There’s a little man inside my mouth / Everything he says plays in a loop / He told me how to set my mind / He said everything’s going to be alright / He told me everything I ever wanted to know / What did he say? I wasn’t paying attention.
Then I found out that you were gone / So I sat down at the Devil’s table / And he told me wise, yeah he told me twice / Everything that the Devil knows / He told me everything I ever wanted to know / What did he say? I wasn’t paying attention.
Come swim with me inside a dream / Wrap me up and take me home / And lay me out, on the couch / Maybe now that’s all I’m good for / The little man inside my mouth says he’s come back to save the world / But not without you, not without you / Maybe now that’s all I’m good for / He told me everything I ever wanted to know / What did he say? I wasn’t paying attention.

Lover's Chords
03:02
|

I swore an oath I would conceal my inner calling / But these are lover’s chords / This quickened pace it knows my name, knows where I’m going / And I can feel your arms around me sleeping in my bed
Bury my heart in a river, my Gatemouth Brown / My tell-tale heart, it will explode
I heard a heartbeat in a wall, a deathwatch beetle / Singing a clicking song / Oh hopeless night with vulture eyes / And the hour of the slowest clock is the tempo of salvation / It never ends
Bury my heart. Bury my blood in a river, my Gatemouth Brown / My tell-tale heart it will explode

I Don't Want To Go
02:34

If I’m not home / If I’m not there to kiss you / just lay your precious body down / and wear your pillow like a crown / If I’m not there to hold you / If I’m not there to tell you why / asleep so soft and delicate / whisper the sweetest epithet / Remember I don’t want to go
If I can’t seem to find you / If I can’t be beside you now / just wrap your hair around the moon / and know that I’ll be coming soon / If I could be forgiven / Inside the twinkle of an eye / I’d walk your terrors to the park / Console your sad and sorry heart / Remember I don’t want to go
We will not be sleeping / Called to Heaven with a shout / The Kings and Queens are dreaming / And I can only hope to tell you why

Bring Yrself 2 Me
04:18

You are the apple of my eye / Every breath I take, I stand by my mistake / I’m just an atom bomb that wants to get to know you well / Lover please, bring yourself to me
You are a fever and disease / Oh my lover please, just bring yourself to me
I calculate the mass and volume / of every move I make, every breath I take now / The steps I take from here to there will contain all my love for you / In an instant
You are a fever and disease / Oh my lover please, just bring yourself to me
Oh I am taken / Yes, I am taken / But I can’t stop thinking of you / No I can’t stop thinking of you / Because I want you

I’m on fire / And you’re a burning angel / These little demons of my silence come to drag me back to you / This love is quick and we are circuits in a dream / bent, burnt and blown / now we finally have wings
Let me make myself clear right from the beginning / I miss the lonely feeling every time I close my eyes / I deny myself the truth about it anyway / And say I just might not be what you wanted anyway
I dream of Mona Lisa when I’m lying in my bed / You are the truth and I am a liar
These are my remains Go on and pick me over / You know I really don’t care if you just don’t get me anymore / What I ‘ve got is time / A killer keeps an open mind / I’m taking my shot, don’t care if nobody’s looking
But let me make myself clear right from the beginning / I miss the lonely feeling every time I close my eyes / I tell myself if we can rise above it, it will be okay / If I can find a way that I can live without you / It’ll be okay
I dream of Mona Lisa when I’m lying in my bed / These demons come and take me home to you instead / You are the seraphim, the echo and the fire / You are the truth and I am a liar
But let me make myself clear right from the beginning / I miss the lonely feeling every time I close my eyes / Come on and take a chance, it might be what you wanted / Take a chance, I might be what you wanted / We’re going to rock the ending

Holy Ghost Letter
05:58
|

Kingdom’s coming down, your love has asked around / I’m coming with you, we’ll sway to the sound of an empty heart / I’ll destroy you and you will destroy me too / We’re lost and loaded / Let’s all go to Hell and sit by the window
Eating bitter still I woke up chasing smoke / I want to catch and hold / but I settled in, I’m much too slow / I’m already done, oh so dear and young / How I miss you, son
In the dying light of a wasted life I won’t say goodbye / As you faded out I was not looking back over my shoulder / My last look at you won’t be over my shoulder / I’m already won, oh so dead and done / How I miss you, son
In the morning I’ll get up to go and I’ll leave this town / and I won’t look back

Wasted On You
03:02
|
|||
You’re coming around now saying sorry / Saying my name like you still want me / Well, I might be rough on the tongue / But I’ll be second to none / It doesn’t matter now even if you’re sorry / You walked away like all the lovers do / And every word I said was just wasted on you
It’s mostly in the morning when I miss you / But also at night, I can’t seem to get you out of my mind, well / I’m only saying this because it’s true / I still want to be with you / You mean the world to me and baby I’m sorry / It doesn’t matter if I stay away / I wake up every day still wasted on you
I want you now, I was wrong / I need you now, like I never did before
I heard you’re dragging chains, you say you can’t forget me / White hot and wasted was all you ever wanted to be / Well, I never had a lover quite like you / Who made me feel the way that you do / But sometimes these things just don’t work out the way you want them to
I’m only saying this because it’s true / I will always be wasted on you

I’m burning from the inside, what a delicate state I’m in / Tell me now and tell me quick, am I going to make it? / Please whisper in my ear, tell me all the things I want to hear / All my sins are blotted out now / …buried in the depths of the deepest sea
I’m falling in slow motion, the regret is sinking in I don’t know if I can take it, I don’t know if I’m strong enough / No matter how hard I try, no matter how loud I shout / All my sins are blotted out now / …all my sins are blotted out
If this is it, I want it / If this is it, whatever it is / Please whisper in my ear / I will always love you
Will you stay? / Will you stay even if I can’t come un-stung? / Will you stay when you know it’s done? / Please whisper in my ear and tell me all the things I want to hear / All my sins are blotted out now / …buried in the depths of the deepest sea

Shine
04:33
|
|||
I was turning out over the seas / I had to leave it all behind to finally find you / I was lost on my own / I couldn’t find my way home / Then you came with a smile to save me
You’re a star, wait and see / They’ll never know just what you’re meant to be / You’re a star and you shine for me / I know that you will always shine
Wave after wave, if I should start to fade / You glitter and you glow / But you don’t know just what you are / And all these words cannot explain / But you don’t have to know it’s true
When I sleep, my closest dreams are all of you / You’re beautiful and so true / You’re a star

Badr Moon
05:58
|
|||
You are a spell / so far away
When the moon goes to bed she sleeps in your eyes
I am lost / in your magic world / destiny sleeps in my veins / your destiny crawls in my veins
And when the moon goes to bed she never dies / When the moon goes to sleep she sleeps in your eyes
You will take me in your arms and never let me go / I will swallow all my fear, all my bad intentions / you will never know
Is it too late? / To beg you to destroy me and take me away / Take me apart, but take me / Take me in your arms
You might never know it / But your destiny crawls here / You can’t deny a badr moon
