Broken Heart Incision
04:33

|
I died yesterday
never asked or answered nothing more to say
I tried to get along, get along
I tried to be alone, to be alone
you came to my house and called my name
now you're watching and waiting daylight dissipating
now you're on a mission to make a broken heart incision
I went away yesterday
would have changed a lot of things if only I could have stayed
I tried to get along, get along
I tried being alone, being alone
you came to my house and took me away
now you're watching and waiting daylight dissipating
now you're on a mission to make a broken heart incision
I tried to get along, get along
I tried being alone, being alone
they came to your house and took you away
now you're watching and waiting daylight dissipating
now you're on a mission to make a broken heart incision
make a broken heart incision, make a broken heart incision
now you're on a mission to make a broken heart incision

I knew when you said it, we were going to regret it
nothing ever happens here...right? right?
nothing ever happens here...right? right?
stuck your tongue out at fate you know it
rock steady then the wind starts blowing
nothing ever happens here...right? right?
a good start to a very good year
you say the words to the indifferent universe
you say the words to the indifferent universe
I knew when you said it, our hope would be tested
nothing ever happens here...right? right?
a good start to a very good year...right. right.
you say the words to the indifferent universe
you say the words to the indifferent universe

Skate

you keep me up all night
you make my head feel lighter
ice skating all over the city
chasing ourselves back around
you look young and wild and pretty
the sun is a beat that's going down on us
Ahh
don't stop I haven't had enough
I came here to touch you, show you
what I want to do is take you
to another time signature
and feel our place in all this space
Ahh
you keep me up all night
you make my head feel lighter
before it was so easy to guard the castle and gate
until your love released me it's when I learned to skate
now don't stop
Ahh
don't stop I haven't had enough
I came here to touch you, show you
what I want to do is take you
to another time signature
and feel our place in all this space
Ahh

Lost Without a Star
03:25
|
|||
|
just once I'd like to scream out loud
then you would know
where I can be found
I'm lost without
lost without a star
your gravity crushes me
pulls me down into the core
of Eden's apple
I'm starved for you

Portside

I watch the day wash the rain away
hiding in my car under a boulder of a thought
some forgotten anchor holds there
with the salt and the sea things
do you see things like that, do you see things
beautiful is a wave and its undoing
like a strand of hair, a part of you
that floats up in a current of air
up and away and lands...
on some forgotten beach and there
some forgotten anchor floats there
with the salt and the sea things
do you see things like that, do you see things
I watch the day wash the rain away

Before Hello
03:38
|
|||
|
lightning flashes and the room stands still underneath your gaze
I don't know you but it feels like we will get together some day
he wants he wants he wants to know
even before we've even said hello
are you gonna be bad for me?
are you gonna be bad?
trust gets lost trust is found
the head and the heart battle it out
will you resist it or will you risk it all
to find out
striking glances with a truth to spill over me in waves
in your eyes I see you're fighting for real threatening our someday
but he wants he wants he wants to know
yea he wants he wants he wants to know
are you gonna be bad for me?
are you gonna be bad?
he wants he wants he wants to know
even before we've even said hello
are you gonna be bad for me?
are you gonna be bad?
trust gets lost trust is found
the head and the heart battle it out
will you resist it or will you risk it all
to find out, all to find out
he wants he wants he wants to know
even before we've even said hello
are you gonna be bad for me?
are you gonna be bad?
are you gonna be bad for me?
are you gonna be bad?

Mystery
04:26

I said I wouldn't cry but you knew better than that
I wanted to believe your promises could be true and you could be too
you didn't do what you said you'd do, say what you really meant
always keep me guessing
about the kind of mystery love can be
now I can't get back all the hours I spent waiting for you
wondering if you're mood would be right
if you'd even come home to me that night
that's the life for you not for me
you didn't do what you said you'd do say what you really meant
always keep me guessing
about the kind of mystery love can be
when all is revealed you'll know I still
couldn't wish for you the pain you gave to me
call me names, push me to the floor
tear me down, kick in an open door
o that's the life for you, but not for me
when all is revealed you'll know I still
couldn't wish for you the pain you gave to me
ohh

What Are You Waiting For
03:14
|
|||
|
what are you waiting for?
your life waits outside that door
tied to a weeping tree
hands bound and body
what has it done to you?
look but don't see the truth
tied to the suffering
hear yourself screaming
what are you waiting for?
you've given all there's nothing more
time has forgiven things
that you carried instead of wings
what has this done to you?
look but you don't see the truth
open wide and believe
you are now and were always free
drown me and I open my mouth
wound me and I beat the scars out
drown me and I open my mouth
wound me and I beat the scars out

afraid it will rain
it's no comfort anymore
woke up and stream was rising
searching to find me
now the lightest mist falls
and my heart drops a beat
afraid it will rain
it's no comfort anymore
coming in through the windows
knocking down all doors
now the lightest mist falls
and my heart drops a beat
woke up and stream was rising
searching to find me
now the lightest mist falls
and my hear drops a beat
