Behind Walls 03:31
Empty your purses and wallets Cash in your gold and jewels This is the chance of a lifetime Quit your jobs and start anew We’ll build a shining beacon A watchtower on a hill When strangers come crashing our gates We’ll take a vote on gets in New laws will keep us protected Fanatics will be kept at bay Admit we’re all in this together Intrinsic bonds never melt away…

Your Bones 04:33
Sinking sands, sinking where I don’t know Tripping wires, triggers what I don’t know Applaud your sense of security Composed beyond neo-modernity Sealed notes, concealing what I don’t know Broadcasts, feeding me what I don’t know Applaud your sense of security Composed beyond neo-modernity Here’s the site now throw your tantrum Mirrored glass an emerald rostrum If you only know What you see Then you’ll never know Your own bones

AWOL 04:45
Wherever I lay my head Is there trouble brewing? Cast a gaze onto the street Pairs of eyes stare back through Wherever I lay my head Wasn’t the worst decision Kept a day-pack by the door Should have seen me running Wherever I lay my head Need to know I’m safe Cedars keep watch while I rest Clutching a torn wool afghan Amused, reduced Unfurled Transfixed, I am the fool I am the fool Whenever I lost my head There was trouble brewing I lied down within a well Stayed hold-up for rescue

Yield 04:45
Hear no noise now Caught of guard Caught in a wave that pulled me under Surrendered to a megalodon Caught in a train wreck In a dirigible popped by a talon On my lonesome Locked in a vault Feeling a sense of asphyxiation All creation comforts you Hear no noise now
6.
A Silhouette 03:35
There are boats passing by as I pace the beach I’m trying to find one spec of sand Been up and down this coastline All I see are bottles I threw to sea Children are laughing as they bury their friends As thousands of tourists bake in the sun Been back and forth along the surf All I need’s a silhouette inline with me Once I told you we’d meet on the dock Curl our toes on the edge of the last plank Clasped hands we’ll count down from 3 Feel that silhouette hovering over me
7.
The Descent 03:30
Tax man says he’s coming to round up all our things Exiled to the land I tried to resist Corrugated cardboard box taped up everything we own Don’t weep for these walls it’s not your fault A sound, a sound Keeps us awake at night A sound, a sound Like bundled dynamite Escorted from the premise neighbours watch from their lawns Descend into the beast’s belly of the town A sound, a sound Keeps us awake at night A sound, a sound Like bundled dynamite A light, a light Shines through a thousand blinds A light, a light Shines in your deadweight eyes
8.
Neon Cross 05:16
You’ve got a neon cross It’s lighted blue in case you get lost Walking through your city streets You always know where to get relief Going to the front gates You pay a quarter to meditate Talking to the holy man Your neon cross is such a sham Throw your burdens at me Or you toss them to the cross And either way you’re forgiven You know I’ve been hated It’s lit up like Times Square Your neon cross has quite a glare I’m going to drive right past Don’t have the time don’t have the gas To leave my car idling While you explain your convictions Still, I’ll be there when you die And pull the switch on your neon light Throw your hatred at me Or you toss it to the cross And either way you’re forgiven You know I’ve been hated

Me and You 06:06
Calling the black sheep home From moss fields he knows to roam To shelter from rain and snow And bask in your fluorescent glow Gauging the pros and cons The shepherd tends the flock Lions and wolves prowl down Black sheep follows you around But what if he strays? Down in the valley between here and there Would it matter anyway? There’s nothing to compare It’s always me and you and you It’s always been Can’t it just be you and me From now on So it’s always me and you Just me and you
11.
And You 03:35
12.
This Place 05:15
Riding there on this machine a creation that should not have been Still I hold on tight as dust and soot flies into my eyes and I wait In this life I choose to live far beyond what is understood Wave goodbye to where old borders lie time to begin and draw new lines And this room will be magnificent again I swear in a foreign language And will shake the whole foundation down, I’ll see to that myself If you think it can’t be done, I’ll show this whole fucker’s coming down Wave goodbye to where old borders lie time to begin and draw new lines
13.
You woke up to comfort me again From lightning strikes, long brontides A shift in air that began at sea I brushed off habutai sheets Stood by the pane, with mouth agape As water drowned our private beach
