I just want your attention
I just want you to listen
I don't want the solution

You can come to me with honesty
You can come to me with tenderness
Yeah
Yeah I want your arms
Your kisses, your devotion
Yeah I want your arms
Your kisses, your devotion
Yeah
I want candlelight and romantic notion
Yeah
I want your hands around me and understanding
Yeah, yeah
So listen to me
So listen to me
You can come to me with all your charms
You can come to me with those eyes
Yeah I'll come to you with all my heart
I won't make it hard for you to see
I just want you to be true to me
I need all your attention
Sometimes I think that's all I need
But most of all I want your comfort for me
But most of all I want your comfort for me
Yeah I want your arms
Your kisses, your devotion
Yeah I want your arms
Your kisses, your devotion
Yeah, yeah
So listen to me
So listen to me
So listen to me

Devotion - Tirzha (Cover)

The Mome Raths Outgrabe

I, I, I, will let you down
Everything comes so fast around this pole
I will let you down
That tear tracks run down your face again
I wouldn’t let it in 
Touch the ground
I would let it touch the ground
Hopelessly done
And I’ll get it right 
I’ll get it right 
I’ll get it right
I’ll get it right
I’ll get it right
Again
I’ll get it right 
I’ll get it right
I’ll get it right
I’ll get it right
I’ll get it right 
I’ll get it right
I’ll get it right
I’ll get it right
Again
Again
Again
Again
I’ll never let you down
I’ll turn you back on our love 
See we live in color 
I will not sway
I hate your love not giving 
Like it was again
I will let you down
You’ll give
One day
One day
One day
One day
One day
One day
Let those tears hit the ground
Let those tears hit the ground
I’ll live another day 
I’ll float
And I’ll swim 
And I’ll swim 
In it 
Again

Conversation

Blackest point
Shoulder length
Falter slowly
Basic needs met
Follow the way
Shallow in depth
Money for hire
Tables a mess
Set up the void
Total the line
Fall out in circles
Hold up the life line
Savor the honey
Spread out the jam
Believe in something baby
It’s all in his hands
Seconds are over
Missiles in line
Freeze for a second
Kneel at your graves
Fables are told
Maybe is not going to do it
You fell in line
Like the rest of us 
Like the rest of us
In peace we come
A second too late
A second too late
To hold it once again
Before it slipped away

Blackest Point

Time to sleep 
It’s late
Come on 
I’m up 
5,4,3,2,1
It’s time to sleep 
It’s time to sleep 
Mountain’s gonna rise
Call your luck
Call your luck
Feelings left to the side
All things aren’t
All I think of
All the time

Fading slowly
Colors all around me
Feeding in front of one another
5,4,3,2,1

It’s time to sleep 
It’s time to sleep 
Under the mountain
Fears weight
Crushing you too hard 
I don’t know how long I…
I don’t know long 
How long I can wait
I’m stuck
I’ll come right out 

Sleep without 
The world around you
Spinning round
Deeply wonder if I will come all the way around

Dreaming of a lighter load
Follow you into ocean
Calling your name alone
So you can hear me falling
Deeply sinking love
Falling stealing love

I will sleep inside the mountain
Waiting for you
Carry you out of there
Will you find me
In the circle 
You
You are the mountain
You are the mountain
Time to sleep 
Time to sleep

Fears Mount

I walked through the city alone
With no where to go
I walked through the city alone
With no where to go
I walked into the blue hotel
Sat down by the old window 
Stared out at the lonely road
Where people and cars used to roam
Poured out like a bottles moan
Sang songs of love and regret
Made pretend that I was one of the guests
Ordered everything on the menu
Made a toast to the man in the back
Broke dishes just to see them smash
Looked down at the broken glass
My reflection didn’t look back 

I walked through the city alone 
With no where to go
I walked into the blue hotel
Sat down by the window
Our place to let it all go
All the bottles are empty or low 
Sang songs of love and regret
Made pretend you were there in your special dress
The one that looked best on the floor
Talked dreams of kids on the lawn 
Picking dandelions and smiling through yawns
Grabbed the table and shook it with fear
Not once did my reflection appear

Stared out at the lonely road 
Down blocks far from here 
A faint woman’s body appeared
Through rapid blinks she didn’t disappear
She walked into the blue hotel
Sat down by the old window
Ordered everything on the menu
Raised her glass to the man in the back
Broke dishes to hear them smash
Looked down at the broken glass

I walked through the city alone
With no where to go
I walked through the city alone
With no where to go

