Well little darling crawling around
she keeps my skin sagging from the ground
lord i know, it wont last much longer.
Well little darling creeping in
I feel her gaze start to break the skin
lord i know, I don't want out.
"when you're here, you're here for good"
10,000 ways I've seen it, dark eyes malnourished
looking to feed again, Oh my I'm the feast once again.
Well now my honey's dripping sin
she get my feet dancing once again
lord i know, I'm in love with this.
I had a gut feeling this was it
trapped in my lovers grasp, there's no regret
I know i don't want out.

Conjure in the Night
03:44
|

Our dreams became a blur
what was real now turns to unsure
it's nothing new it's all the same things we used to do
it's all the same things we used to do.
"what was real now turns into you
i don't know what to do, its a certain hue of something new
refuse to accuse you, I agree baby to misuse you"
"The dream came in the night
conjuring the fear and freight"
Our dreams became a blur
what was real now turns to unsure
its nothing new its all the same things we used to do
its all the same things we used to do.

How Mean
04:17
|
|||
Let dreams be dreams
let night be night
let love find you darling and hold you tight.
even if it was up to me
we'd all be alone, finding faults in our homes.
What else can I prove to you?
is it something you need to hold on to?
I guess we'll wait and see
just how mean you can be
how mean.

Someone To Hold
04:02
|

There's only two ways a man can go
one is left and the other leads to home
I don't know how much longer i'll live
I don't see reason to fight the end
"And now you see I'm here, you wont ever disappear again"
Tell me my friend, what you do?
I'm so lost without you
I'm so alone, no one to hold
I cry at night when I'm feeling bold.
"And now you see I'm here, you wont ever disappear again,
Oh my friend you wont go far, you know you won't flee from me"
Maybe i couldn't use another friend
Maybe i wouldn't be in the place that I'm in
I'm so alone, no one to hold
I cry at night when I'm feeling bold
Oh my friend you wont go far, you know you wont flee from me
oh please tell me its nothing else that I could do
I need a friend to hold, I just need someone inside my bones.

Little woman don't you know
I love you ever so
I'd die nine times before I'd ever let you go.
"Who are you? i don't know, who am I? I'd like to know
I feel so out of control, please dont leave me now I beg."
Don't go
Please don't go
And if I ever die to soon
I'd still dream of you
I would rise from this tomb for you.
She cries she moans
any which way
she live in a house down by the grave
she cries she moans
chain and whipped
barks for the moon
never content

I dont get a thrill
hanging out your window sill
as soon as i get there
sooner i left
my eyes dream to see the chase
that is behind me
look into the mirror
nobody there for me to see
I saw the world it was a creep
looking laughing at me
I saw the world and it's a creep
always looking laughing at me
as I get around
I drip to the sound of you
tell me what to do
I'm a fool for you
and it's true
lord it's true
I dont know
who to be
when I'm around
you.

Let's Not Pretend
03:40
|

I've been gauging you my friend, since we began
you're a snake he says, low down dirty man
and i don't want no part of that.
You think could stomp me out
like a cig butt misplaced
and now I'm not worried about it
not worried about it.
"I've tried and I've tried to explain this right, I've been walking tightrope in my mind"
Now you seem to be confused if I'm true
And i know I've made mistakes
but that doesn't concern you
I'm lucky enough to have a beautiful best friend
to offer her hand and help me get back on track
"Lord and now I see, now I see it all so clearly, you are your
insecurities"
Lets not pretend
Lets not pretend.

Moon Juice
03:52
|

Instead of cry
crying for you
I grab a new face
borrowed from the moon.
I know i feel, like a floating eye
drowning down the old river of life
"Moon juice for two, I will share with you, you know i will"
And when i shine
shine for you
I grab a new face
borrowed from the moon
I know I feel like a floating eye
drowning down that goddamn river of life

Into a Trap
03:41
|
|||
There a'int a reason to be afraid
you're never gonna live the rest of your days
and if I was to leave for tomorrows grave
I'd catch a bus and leave today.
"Now I fall into a trap, laughing at all the stabs that are in my back
maybe pull out a blade and stab you back, bounce back up and get
back on track"
There is a reason to be afraid
you're never gonna live the rest of your days
and if I was to leave for tomorrows grave
I'd catch a bus and leave baby today.
"I dont give a goddamn who remembers me, let me drift
into the sea and sand let them find my bones and washed up
skin on their foreign lands. let me go, let em right in my soul
let me fall fall fall"
"Now I fall into a trap, laughing at all the stabs that are in my back
maybe pull out a blade and stab you back, bounce back up and get
back on track"

Died A Long Time Ago
05:48
|

Oh, cry and weep
lord I don't get much sleep these days
I lie awake with blood on my face
I don't know
without a trace I leave this all behind
I don't ever wanna live this life again
let me die with half as many friends
and now I wake
cry myself back to sleep
give me something new
I'm sick of you
let me live, cry, fight the fight
I don't ever wanna live this life again
let me die with half as many friends.
lord I know I'm not alone I swear it is in me
lord I know someone else is here I swear it isn't me
I know it is in me
There was a woman crawling in my skin
I said no baby
not again
I just left you alone
hoping you would do the same
now I'm alone
with this salty grin on my face
I died long ago and now I see
the woman I fear is me
the woman I fear is me
the woman I fear is me

Helping Hand

Trouble in your life alone
crying a single tear with no one to hold
well I've felt this way twice before
I don't ever wanna feel that way anymore.
The widow creeping, sleeping alone
making little children out of her bones
anything's better than being set free
but she's been dead baby to me.
Think you're a queen
Stockholm's for alone
well I've felt this way baby twenty times before
I know you're feeling right
judging our life but you should have a look at your insides.
"You might be wrong, you might be right, who knows? It's all a
lucky strife"
Hold it together like you are alone
pushing out a billion things to do at home
you are a friend I thought, maybe I was wrong?
but now baby I'm singing a different song.
"You might be wrong, you might be right, who knows? It's all a
lucky strife"

Hey Penny
05:15

Suitcase full of pennies and a mindful of change
all them memories of you keep me locked away
I never thought I would be here again
when you turned me down and put us to an end.
"Those chains keeping your mind are bound to fall down when we go around and find. We know all the things you've stole"
Any which way you go I know I will be
slowly creeping below.
Every eye that you meet falls down to the lonely street.
Suitcase full of pennies and a mindful of shame
all them memories of you keep me locked away
I never thought I would be here again
when you turned me down and put us to an end.
