In the heart of your bones There’s a dark and jagged stone I’d give you my blood To see you laugh again In white rooms in tall buildings Cotton swabs and paper seats Hold your arm out Face in disbelief End High High In the halls of the blood bank I bring my band of thieves Fill my truck Pay the fines Just to see you dance Between two lines Call Cornelius It’s Saturday night At the walls of your river When it gets low I get my dimes back You don’t pick up the phone End High High

Isolation 03:42
Isolation is the bird in your mouth Thatís yearning to be free Memory is the wave coming out and Itís headed straight for me Dazzling, are your hands in the air Dark stars carving under Armies and armies of hurt Armies and armies of hurt Armies and armies and armies Isolation is a foot out the door A weather vane in reverse Crooked teeth with eyes pointed south Biting a silencing curse Heredity is a crash in the storm Wondering what could get worse Armies and armies of hurt Armies and armies of hurt Armies and armies and armies of hurt Armies and armies of hurt Armies and armies of hurt Armies and armies of hurt Armies and armies of hurt...

There’s a ghost In the farmer’s well Whose echoing voice casts a spell He calls my name And I can tell I’m hollowing out just like a bell I start to run Like a child Fear in my throat, my heart racing wild There are questions With more answers Than I wanna know Like all the reasons I hurt the people in my life ‘Til they finally go There’s a lake I sometimes go It tells me all the things I already know I start to break It feels like hell ‘Cus I’m empty as a shell I turn away Face to face With myself and the rising sun There are questions With more answers Than I wanna know Like all the reasons I hurt the people in my life ‘Til they finally go Changes and the damage done Changes and the damage done Changes and the damage done

Got caught again On the way out of town Got a dark cloud Following you around Always wondered what enough looked like And I still don't know Always wanted to be right there When they let loose the bulls I've had enough now I've got enough now I got enough to know I had enough now I gotta know Who's the next one to go? Home, right now Home, right now Have a new mess Looks a lot like someone you know Walked out and fell right down In the middle of the road I can feel it but I don't know it's there Til you tell me it's so Gotten old, but never grew up So now it's time to go It's over the line It's over now It's over the line Over and out It's over the line It's over now It's over the line Over and out of time I've had enough now I've got enough now I got enough to know I got enough now I gotta know Whose the next one to go? Home, right now Home, right now

Temptress 03:28
Temptress Where have you been All my life? Redlined, more champagne on ice Stay with me Please don’t go My hands Shaking thieves, tonight Black moon, cold, stealing light Stay with me All my life Faithless Where were you? Left behind, all of my life Cost my eyes Lost and blind Behind, champagne eyes

First Light 03:04
Paper the window Rocks in the drawers Long fall to winter Another Cold War News from abroad Are the blankets on the floor First light A crack in the mortar We’re coming back to where We’ve never been, never been before Ahhhh Ivory for color Slide for control Bow starts the break Chart strings the wake I’ve stopped sleep walking Through this life Sing tongue-tied and hands behind This babies bigger than anything First light A crack in the mortar Wait for me Will you wait? First light A crack on the mortar We’re coming back to where We’ve never been before Ahhhh Sing for a dollar Sold for a score

I remember the first time High on the wire How did it feel to lean into stars But never see the signs? Lost little savior is falling behind It’s alway random Never by design Don’t shoot until you see The light in their eyes Widening, falling from the sky The hands are waving never mind Nothing is spared But I’ll be there To hold you one more time

The Letter 03:09
The swallow sings to the cattail I do Flirts with the wind Gonna spread his wings Up to the sky Like a daughter’s eye Like a daughter’s eye Up in the sky Bring me a high note in the summer Crocus in the spring Tall pines in the winter So they can hear me sing Before the snow begins So they can hear, hear me sing Before the snow begins Before the snow begins So they can hear, hear me sing Before the snow begins Before the snow begins So they can hear, hear me sing Before the snow begins Before the snow begins

God it's late and you're tryin' Hard to get home God it's late and you're tryin' All on your own You won't make a sound You're gonna lose control Oh, and you're runnin', You're runnin' Oh, your runnin' again God it's late and you're tryin' To calm yourself down God it's late and you're tryin' To save yourself some You won't make a sound You're gonna prove them wrong Oh, and you're runnin' You're runnin' Caught in my arms It won't be long Caught in this song You wanna belong God it's late and you're tryin' Hard to get home God it's late and you're tryin' All on your own You won't make a sound You're gonna lose control Oh, and you're runnin', You're runnin' Oh, your runnin' again

Glowing Son 03:38
I can't say He won't try again But call off the day 'Cause we have him in custody And we may See ourselves Once again And call the authorities Ah,Let us in the door You know, I know Ah, Let us be alone I'm a glowing, glowing son Constant rage He won't talk to anyone Oh, in my day They'd laugh And say he was dawdling It's a shame He got away Gonna blame It on the authorities Ah, let us in the door You know, we know Ah, let us be afraid I'm a glowing, glowing son Hard to surprise anyone Who won't use their eyes Couldn't say, what he wanted Anyway

The children are laughing in the backyard Birds singing on the pine But I can’t hear Through the salt in my ear And the voices left behind Hear you crying from the kitchen Saying “Lord, what have we done?” If you don’t know How we got this low I’m not about to tell you hon’ Islands without bridges Broken bottles, dishes Pictures of you without shoes Fountains with no wishes Goodnight empty kisses Nights when the moon turned you blue Turned me too Leaves are changing for autumn Laundry waving on the line I can’t see In front of me Somebody turned down the blinds I’ve already signed the papers Left them on your writing drawer Before you try The ink is dry ‘Cus I don’t want to do this anymore Islands without bridges Broken bottles, dishes Pictures of us without shoes Fountains with no wishes Goodnight empty kisses Nights when the moon turned us blue Turned me too Turned me too