The Blue Hotel

I found home
Standing in the middle alone
Spell it out in tongues
Believer inside each one
Taste of honey 
Lavender in the weeds
Made of glass and wood 
Bottom fell out so you could 
I found home
I found home
Scent of anger in fear
Sprinkled with me
Out to the grass
Screens keep it out
Bee circling a crack
Wondering through your eye

I found home
Standing in the middle alone
Spell it out in tongues
Believer inside each one
Taste of honey 
Shingles fade into black
Window reflects what can come in and what goes out
Swept with wind and rain
Mouth in gape
Face to face with dreams 
Cycles of time kept you here

A Home

they're always calling softly through cloudy ceilings
take it down now
brick for brick so you'll save yourself
hold your phones up
stop and see yourself right now
stunted rainbows
curry sunlight
fallen on blind men
hold your hands out
feel the crushing motorcycle
fears deep
spreading fires through automatic fields

today is always away
today is always away
today is always away
today is always away
today is always away

Away

Voice 1

Ladle
Straightforward like me
Let it return
Looking for hope below 
Shadow worthless figure walking
Thumbs up
Stalwart
It’s you I’m looking for
It’s you that I have to fall back on
Sad songs don’t work anymore
Living life 
Stroke cold asleep 
Thank God for receding 
When we felt great
Books piled on the corner of 13th
Something how we think 
Some things never change 
Standing on the pages from your book
Think my regards are overlooked 
It’s great to meet you
Sad it’s over any day 

Voice 2 

Sad songs don’t work anymore
See things trickling down
Focused on the wrong thing
Lift you off the floor
Bloodshed eyes fool
Sad songs don’t work anymore
But I want you 
But I want you 
See your feet don’t rise off the ground
Can’t even fault you for the wrong anymore 
Sad songs don’t work anymore
Take me 
Lets go home

Ladle

The words don’t wait
The words don’t come out 
The words fall blind
You’re sweet 
Taking me with you
Taking me with you
The words don’t seem to come out of my mouth
The words they help get you out
The words are flooding the wires
Cause you can’t
Cause you can’t get them back 
Once they’re sent
Once it’s done
They’re out
The words 
You’re sweet 
Taking me with you
Taking me with you
The words
Can’t seem to find you
Can’t seem to find you
Can’t seem to find you
Can’t seem to find you
Can’t seem to find you
Can’t seem to find you

Fixation

I’m special
From there I grow cold
In the deepest hole
I can’t swim
Somewhere in the cold
Somewhere in the cold
I’ll listen
Hiding taking it in
You know
You know
You know
Where I am
But it grows inside 
I don’t see it right 
I don’t see it right 
I’ll go
On
I’m special
From there I grow cold
In the deepest hole
I can’t swim
Somewhere in the cold
I’ll go on again
Back up
I’ll find my way
I’ll climb my way back up again
Until then I’ll fall again
Over and over I swam
I swim

Somewhere In The Cold

I don’t want to see you turn like that
I don’t want to feel hopeless like that
If you want to see the bright lights shining
If you want to see the hopeless fall in
Grab your glasses 
Shine with light
Take a stand and lift it up
If you want to be just like her
Lift your voices 
Howl at the rain
I’m a visionary hopeless sound
Take a step in the right direction
If you want to see the home leave us
If you want to see the sky open wide
Take a listen and hear what I hear
Feel your bones and make them cry
It’s going to be a real good night
There’s going to be aggression in the air
I’m a visionary hopeless sound
Take my hand and we’ll fly away tonight

Disseminate

The light that bends around your soul
The branch that lent your hand
Go across the sand
Hope you’re alright
Hope you’re alright
I guess the light is the light
Hope
Take away the cause
May you enter me
Breathe with us 
I see you across the way
Your blood shot eyes say more than what you want to say
Be free
Be good
I think it’s time you be 
Understood
For us
For me
Leave the bombs
Drops around your heart 
Tender kiss around your flowering side
Enter the world what you want 
Oh be safe 
Be free now
Honesty is still ok

The Light That Bends

Voice 1

Here I am
Silent in the hum
My hands under my legs quivering 
I’m trembling 
The pain you caused me
I told you everything
You ran away and played with the kids across the street without me
As I sat there alone watching you carry on
I think that you like to see me squirm like a worm in the rain
I don’t care if you hurt 
Just keep me out of your words
I know that I am worth more than this as I sing along to our world
In the cold there’s a warm place for you where love and calm doesn’t mix with you
I know where to go when snow reaches your toes 
I open my eyes and see the sun
So go and play
Run as fast as you can
I’ll sit on my hands and wait awhile
Your Mother said you’ll be right back
And I opened my hearts door again
You never came back and waived from afar
I said my goodbyes  
And never came back

