Visions
04:59
|

i can't relax
forgot how to make it
can't get it back
don't know how to save this
i can't deny
i've seen the visions
behind my eyes
i've seen the visions
they come from all sides
oh how did this happen?
nowhere to hide
as the clouds start to blacken
fire on the lake
i've seen the visions
mind full of snakes
i've seen the visions
why am i afraid?
what have i become?
here comes the sun
let it creep through my eyelids.

Dusted
06:09
|

dust
blowing down the highway
grinds between my teeth
rolling thunder
over the prairies
like endless waves of sleep
you were standing by the car
your skin was showing through your shirt
your breath like tiny diamonds
shining high then twinkling in the dirt
your eyes were like daggers
sharp
aimed at the middle of my skull
"can we get in the fucking car
I'm hungry and it's starting to get cold"
i said 'the engine's broken down there's not way for you to get warm
there's a blanket in the trunk i suggest you take it and try and stay calm"

To Arrive
02:06
|
|||
call me late to walk to the store
you're too hungover to walk alone
step outside it's way too cold
you forgot your gloves on the table at home
got an extra pair if you don't mind
you just shove your hands in a pocket of mine
feel you warm hands next to mine
feel you warm hands next to mine
you ask me "what's that stupid grin for?"
and I tell you what it's for
i've been waiting for you to arrive
i've been waiting for you to arrive
i've been waiting for you to arrive
i've been waiting for you to arrive

Belong
02:47
|
|||
i feel so strange
out of place out, out of sorts, out of my mind
where do i begin?
it all feels so wrong
don't expect you to understand
that i don't belong
that i don't belong
all the stars in the sky
stare, see right through me in the dark
like a thousand eyes
no matter how i try
can't escape their constant gaze
as the clouds roll by
as the clouds roll by

Anytime
04:49
|
|||
late to sleep
and so early to rise
get out of bed
just to crawl back inside
i could be anything you want
and more i guess
if i were a mountain of courage
but i'm a house made of glass
wish i could tell you
what's really on my mind
the thought that it all could come crashing down
at anytime
at anytime
at anytime
at anytime

Nest
05:20
|
|||
well it's true
the sun sits higher this time of year
hung so low this December
never thought it would reappear
then it came
bright as anything
a wash of light
blinding everything
there's a weight
hanging around my neck
and she says it's all inside my head
brings me back, lays my head to rest
in my chest, skinny fingers build a nest
there's a weight
hanging around my neck
and she says it's all inside my head
brings me back, whispers behind my ear
"it's okay" and everything disappears

July (Alright)
05:14
|
|||
the third of July
brings a record high
when the heatwave strikes
i run and hide
as the sun
beats down
from the sky
i just try
i just try
to be alright
summer days
pass me by
all my friends
play outside
i just sit
in the garbage and the shit
wonder how you're getting on with it
and i hope you find what you're looking for
and i hope you find what you're looking for
and i hope you find what you're looking for
and i hope you find what you're looking for
cos baby i love you more

When I'm Gone
03:23
|
|||
when i die
i don't want no fancy funeral
i just want to see my friends for one last time
no more tears, no pretty faces bowed in silence
a few kind words about my life well that'd be nice
wouldn't it be nice?
when i'm gone i know that you'll move on without me
start your families with your husbands with your wives
and in time i hope you'll forget you despise me
recall the moments when we grew each other's lives
wouldn't it be nice?
