Shine

lift off
but i watch you dive back into your armor now
into the light
that can take you if you understand what it’s all about
i come down the road to your doctor’s house
and then i stay awhile
i’m gone
but you come back into your armor now
into short light
that comes alive when you are all around
i could drown on the road to your mother’s house and then she’d stay awhile
sometimes i crawl back into light
sometimes i crawl back into night
you come
take me to the dark but you can’t follow through
they gawk
take the doctor for the medicine he wanted for you
it’s hard to take izzy’s life when she’s unsure
sometimes i crawl back into light
sometimes i crawl back into night
then the stars really shine
the stars really shine
sometimes i crawl back into light
sometimes i crawl back into night
then the stars really shine
the stars really shine

The Way You Want
03:45

i’ve been woken up shaking
thinking of you jen
i wasn’t thinking like me again
i was thinking like them
in the heat
through the garden gate
i think i saw you
underneath the shapes
i’m not being lazy
i just broke my head
selling it yesterday
to a man in bed
i believe in carnation
and it keeps me fed
i take a lot to take to you
just to break my head
you know
so if you want me now
i really think you’d like me
if you want me now
i really think you’d like me
i’ve been talking to you jen
breaking both my arms
it looks just like diane
underneath the gun
i think sitting here does me good
but not the way you want
if i could be back home again
i don’t think i would
you know
if you want me now
i really think you’d like me
if you want me now
i really think you like me
i really think you
i really think you
i was thinking about you jen
but not the way you want
i take a lot to take to you
underneath the gun

strange days are coming ‘round
i risk a lot to hit the wrist again
or decline
welcome to the street
we all just came in with the heat
we bring you strange days
welcome to the meet
we buy your roses on the street
we give you strange days
so meet the girls
i’ll be
all of theirs for good
i break against the rain
because it stays the same
oh yeah
welcome to the street
we’re all just working on a string
we bring you
strange days
oh yeah
welcome to the scene
now meet my darling underneath
she gives me
strange days
alright
welcome to the street
where we’re all pretty in between
all your strange days
welcome to the scene

and bring us strange day
oh yeah
welcome to the street
now bring your burner on the beat
we got your strange days

Wish

i catch you looking down
the road is on my tongue
it taste anticlimactic
like mescaline and gum
i’d catch you if you’re shaking
i’d catch you if you drop
my imagination
turns us both to dust
if you don’t kill me
i might be here for good
so honey
leave me lonely underneath the wood
blurry education
that teaches just the same
there’s a lot at stake here
i won’t have again
if you don’t kill me
i might be here for good
so honey
leave me lonely underneath the wood
if you don’t kill me
i might be here for good
so honey
leave me lonely underneath the wood
oh yeah
if you don’t kill me

To The Dark
05:37
|

adria i come breaking back in from your shore
underneath you cut closer but illusions come forth
all the roses crash blacker than lightning stars
and the moonlight left me right beside the phone booth door
all i really wanted was light
so what now
to the dark
i’ll be seeing you
you really got a heart
adria I come broken back in to your arms
but i kept it with me holding it just too tight
all i really wanted was light
so what now
to the dark
i’ll be seeing you
i’m really going now
well good night
i’m sleeping on madison
arms beneath the clouds
all I really wanted was light
so what baby
to the dark
I’ll be seeing you
you really got a lot
well goodnight
i’ll wake up then I disappear
arms beneath the sky
yeah yeah
yeah yeah