Voice 2

The pain you caused me
I told you everything
But you ran away to play with the kids across the street
You didn’t even look back
You didn’t even see me
I was invisible
I was hurt
I was sad
Your Mother said you’ll be right back
And I opened my hearts door and your didn’t come back
So I said my goodbyes
I said goodbye
Oh I never came back 
Oh I never came back 
Here I am
Silent in the hum
My hands under my legs quivering 
I’m trembling 
The pain you caused me
Oh the pain you caused me
I told you everything
But you ran away
Carry on
Bloody hell


Voice 3

Your words are cold
Cold
Cold
I wait for you with my hands under my legs
I’m shivering as you waive to me 
I thought I was your only one
But you to like to see me squirm
And you like to force my tears
I’m done with you and your hurtful ways
I’m tired of being your sick joke
I’m on my own
I’m walking tall with your name under my thumb 
Under control

Birds Fly

The day was black and white
The fallout fried the lights
The house shook and lifted 
Lifted off the foundation
The shutters shook
The timber cracked and spread miles ahead
And then I saw your face
Peering through 
Green and laughing 
You thought I was scared
But I’m not
Your days are numbered
As the time is set
I’m reeling from what you haven’t stormed
Friend Z, oh friend Z
The only reason your mad is they took your house
The same as mine
And your love 
They took that too
Where are we going
We know each other better than you think
It’s over

Friend Z

Pop culture 
Bent to your devices
It’s easier then 
Found the fall 
It’s all you get
Ready for anything in return
Confirmation is required
Dabble in your heart
Cause I have a big head
It’s a big day for you 
So open your eyes
And see
So open your eyes
And see me
Ah ha
Ah ha
Behold daylight
Culture in the shadows 
Flows like rivers
Hold your hand out
Shhhhshake my hand
It flows in the inside
It’s easier every day 
Since 1974 babe
Your hole your favorite son
Bears none now
Days are open
Go be a running father
And heaven knows your get
Hold your head higher
And shhhhshake shake the hand
There’s going to be brighter days
Just open your mouth and say something
Anything will do good
I know it hurts so much
It goes without saying
I know you wouldn’t tire too
Have your own opinions
Hold out your hand
And Shake, shake shake the hand
Shake, shake shake it all night
Shake, shake, shake the hand
Shake, shake, shake it all night
Shake, shake, shake the hand
Shake, shake, shake it all night
Shake shake shake shake…..

Shake The Hand

Eyes black hole
Entry far from gold
Lost feeling with you
Fallen angel sit up
The wind doesn’t fall like the rain
I feel the bumps on your skin
It’s that kind of day
Forever a dumb day 
Seconds count down one to ten
Oh It’s hard I know
Nothing is always right in front of you
Go slower you might reach the end
I’ll be there right around the bend
Hands in my pocket cold from the night before
Frozen solid I rise from the ashes once more
Sun hits the back of your hands and I say amen
I’m ready
I’m here for it
Just say the words
Let’s go on through the trees
Because nothing can stop you and me
Because nothing can stop you and me
Because nothing can stop you and m
Because nothing can stop you and
Because nothing can stop you an
Because nothing can stop you

Drums Like Horses

Me silent in the world calling sadness
Fears, hope, dead, dying in your clothes
Where will we go
When were dying slow
Close your eyes you’ll see further then
Turn your back on who’s lives you ruined
Keep moving as the time ticks down one to ten
Oh back again
Feel free to open your mouth 
Something good has to come out 
Something good has to come out 
Street spins as my hands fly
I can’t seem to get very high
Hold your palms higher in the sky
So I can get up and fly right 
I am flying like a bird
I am flying like a bird
Silent in the world calling sadness
Ooh
Ooh
Ooh...

Palms Down

Can’t keep my head on straight
I’m all over the place
Words don’t seem to come out my mouth
It’s all illogical stuff
I’m my worst enemy
Why is everything like climbing a tree 
Never to see what’s above
It’s psychological
I’m wasting away looking at what’s in front of me
It’s so large I can’t get around to see what’s in front 
It’s psychological
It’s psychological
Each step takes longer
Each look feels harder
My mind’s a mess
The stress is building inside of me
Making it harder to see what’s in front of me
It’s psychological
It’s psychological

