Salt
02:58

it smells like sweet shame on the breath of scandal
i try to explain, but it’s too much of a mouthful
an ocean of salt and all we have is a thimble
a hurricane wind under the wing of a seagull
i, i think i find myself in here
i think i see it oh-so-clear
oh-so-clear
a broken bone, balanced nicely
in a concrete home where i sleep fortnightly
traveller, scavenger, you heard that i have the password
hold you in my palm you tiny baby bluebird
i, i think i find myself in here
i think i see it oh-so-clear
oh-so-clear
i taste emotional air
rearing for a fight
the kind that woke you up in the middle of the night
i wanna help you out, but i’m pretty helpless myself
i, i think i find myself in here
i think i see it oh-so-clear
oh-so-clear

Winter Love
02:52

white linen, another love story
dark skies, dark eyes staring
where is your heat in winter?
where is your light in the dark?
if i had it my way i would be there right now
if i had it my way i would be there right now
winter is a sparrow on a grey scot’s pine bough
if i had it my way i would be there right now
весенние цветы прорастут в холодной земле
(spring flowers will grow through the cold ground)
winter is a sparrow on a grey scot’s pine bough
snow on your lips and ice on your brow
if i had it my way i would be there right now
snow on your lips and ice on your brow
if i had it my way i would be there right now, right now
with my left hand extended and glowing
i stand up, my backbone is growing
100 feet tall
look down, head-first free-fall
like fire and aerosol, a diamond cannonball
like nothing at all
look down, head-first free-fall
like fire and aerosol, a diamond cannonball
if i had it my way i would be there right now
я смогу отыскать тебя в ледяном лесу
(I will be able to find you in the ice cold forest)
if i had it my way i would be there right now
я услышу тебя сквозь ледяные стены
(I will hear you through the ice walls)
winter is a sparrow on a grey scot’s pine bough
if i had it my way i would be there right now, right now

Horses
04:03
|

in the house of the full, shining moon
instability, a poster-child for the day
a cold one for the Hemingways
do you hear, do you wanna hear the truth?
do you know, do you wanna know the love (the love)?
can you feel, can you help me feel the other side of this?
do you wanna know, do you wanna know?
horses may run, but i will stay
if they had wings would they fly away?
or stay here all the live-long day?
my legs can barely even stand
such a heavy weight, just a grain of sand
on this heavy heart and i’ll fall apart (i’ll fall apart)
in the night, by starlight
they whet all their knives
flexibility you are a wind in the trees
solidarity at the bottom of the sea
can you hear? can you hear them sing this too?
can you think, can you think of all the things that can’t be true?
can you help me out?
can you figure out the shifting way of things?
can you help me know? (can you help me know?)
horses may run, but i will stay
call me ferdinand, give me my bouquet
stay here all the live-long day

Misdemeanor
02:31
|
|||
a diamond, oceanside
real life, deeper sigh
ambergris, ambergris
don’t you feel the bravery
human being, extra feelings
nothing like chemistry
fingernail on the mirror
spelling, “don’t you get no nearer”
though i dreamt ring-bearer
mystery like a cleaver
face like a misdemeanor
mangroves in the warm salt seas
moonlight gives a teaser
everyone sleepwalks realer
when they have a dream to dream
rattlesnake skin, shed by water
on the white chalk, near her daughter’s
rattlesnake skin, feet are shifting
water touch skin, water on skin
