Hearts Have Eyes 05:08
lyrics
buy track
are you what spills the banks of my most childlike dreams what is spoken of in fairy tales on tv screens or are you simply just what I would want you to be the product of a lonely mind latching itself to everything it sees I don't want to be so easy to please I don't want to give in so casually

A Different Smell 02:52
lyrics
buy track
I moved into my new house just started to unpack when I heard a strangers voice past tenants filled the cracks in the walls and there's indentions in the sheets where his body used to sleep his smell on the bed where he used to rest his head i hope he leaves but in his limp embrace you'll find some misguided peace of mind as I taste rain drops from your skin and you are pulling me into a place that shouldn't exist that wraps around your thoughts and twists your arm as its pulling you down into a place that shouldn't exist because nothing good will come of this just keep laughing

The Tallest Tree 04:59
lyrics

I'll stare as your eyes wash your face of the last five years that brought you to this place out in the woods under the tallest tree your toes brushing the fallen leaves their colors melting to the ground your pounding heart the only sound I'll hear out here now you know dear how hard it is giving up starting over now your head hangs heavy and watches your feet as they step you away from where you thought you'd like to be five years ago the sun melts your head in its rays taking you back to those wonderful golden old days when you were young in such a pleasant way he'd mold your future like its clay then coddle you beneath his wing a perfect past the only thing I'll fear out here

Where Wings Meet 05:40
lyrics
buy track
sweet and soothing soft and cooling falling from the angels proving I could never hear your voice in such a fragile way sour seeding hard and bleeding lifting as the flames are heating I could never bring myself to think I had a say savory sifting wet and dripping drooling from the mountains gripping every single word that I could spit within a day bitter biting tall and frightening growing in the nightless lightning you could never bring yourself to ever make him pay and we will come together where your wings meet and cave in on themselves between blankets and sheets how those seconds would stain in the back of my memory my words in your mouth and the strings rubbing ebony melting the rings that would fall from your fingers while bed choirs call with their sirin-like singers we'd laugh at the prospect tear up at the truth burning autographs into each others skin you will keep me standing by as your life it goes awry stupid boy just compromise she will keep you at her side do you remember people places hiding in the cobwebbed cases and everyone would think we're numb except for me and you but now we're picking at our flowers meeting in the after hours looking at our life as though it were just born a new we will find we are not able to attach a fitting label onto all these moments when we're tangled up in eachother

A Glass Future 07:53
lyrics
buy track
your dreams paint pictures of the future that cover up the past but you're always so damn restless knowing the futures made of glass you see right through to feelings of what once were all you knew now shattered on the floor closing the door just something you can't do and so you run away from what you say was only a mistake you know you've made a thousand times before you lost the war but I'm the one who paid I will become something else when it's done I will regret everything once I'm gone You're a slave to your temptations you're far to weak to have to wait You're pulling levers spinning dials hoping luck will change your fate You just try to keep your head on strait hope for better days with showerings of children and wealth let your conscience in and you're bound to sin just to prove that you can't trust yourself I'm trying to sleep can't we shut up roll down our sleeves stop acting tough I'm trying to rest can't you shut up my mind is full I've had enough I know the futures made of glass I see right through to feelings of what once was all I knew now shattered on the floor closing the door just something I can't do and so I run away from what I say was only a mistake I know I've made a thousand times before I lost the war and now it's time to pay now it's time to pay

The Next Year 03:12
lyrics
buy track
I'll close my eyes and feel your fevered breath on my ear gentle and honest you whisper words I would love to hear but this is only a dream and in that dream I'll plow my callous fingers through your hair and you will stare into the holes within my eyes and how you will pull out phantom words that only you can hear fishing my heart and mind but landing only lies but this is only in a dream because now all our love is in the arms of some wingless miracle buried in earth within the cold and naked night still pieces parade in the peripherals of my mind blinding my judgement with their slowly fading light I'll close my eyes and feel your fevered breath on my ear gentle and honest you whisper words I would love to hear but this is only in a dream it is only in my sleep when you close your eyes and come to me