Psychological

I see into only dream of us
I walk through boundless stairs of common ground 
Nobody is doing anything 
Stars intwined in harmony
Sky is empty of you
I’m growing slow without you
And I found the most amazing way to your heart
Lit ablaze the rooftops 
And the fire is an amazing site 
From above smoke billows through your eyes
I found the most amazing way to your heart 
Shattered in a million pieces
Swept up by the winds of long time gone
Isn’t our love truly amazing 
It’s truly amazing 
Neon green the sky is blazing 
Our love is truly amazing
Oh I found joy in the smallest places 
Down buried in your old heart 
Is it love 
I think you decide 
It’s rough but I know its truly amazing
Darling your heart failed you

Smoke Signal

I scream and shout
I want to feel the inside of your mouth
I want to fill your eyes with black
So you can feel what it feels like too
You think you’re everything
You think I am nothing 
Till
Till the blood
Till the blood
Runs down the street
It’s hopeless for me
It’s hopeless for me
I can’t seem to get it right
You’ll be damned inside
End the 
End the 
War 
End the 
End the 
End the 
War 

I look inside your sadness
Full of endless madness
Filling your head
I know it’s going to be crazy
When your eyes bug out like that
Why must you choke on my love
Take me down for what I’m not
To the seconds 
To the seconds we go 


You think you’re everything
You think I am nothing 
Till
Till the blood
Till the blood
Runs down the street
It’s hopeless for me
It’s hopeless for me
I can’t seem to get it right
You’ll be damned inside
End the 
End the 
War 
End the 
End the 
End the 
War 

I look inside your sadness
Full of endless madness
Filling your head
I know it’s going to be crazy
When your eyes bug out like that
Why must you choke on my love
Take me down for what I’m not
To the seconds 
To the seconds we go

Seconds

Pomade
Pomade
La Roche-Posay
Acca Kappa
Sunscreen
Motion to erase
Sodium chloride
Gently casts off
Brightest light
Heaven
Feeling so alone
I am switched by light 
Saxophone
Leaves float
The grass overgrown
Pomade
Black 
It’s like that
Plant’s dead
Feeling down
Shower in the morning
Hydro boost
Scrub a little longer
Vacation 
Smell the experience
Pomade

I’m ready 
I’m ready 
To start this day

Wretched silence
Five car pileup somehow
Ballads
A couple notes 
Center focus
Nucleus of light 
In the middle of the image
My mind 
My mind
The boy said go right
Up on the hill 
Slid to the bottom a hundred times
Wisp of hair in his eye
Look out
Window lights on
How did you know 
At such an early age
Thought I was insane 
For some time
Connection is weird
What happened to me
Happened to you
To make it blurry
Image cut in two 
All I knew that it was really important us
So I stood 
Sent signals 
In the space between me and you 
You
Stars around me
I hoped it reached you 
The window still blinks 
But the life that I live without knowing it reached the other side 
Til next time
When we go around
Til next time
See you in the corner shadow
Gaze opens at hello
Stuck in space in time 
This repeated
Lost his mind
Wretched silence
Five car pileup backwards
Somehow the ballads
A couple notes 
Center focus
Nucleus of light 
In the middle of the image
My mind 
My mind
The boy said go right
I think I’ll take a left this time

In The Middle Of The Image

“I think the sun will show” You said 
“And the rain will blow over our heads”
“It’s not the end of the world” You said 
“And it’s so warm, like the warmth of your skin”
Then you cried for a second

“Your younger than you think” You said 
“And time is still ticking ahead”
“It’s not the end of the world” You said 
“And it’s so warm, like the warmth of your skin”
Then you cried for a second

Everyday you make me feel
Like I’m alive and far from here
Like I’m alive and far from here
You said “It’s just the way you smile”

“I think the sun will show” You said 
“And the rain will blow over our heads”
“It’s not the end of the world” You said 
“And it’s so warm, like the warmth of your skin”
Then you cried for a second
Then you cried for a second

“Your younger than you think” You said 
“And time is still ticking ahead”
“It’s not the end of the world” You said 
“And it’s so warm, like the warmth of your skin”
Then you cried for a second

Everyday you make me feel
Like I’m alive and far from here
Like I’m alive and far from here
You said “It’s just the way you smile”

Show Yourself

Broken hand
A whisper taken out of context - yeah
Grass is spotted across the lot
Dog walker walking with a heavy heart
Fingers don’t seem to move very much
Clicking before your words come out
Desperately seeking
Desperately seeking

Your clothes
Dreams of flower beds
Seem to think that I forgot where I’m going to
But the world got smaller than your soul
The pain you all feel in me
Desperately seeking
Desperately seeking
Something better 
to hold on closely 
Whisper to you
Better contact 
The smell of those sweet ends to share

