'Til The Wonders RiseCop soul and a deadpan ear, lo and behold it
Which one do I let in if my guard is constantly lifted?
Only dance to words written in water
I lost you in a silver lake, it's cruel but true
The ties are waiting for you to bind
Drunk with lament, honeybee stay on top of your mind
With the devil come dancing every night 'til the wonders rise
Now I drink the promise of clear water
For I have crawled a hundred miles sidewise
The ties are waiting for you to bind
We're the overestimated underdogs
What you await from us, you can get for yourself
Arcane EffigiesAnd it's a sweet sickness surfing my soul
I watch the dogs at night from my window
They howl a loss of control, as do my habits
I'm taking extra classes in new politics
Hey rudy rudy, shy cynic to be
The sun is shining down on our arcane effigies
And I'm a cold partial to translocation
I live in a town with no acclamation for community
And hapless sick lay on doorsteps of beauty
And the privileged are unhappy
Hey rudy rudy, shy cynic to be
The sun is shining down on our arcane effigies
Hey rudy rudy, stop shadowing me
The sun us shining down on our arcane effigies
Able Moving HeartsI broke fall from nothing much at all and tangled with the uninspired
I read pages of past ages and the workings of a lost mind
It’s the roaring of a bright sky that remains behind closed doors
Remember, these things are no ones but yours
Now someone somewhere is quoting Billy for me
But I’ve got taboo boundaries as they be
That make all the things I believed when I was seventeen
Just posters on walls, song lyrics and dreams
It took more than I could ask for and I hung on the edge of disgrace
I gave it back to wherever it came from and left without a face
And the hopelessness it rides us under a dark and helpless cloud
That watches over us so proud
And I lay here gently cut in two
With a crushing apathy against you
And like a heart of gold, I swing from inside busted ribcage bones
All the way home
And so now before I’m broke again, how long will it be
‘Cause I’ve got taboo boundaries as they be
That make all the things I believed when I was seventeen
Just posters on walls, song lyrics and dreams
On A Clear Day You Can See YourselfOn a clear day you can see yourself
In real estate and shop windows
I'm all ears today and besides it's your birthday,
What else can I do
I'm insatiable. Inner-animal
Goddamn it there's no reasonable telling why
I'm the tick tick-tocking on the wall
Red, fine, crooked lines and all
Between the time you bide
And the time you waste
With haste we steady go
Taken for a long bitter joke
I'm melting to the road, the endless kind
We're shrinking our damn guts to save for enough
We'll cheat until we're rich as shit, open up
And tell me tell me what is wrong with a little cheapened sale
A symbol for what I disgust
Now show me what is real
Matthew's BabyI show my faith in a crowd though I was never lost anyway
I put practice into what it means to free the boat from bay
But I'm patronized by the laughing wasted on another
Because of what does not humour me
is anybody's guess to me
And I don't even want to walk outside
I remember the light at the end of the tunnel if
I stare into the fire
Someday in so many sayings, right around any bend
The queen of deceit has left it all to me, but man I hate
That i'm patronized by the laughing wasted on another
And of what tends to humour me aint only
empty ends to means
And I don't even want to walk outside
I remember the light at the end of the tunnel if
I stare into the fire
And I don't know if I should laugh or cry
I still remember the light at the end of the tunnel
if I stare into the fire
Patient SpiderOh patient spider, spin a web for me
What right do I have to ruin your home
What right do they have against me
Oh distant mother, what do you ask of me
When you look at me do I mirror your youth
Or do my plans corrupt your sleep
Glad now the days are getting shorter
And that she doesn't bother me no more
I spend nights awake until the sunrise
And that doesn't bother me anymore, not at all
Not at all will these days blend into one another anymore
Oh quiet moonlight, dim the streets for me
So when I walk at night no one notices
My practices of relief
Oh patient spider, we can share my windowsill
What right do I have to ruin your home
What right do I have to kill
Turn To YouFlooded out of a basement home
It's her fifteen years ago, it's me in a couple more
What it means to be true of your essence,
I guess I'll never know
Won't the birds sing the dawn in?
So I turn to you for spiritual leveling
Like an open window open to anything
It's no bullshit of a tactic
It's how long it can keep me distracted
But oh what perfect timing
I'm coming out, could you come pick me up?
If I could drive, Abby you know I would
As there's only so long you can live with
what you only know
So I turn to you for spiritual leveling
Like an open window open to anything
And it's not much, but it's something
And enough to keep me from smoking
But oh what perfect timing
Why did I turn to you for help with burning?
Dawn Soft LightTime's a tightened tourniquet for bloodless limbs
It's the aching abstinence of success
Life's a pale prejudice for workless wings
Just so happens they're your own
Sister, my camera is lying again
I never hid anything that was worth keeping in
Best friend, how are you and how long's it been?
You could have said anything, but you couldn't keep it in
I'm living with the wrongs and rights
I'm swallowing a lump of pride
Time's a tightened tourniquet for bloodless limbs
It's the aching abstinence
Sister, my camera is lying again
I never hid anything that was worth keeping in
Best friend, how are you and how long's it been?
I hate to say anything, but I cannot keep it in
I'm living with the wrongs and rights
I'm swallowing a lump of pride
My fear is a day gone by
I'm as hopeful as the dawn soft light
What Entails?What it takes to be a man among the kings
One of many simple pleasures England's offering
I wouldn't take to side inside a lonely cell again
and throw it all away, to throw it all away,
well it must mean something
Beat away the weight in mind so I can walk alright
So I can talk eye to eye alright
As a citizen I've embraced the bill of rights
As a citizen I've wakened inside
I'm taking any offers for this life
Beat away the weight in mind so I can walk alright
So I can talk eye to eye alright
Beat away the weight in mind so I can walk alright
So I can talk eye to eye alright
Our time never waits like how it used to wait
What entails?
LuckThe house tonight is sealed with ice and I can hear the rear window ache
Inside I'm warm and very much alive alike
And it's just nice to know I can write me up a place to go
Where I'm free from the pressure that binds me
Moments pass me like cars, I could care
I'm not moved, I'm sick oh yeah
The house tonight's on loan for all I like
The house that hope has built inside my child mind
I don't want to be confined in a charity of my own worth
Now i've earned more than I'll ever
Moments pass me like cars, I could care
I'm not depressed, I'm sick oh yeah
My logic is backwards, tables turn over night
Tables turn
There is a hole in my life I lost to luck
No GodsThis isn't getting anywhere
I got caught up; lost in a state of mind
Only the night could provide
Is it really worth it
Is it really that much for me to take all
The arrogance that lies deep in my gut
And it's the same song, different timing and melody
I feel burning on my tongue too fucking frequently
And it's all irrelevant and it's all about
Keeping things forward and forward and
Forward until we're bored of it
In these days we wait in turn
I've seen the way you let it burn
It takes all you can fear
And breaks if you come near
So let this be the start of something
Each to an empire we can call our own
Where no gods have known, no gods are known
Where no gods have known, no gods are known
But it's the same song, different timing and melody
I find pouring out of my mouth recently
And it's all i'd like to prevent
And it's all at the back of my head
But we say new blood pumping from
Hearts of stone, glass and coal
