I guess my brick wall is more peaceful than yours
The meaning of what you feel
A small stream of water, a small stream of blood and money
A small stream of water, a small stream of blood and money
And me, shamelessly stealing those words
Oooooh I want it, all of it oh
Oooooh I want it, all of it oh
Oooooh even when there’s nothing left
Oooooh
The wind outside is opening doors
Letting in the air as cold complaint
We watch the death and the dryness of the last flame
We watch the death and the dryness of the last flame
Slow death can be more quiet, just a little more
Oooooh I want it, all of it oh
Oooooh I want it, all of it oh
Oooooh even when there’s nothing left
Oooooh

Skyline
03:58
|

I’ve been looking down
I kinda miss the skyline
My town’s biggest flaw
Is its symmetry
I’m starting to like it here
Starting to like it here
Or maybe I just got used to
Infinite white noise
Tell me I don’t cook
Tell me I don’t wait
The silence fades in
My car breaks down
I’ll go and spread my legs in subway trains
And speak in my low voice
I’ll tell everyone I know everything
And I will never die
I will never die
I will never die
I will never die
I will never die
I will…
I will never die
I will never die
I will never die
I will never die
I will never die
I will never die
I will never die
I will never die
I will never die
I will never die
I will never die
I will never die

Lighter Breath

Butterfly dog in a loud house
Hear me sing
Too loud again
I never understand
Butterfly dog in peaceful air
Feel the wind
That raised me here
That heard me here
Lighter breath
You look in
And your eyes when you cry
And your eyes when you cry
And your eyes when you cry
And your eyes when you cry
The clouds dispersed today
A little more light
In our fire-lit cage
Lighter breath
We’ll try and find something else
Than what we dream
The ghosts in my parent’s bedroom
What I dream
Lighter breath
You look in
And your eyes when you cry
And your eyes when you cry
And your eyes when you cry
And your eyes when you cry

Refuge
02:47
|

The roof is melting
On ice-covered snow
The dog is barking
At invisible ghosts
I watch you close
I watch you far
You come and go
In my bright red car
Show me around
Tell me stories
Where werewolves were loud
Back in the thirties
The town wants your place
For parking and noise
For fun and games
For louder voices
I watch you close
I watch you far
You come and go
In my bright red car
Show me around
Tell me stories
Where werewolves were loud
Back in the thirties

Tedium
03:59
|
|||
See me looking around
Deep in the heart of a cold town
Glass-filtered eyes
Tedium
Tedium
And I find any I’ll look away
Is it a bad sign when I’m not sure if I’ll be anything more than what I am now?
That’s why I broke down last night
That’s why I broke down in my brother’s arms
Baby I am a man
I’ve got hair all over my chest
I should know what to say
For tedium
For tedium
That’s what my sources claim but I’ll look away
Is it a bad sign when I’m not sure if I’ll be anything more than what I am now?
That’s why I broke down last night
That’s why I broke down in my brother’s arms
I want you to be ok
I want you to be fine
You better believe me when I say I won’t look away
You better believe me when I say I won’t look away

Moth
04:24
|
|||
I’m cold and awake and I don’t mind
I was dreaming of bad things again
As I turn around to get closer
Your elbow pushes me away
The rain flooded our surroundings
But we’re breathing in a floating house
We’re ok and we’ll stay like that
We’re ok and we’ll keep it that way
And I can’t find the words to say what I want
These days it’s fine to have nothing else to say
I’m not like the moth in your arms
It always needs the last word
I’m not like the moth in your arms
It always needs the last word
I’m singing too loud again
As I’ve been doing for years now
The only difference nowadays
Is the color of the car I’m driving
As we’re watching tv shows all night
With too much sex and countless turnarounds
We’ll fall asleep tomorrow
And I’ll still have nothing more to say
And I can’t find the words to say what I want
These days it’s fine to have nothing else to say
I’m not like the moth in your arms
It always needs the last word
I’m not like the moth in your arms
It always needs the last word

Childhood Guitar
06:50
|
|||
All I want is a peaceful death
Simple and easy
I watch the city
With its grey grey lights
I’ll find the way out
Define me by the way I drive out of here
For now all I can do
Is see all the broken strings on my father’s childhood guitar
I want to last longer than this
I mean I want to mean something to someone
What I want is somewhere else
What I want is somewhere else
What I want is somewhere else
What I want is somewhere else
What I want is somewhere else
What I want is somewhere else
What I want is somewhere else
What I want is somewhere else
What I want is somewhere else
What I want is somewhere else
What I want is somewhere else
What I want is somewhere else
