I have written a book,
a compilation, take a look
It's got everything I ever thought of you
It's called "I Don't Know What In The World To Do"

I have written a play
It's just one act
But anyway, in it is everyone I ever knew
All saying what I thought of you
Such a shame
Such a shame
Such a shame
Such a shame
In the cinema today
I was half-asleep drifting away
There was no one else in my row
And we floated up from the world below
Till there was no one left on the ground
There was only dust then the sun went down
In the shade
In the shade
In the shade
I see your shape when I play

Darkness

Cheat on yourself. You should.
The Captain has slipped.
The wood's under your ship.
Reason has slipped away
into the belly of the imperial day.
No one else has to know.
It's just only you. Only you. Only you.
If you think so.
Reason has slipped away
into the belly of the imperial day.
What are you hiding? Nobody knows now.
Ice on the island. Eyes in the me cloud.
When I get the feeling, descend to the mountains now...
or bound to the sealine and the darkness in your house.
Then when I'm the Sword and Shield,
You're in your bright brick fortress and forcefield.

War Disciple

War Disciple won't let anyone rest anyone rest
He says "I'm going to carry it everywhere I go till I get so as it's not there it's not there it's not there anymore now."
It's not there
It's not there
It's not there
Anymore now
Your idea is just so unclear
I don't want it anywhere near me
No.
Pull away from your darker heart
Until I fall apart
or fall over myself out the window
Oh, oh, oh, oh,
Oh, oh, oh, oh,
Oh, oh, oh, oh,
Oh, oh, oh
To the ground below
But it's not there
it's not there
it's not there anymore now.
With your little raccoon eyes
all full of lies
crazy inside baby I know
Move to the world
Just to be sure
Just to be the girl with the halo
And the holy glow
But it's not there
it's not there
it's not there anymore now.
it's not there
it's not there
it's not there anymore now.
It's Not There Anymore Now.

Miner's Song

Up on the roof at night
You are the silence I am saving
Hold still you're my kind of silent prayer
O' God
They're not gonna find us
They're not gonna find us
They're not gonna find us
There
Up on the roof at dawn
but the sun never rose at all
So called Day-Breaking
O' Children
you're my kind of silent prayer.
My God
They're not gonna find us
They're not gonna find us
They're not gonna find us
There
(solo)
My name is your name
My name is your name
My name is your name
Is your name
Is your name
Is your name
Your name is my name
Your name is my name
Your name is my name
Is my name
Is my name
That never changed.
When you're lower than underground
Than the sea-level and the sound and sinking
You're still and always no cross to bear
I don't care
They're not gonna find us
They're not gonna find us
They're not gonna find us
There
Up on the roof at night
You are the silence I am saving
Go children, you're my kind of millionaire
My God
They're not gonna find us
They're not gonna find us
They're not gonna find us
They're not gonna find us
There

Daylight

Get through life
Break your knife across the back that you slide
Fear in the night
Anger in the daylight
Fear is the bridegroom
Anger is the bride
All of their violence like a child inside of you
Take to the floor
Shut, lock the door
You don't need to need more and more
Everything you get you've got in store for you
With any end in sight
then all this time is alright
But when the end goes on
then the first one that comes
is the same as the ninth or
the third one that comes along
Get through life
break your knife across the fear that you hide
Fear in the night
Anger in the daylight
When you are the bridegroom
I am the bride of everything lost in the light that dies for you

Your House
05:00

I guess I'll stay over your house
I guess I'll stay over your house
I guess I'll stay over your house
Way over it now
Way over it now
Way, way, way up off the ground
I guess I don't come
When you call me in
I guess I don't come
When you call me in
I guess I'll stay calm
When you call me in
your voice tell me
"...have to make a choice, boy..."
I guess I'll stay over your house
I guess I'll stay over your house
I guess I'll stay over your house
Way over it now
Way over it now
Way, way, way up off the ground.

Some Brave Token
05:11
|
|||
There's no reason
just this meanness that you call when you call
Dust to mouth
Cloud to cloud
Bed to bed 'till you fall
And everyone in here whispers in my ear
"Can't you tell? You wear it well."
Everyone in here whispers in my ear
"Can't you tell? You wear it well."
Some brave token
Half-spoken
Half a breath then you fall
Dust to sound
Cloud to ground
Field of fire
your whole heart burns down
While everyone in here whispers in my ear
"Can't you tell? You wear it well."
Someone leading
Someone leaving
It's so easy to fall
Dust to mouth
'Till you're inside out
While everyone in here whispers in my ear
"Can't you tell? You wear it well."
Everyone in here whispers in my ear
"Can't you tell? You wear it well."
Everyone in here whispers in my ear
"Can't you tell? You wear it well."
