blood rush seeing red
Is it wrong to say I feel you
Laying down in darkness on the altar seeing black
I’m the receiver you are the giver
Tell me what you wanna hear from me
Giver you’re the receiver will you let me be your fever
Water you are the weaver
Give me what you want to see
Give her what you need
Need forgiveness
I am the giver
You receive her
I’m not innocent
It’s just too easy
For I am the giver, you receiver
Tell me the point of you

Hip Check
02:33

Home is not a place that I want to go back to tonight
Street lights beat down on my face
Numb lips losing touch and sight
Black veil covers your face, take aim across empty space
Running blind through a murder of crows
Running blind through a murder of crows
Now get a little closer
If you wanna go go again
Say get a little closer if you wanna get it
Hip check time to flip the record
If you wanna go go again
Hip check time to flip the record
If you wanna go again
Streets crumble under our feet
Free fall into the dark and the deep
Shots ring out from the car
In the middle of nowhere
Owls flying into the sun
In the valley of the bleached bones
Running blind through a murder of crows
Running blind through a murder of crows
Now now get a little closer
If you wanna go go again
Say get a little closer if you wanna get it
Hip check it's time to flip the record
If you wanna go again
Hip check it's time to flip the record
If you wanna go again

All Fall Down
03:49
|
|||
|
Days they run together
Like oil on canvas they run
Boiling and burning tossing and turning
At night they stand still
Like tar on feathers they burn
Boiling and burning tossing and turning
Time won't stop till we all fall down
Little portraits little clowns
Time won't stop till we all give up
Broken mirrors broken down
The dog she hunts the plastic wound
The cat she howls at the plastic moon
Spiders catch no prey for me
So don't pray for me
Running through the forest
Like animals, we run
Can't catch my breath, moving so slow now
Pacing back and forth now
The mystery it burns
Boiling and burning tossing and turning

Downbeat
02:56
|

|
Waking up, It’s been a hundred years
Since I saw the sun beat down
One hundred years since I crawled out of my hole
I’m going out of my head, what happened?
Don’t want to leave this cave today
I’m going out of my head, what happened?
Enter temple
Swim in the water
Parts of monsters
Dropping explosions
Into my hearts
Falling over game over game over
Sit by the fire til morning comes
Stripped of all my earthly possessions
Find my way to the top again
One way out
One way down
I’m going out of my head, what happened?
Since I saw the sun beat down
Can’t beat me down

Strange Man
02:39
|

|
He walked down the street
He knocked on the door
& I had a knife
& I had a gun
He walked really fast so fast
My dog started to bark
He's a strange man
What’s his name
Walked down the street
So strange stranger
My heart starts to beat
Keep watching tv
Get up from the couch
He runs away

Off The Grid

Living off the grid
Ain't as easy as I thought it would be
I miss everything
I tell you what
I changed my mind
I came all of the time
Living off the grid
Ain't as easy it seems
Oh hell man
Ain't easy as it seems
To go without for more than a little while
Go on home
I'll be a good boy now
I'll be on my best behavior
I don't mind taking care of you
I don't mind cleaning up
I don't mind taking care of you as long as you die
I don't want to let you go
But I'll have the conversation
I don't mind dusting off
The cobwebs off your life
I don't mind taking care of you as long as you die
I don't want to let you go
But I'll have the conversation
I won't leave you by a side
