Wild Fire
04:29

the smell of blood
and dust on the road
as i follow my footprints all the way home
but i cannot remember
how to receive from sender
mapless and stranded
on an empty planet
tied up in your bed
are you just a friend
tied up in your bed
from head to limb
lets run lets run
into the night
until the sun drags us down
have fun and lose some
control of your mind
just killing some time
but you can burn out
and burn up alive
my friend the fire is wild
well howve ya been?
hell where to begin?
all the endless yearning at
midnight burning out
late on the town
wrapped up in a crowd
embarrassed and proud
with the sage and the clown
holding council beneath
the moons lunacy
a place i never show her
though id love to know her
lets run lets run
into the night
until the sun drags us down
have fun and lose some
control of your mind
just killing some time
but you can burn out
and burn up alive
my friend the fire is wild

Past Lives
04:34

wave goodbye in a dream and
wake on the other side
the truth aint what it seems when
you got something to hide
yeah you got something to hide
in our past lives
i may have known you
in our past lives
i may have shown you
decomposed
hollow bones
time passes by like
trains on the highway side
miles, minutes, hours
by seconds divide
by seconds divide
in our past lives
i may have known you
in our past lives
i may have shown you
decomposed
hollow bones
wave goodbye in a dream and
wake on the other side
the truth aint what it seems when
you got something to hide
yeah you got something to hide

Splint
04:12
|

mortality
in memory
ghosts dont decompose
in the evening
redness of the west
lost the will to speak
dont know what it means
the world breaks my heart
please put me in a splint

even the sun
has its time
to rise and shine
to live and die
and so our flesh
shall bear the scars
of insects crawling
through our veins
might never see
whats killing me
remember how
we used to sway
in the lazy summer breeze
before the needles
in our arms
fell away
beneath the lunar gaze
might never see
whats killing me
pulled inside out
over and over again
please have mercy on our souls
and the disease in our hearts
for the end is nigh

Gray
02:58
|
|||
theres an open door
to an empty room
behind your eyes
please come home soon
reawake into the gray
dont you want a sunny day
come on down
gather around
lets see whats used
in the lost and found
chase a feeling like no other
try to hold the smoke that smothers
reawake into the gray
dont you want a sunny day
in spring a poison fever
thawed the bones of winter
returned to rust by autumn
the golden youth off summer
and im unsure
if im still here

Cross Roads

i dont want to
though i have to
kill to survive
costs a dollar
takes a life
well step right up
and try to win the fight
tonight
right on
sounds good
i guess
but i dont want to
though i have to
be leaving soon
for some other place
a bit more unknown
take up vacant space
alright
you alright?
hanging around
at the crossroads of town
i dont have to
but id like to
shatter glass and
cry and laugh about it
shake this cast off
and try not to crash without it
crash without it
hanging around
at the crossroads of town
right on
sounds good
i guess
