Great wear Hit the road and feel a cool back It’s not right To be the trouble in someone else’s life Better ways To eat the haze, eat the haze Up and drunk and far away Crash into Just the people that want you Just the records you’d make out to Too tight Something’s wrong with this bitter peace Face the drone And claw together glass for a home Pointless chest Holding vague streams of air for days When you see me far from home Let it out For the people that want you For the records you’d break up to We stand in a growing glow
2.
I’m becoming a wandering bull With strong young bones And I get scared That all the space will just fold away I’m becoming a growing tide Born from hopeless rain And I shout for air While the coast falls away You couldn’t hold me back If you used golden chains Goodbye To blood for reason Goodbye To our young bones Goodbye To our course We pull at golden chains I’m becoming a dull tipped arrow Aimed a marble chest And I shout wind To steer me off course You couldn’t pull me back If you used golden chains Goodbye To blood for reason Goodbye To our young bones Goodbye To hopeless rain We pull at Goodbye To blood for reason Goodbye To our course Goodbye To hopeless rain We pull at golden chains

Ceramic Tide 03:51
Begin to thaw Begin to boil Haul of great held breath As far and as unbolted As we can be On the Ceramic Tide It’s only tragic Until I prove you wrong Left and grounded, too As far and as unbolted As we want On the Ceramic Tide Begin to wish That it’s only cold Without your teeth around her It’s you and you know it On your own On the Ceramic Tide

Bloom 03:06
It’s eyes The glare of, the bad days It’s lies You feed off, leave me wild It’s all your thighs I hold on when the mouth gets cold Tape me to the shower wall So I’m forever starting the day It’s wild The way we, treat ourselves There’s not a door I can nail enough I want it shut Bloom, then quit The fear of an empty space

In Life 04:31
n life in life There’s god and there’s me In life in life There’s god and there’s me And on your finishing day I slept in late and missed my seat But we went out all the same Then back To the valley After life after life There’s words and there’s tea After life after life There’s words and there’s tea And all the bad things come in waves Two funerals in a week Then none for a year Dave was fifty-seven, they sent him out to sea His young daughters spoke And then we drunk tea In love in love Hold tight to me In love in love Hold tight to me I climbed the rope fort By the sea Fell and hurt my neck and hurt my right knee I was loose and full of desire In love in love With the long night

Inside 04:31
Inside Every move Our trim nails on the carpet smooth Wall’s in trouble in the room again We’re here in trouble in the room again Inside It’s fucking light out in the city now I don’t want to be I don’t want to be Thought I’d make it Past the hollow faze The fear of being and behaving strange Fuelled on pain You punched by chest and pulled me in again Inside Inside The claws are gripping At our backs again And I am born To be sorry For the long night Hoped to grit it through this lonely gain Engine running and driving straight Fuelled on pain You punched my breath and pulled me in again Inside
8.
Thiamine and a midnight scene Playing for me Thiamine and a midnight scene Take it away One night I’m going to take the red lights Out to you Pull in slowly And cut the engine Find the bottle under the seat Knock and wait by the double side door Squeeze my toes to feel my feet In some ways I’m a red meat lover A good time when we meet In other ways I’m a lost kid trying To sleep enough and remember to eat One night The red lights will flicker And die, bulbs burst But we will run them And hunt with guns drawn To feed our thirst In some ways we’re red meat lovers A good time always comes first In other ways we’re shipwrecked children Cursed, cursed, cursed

Dream Doubt 04:10
Let Let it all fall about Dream Dream doubt When When it all smalls about Dream Dream doubt Let Let it all small about Dream Dream doubt
