BREATHING (AWAY)
03:04
|
|||
|
I was floating away to the moon
You were making your way too soon
Took my breath and spun it
Away (Away Away)
Standing in the vestibule on 5th Avenue
You were never quite there when you said you would be
I was waiting all damn day to hear you complain
You couldn’t even replace my photograph of when I flew to outerspace
I’m Away (Away Away)
-------
You told me no, you couldn’t go
When I was leaving
You couldn’t say, you wouldn’t play
I knew you were breathing
I knew you were breathing
I knew you were breathing

SEE THE STARS

There’s a heat in the architecture, stuff it out from messy spots
Punch it off in tiny pictures, couldn’t make it too, too hot
Push the touch you can’t ignore, skip the dance, you count to four
You wanna take a hard, give me room to see the stars
Try to see the smoke through the symptoms,
foggy up the ice through the other side
Wouldn’t drive into the open, shut your ears and try to hide, hide, hide
Finally, it’s cold to me
You wanna be that hot commodity
Give me room to see the stars

THE WAY OUT
04:24

I know you better than I know the solar systems
Covered in plutonium I can’t remember
The way out, the way out
Well I saw you sink into the dirt (oh boy)
Well I knew it didn’t really hurt (oh joy)
Come inside you couldn’t find the way out there (oh no)
Well it seems you didn’t try you didn’t care (oh oh)
You were staring at me through the iron glass
It was too important I forgot to ask
When you’re coming home, I’ll make sure to erase
All the things that made you want to face
The way out, the way out

SITTING ON YOUR SILVER
04:20
|
|||
|
It’s unreasonable
You make my knees buckle under the weight of your appetite
Sittin on your silver, let it go your filter pop, and you don’t see me anymore
Everything you took with my hands
You were grabbing at it tryna make it your dance
You were coming over crying that you’re so strong
Well no one’s listening, cause baby we’re all dead and gone
Stop. Wait. Take a breath.
You don’t even know how you fell into this mess
Well I don’t give a fuck
You fell into this land without a reason or a plan and now you’re
Sittin on your silver, pretty boy you make a mean man
Take off your mask, now I see your face
You were whiter underneath than all your bedsheets
Let it hang low down like the strange fruit I can’t taste
If we catch you than we caught you try and get out of this fast heat

WAVES BREAK
04:52
|
|||
|
When you told me I could walk on ice
No one told me you could do that twice
There’s a cemetery on that silver speedway
There’s a voicemail calling, it’s your overdue pay
You were reading Sartre, finding print
In the hallowed hallways, taste like mint
There’s a picture of you on the concrete
So you thought you found it, don’t you remember the heat
When you (oo-oo) fall in love with me
Don’t you (oo-oo) make it more than I can take
Cause I (oo-oo) don’t ever want to be
Swimming out into the ocean when the waves break
Don’t you make any assumptions about me
There was thunder, sunny day, you were holding
So you threw the ice away, I was folding
There were rougher merry-go-rounds in the frozen sections
You were looking through the light bulbs to the rigged elections

STAYS WITH YOU
03:33
|

|
When you were younger you told me
When you were older that you’d be
You knew it over and over
You knew you’re over, it’s over
But it stays with you
And it stays with you
Dun dun dun Dun dun dun Dun dun dun
Little boy, you just scream out your name
Little boy, you know it’s always the same
They can’t see you, they can’t hear you
Singing from the pavement jazz muffled with your blood
NO HATE NO FEAR IMMIGRANTS ARE WELCOME HERE
STAND UP FIGHT BACK

SOCK DRAWER
04:51
|
|||
|
Funny how it’s over now and you don’t even notice
You told me look the other way, so I would just ignore this
Well if you can exaggerate, well baby take your time and wait
But don’t you leave your socks in my drawer
You were sittin on the top shelf, they were sittin on the side
You gave me that one, cold look baby, well I couldn’t let it slide
It wasn’t always rooted, no it wasn’t always far
But don’t you leave your socks in my drawer
Take away the good ones, you’re left with all the holes
You can’t predict the weather, whether it was being told to you
By all the breezes blowing, by the clouds and all the stars
But don’t you leave your socks in my drawers
Make me, waste me, don’t you return,
Take me, taste me if you wanna learn
All about how you took the knots and untied
Well it’s all a mystery to me, cause you’re diggin at my pride
