Lyrics:

[Intro]
Oh, to not need words
Oh, to not need ...

[Verse 1]
Oh, two years I’ve waited for these words
To un-twist, un-bundle like your tight fists

[Pre-Chorus]
What if I can’t talk
What if I can’t move, would you please
Be Kind To My Boy
And let his beauty be reframed and not destroyed
By these unforgiving forces

[Chorus]
So cool me down
Blow me out
Hold me up
And I’ll come ‘round
Hold me down
Blow it up
Please just don’t
Shut me out
(No, don’t shut me out)

[Verse 2]
Too proud to ask for my arms back from my brain
From my brain

[Pre-Chorus]
What if I can’t speak
What if I can’t breathe, would you please
Be Kind To My Boy
And let his beauty be reframed and not destroyed
By these unforgiving forces

[Chorus]
So cool me down
Blow me out
Well, you can blow me out
And shut me up
And fool around
Please just don’t
Shut me out
(No, don’t shut me out)

[Outro]
Oh, to not need words
Oh, to not need, to not need words

Be Kind To My Boy

Lyrics:
I lost my peace
When I lost you
I lost my history 
I lost my memory
I lost myself
When I lost you 
You're not just a piece of me 
I went looking, out at sea
I went thrashing, under waves
The under-sides of waves 
The under-sides of my memory
The under-sides of my weak arms 
When I was under you 
When you were over me 
When we were in-between each other
I found my peace in you 
You found your peace with me 
A peace that we can always keep open 
A peace that is our room, by the sea 
A house where we can hang our memories to fly free 
A home made out of whatever we might find
I want to come flying back to you
I want to heal just for you 
I want to fix my wings for you 
I want to give my body to you 
I want you to lay me down into the wild water, into the wild water
So that we can be okay 
So that they may cool under my hot and shaking body
So that all coincidences become clear, sewn as lines into our tapestry, and by our bedside 
Will sit all mistaken sentences 
Which we'll pile up and turn into our own loving art 
So that we can remember the space and potential within void, the reason we always love each other . 
I do it for you alone
I do it alone 
I do it for you alone
I do it alone
I do it for my family, too
And I do it for you
I do it for my family 
And all the ones we love 
And all the ones we love
And all the ones we love 
I want to live
I want to live right next to you

I Want To Live / Peace

Lyrics:
Dead Sun
Come down 
You know what it means
See me lying here tonight
Lost dreams, lost dreams
Endless sun is shining, and it is shining
Old hopes, singing through the night
Take it on

When She Passes The Hills Will Bow Their Heads
