Alona
You can do it Alona
Go out on your own
You don’t need them no more
Go out on your own
Over the mountains
Between the rivers
Forgotten lovers
Technicolor flowers
Over the towers
Between the bridges
Forgotten our
Forgotten powers
You can reap what you sow
Or you can light it all up
Just to watch it glow, just to watch it glow
You never needed a home
Just fall asleep in the snow
It’s a peaceful cold
Over the mountains
Between the rivers
Forgotten lovers
Technicolor flowers
Over the towers
Between the bridges
Forgotten our
Forgotten powers

Sun Scream
I can't believe
That the sun has come back for me
I thought the night had swallowed me up in a dream
But the sun has come back for me
I just hope this daydream
Can make us clean
I'm a goner
So long, yeah?
I'll meet you by the water, it’s warmer
We're all alone here, no wonder
That we want each other for longer
All your power
Those itching hours
Almost devoured
But I'm not your coward
I can't believe
That the sun has come back for me
I thought the night had swallowed me up in a dream
But the sun has come back for me
I just hope this daydream
Can make us see
I'm a goner
So long, yeah?
I'll meet you by the water, it’s warmer
We're all alone here, no wonder
That we want each other for longer

None of the Others

So I spent a while talking into the wall
No one says they seen it, but they heard it all
Dispose of your patience and your canned rapport
Live the holiday disease with a centrefold, but
None of the others
Come close to you darling, no
None of the others
None of the others
Spinning spiral dream is what we had before
No one can believe it when they wreck it all
I sink my arms in the water and the tidal pool
I’m going under and there is nothing I can do
All I can do is think of you and think of you, just think of you
None of the others
Come close to you darling, no
None of the others
None of the others
None of the others
Come close to you darling, no
None of the others
None of the others
I want nothing from you but your love
I’ll give you everything you’re dreaming of
I want nothing from you but your love
I’ll give you everything you’re dreaming of

Table Manners

We dragged our friends into the forest now
Forget your table manners and your frown
We spent our time around a pack of trees
And drowned our minds beneath the spiral leaves
Everything was
Everything, Everything was talking
Everything was
Everything, Everything, Everything
I spent a week staring into the sun
Till everything I knew became undone
If I was sure then I am surer now
If I forget you got to show me how
To walk my dreams into the waking world
And talk to animals and Elvish girls
You tell the sea it’s taking way too long
To drag me deep into its violent arms
Everything was
Everything, Everything was talking
Everything was
Everything, Everything, Everything
Start listening
Start listening
Everything is talking
Start listening
Everything is talking
Start listening

In Threes

I thought that good things came in threes
And I was free to breathe easily
But all my luck ran out at once, it wasn’t enough
I watch it scatter endlessly
Last night I caught you in my head
All over again but I think it was just lucidity
I’m only kidding myself again
I’m only kidding myself again
I thought that good things came in threes
And I was free to speak honestly
But all my luck ran out at once, it wasn’t enough
I watch it scatter carelessly
Last night I caught you in my bed
All over again but I think it was just another dream
I’m only kidding myself again
I’m only kidding myself again
Are we just kidding ourselves again?
I’m only kidding myself again

All I Really Want
03:15

I can feel your eyes
Digging holes through the back of my skull
No reason to hide
When everybody is going to hell
I don’t believe you’re shy
I can hear your thoughts I can read your mind
What I found inside
Makes me want to leave it all behind
All I really want is to get next to you, get next to you
I take a deep breath
My thoughts are heavy and the air is thick
There’s a hanging smoke silhouette
Clinging to the curls in your long, long hair
Vibrations feel sticky
Pulling us closer and closer together
To a point where we’re clutching on
And teasing out a piece of heaven
All I really want is to get next to you get next to you
All I, All I really really want
Is to get next to you, get next to you
I can feel your eyes
Digging holes through the back of my skull
No reason to hide
When everybody is going to hell
I don’t believe you’re shy
I can hear your thoughts I can read your mind
What I found inside
Makes me want to leave it
Makes me want to leave it
Makes me want to leave it

Who Am I to Say

Days turning into nights
Waves washing clean our eyes
Change, you’ve changed I barely recognise
Promises that don’t materialize
Runaway Runaway
Running out of things to say and places to stay
Runaway Runaway
Running out of People to sway your way
Dreams, nightmares in disguise
I don’t think you realise
Memory, the past is truly dead
Cans of worms, can of worms
Filling you giant head
Keep, I hope you keep this all in mind
It’s not a waste of time
Runaway Runaway
Running out of things to say and places to stay
Runaway Runaway
Running out of People to sway your way
Moon bounce the sounds you hear from far away
Dig the ground until you’re old and grey
People fear, people waste their breath
Your song is sung
You just don’t know it yet
You just don’t know it
You just don’t know it

Walking the Cow
04:08

Trying to remember
But my feelings can’t know for sure
Try to reach out
But it’s gone
Lucky stars in your eyes
I’m walking the cow
I really don’t know how I came here
I really don’t know why I’m stayin’ here
Oh, oh, oh
I’m walking the cow
Tried to point my finger
But the wind keeps blowin’ me around
In circles, circles
I really don't what I have to fear
I really don't know why I have to care
Oh, oh, oh
I am walking the cow

The New

The New
My familiar sky
All tangled up in blue
Us silly city kids
Always looking for the new
The future’s at the door
Got some decisions for you
But all the scenes are a blur
The constellations kind of crude
Just says
Come with me
Come with me
See what could be
I got it all figured out
I think we’re finally
I hope we never die
Cause I don’t want to know the truth
I’ll spend the afterlife
Still looking for the new
Fields of desire and fear
Look the same from the roof
But when you look real near
There’s tiny pieces in the ruin
So come with me
Come with me
See what could be
I got it all figured out
I think we’re finally free
I dig my feet right into the sand
Until I’m swallowed entirely oh
I’m falling deep into the rabbit hole
Everything’s getting wild
There’s all these shadow beings
Talking in tongues and trying to, trying to sell me things
I’m a leaf in a field, I’m a speck, I’m the king
Feels like I never need to go back home
I stop to wonder, if this is it?
If this is my life and when I die if everything I’ve seen
Was just my time before my eyes and if it was I think it’s alright
Just means that none of us are really alone
Going through the gears, my fears and tears give me hope
I know I’m slow to show but there’s things inside that you just don’t want to know
Come on and get rough with me
We’re headed for the silent sea
And I think we’re finally going to get there
I think we’re finally going to get there
I think we’re finally going to get there
Everybody lights out.
