Osmium

Star like embers twinkle there, here to serve then disappear
Sweet glazed eyes shine in the night
Drunk on gleaming satellites
I am sinking to my knees, drowning here for all to see
Osmium is dragging me down
Get a grip, swim to the air, you will not find salvation here
osmium is dragging me down, dragging me down
Acclimate from soil to quicksand, Osmium's another land
Fool me once, now fool me twice
No man's too sound to sacrifice
Dragging me down, dragging me down
I am sinking to my knees, drowning here for all to see
Osmium is dragging me down
Get a grip, swim to the air, you will not find salvation here
osmium is dragging me down, dragging me down
I am sinking to my knees, drowning here for all to see
Osmium is dragging me down
Get a grip, swim to the air, you will not find salvation here
osmium is dragging me down, dragging me down.....

Surface Waves
04:00

Open on her open wide
I'm bracing till the two collide
I pick my teeth with slivers of bone
I've had my fill of nights alone
Come right in, I'll let you through
Give everything I've got to you
I'll keep my mouth sewed shut until my lips and tongue turn blue
You will find delusions here, at the mercy of the puppeteers
Surface waves lie just below, they call your name but you don't know
Dip your toe, I'll pull you in
Into this land of should-have-beens
And you will find you're gone
You've known it all along
Cut to summer, fade to fall
I've pinned my arms against the wall
Below my skin are surface waves
I'll scratch them out, I can't explain
Stop twisting thoughts inside your head
It's what it was, you can't pretend
And when you walk through broken glass you'll know you've made your bed
You will find delusions here, at the mercy of the puppeteers
Surface waves lie just below, they call your name but you don't know
Dip your toe, I'll pull you in
Into this land of should-have-beens
And you will find you're gone
You've known it all along

Strung Out
03:34
|

ooh, i've been slipping
i've been bargaining with time
i've got carnage on my breath
stealing kisses from the summertime
i swear it's not my fault
i'm just a little dizzy
i'll make it up another day
maybe when i'm not so busy
five feet past the deep end, i'm about to sink or swim
been to doctor after doctor, got a case of phantom limb
and i've been trying to get rid of this bad taste inside my mouth
but i'm going south
i'm too strung out
i'm hanging off the parapet
i'm climbing up the walls
i'm letting all my flowers wilt
because the plants i've grown were never mine at all
five feet past the deep end, i'm about to sink or swim
been to doctor after doctor, got a case of phantom limb
and i've been trying to get rid of this bad taste inside my mouth
but i'm going south
i'm too strung out
five feet past the deep end, i'm about to sink or swim
been to doctor after doctor, got a case of phantom limb
and i've been trying to get rid of this bad taste inside my mouth
but i'm going south
i'm too strung out
five feet past the deep end, pockets filled with skipping stones
i've got knives under my pillow, longing brittling my bones
and the devil on my shoulder beats the angel in each bout
i can't live without
i'm too strung out

Honey Blossom

honeybee, sweet
my love, you are what hidden things are made of
and i wanna be
with you, underneath the willow tree
the blossom nectar on our lips
try not to fall but we both slip
i had a daydream on a cliff above the sea
you and i had found a town and searched for hidden things
found peace of mind in mutability, honeybee
i send my love and get it back in threes
slept with your shirt
seven nights, i've been pretending you're beside me
but hornet-stings hurt
i've got my elbows locked, prepared to brace the fall
i had a daydream on a cliff above the sea
you and i had found a town and searched for hidden things
found peace of mind in mutability, honeybee
i send my love and get it back in threes
i had a daydream of a place I'd rather be
love buzzing round my head, the air as soft as honeybees
i've learned that things so good are dangerous
i'm hoping that my love will be enough to float the two of us

Lick
my lips
before I bite
I grow
my flowers
in the night
Come
home
to me
and I
will be alone
at the top of the hill
With acorn idents in my thighs
that makes your breath go still
Still
Love me, love me, say you do
Pull me under, deep and blue
Hold your breath and count to ten, deliver with conviction
Nail my hands above my head, I crave the crucifixion
I paint
my face
in pink
and white
I purr
Come home to me and I will be alone
You'll be mine to keep
To hold and sing you fast asleep
Love me, love me, say you do
Pull me under, deep and blue
Hold your breath and count to ten, deliver with conviction
Nail my hands above my head, I crave the crucifixion
Brush my hair a hundred times
I've learned to read between the lines
I'm complimented for my crimes
It's simply part of my design
Sunken every passing fleet
Crave the quickening heartbeat
Kiss the boys to make them weep
And in their mouths I'm bittersweet
Tie your arms onto the mast
Close your ears with ceiling wax
Only peer through fiberglass
But hear my sea song as you pass
Love me, love me, say you do
Pull me under, deep and blue
Hold your breath and count to ten, deliver with conviction
Nail my hands above my head, I crave the crucifixion

Comatose

don't let her mouth run
sweet as it is, love
send your hearts to the ocean
below the setting sun
i comes from things like sea foam
i and the flower moon in may
i leave my cards unshuffled
and depending on the day
i take my pills with root beer to
avoid the taste of apathy
find me where the wound has closed or
at the bottom of the sea
give until it hurts, swallow my thoughts until i'm full
at night put on my party clothes and suddenly i'm beautiful
the bellyache will sting but i can tolerate the hurt because i'm a big girl
i'm a big girl
can't take her no where
can't shut her up
she needs a hero
she needs to cover up
i speak in lowercase
no longer recognize my face
and there's pleasure in the pain
but this one's done and this one's stained
give until it hurts, swallow my thoughts until i'm full
at night put on my party clothes and suddenly i'm beautiful
the bellyache will sting but i can tolerate the hurt because i
give until it hurts, swallow my thoughts until i'm full
at night put on my party clothes and suddenly i'm beautiful
i'm a big girl
you're okay baby
it just gets a little crazy
been aggravated lately
been out of touch today
give until it hurts, swallow my thoughts until i'm full
at night put on my party clothes and suddenly i'm beautiful
the bellyache will sting but i can tolerate the hurt because
give until it hurts, swallow my thoughts until i'm full
at night put on my party clothes and suddenly i'm beautiful
the bellyache will sting but i can tolerate the hurt because i
give until it hurts, swallow my thoughts until i'm full
at night put on my party clothes and suddenly i'm beautiful
the bellyache will sting but i can tolerate the hurt because i'm a big girl
i'm a big girl

Echoes
04:40

lullaby traced underneath her eyes
i kissed it with my fingers, felt them melt off her disguise and
i realized
when the snow was gone that i was not invincible, i loved to slight and idolize
feel it now, it's something underneath
echoes in the hall are hissing in between your teeth
hands turn cold before the rush of heat
grab on tightly, let it nestle in between the sheets
it makes you twitch, makes you shudder in the storm
shame turns the apples of your cheeks scarlet and warm
can't recall, but i feel it in my chest
i've loved you longer than you know and i've confessed
clementines, in sweet and sour waves
i buried innocence and what it was in cold and shallow graves
and the rain
washed her slowly down like sediment and icy roads and left me calling out her name
feel it now, it's something underneath
echoes in the hall are hissing in between your teeth
hands turn cold before the rush of heat
grab on tightly, let it nestle in between the sheets
it makes you twitch, makes you shudder in the storm
shame turns the apples of your cheeks scarlet and warm
can't recall, but i feel it in my chest
i've loved you longer than you know and i've confessed
