Track Name: She La
flower in bloom
ripped to shreds, you coalesce
about the interlude
learn to live and be a ghost
oscillate and peak
sing about the imprint of a face
safe atop the hills
roll about and swim infinitely
alone I will be
spitting jokes along the interstate
broken lives set free
ripped to shreds, you coalesce
i am man, i am strong
sequenced lies flow through my arteries
i am carbon, i am wrong
let me find my origin
my contents spill about the sunlight on my frame
i become naked (oh wow).
Track Name: You Told Me You Could Swim Through the Waves
running free the people
aboard our hilltop recess
the drumming rhythmic beating
their idle bottles glistening
narrowly feet gathering
a ship to my devising
she stood above me careless
the wind the goddess moonlight
she shrieks a borrowed sorrow
the sun reclaims the valley
in printemporary song
the birds above the arches
glass of a moody war waltz
five fingers left to tell you
green talk and tickle my back
aboard our hilltop recess
the goddess moonlight leading
the drumming rhythmic beating
the glass of war waltz speaking
a ship of my devising
the nerves of my shy leftside
dull and powerlessly
shake off this slow regression
under her feet below me
and tumble through profession
of all the things inside me
could open up the green path
if power rained at our feet
the shadow of my family
cracked lens I learned as living
she stood above me naked
the goddess moonlight glistening
the ship to love about me
traveling through the chimney
and here we gathered once more
to call the horns and woodwinds
to strength we haven't lost yet
the pike division gymnast
reaching final paradox
now brand us to the program
vice of their brave adulthood
honor besets the pleasure
of living one last moment
free of the guilty stenches
she tries to break the picture
restore the peace before her
running free the people
aboard our hilltop recess
existing in convergence
and on a dream-built planar
the pieces shard and whistle
blank speech and crooked eyelids
the shades fill out the silence
the static of existing
running free the people
aboard our hilltop recess
the drumming rhythmic beating
tramples the unsucceeding
she stands above me breathing
Track Name: Sizzly
Glued our eyes to the pavement
Fair play as the sun strokes kiss our heads
Soon we'll be older
Nobody's gonna tell us when
The rumbling in the basement
The stampede of drunken lull faces
Move a little closer
Shaking hands, shaking everywhere
But soon we'll be older
And nobody will tell us when
Track Name: New What
nobody tells us when
Track Name: Ourselves Behind Ourselves
Lost notions of little
Thoughts tumble into words
My head a swath of seaweed
Washed upon the shore

Remembering the time we kissed so hard our mouths bled
Remembering the time we kissed so hard our mouths bled

Let me go let me go let me go
Into the water I float I float
Away away into the depths
I sink, I’m sinking, I sink,
I’m asking for you
I’m sinking for you

I fell onto the shore
Your heart in my hands
Your hands in my head
I fell onto the shore
I fell onto the shore
Leaving imprints, imprints, imprints
Lost notions of little
Of little
The time we kissed so hard (x4)
I fell onto the shore
I’m sinking
I feel onto the shore
I’m sinking
I’m sinking
Washed upon the shore
Let me go let me go
Im sinking
I fell onto the shore
Leaving imprints (x3)

I sink
I’m sinking I sink for you
Leaving imprints
I fell onto the shore leaving imprints
Know not the lost notions of little
thoughts
Track Name: Assassins Hid in Our Loops
If I'd been a bird
I'd sing 'til you came
If I'd been a cat
I would claw 'til you played with me
Let myself be matter
Let myself not matter
If I'd been a bird
I'd sing 'til you came
If I'd been a cat
I would claw 'til you played with me
If I'd been a box
I'd seal myself shut
There'd be no escaping
No reason to run
