War Paint 03:58
I’m sorry if you’re tired of listening to epitaphs But you’re the one who wanted to see all my old photographs But I don’t think that this angel has to be wearing black when she could be folding herself into the hibiscus But I think it’s too mysterious to act like it’s so serious and I have to be wary when you act so seriously And I think it’s think it's too mysterious to act like it's so serious and if love is love then what is this? Well I’d really love to know And I’d love to know what is and I’d love to know what aint and I love the way that your warpaint looks like light refracting off of crystals and onto your face So I’ll kiss you know only because its raining and only because you’ve been complaining about how you feel alone and only because you promised me you take me home so won’t you take me home

Family Dog 03:37
Light the incense dark spirits be gone cruisin' up alongside the dawn coming back to ya like the family dog I’m coming to ya like the family dog Waiting here so faithfully glory glory shine on me burn me in your effigy burning in your effigy reachin’ out shaking paws just reachin’ out, shakin' paws Sometimes I feel like the family dog takes a lot of leavin’ till you’re feeling found rode into the sunset, but the sun went down sink my teeth into your graduation gown sink my teeth right down to the bone placing a wreath singing your name in rounds sinkin' my teeth Sometimes I feel Like the family dog

Survive This 04:23
I have no right here No reason to be here they see right through me I know they do “They’ve always hated you They have a reason to They’ve always wanted to end you” Could you survive this brief walk through a garden? Easily dismissed some spirits aren’t human This spirit’s foreign Probably from another star Your bodies worn Out by everything you are you are your fears you are your fears Could you survive this brief walk through a garden? Easily dismissed some spirits aren’t human

A hard wind blows imposing me so slavishly to my knees but still I know I’m hiding blood with blood like any other foolish man would be Heavenly woman Expire like a sucker punch to my soul what will I do the day you die? How will I afford the courage to buy a cup of coffee alone? Is this mans wife up in heaven keeping his seat warm like the coffee in his hand, hope was such a comfort have you seen my lover? Will I ever find her?

Camera Eye 05:28
Camera Eye It’s getting darker than I would like it to be But I’m welcome at any fire All this intuition has been wasted on me I reach for the brick instead of the key The worlds always turnin’ and turnin’ and turnin away bet on the horse with the best name and every heavy stone seems like an anchor until you drop it but theres still room in my pocket Does it look like I’m dancing when I stand on this earthquake You got your tongue out your eyes closed you’re waitin' for the snowflake Some things I just can’t recognize I’m stepping out of focus of your camera eyes Turning into light returning into light

Unhand the Shield surrender the Body now defy the ordeal euthanize the hell hounds the ancient ceremony fades into the background vacate the herd muzzle the fantasy discard what you’ve heard don’t believe what you see if we get the heeby jeebies we just won’t say a word Mrs. More sacred than the moon is the fallen kings of show biz on a back wall So sleep dear your mothers always been here and she will always be here It’s just science But when I put too much syrup on my pancakes Oh you know its never a mistake… ever
7.
Apart of Me 04:25
I’m so glad I’ve got something in these sockets that turns the light into you I’m mending all of the holes in my pockets to fill them with flowers for you and even though every single part of me has changed the part the holds you remains and it’s a part of me I need I’m dreading the day when you and I will be friends how could I set myself up for something that will destroy me in the end and even though even single part of me will change that part that holds shall remain and it’s a part of me I need

Colours Run 05:18
I’ve been breathin’ such strange weather Storms a comin' man what ever Feel so tired of the cold high rise loomin' Losing track of what I should be doing Used to live where the river came to die Now where I live the river flows right by Theres been good, yeah, theres been bad Used to be kinda bright but now I’m fading fast Colours run Easy come, easy go I’m still in the throes and thats fine by me its a place I know I’ll always be Know I should quit calling it a half empty glass fast forward clouds keep on rippin' past but I am the cruel brother to my soul how come all of a sudden I’m all young and hopeful and all the artists want something that speaks you’re just the devils paintbrush stroking your own cheek and colours run Easy come, easy go I’m still in the throes and that’s fine by me its a place I know I’ll always be dripping down slow a crooked infiniti all blurred into one colours run

Taking Space 04:16
December hit hard like a strong psilocybin But I returned to the house of gnar with a smile and a kiss and I told you I’ve grown dangerous so please just let me be but you exposed my inner self in it’s niavity So I sacrificed the virgin to norse gods and the moon and those these seeds of love were planted they were never meant to bloom so keep on taking space my dear and the ever waxing gibbous ascends up through the years the golden stars adorn the rouging sky bright and clear but I am tens of thousands of miles away from here yet you keep holding on my… so I sat lying in my silence as you confide your love and though its cast in iron my hearts a velvet glove so keep on taking space my dear. But if were a man oh if I were a man Oh if I were man if I weren’t beige and bland and if I weren’t a rabid dog decaying in the sand and if you weren’t some wild creature from a far away land would you still cradle my body in the love lines in your hands and if I were a man and sometimes I think I am and if weren’t just muttering bullshit that no one understands and if every single thing that I’ve ever said to you weren’t a disgrace would you keep your taken space my dear?

The Killer 06:09
Ten thousand dollars Ten tons for the killer of the missing one thats someones daughter another precious baby girl in this world something's not aligned with me as she slips into another dimension a kid in Bench Elementary is waiting for the clock on the back wall in school detention No child of mine will praise guilt and shame and die on the vine all around the sun let go just let the kids have their fun its gonna rain eventually might as well lean into the pain and set yourself free cause I aint afraid of no crow Just cause its something that you heard that don’t make it something that you know Don’t want no fucked up no fucked up demons in my chakras All lost will turn up this bodies revolution jives with yogananda Breathe the Hara real slow and deep Marriage is a voice obscured less and less and less and though I love you valley Oh death, oh death I have breathed my I have breathed my every breath