Broken hand
A whisper taken out of context - yeah
Grass is spotted across the lot
Dog walker walking with a heavy heart
Fingers don’t seem to move very much
Clicking before your words come out
Your clothes
Dreams of flower beds
Seem to think that I forgot where I’m going to
But the world got smaller than your soul

Desperately Seeking

I’m sad
My shadow walks
Grim and talk become one
People don’t understand who you are
I’m searching my whole life for what’s more
I don’t understand
Maybe you do 

Stretch back for the pillow
Feeling like I’m so alone
Hope there’s help above
And I’m reaching 
I’m reaching for the love
Pull me out 
Oh please pull me out of this hell
And the stars are so low
It feels like the sun is not above

I’m sad
My shadow walks
Life in sections broken we part
The blue sucks you in till your torn apart 
Roaming hills and sunset thrills 
Again and again we get back up
Waves of highlights and downfalls
We bend to it all
Marked the moment
Saw it for what it was
I’m searching my whole life for what’s more

I’m sad
My shadow walks
Grim and talk become one
People don’t understand who you are
I’m searching my whole life for what’s more
I don’t understand
Maybe you do 

I’m sad
My shadow walks
Grim and talk become one
People don’t understand who you are

The Dance

I walk alone when the streets are dim
You’re on my mind over and over again
Avoid the moon 
Pale like the glass of your skin
Blood curdles in the back of my mouth
Too easy for my teeth to come out
They call me Fang
I would never hurt you
Too precious to take 
Two circles on the back of my neck
Reminders of the past I led
I didn’t have a choice to live or be dead
They call me Fang
They call me Fang
I walk alone when the streets are dim
You’re on my mind over and over again
Over and over again
Bite down on the back of my hand
Life rushes into me again 
Hairs raise like the animal I am
Dead walking on the streets again 
They call me Fang
They call me Fang
They call me Fang
I’ll never hurt you
To precious to take 
They call me Fang
They call me Fang
I walk alone when the streets are dim
You’re on my mind over and over again

FANG

This is my last song
I chose your heart 
To have you by my side
Take what’s good 
Learn what you should
Shake up the dust 
Make it a must
This is my last song
Break down the walls
Luster of voice
Shout out into the void
Break up the clouds
Let the sun come out
If you watch the seas
Fill the void 
This is not a choice
It’s not a choice 
This is my last song
Take what you know
Swallow the cause 
Make up the fold
Let’s not burn easy
Of all things that you cared 
Don’t think too much
And you 
And you
And you
And you
Have the upmost ability to take what you got and make it great
I know 
I know 
This song will shadow 
It’s not your choice
It’s not a choice 
It’s your will to keep 
Singing for me 
Sing on 
Sing on
Sing on 

And You

Can it wait 
Wait for it
Something that’s cursed with us
Caught in a fog 
Fog you say
Thinking it’s calm 
Be mine
Welcome the sun
Cold 
Sun hugs waits end 
And you wait
Come cold
Shiver the sun goes away

Shiver

Ahh
Come to me 
It’s broken
Far from here 
You’ll see
Desperation in front of me
I know the reasoning
Fell back in line
Too much talk
I know 
I know
Oh I know
Something is waiting 
Around the bend
I wait
Open minded
It’s not your fault
I think 
I think
Oh I think
There’s my problem
I do 
Oh I do
For you
In return
I see impatience
Eating away at you
The full sentence is in the distance
Away from me
Oh
I know 
I know
I know
The world is lonely place without you
But I, I, I,
I think 
There’s a problem up ahead
Run, run, run, run, run, run to me
I’ll see what I can do
Run, run, run, run, run, to me
I’ll see what I can do
Ahh
Ahh
Dancing in the blue meadow 
Come to me 
It’s broken
Far from here 
You’ll see
Desperation in front of me
I know the reasoning
Fell back in line
Too much talk
I know 
I know
Oh I know
Oh I know
Something is waiting 
Around the bend
I wait
Open minded
It’s not your fault
I think 
I think
There’s my problem
I think 
I think
There lies my problem

Broken pieces of porcelain limbs
Turn on the tele for background noise
Filled up and over the rim
Black and white scenes smoking cigarettes 
Table is lit with laundry and things
Basic settings
Simple things
A tall glass 
Wisps of bangs
Soul begging eyes
They never let up
They never let up
They never give up
What lies behind
Slams his fist down
Dusty beacons come into one
Broken pieces of Jackies things
Scattered about
Wretched and ringed 
Till nothings leave
Closed doors of forgotten memories
Reach for another pour 
The finer things of life
The finer things of life
Come and go
But those eyes
Those lips quivering sip
A tall glass 
Wisps of bangs
Soul begging eyes
They never let up
They never let up
They never give up
