Just So You Know

Hold me now
Before I realize
Just how crazy we both are
And it's alright
If you lie
And tell me I'm like heaven to you
Just so you know
I think you're beautiful
Even if my words get twisted up
On the way out
I always
Seem to find myself
Standing on the other side
Where the lands are all wasted
And nothings left but doubt
Drawing your reflection
Just so you know
I think you're beautiful
Even if I only ever say it
on the way out

Thoughts Of A Dry Brain
04:16
|
|

Broken thoughts
Seem to take the place
Take the place of all the windows
Lined up on the wall
As soon as I collect them
Don't know how to use them
To comfort me
And the shine
We have lit inside us
And we can't control it
Sometimes makes us god
Sometimes makes us crazy
Don't know how to use it
To comfort me

Shimmer
03:46
|
|

It's just a shimmer
So far away
Does it stay
At the back of our mind?
Just before sleep comes
Are the moments when it's all clear
But too far to call on
Leave me be
Don't cover me..
You've been sitting lately
Counting the time
It slips by so gently
Like it's done no crime
It's just the weather
And a forgotten song
It's been long since we
Did ourselves right
Do you want a lie
Or a sincere goodbye?
It's just a shimmer
So far away
Does it stray if we don't try and touch it?
Maybe we're better off pacing ourselves
So we just might see
A little more clearly
We just might care
A little more dearly

Ship

Some ship you've been building there
Planning to search everywhere
I almost believed you had found a way
To block out the sound
I know all the places you hide
And where all your colors collide
I still think it's lies you portray
I'm still sorry
I gave it away
You never adjusted to light
Do you ever put up a fight?
If that marvalous heart should awake
Don't you think it all just a mistake
So what if it's just time we buy
Won't you even try?
I still think it's lies you portray
I'm still sorry
I gave it away
Go ahead run for the hills
In search of your happy pills
I don't think I'll come with you dear
I think I'll build my kingdom here

White Laundry
03:34
|
|

I don't care much lately
For conversation
Put together carefully
And well rehersed
I wish your world was empty
I wish my bed was lonely
Just lavender dreams
I don't want to define our illness anymore
I don't care much lately
For conversation
Put together carelessly
And easily reversed

Confusion
04:21
|
|
||
Some days I'm just wrong
And for no apparent reason I slip
Fall face down
From time to time
Circles beat the squares
I swear it's worth your while
I can only hope to see
A different cloud each day
To hear a different array of sounds
I can only hope you find the time to get lost
We simply must embrace confusion
Some days it's just echoes
That make melodies
I'll take it happily

Malpensa
03:24
|
|
||
On a plane
To find a precious place
To talk about things
That don't come easily
And I wanted
It to crash so bad
Just so I could feel right
Just so I could kiss you right
You see things as they are
As I pull apart
Wire by wire by wire
And the shine
It seeps out of your pores
Keeps me warm for days at a time
I don't know where I started
I just know I've stopped
And I really am sorry

Toothless
03:57
|
|
||
This room is occupied
By a million icicles
That coat won't ever be enough
To control the trembling
I don't have anything nice to say
Just ambivalent headshakes
I'm the biggest letdown
A toothless predator
If you'd just cut me down
I could stop pretending
I don't have anything nice to say
Just ambivalent headshakes
I don't have anything nice to say
I don't have anything nice to say
I don't have interesting takes
Just continuous headaches
