Dynamite Flop
02:35
|

Out of control
holding our tongues
fill my heart with joy
sing until we’re numb
there’s vomit on the floor
but we’re feeling rather capitol
we don’t speak anymore
feeling like collateral
something wrong
something gone
something propping us up
we don’t know what
shrugging off the dust
we can’t tell what’s what
the reckless art of slow unravelling
oh honey, no…
we don’t want to rule the world
but we’re feeling quite invincible
we don’t speak anymore
feeling like collateral
something wrong
something gone
something holding us up
God knows what
keep your head up

Big Mood
02:38
|
|||
Through the night
through the fields
through the sleeping cities of steel
are we dreaming, are we real?
Are we lost or green or confused….
I’ll make it through
I never knew
I’ll make it through
I always do
It started bad and ended worse
in a bag of regrets and a bundle of nerves
hanging with the misanthropes
hanging on to the end of the joke
I’ll fake it through
I always do
I play to lose
black & blue
Do you want to break down?
turn me inside out, oh love
It’s a carousel
turning me around, oh love
almost get it right
stumbling through the night
until we’re gone
Big love, big lights
40 days of 40 fights
big love, big mood
I wish to god I never knew
I break in two
I always do
I break in two
I break for you
Do you want to break down?
turn me inside out, oh love
It’s a carousel
turning me around, oh love
almost get it right
stumbling through the night
until we’re gone

What's Your Cosine?
03:15
|
|||
as I walk upon the firmament
dreaming of a miracle
for reasons yet unknown
standing on the shoulders
of heaven sent, immaculate
little monsters be gone
watch my ego
rock the roll
watch my ego
do-si-do
as I lie beneath the wonderment
waiting on a miracle
from the great unknown
side by side we deliberate
hang your head, stay in bed, pay the rent, it never ends
sudden gestures
away we go
all the questions
roll your own
What’s your cosine?
What’s the angle?
I’m paralysed
I’m so tangled
unparalleled
I wish you well
I can’t help myself
taunting me
from the underground
we’ll never know
you’ll never tell
I’m paralysed
what’s your angle?
waste some time together
sweet repose
stare me down
when I forget myself
empty turnstiles
apropos
we’ll never know
What’s your cosine?
What’s the angle?
I’m paralysed
I’m tangled
Are we parallel?
I can never tell
I can’t help myself
Are we parallel?
I can never tell
Are we parallel?
I can’t help myself

Hand Over Truth
02:34
|
|||
Hand over truth, over the moon
you be me and I’ll be you
watching the lights devolve
walk in the loneliest rapture
awash in the emerald street
you know I know our disinvitations
off of the record on top of the world
losing our disinclinations
Are we being followed?
Are we being followed?
rub our hands raw
scrubbing the walls
someone to rely on
as we run the numbers
I know the over and under
bet today!
Hand over heart, falling apart
thunderous applause we’ve had enough
What can we do? All over the news!
too optimistic for my blood
yeah…yeah…yeah!
capture the moment and then some
Are we being followed?
Are we being followed?
we rub our hands raw
now we’re climbing the walls
someone to rely on
free at least I wonder
the heart is the loneliest hunter
I know the over and under
better days

Bitters
01:53
|
|||
this charming mess was meant to be
our incomplete catastrophe
it’s time to pick up the pieces, it’s time to lose
I’ve got the bitters, you’ve got the moves
knock me senseless
feeling reckless
I keep forgetting you
I’m feeling generous
you’re looking venomous
we’ve got the sleeping sickness, all over you
I’ve got the bitters, you’ve got it too
out like a light
ready to fight
kiss me goodnight

Fremont Forever
03:26
|
|||
it’s hard to think
hardly worth thinking about
it’s hard to see
how our luck turns around
I suppose
we’ll go quietly
a brave new world
but I don’t want to be
she waits
until the darkness leaves
such a waste
on our side of the street
it’s hard to sleep
with all this racket running around
I tried to fold
but there’s no limit to this town
HIGH HOPES
I beg to disagree
a brave new world
but we’re not meant to be
we break
oh so quietly
I know
there’s a light that waits for me
a bitter taste
standing in the street
take me away
from these lights that never sleep
WE HAD HIGH HOPES
WE HAD HIGH HOPES
WE HAD HIGH HOPES
WE HAD HIGH HOPES
WE HAD HIGH HOPES

A Frosty Reception
01:54
|
|||
Bracing ourselves
for a frosty reception in hell
oh we’ll never tell
what we keep hidden and where
wait to be dropped and then held
dynamite acolyte
I call you pretty
now more’s the pity
bittersweet remedy
buy me a ticket
the distance between us
Penniless psycho
penitent acting dismayed
breaking the window
five time heavyweight
learning to levitate
Enemy, friend to be
I called you pretty
you called it too late
talk to me, out of reach
I call it love
you call it wasting away
oh no, alone

Hot Summer Fights
03:26
|
|||
kicking & screaming
carry on
a funny feeling
at a loss
I don’t know
the time slows
it goes and comes
it comes and goes
I don’t know
hold me close
I’ve seen a ghost
to and fro
letting go
hope against hope
speaking in code
home isn’t home
between the lines and
drifting off
the noise and silence
what we’ve lost
letting go
hope against hope
speaking in code
home isn’t home
staring me down
over and out
I guess
we’re racing towards the end
sleeping it off
tearing it down
again
it doesn’t matter which
copy that
copy that
copy that
I wanted you to know
over and out
staring me down
again
when I forget myself
I don’t know
I don’t know
it goes and comes around
letting go
hope against hope
speaking in code
home isn’t home
staring me down
over and out
again
racing towards the end
sleeping it off
tearing it down
I guess
it doesn’t matter when
copy that
copy that
copy that
I’ve seen a ghost
copy that
copy that
copy that
don’t let me go

Everything fine, everything strange
It’s all happening again
It’s a little off, a little odd
and it’s all been going wrong
art on the floors, love on the walls
wake up the street when you come home
drifting in then out again
hanging on by a thread
I’ve been waiting for you
I’ve been waiting for you
I’ve been waiting for you
I’ve been waiting for you
Call the cat, pray for rain
It’s all happening again
a little more than a little less
so you take what we can get
love on the floor, paint on the walls
wake up the street when you come home
drifting in then out again
hanging on by a thread
I’ve been waiting for you
I’ve been waiting for you
I’ve been waiting for you
I’ve been waiting for you
watch me now, watch me now
we’ve been running backwards
catch me now, catch me now
we’ve been running backwards
now, you’ve got me now
you’ve got me now
you’ve got me now
you’ve got me now
you’ve caught me now
I’ve been waiting for you
I’ve been waiting for you
I’ve been waiting for you
I’ve been waiting for you
