Climbing a tower with a stolen, golden knife Say what you want, but they won't But they won't, will they, son of mine? Heart-shaped glassware to a mirror shine. So you miss it, missing on the tracks Living off the grid, but you're feeling like you want to call in And you're one of a number That's all you learned of it. Send one along and let them all stay on the line Say what they won't, what they won't But you won't, will you, son of mine? Salem, honto, one-way on the tide. The old ways are the best.

Vault 02:34
Holly, oh. I felt a touch like yours. Freeze and flow. What do you see abroad?

Nothing between us Nothing to guess Who would be left if We were anything less? Making the weight lift Off of my chest Relieving the pressure Relieving the stress. High as I want to go. Gravity's a weakened force It's changing into other forms Giving berth to boats and storms Diving in to be reborn. Running away from each other Running away from ourselves Falling into each other Falling into a well Nothing is lost and Nothing is gained Nothing is changing Everything's changed. Gravity's a weakened force It's changing into other forms Giving berth to boats and storms Building homes on distant shores.

Car Wash 03:17
Dragging bones against all bones All that's left to say The binary's corrupt But it's better in the air We'll have to say goodbye to everyone we know And everything we have. Satellites begin colliding They've begun colliding If you're a version of yourself You owe your life to Pharaoh You are nothing without everything before. True hollow love Winding highly always young Feed on the road when I Feed on your old ways We only want to find a stone And roll and roll and roll And roll away And stay wide awake.

Indianapolis is lost The city disappeared into the mist Annihilation all but complete With a house set apart At the end of the street. Outside the city walls are empty malls Driving schools, packing halls Morning calls and waterfalls. In a bid to tie the sea to a stone You're breaking ships with broken headphones A river running under your home Raw data's flooding into the dome Decayed orbits over housing zones Sending information into the Oort Cloud As a bee's falling down my throat. An Amerindic funeral Motion turning physical A courtroom, a jury, a three-drug cocktail dress Oh lord, my lord. The lake is deep and it's been covered in ice this year. From the bed see the souls of their feet.

Dying Lover 04:30
We tried to light it up and just let it go Doors close on their own The happiest place that we've ever known. Suits stand in the spiritual zone Lord help me, help me Lord, oh God I love you so. Bread and sweetened wine Sweet red wine. Up on the treeline There's a light Through the deathly night Fire, firelight Pour me sweet red wine Blinding fight Climbing out of sight Fire, firelight. Better pack it up before we get home Heavy with rain The runway is clear but best go 'round again. Cigarette smoke on your clothes Your dying lover is leaving and asking to hold you close. Leave this room tonight Tonight we say goodbye.
7.
Naked Art 01:53
From the well of the system To the centre of the sun Broken glass Broken surface You can see for miles, but for what's in your mind. Lone, shy alone, die alone Don't be afraid of the surf Oh alone, shy alone The centre a diamond ten times larger than the earth Heart on hide.
8.
The miner on the coast The falling water fills the forest floor Head under in a boiling world The only one who calls is the ghost on the beach. Freezing, falling water. The volcano's silent slope The shaking ground beneath the angry clouds The spiders in your mouth Are spinning webs, desperate to get out.
9.
Find yourself In the middle of the road No lives left. Your courage gone All your strength's on holding on That loving feeling Now it's gone Will be what I won for you. I don't want any other. On my shelf Name on the top Darkness falls. Your courage gone All your strength's on holding on When you're sleeping All of this Will be what I won for you.

Suffocate 04:14
Are we done Or are we only halfway through the year? Making moves on your surprising mind So are we done? Hey, you suffocate You are, you're untoward towards us My only one Tech ammonate It's on, it is on all of us now My only one Bound up down a cave, no lighting anywhere, around your head is shining like a sign that's saying: 'fool, you're such a fool for trying' Oh, you broke the moon Now the atmosphere is soured And the sky is falling down You don't know what you want So loan, solo, so low Until we've sprung the wood anew Moving into a new Place where we can breathe again Only cowards here You are only one Face your fear with fear For once we're only young. We must be done We must be more than halfway through the year Hey, you suffocate You're untoward towards us My only one. So loan, solo, so low Until we've sprung the wood anew Only cowards here You are only one.

Thursday, we were crossing borders Running headlong, fuelling theories Friday, we had full deck, full force On top of it always, always ahead. Yesterday they met in the sun where the city meets the sea And they know where to go if they decide to come for me. Body double, faulty nervous system slowing down to a crawl Ceiling height Extra credit, next level, missing weapon No way through Oh, you Pollyanna, tail feather Why so caught up in fighting talk? Do it, neck connections, destroy each other The sun's rising on the fourth island And today they'll meet, up to their knees, where the sea meets the city And they'll know where to look, where to go when they decide to come for me. Oh, simple sense, your own guide On your own, you're the pride of London.

On Longmead Sold or unsold I thought we were over all this. Untie me King for a day For the weekend only, sharing spaces. Feel it, don't wait for it Truth only shows when it goes When it's over. On Longmead.
