True Love
02:57
|
|||
We tell ourselves stories
To keep our minds from the truth
When really all I think about is you
The one I'm in love with
Well she may never know
It's killing her softly
It's killing me slow
True love isn't true, love
Like my love is for you, love
My shadow is smitten
My hearts in the clouds
My head in my hands
As my thoughts are read aloud
We can only imagine
The passion of truth
With miles of nothing
Between me, between you
True love isn't true, love
Like my love is for you, love

Blue Dress
04:19
|

You're meant to kill a man with the savvy of a savior
Your pretty blue dress made the headlines in all the papers
And they die in your company and they die when you've left
They crawl through the hospital past the doctors new desk
And we dreamt of a full nights sleep
We were unsure that the floor was still wielded to our feet
And we dreamt, we dreamt, of a full nights sleep
You're meant to kill a man through the hands of our neighbors
Your pretty blue dress is getting tattered from the razors
As they scrape, scrape, scrape; scrape on by
I seem to have a penchant for peculiar behavior
Like a new expectant mother with a phobia of labor
But no ones scared of needles anymore or the empty corridor
And we dreamt of a full nights sleep
We were unsure that the floor was still wielded to our feet
And we dreamt, we dreamt, of a full nights sleep

Why Now
04:19
|
|||
Casting our various shadows
We planted our dreams on the moon
I'm not afraid of mistakes I have made
I'm afraid I will make them with you
Hearts weren't built to be broken
As handguns weren't built to be blamed
Creasing the paper we fold up our souls
As if they were meant to be saved
Caution was never my strong point
The breeze kept me carried away
Still it's all part of the beautiful art
Of tearing the gods from their graves
Everything comes to a stand still
In a monochromatic cascade
The crayon on the wall from the stairs up to the hall
Refuses to falter or fade
Why now
Why now
Why not
Not now

Not Enough
02:51
|
|||
It's not, It's not enough
It's not, It's not enough
It's not, It's not enough
It's not enough
I'm sorry I wasn't
Whatever you were expecting
I gave you everything
But you wanted more
And now I'm sore
I'm not, I'm not enough
I'm not, I'm not enough
I'm not, I'm not enough
I'm not enough
Remember when we were happy
We were friends once back in high school
I guess my memory's selective
But so is yours
And now I'm sure
I'll be, I'll be enough
I'll be, I'll be enough
I'll be, I'll be enough
I'll be enough
One day I'll be enough for me to love
And maybe somebody else too
I hope that you're enough for you
I really do

Abracadabra
03:35
|
|||
She was the city
Residing inside her
One million pretty songs and
One million spiders
There was a voice
Of a thousand sharp tongues
Thousands of needles stacked up
To her lungs
She pulled out the needles
Asked me to hold them
Eyes made of honey
Glittered and golden
She cut off the tongues
One at a time
To calm the voice
And quiet the mind
She kicked the spiders
Out of their homes
And now the songs are living
All alone
They fill the city
With love and then
The heart is glowing
The mind will mend
We have our choices
Not black or white
There is so much between
The dark and light
It's seen as two roads
Converge to one
That road is sinking
Then there are none
There are no roads
Someone must show them
There are no roads
Only the ocean
There are no roads
Someone must show them
There are no roads
Only the ocean
There are no roads
Someone must show them
There are no roads
Only the ocean
There are no roads
Someone must show them
There are no roads
Only the ocean

Babel
04:29
|
|||
We were living back in Eden
There was water on the rise
She was really missing Adam
I could see it in her eyes
And the floods were slowly claiming
What the fire didn't take
So we left all our belongings
To the river and the snake
And we squatted in the desert
For 40 days and 40 Nights
Our love was growing darker
We were losing all our light
As we pondered how the gods could
Have abandoned all of this
We weren't searching for redemption
We were praying to be dismissed
So we rode on out to Babel
For the Fourth of July
We were trying to mimic
The explosions in the sky
There was no use in returning
To a home no longer there
We had burnt up all our bridges
There were ashes in the air
We were young and nothing mattered
So it mattered that much more
For me to tell you that I'm sorry
When you told me that you're sore
You pointed at the powder
Spoke a language I never knew
Then you filled me up with sawdust
And packed me down with glue

Love me better
Hold me closer
Fill up the bathtub
Drop in the toaster
I wanna die
I wanna die
I wanna die
No wait, I don't wanna die
I am evil
You are an angel
Being strangled
By your halo
I tried
I tried
I tried
But I didn't try that hard
Leave me in pieces
And try to forget me
If you truly loved me
You'll surely regret me
Move on
Move on
Move on
No wait, please don't go yet
Don't go
We'll be together
Don't go
Stay here forever
Don't go
We'll be together
Don't go
Stay here forever
Don't go
