I will drink tea from your skull, my dear
Until your bones are as tannined as your teeth
Because I love
The taste of your dreams
my dear my dear
I will drink tea
and I will not shed a tear

I'l keep you with me
In the kitchen
In the dining room
On the little table by the couch
where the kitten pokes her whiskers in
And we'll watch television
Your empty eyes
and full cranium
 russian caravan
Oh, my love

The dregs of memory
my dear my dear
I drink you down to the bone
and I will not shed a tear

hmm hm hm
I'll always have your smile
hm hm hm
Grinning all the while, oh

I will drink tea from your skull, my dear
Until your bones are as tannined as your teeth
Because I love
The taste of your dreams
my dear my dear
I will drink tea
and I will not shed a tear

Your Skull

I was born of salt and wind
The mornings when the fog rolls in
The dance of water under star
The edge between the near and the far

And I left it all behind for my little autumn love
Yes I left the sea oh pity me I left her for my love
The leaves they make a cold cold crown
of fire upon your brow
Your cloak is red and yellow and I cannot leave you now
I'll follow you and wear your colors anywhere you roam
But when my eyes are closed I see the rolling of the foam

And if I never see her,
The place where I belong --
I will still remember,
I will still hold on

And I left it all behind for my one true autumn love
Yes I left the sea oh pity me I left her for my love
The branches make a cold cold crown
of bones upon your brow
Your cloak is brown and black and I cannot leave you now
I'll follow you and I'll wear your colors, watching them decay
But when my eyes are closed I see the wild ocean spray

I was born of salt and wind
Mornings when the fog rolls in
The dance of water under star
The edge between the near and far

And I left it all behind for my one true autumn love
Yes I left the sea oh pity me I left her for my love

And if I never see her,
The place where I belong --
I will still remember,
I will still hold on

I was born of salt and wind
Mornings when the fog rolls in
The dance of water under star
The edge between the near and far

And I left it all behind for my one true autumn love
Yes I left the sea oh pity me I left her for my love

The Sea And The Autumn

People are living
Dying and grieving
But we are not leaving
Oh oh

This is our city
And we're getting busy
Preparing for fire and snow

And I don't want to see more suffering
I dont want to see it anymore
So I will sleep one more night
And when I awake
my heart still aches

People are living 
Dying and grieving
But we are not leaving
Oh oh

This is our city
And we are still busy
Where else would we go?

Our City

Leaves etched out in ashes
Drifting gently down
The lightest touch dismantles them,
Feathers on the ground

Don't cry alone without me,
When I turn to ash
When I go to darkness
I'd hear your heartbeat last

So hold me close and grieve me
The dark eats down to bone
When I'm dust and ashes
Don't cry for me alone

The sun glows red with smoke
The air tastes thick and bitter
Grey and white the ashes fall
Hopes and grasses wither

Don't cry alone without me,
When I turn to ash
When I go to darkness
I'd hear your heartbeat last

So hold me close and grieve me
The dark eats down to bone
When I'm dust and ashes
Don't cry for me alone

Ashes

I will walk into the desert
Til I find a broken stone,
I will bear the heat of ancient days,
I will walk the lonely sands alone

Things fall apart --
As will I eventually,
They may remember my name,
But will they remember me?

I'll climb the visage of a king
Stick my boot into his eye,
As surely as the tyrants fall
Desert birds indignant cry

Things fall apart --
As will I eventually,
They may remember my name,
But will they remember me?

Into The Desert

Look at you, old man
You were a loyal friend
You bowed your head like a knight to the king
And he never said a word to you

But you rose to the occasion
Wore your heart out on your sleeve
Were you born too soon or born too late?
Watched a silent princess conquer fate
Because you were a loyal friend
To the end

They left you on the docks
Hale and hearty with no one waiting at home
I hope you find a prince fit for a
Fit for a loyal friend

Look at you, old man
You were a loyal friend
You bowed your head like a knight to the king
And he never said a word to you

Loyal Friend

I make chillwave electronic music and write songs about monsters
