Come To Me
04:04
|
|||
I was born down by the sea
Rising up for a place to be
I was raised by the southern sun
Reaping out of the depth I'd dug
Come to me
Oh come to me
When your eyes are wide and you can see
Come to me
Oh come to me
Let me wither you down in the sweetest way I could possible
Howling winds and pouring rains
I am withered like old wooden frames
Hungry eyes and sultry skin
Lead me in as it begins
Come to me
Oh come to me
When your eyes are wide and you can see
Come to me
Oh come to me
Let me wither you down in the sweetest way I could possible
Its the touch of the night
in the faint moonlight
within the abyss that I reside
Would you hear me now
as I start to howl
to let me out
Come to me
Oh come to me
When your eyes are wide and you can see
Come to me
Oh come to me
Let me wither you down in the sweetest way I could possible

Choosing Lightly
02:02
|
|||
I walked along the river canals
Tryna find myself so I could tell
Oh whats a quiet girl like me to do
Is it a sign or is my mind in two
I could've loved you
I could've loved you
Would you get on a plane today
Race your brains and say well hunny I'm comin anyway
What you decide is how I go or I stay
I keep walking in my own dazed state
I could've loved you
I could've loved you
So decide for me and you

Nicalochan
04:49
|
|||
Nicalochan I saw you in a dream last night
Nicalochan you were dancing with those eyes
You used to visit almost every night
Sometimes I see you even in the daylight
Oooh ooh ooh
Ooh ooh ooh
Late one time I put my hand apon the wall
I could feel your shadow pressed up on my palm
I raced to look for you did you hear me call?
Nicalochan I feel strange saying your name at all
Oooh ooh ooh
Where ya been?
Ooh ooh ooh
Where ya been?
I've been dreaming about you ever since
And i'll be dreaming till I know where ya been
Nicalochan where ya been
I feel strange ever since
Nicalochan where ya been
I feel strange ever since
Where ya been
I'll be dreaming till I know
Where ya been

Lazer Lights
04:38
|
|||
Would you know our vow
When you saw in the crowd
Could you be tripped
By the sight of it
Oh like lazer light washing my eyes
I am waiting
On the edge for you
Well slowly there's gravity
Pulling in and out of you and me
Do I understand
I don't think I do
Such a wild notion to be true
I am waiting
On the edge for you
Oh like a lazer light washing my eyes
Oh like a lazer light washing my eyes
Silently hit, silently hit
Silently hit, silently hit
Silently hit, I don't desire it

Rather Comely
04:02
|
|||
In between the road and the stream
Cotton flowers drift past me
Angelic delight in any man's sight
Rather comely you'll think out loud
So captivated bewitched in stages
Can you see
Oh ground shaking, alternating between
In between the road and the stream
A little voice follows softly
Even when you can't hear
It's always there
Becoming enslaved in
the divine and the tainted
So captivated, bewitched in stages
Can you see
Oh ground shaking, alternating between
Rather comely you'll say to me
When the ground is shaking alternating between

Bittersweet Absolute
02:59
|
|||
Oh Iseult of the fair can't you tell that he won't be there
Don't hold the promise he made
For he's already sailed away
He's already far away
Though he says he'll return
He has nothing bound to you but his word
Oh the bittersweet for lovers
In the dance of the absolute
Oh the bittersweet for lovers
The bittersweet
Oh Iseult of the white hands he'll never look at you
The way he does with her
He'll be convinced to stay a lil while but that's enough
It's only for a while
You can have his body but you may never know his mind
Oh the bittersweet
The bittersweet
Oh the bittersweet
Like kryptonite, a lady weeps for him

Rest Your Gaze
04:23
|
|||
Rest your gaze
My darling my craze
Looking through me will hurt this space
Spend a minute upon my page
Longer than this and I will replaced
By the other side within my descent
Loving you into an abyss
The first time I can catch my breath and so I hesitate
As you think to yourself
As I think to myself where it all
truly did begin
Where it begun
My love my sun
Where are your rays
Where are those days
A simple step to a foreign place
Still, I'm dreaming of your embrace
To find not only my heart
But yours
To speak to the flowers of forgiveness
Reach for the hands of remembrance
As you think to yourself
As I think to myself
Where it all
truly did begin
The first time I can catch my breathe
And so I hesitate

Rumble and Crawl
03:28
|
|||
I am I do exist
It doesn't mean I don't think of it
I speak I breathe I perceive
Oh the way that I feel
Hello the word I know the best
Goodbye hasn't found it's place yet
Would you blame
Would you blame me
Would you blame
Would you blame me
In the air like transcendent leaves
I am still but I can't see
I rumble and crawl just like the man
Who stumbles among old broken glass
Oh it whispers through my hair
A distant burden that I bear
Sun and sea swallow me
Washing off old memories
Would you blame
Would you blame me
Would you be hypnotized by the way that I move my mouth
Or would you blame
Would you blame me

Petrichor
02:04
|
|||
Petrichor I miss your presence in the city
Nothing like bare earth showing off its bursts
Wildwoods to the pastures
Ruffled amongst the steam
Trip me oh take me into the dark
Trip me oh take me when I'm lost
Gasp the air in the centre of the coven
Deep deeper into my horizon
Though I feel blind
Light strikes me down
Trip me oh take me into the dark
Trip me oh take me when I'm lost
There it is
There it is again
There it is, there it is
The smell of the earth after rain
The smell of the earth after rain

Christmas
02:06
|
|||
Tips of toes
Cries and woes
All the holiday moans
Snowfall, summers dawn
Sleighbells on your door
Ooh whats with you
Singles night
Full moonlight
A glass of wine
Right and white
All things nice
Oh a silent fight
Ooh whats with you
What's with you

Coming Home
03:45
|
|||
Sometimes we learn to love
Touch that haunts your soul
Sometimes a wandering heart just hurts like hell
I do believe
I do believe I'm coming home
Love that resonates your bones
If it illuminates your lingering darkness you'll know
I do believe
I do believe I'm coming home
All I know is there is a change
Oh is it time to turn the page
Well sometimes a wandering heart just hurts like hell
I do believe,
I do believe I'm coming home
