the more i learn, the less makes sense
the weight will crush my brain, i think it's time to run away
fill the tank and blast off
all our things will grow dust, and the bills will pile up
all our things will grow dust, and our landlords will kick us out
but i'm at home when i'm the little spoon
i feel at home when i'm yr little spoon

Chasing Our Tails
05:41
|
|||
|
a tiny sound
crawls in the ear
fly in a web
buzz buzz buzz buzzing
reflection steals
a little more each time
the light in your eyes
is so dull
buzz buzz buzz buzzing
spider's sucking all the blood away
always in circles
taking the bronze
at chasing our tails
left in the dust
by our plans
spinning in circles
the landscape melts
to a cardboard backdrop
for a school play
always in circles
we all fall down

Something Hidden
02:15
|
|||
|
there's something hidden in the gold beneath your skin
glowing waves crash against each move you make
like it's trying to escape
the way you look it hurts forever
a pain I always seek out
somewhere distant that gold will shine many years from now

Emma

it can't be comfortable to sleep that way
your back is bent, eyes half open
in limbo
emma, don't grow up
'cuz something evaporates, and floats up into space
it orbits around, but never comes back down
emma, don't grow up
the moon is made from the dust of things we've loved

Winter Skeletons
04:53
|
|
||
|
the sun rises, we soak it in
dig out of the nest we've made
pull the flowers from their graves
nerves crawl thru us like vines
hair grows long and wild
our blood's filled with sap - sticky and sweet
ripened fruit ready to burst
grab everything 'til our hands are full
but we fall apart
when autumn comes
bits of skin crunch
under our feet as we walk
hearts roll onto snow, tiny avalanche
slowly dissolving
we are nothing more than winter skeletons
we can't move so we just wait
hibernation brings strange dreams
they slip into the spaces we've chiselled away
after everything is lost, we find comfort some way
hoping that when the snow melts, the landscape looks the same
but we fall apart
when autumn comes
bits of skin crunch
under our feet as we walk
hearts roll onto snow, tiny avalanche
slowly dissolving
we are nothing more than winter skeletons
we can't move so we just wait
we can't move so we just wait

Dandelions
04:04
|
|||
|
a shady place, a bank safe
camouflaged lock and key
hide and seek
one, Mississippi, two...
not enough mystery, it lacks a certain I don't know
coughing up a seed caught in the back of your throat
with broken stems at your feet
wishes blown away never float back
can't let it show
it's got to get some sun another way
sit back and ask, is this all that's grown?

Unsettle
04:00
|
|||
|
rotting flesh, sequences of agony
never viewed clearly
dried up hope has a familiar ring
a lasting grief seems to be the thing
that is the trend this year
why do we fight when it's just easier to give up
(all I know is I'm gonna get left behind)
don't give up, make some noise
freedom doesn't present itself
in a timely or convenient fashion
push this reality to forefront,
and let it become a decision
to stand up
(all I know is I'm gonna get left behind)
if you're fed up, then make a choice
please stand up when told otherwise

Gravity
04:31
|
|||
|
always weightless, tied to a stick
illusion of flying
like swimming in the shallow end,
toes scraping the ground
but that's okay, I'm afraid of heights
never know which steps to take
if i let go, i'll just float away
until there's no more air to breathe
|

Patient Architecture
02:07
|
|
||
|
tonight I bet there'll be lights writing in the sky
and all the shapes and things we see take a billion years to make
this patient architecture has stood for so long
but we know it will all be gone some day

Capricorn

memories from years ago shine brighter than all the time that have crept away since then
but i'll carry them to the end
they still mean everything
you'll always be running wild
faster than i'll ever keep up
but I still see you there
our friendship's a starry sky
exploding suns are slow motion fireworks
tracing lines that always lead back here
|

and it's strange to think about the things you think about
when you try to fall asleep but you can't
everything's so slow in the dark
everything moves so slow in the dark
and those things you kept inside your head
never stay where you left them
but i guess it's always for the best
everything's so slow in reverse
everything moves so slow in reverse

Light Years / Exit
06:55
|
|||
|
feeling like a lunatic screaming the end is near (abandon ship)
but warnings are the most mistrusted sentences
"abandon ship" falls on deaf ears
let's build a rocket ship
leave this mess behind
and light years will pass us by
caught in comets, side by side
GET ME OUT OF HERE
