Shooting Tuvia 01:54

Sun in your face The moon in your name Ancient Chinese children's games You wear your earrings like a plague Hands on your face It's the nature of faith so kill your idols just the same Makes them valid makes them brave

Murka Needs A Bed 02:24
lyrics

Shadows in the attic Filled with bones and cobwebs Soaking through the mattress Ghosts will guide the fog in And then begins this is the end Cut straight through the forest Slinging bows and arrows Blood stained red vined basket Silent eyes that follow The face of Greece The heart of Rome

I can't ride this rollercoaster Always been about these Highs and lows Scars still show Twenty seven years of frozen Winter words that fell Like feathered snow Like flowers grow

The Dutchess of Cromwell 05:03
lyrics
buy track
Birthright of a killer's baby Seemed so real it seemed so scary Counting all the gravestones Photograph could capture your soul Frame safe to keep both eyes closed Going all the way home Immature as innovation Hard to keep up hard to mention Into rubber skin bones Figurine kept in fortune's scene Made with magic Made it with dreams Garden of the dead known Keep both eyes closed

Sibling Rivalry 03:03
lyrics
buy track
People as things and damn these feelings for them Eyes closed from this laughter instead of boredom Holding a pose like you're some twenties actress Still smell the rain beads on your vinyl jacket Like foreign films your life poignant and passing Kept my stolen pair of clown red sunglasses Smile like a queen New York girl with thrift store jeans Drama can't dream your face if you're not sleeping

Hospital Bed 02:45
lyrics
buy track
Doctors and nurses Your life was a curse that you lived No use in crying You know that you're dying... you give Black coal and diamonds You're death is an Island where I live Blue eyes they rate you But they'll isolate you When you're not there Try and be subtle With soft words you muttered The moonlight praise It all makes sense

Truant Song 01:56

Beneath these cold lungs You're screaming in yellow On Thursday when time stops You martyr truants blood

Galileo 04:31
lyrics
buy track
Please don't move that rug It's this bottomless pit that I've drawn Pulled from bits and pieces Tiny fragments held by strands of yarn Rumplestilskin's linen clean cloth Cars cast shadows to the left side Street lights capture eyes Through this vacant night Empty canvas lumps of clay your face It was mine to paint It was mine to shape Keep that door closed less you want To watch the bones pour out like Niagara Falls Are they home or tourist Dead stars shine their ancient Light on us Galileo's memoirs rendered
