- A Lawn To Mow
Grew up in the smoggiest of towns
A dirty haze where the sun goes down
But we know it's better to conceal
Than to reveal
In the time it takes the grass to grow
There are weeds to pull and a lawn to mow
The city looks so nice
- Black is the Color of My True Love's Hair
Черный это - цвет волос моей истинной любви.
His face so soft and wondrous fair...
Его лицо такое нежное и удивительно прекрасное...
The purest eyes
Самые ясные глаза
And the strongest hands.
И самые сильные руки.
I love the ground on where he stands,
- Civilian
I am nothing without pretend
I know my faults
Can't live with them
I am nothing without a man
I know my thoughts
But I can't hide them
I still keep my baby teeth
- Civilian - Acoustic Version
I am nothing without pretend
I know my faults
Can't live with them
I am nothing without a man
I know my thoughts
But I can't hide them
I still keep my baby teeth
- Dogs Eyes
Can see yourself in evolution;
The history of our creation.
So dog's eyes, smiling,
Scare you and I'm dying.
I can't shake this superstition.
Jesus, give me your permission.
And God's eye looks in
- Family Glue
am family glue
leaving a legacy of tell-me-to
behaviour made of lead
i eat and i'm fed
never use your hands
our blood has given into it
save the holidays for me
- For Prayer
All this dirt is my disease*
Please, Please
Wanted hands but I got knees
You drop by to help me out
Out, Out
Baby, what's all this about?
- I Don't Feel Young
I don't feel young
I don't feel scared
I'm in control
I am prepared
i'll never cry
i'll sit and stare
i don't feel young
- Keeping Company
Are you deserving
Sweet simple being?
I look for learning
You are the teaching
I was a body
Captured and proud
When you were thirteen
It wasn't allowed
- Mary Is Mary
We left a 'maybe' for the cold heart
And they found a body in my backyard
I leave for the country just like you did
But he's not in the country, just look how you live
And all high and mighty, what do you know?
And there is no greater to despair on
And Mary is Mary and I'm not
- My Creator
What kind of man, what could I be?
Afraid of everyone I meet
Lie forever, afterthought
Some are men
And some are not
And love [?]
- Orchard Fair
When all the leaves
Are turning brown
I know I'll see
Them hit the ground
And apricots
The apple trees
The peaches fruit
- Plains
Into the desert, weathered forever
Desperate clouds follow them out
Seeing the future, cautiously answer
Slowly the plains sideways rain
The days whispered and shouted and everything counted
The signs were around, we looked, so we found
Been seeking a pattern, none of it mattered
Watching the sky sparkling by
- Prodigy
They tell me
I'm a prodigy
Cuz I've been hating you since I was two
I've been hating you since I was two
It's an art
Such a head-- head-start
Cuz everything you told me it was true
- Regret
the floor will all cave in at ten o'clock
my tired body to absorb the shock
years of decay will make a mess of me
these rotted floor boards arch below my feet
the flood will take us when we're in our sleep
this city swallowed by the oceans deep
the ice will melt and then the seas will swell
- Siamese
I know my place
It's a place I've never been though
Flat like rain
In a picture of a window
It's OK
It's alright
I walk on late at night
- Sight, Flight
So I lick your head on this bed
And discover it's my dinner
Still I'm sure if it's just the before
That you're after then why take my picture
And if we fly it's in the public eye
So make sure everyone knows you're the winner
In righting
- Spiral
Thoughts becoming her …
Mean on, let it
When our lips come together
I come over
Wake up notices you made it
Beauty, baby
When our lips come together
- Take It In
Half the day away, half again asleep
I am left alone with dreams.
I wouldn't carry if I ...
I wouldn't carry you [?]
Is it still a lie if it's true?
Do you never ask because I'll never tell?
- Talking About Money
Right side headache
Maybe I'm dying
Oh but a child then
You told me anything
Now you've got me
Dreaming a tragedy
When I'm holding his hand
- Tattoo
Sing out at me
See right through me
Send those dangerous things to me
All together
I am melting
I see stars that never come down
- That I Do
I wish you didn't need it anymore
I understand exactly what you use it for
And better isn't always doing well
I know because I'm better now myself
And it's true, I need it too
But not the way that you do
- The Small Deaths
Two small deaths happened today,
While i was at work,
While i was at play.
A vast light darkens my door,
So i cann't cry
Now what is that for?
- We Were Wealth
Though I am grown,
I am living like a child now.
I wish, I want:
Giving myself everything
Fearing the release,
Keeping the peace
Say, for instance,
