Did they take the moon you were after?
Give it back piece by piece
There was a room full of laughter
Now it speaks and speaks
There was a hum and a chatter
A card up your sleeve
Is this the womb you were after?
Never ever have to leave
Tiny piece of glass that I carry around
I grow habitual in my playground
Tell me when the sun shines bright
The way you move yourself through time
I thought you'd never ask
See you stumble around
Beautiful ritual in your hometown
There's a story when you went to fly
When you lost all the fear in your eyes
New wild fire each day
Give us heavy weather then you take it away
Breeze on the reason for leaving
Pulling me back to the places I'm free from
New wild fire each day
Give us heavy weather then you take it away
Breeze on the reason for leaving
Pulling me back to the places I'm free from
Two hands with the blood stains
Messing around with some loose change
You all you ever want is new things
You all you ever do is take take
Take a while to notice
The circle isn't broken
Pacing in the hallways always
Living under heavy shoulders
Daze another little day away
Hold me like your'e never coming back to me
Tell me all your recipe for alchemy
You all you ever do is take take
Take a while to show me
The fireflies they know me
Moving like this backwards circus
You didn't see it pass right through me
This is not a measure we make
Addicted to the moment and the pleasure intake
Come up with something better and I'm happy to chase you down
It's got a broken face
The microphone is humming on a burning plate
Fall into a pixelation
We work it out
New wild fire each day
Give us heavy weather then you take it away
Breeze on the reason for leaving
Pulling me back to the places I'm free from
New wild fire each day
Give us heavy weather then you take it away
Breeze on the reason for leaving
Pulling me back to the places I'm free from

Life as a Sigh
03:25

Half the places I like
Nowhere never lasts
As soon as I find out the lay
The unturned stones
Swing down the hawk upon my past
With a bird's eye view of all you do
Waiting on the crash
If only you could see this place
We brought together woven strings
All the scenes of Memory
Flow through you like a well
I climbed the city scape from hell
With a bird's eye view of all you do
Waiting on the crash.
The water rose and swallowed all the flowers
The coast and all the humming of the power
Living out the life as a sigh now
The best thing we could do would be to lie down
In the city you've assembled in your sleep
It's all your's now
Half the places I like
Nowhere never lasts
As soon as I find out my place
The un-turned stones
Swing down the hawk upon my past
With a bird's eye view of all you do
Waiting on the crash
The water rose and swallowed all the flowers
The coast and all the humming of the power
Living out the life as a sigh now
The best thing we could do would be to lie down
In the city you've assembled in your sleep
It's all your's now

Awake!
The summer days
Blissful and faint of focus
Do you notice a change?
Losing place
I don't think we're holding our weight
Taste
Just a little taste
While they empty the oceans
Render me tasteless
I swim out to find a dessert lake
We die out there
Held in slow motion
Progression end of session
What a funny way to go out
In case we learned our lesson
Tell it to me now
As far as I can tell
Evil just explains its self
It's busier than hell
You can drown it in the light you make
As far as I can tell
Evil just unfolds it's face
It's uglier than hell
But you can see it in the light of day
Lonely moon why are you staring?
All of the lost and weightless words
I'll see you soon if it's worth repairing
I never know just what you heard
Lonely sky, do you see us staring
Why do this stars come facing me
My life all stretched apart and tearing
I'll never know just what you see
Oh It goes beyond your damn shadow
Going off on all your realest of friends
When I'm caught between my bitch face and resting
No first reflections
Signals are sent
It's love in the language of laughter
What does it matter, It doesn't matter
With me or against don't lose me from within
It can all seem overwhelming
No end and no beginning
As far as I can tell
Evil just explains its self
It's busier than hell
You can drown it in the light you make
As far as I can tell
Evil just unfolds it's face
It's uglier than hell
But you can see it in the light of day
As far as I can tell
Evil just explains it's self
It's busier than hell
You can drown it in the light you make
As far as I can tell
Evil just unfolds it's face
It's uglier than hell
But you can see it in the light of day

Wanted Man

You're gonna have to find your own way back
I can only take you so far
I always know when my battery's dead
Do you know where we are?
I'm no good at directions
Lost in the way of the reckless
Babe you're wanted in so many states
Catch yourself winning an election
My eyes roll around so fast
With the ever-changing way of the sky
If I wonder where the planets are held
You show me the reason why
What lives at the foot of the bed
That could rock me up against this wall?
Limbs into stall, cusping in the fall
I like it when the ghosts ignore me
Know all your enemies stand next to me
Pain is the only thing protecting me
Tempted by the nature and place
Redemption is a matter of taste
Do I confuse my destiny
With who's texting me?
Pain is the only thing protecting me
A snapshot of my mind will always be replaced
My concern is that I'm not all here
That I don't know what's happening
All around me, everyone in fear
The length of straws they're grasping
Too many forces all beyond my reach
Too many souls right out there clapping
They're on the one, but I don't need to teach..
The doorways are collapsing
So surprised this one didn't land
Safe behind blue eyes of a wanted man
Oh I think I better go
When it's right to turn me in
You know I won't be mad
Go on and hold my drink
You could wash the whole night down
All the blood in the sink
Will be there in the morning
I never had the confidence to say
To keep you away from your knife
Tried to keep myself so safe
But it's starting to bore me
Tell me when you get there
All the way to heaven
You sold it with what seems fair
But I never learn my lesson
What becomes clear
In your state of levitation?
Folds until it tears
With all the little doors
It doesn't even remember
Know all your enemies stand next to me
Pain is the only thing protecting me
Tempered by the nature and place
Redemption is a matter of taste
Do I confuse my destiny, with who's texting me?
Pain is the only thing protecting me
A snapshot of my mind can always be replaced
My concern is that I'm not all here
That I don't know what's happening
All around me, everyone is scared
The length of straws they're grasping
Too many forces far beyond my reach
Too many souls right out there clapping
They're on the one but I don't need to teach
The doorways are collapsing
So surprised this one didn't land
Safe behind blue eyes of a wanted man
Oh I think I better go
When it's right to turn me in
You know I won't be mad
So surprised this one didn't land
Safe behind blue eyes of a wanted man
Oh I think I better go
When it's right to turn me in
You know I won't be mad

BEAUTIFUL ISLAND
Some are dying
Some are known by you
Please be kindly
Don't cut the line, just follow-through
When you leave me smiling
The creek below, it heard us sing
Beautiful island
Comes to the shore to feel the spring
Hold my wild tangles, and I'll tell you what I've learned
When everything feels mangled, take the time you need to hurt
The rude awakening
Sunny days all wasted slow
Make it distant and haunted
Make some changes before I go
It's ok to hang around here
I like you well
Feet that never touch the ground
You wear like hell
Hold my wild tangles, and I'll tell you what I've learned
When everything feels mangled, take the time you need to hurt
