Lioness 03:23
in the woods i will wait forest of love and fate firelight, shades of hate i’ll run, i’ll run, i’ll run, i’ll run i’m on a hunt i’m after like the fox i’ll run faster beacon of blood, disaster i’ll follow, i’ll follow, i’ll follow, i’ll follow feverish dreams and flesh primeval heart and chest now i’m a beast i’ll rest i’m done, i’m done, i’m done, i’m done i’m a lioness, claw instincts i’m animal light on fire send below heartbreaker, prey and foe i’m done i’m done

voices sing in rounds in tight harmony i wrote a song the notes will stick to you like mud it’s a melody imprint a piece of truth one i wrote to help me teach myself to you float the flood through the haze and fog of my touch, my bond it will stick to you like mud there are times i hate myself i fucked this up there are times i say too much, too quick to love in a mirror i decide to recognize i’m a stranger in a skin-suit paralyzed float the flood through the haze and fog of my touch, my bond it will stick to you like mud feelings leave my locked to captured, fucked up and angry punishing you nothing further than arms length reach through like a poisonous snake squeezing you float the flood through the haze and fog of my touch, my bond it will stick to you like mud float the flood through the haze and fog of my touch, my bond it will stick to you like mud it will stick to you like mud it will stick to you like mud

maybe i’m a fool, to love and to lose. maybe this is real, or a dream i can feel. and i’m caught on the lure of, the movement, the pull of the tide and oceans turn i will wait, I will wait like the morning that’s waiting on the dew like the sunrise that’s waiting on the noon don’t mistake me i’m not waiting on you i’m waiting on, waiting on, waiting on me a shift an undertow to reject what is known I’m living in a thought who i am, who I'm not a confusion of heartbeats reflection of two me’s a picture of a face she will wait, she will wait like the morning that’s waiting on the dew like the sunrise that’s waiting on the noon don’t mistake me i’m not waiting on you i’m waiting on, waiting on, waiting on me on me i never thought i’d lie or be seen as unkind. something i create, a burden i, i can trace to a primitive instinct the attraction of need. rooted deep inside, grown from good grown from good like the morning that’s waiting on the dew like the sunrise that’s waiting on the noon don’t mistake me i’m not waiting on you i’m waiting on, waiting on, waiting on me on me

Tarot Cards 02:56
you’re never far i know you’re always in my mind we’ll find our way to water reflecting moonlight i’m laying tarot cards to read our fortune the eight of swords, the chariot the hanged man, lovers, moon our shadows form like birds and beasts projected on that hedge of trees like puppets that we made in dreams a fire, a blanket, a bed but I don't want to leave this despite the hurt and shame a heartbreak is always worse when i’m forgiven for causing pain i’m laying tarot cards to read our fortune the ace of wands, the fountain the tower, devil, sun our shadows form like birds and beasts projected on that hedge of trees like puppets that we made in dreams a fire, a blanket, a bed our shadows form like birds and beasts cut grass and dew stick to our feet like fantasies of skin and sweet imagined memories

close your eyes hold my hand, i’ll close mine false and bright death is a lonely light thoughts of skin the substance of sorrow in cheek and chin wait for me where we’ve been from sunrise to shadow grey from sunrise to shadow grey birds of prey nest in the cedar sprays wind betray that sunrise to shadow grey when i wake salt water, ocean waves foam and break you’re the hunter and i’m the prey from sunrise to shadow grey from sunrise to shadow grey awake in fright be my searchlight we could hunt by night two birds in flight awake in fright be my searchlight we could hunt by night two birds in flight two birds in flight two birds in flight from sunrise to shadow grey from sunrise to shadow grey from sunrise to shadow grey

Play games Making up friends to feel Lonely and lost in my mind Feel Bad Am I the only one Brain dead and wasting my time? Brain dead, brain dead, brain dead, brain dead Blonde girl born to control she thought To keep pace A depressed family Feel thin Chemical additives Breath in, smoke and move on Breath in, breath in, breath in, breath in Bold move Love in a mirror ball Old friends are wasting away Headaches, panic and drowsiness Kick in those vanity pains Kick in, kick in, kick in, kick in An illusion of control made of sparks and wires In a brain that’s full of holes and some homemade liars Swallow gel and chemicals Jolt the amplifier Jolt the amplifier In a brain that’s full of holes Jolt the amplifier and some homemade liars Jolt the amplifier Swallow gel and chemicals Jolt the amplifier Jolt the amplifier

10,000 Feet 03:25
on this lonely road power lines in rows hard rime lies heavy on the boughs of trees prairie sunrise on twisted trees that shone in a long past life we’re building fire i’m looking down from 10,000 feet labyrinthine lights and mazes of streets even high up I can feel your heart beat holding on, holding on, holding on past that great blue lake frozen bleak landscapes a lone pine sways in the breeze I think of you in a coastal town on a beach we found our lives and not our age between us now i’m looking down from 10,000 feet labyrinthine lights and mazes of streets even high up I can feel your heart beat holding on, holding on, holding on wonder on that flashing point that satellite spectre of a star a planet lost in sight i will memorize your face and start a fire hung up on my confusion and broken wires i’m looking down from 10,000 feet labyrinthine lights and mazes of streets even high up I can feel your heart beat holding on, holding on, holding on

I am a spark a circuit a wire in the back of your mind your brain synapses fire you are the moon a reflection that plays a shimmering light an inscrutable shade I foresee future scenes where music halts my hearts disease I feel like a tree blown bent by the wind grown on a coast in a handful of sand and through it all i feel like i’ll choke on these statements of love born of anger and smoke I foresee future scenes where music halts my hearts disease the kinship of souls and minds relics of long past lives i’m not brave, but I’ll try to read the signs and get this right I foresee future scenes where music halts my hearts disease

Winter Wind 04:19
I walked out on the ice the sound of the melt, the northern lights do the fish fall asleep down deep and caught? in the shelter from the winter, winter wind My shadow cast in blue i trace myself standing next to you i’ll wait for the snow to bury you in the force behind the winter, the winter wind the winter wind the winter wind the winter wind the winter wind The thump and crack of ice the force of some hidden current life pull the sun from the cut and see that light take shelter from the winter, winter wind I went to find my wound in the hundreds of faces that i knew my little beside her secret stone she’s sheltered from the winter, the winter wind the winter wind the winter wind the winter wind the winter wind

Wolf Cubs 04:05
Fade, fade from the way it hurts, it hurts you know, you know in heart of hearts it’s worse it’s worse to hold a thought your brain performs she lies, she lies for fear of harm, fear she lies I carried it  to make a home a way of life, i learned it from my mother, caught up in an instinct learned from  quiet wishes of romantic love but now i see, i’m the maker of me you’re whole, i’m whole we’re following tracks through forests made by wolves her cubs are howling  howling howling a blue print for interpreting emotions of  a partner, brother, father  mother take it off off, unburden for a moment fears of loneliness and guilt  so you can see  i’m the maker of me you’re whole, i’m whole we’re following tracks through forests made by wolves her cubs are howling  howling howling
