Take Warning 05:23
paused at falling skies your eyes clutching mine wait for it to die we couldn't take so we gave our lives taste your shaking skin keep it silent moments after I sink in i'll bring you back again because there's all my life in you
2.
Brainwave 04:20
I had a brainwave caught it at daybreak had a melodic ache used and let it get away and now those simple words are twisting with the curves of my own memory short term and stuck in repeat I had a brainwave it made the front page thought it would not escape but then I lost the shape and now those perfect tones that shook beneath my bones have left my muscles cold and all my actions dull I had a brainwave this time it wouldn't break I put it in a cage sitting for days and days and when I found the chart it was familiar art something I had already seen unlocked and set it free and now it's on a runaway keep mixing message tapes in the cortex it's all the same I wasn't ready to lose the name
3.
Radio You 02:38
I wasn't allowed to pick up the phone I couldn't yell that loud loud enough to reach your home so sometime i'd like to radio you the wire in the clouds is a caught and tangled tune can you hear the static sound you are making in your room? sometimes it's gonna be different than before
4.
made another mystery out of your history sold it by the morning nighttime I was fire roaring laying in the waste I could barely taste everything you serve caught in the conservation for the war I tried to ignore a patron for the war I tried to ignore but there was something in your eyes that I could never afford hope it stops raining forty nights waiting help you stay under help me go thunder in the january middle i'll be ready in the popularity of the air that breathes in you like a little choke breathes in you like a little choke all I can give to you is an anecdote and i'm just pacing, pacing for you now and i'm just pacing, pacing for you 'til you come around, beat it down, but you're dead, and now I surrender now. oh, I surrender now.
5.
show me ways to find the space I wasn't there to make me or you haunt my mind with turpentine until I wind up lost inside the room and there was just a figure I found between the walls telling me to keep the key but leave behind the door call to arms the nitrogen bombs they'll clear up the mess, evaporate the surface start again what has been the end, the machine won't rest until it is the best and you were just a figure, figure, figure, figure, figure oh my lord, if I believe in symmetry, i'll believe in anything everything of ours is coming can't imagine where it'll be when it's gone I hope that when I die I make the national news
6.
Hallway 04:07
I was basking in the hallway air couldn't help but stare at the pictures memory you couldn't help but breathe scents of her cotton sleeves in the summer or in november fuck this party I wanna be outside I want out of this tie and into the water they are laughing about another horrible day working from nine to way past their dinner and now i'm on my way working through crowd so fazed biting on my tongue just to break off the taste and now i'm on my way mixing with the curious faced open up a bottle to savor each other's flavor and now I'm on my way back home but it doesn't matter anyway, no you started a family tree I wasn't supposed to see I wasn't allowed to read but baby that's not for me
7.
Elephant 03:37
it's another night you're under your own breath nothing's alright everything is upset so you turn to your mirror in the label, peel it off you really screwed yourself you really screwed this out you hold your elephant the way you hold your head caught lost in a liplock with your favorite dead soldier you know, the one you bought for excuses grown older you take a second to explain it and you lose your mind you take an hour, try to calm down, and you fall behind you say it's them, not me, you're pretty, and you don't get high that's why you're always on the ground about to dive you hold your elephant the way you hold your head first fifty years grey, then the last ten red still crossing the river
8.
Bushes 03:35
she's staring at me through my screen the way she'd stare at me through the window in my dreams thirteen years ago both memories wear black and white and moonbeams oh I know it's another taste of the sentimental that I want to last forever she spreads her eyes on slow sprays dust on her clothes, attaches to my nose taking me back home where I lost my sense of which way was lonely oh I know it's another scent of the elemental that I don't want to shake away from my bones they keep me warm, keep the accidental feelings I don't know if I want to show
9.
caught you before the sunlight left the moor on the road, lit up like gold known faces falling old you stood up hand on hood asking if it's ever good I made my promise clear there is love in all this fear and only in the books that fear is real hold your head in the blue of your bed i'll send it all away and warm you into grey know only in the books that fear is real only troubled looks can make you feel that something's gonna happen to your heart smile 'til your worries break apart caught you alone reading about rome but you didn't shed a tear you forgot the fear
10.
Short Horror 05:26
settle for the money on my little wake I was restless in the horror of the lake settle for the contest oh my I was weak made a couple kind children and opened them to speak and you were not a member of that little piece of clay that I made on that day settle for the memory oh my lord I would take through the restless part of anything you're the restless part of anything it's an uncomedic sadness oh my head's feeling the wall you can haunt me with your gratitude but I can't take the fall and on my way I wasn't walking farther at all I would walk alone so come back and settle me down yet it was tough to be you
