The virus spread among the masses fast
A deadened world for the chosen last
Comin’ around again
Comin’ around again
We’re holding on to what we used to know
We’re learning faster, then we’re moving slow
Comin’ around again
Comin’ around again
I held my righteous tongue
Gripped tightly to my gun
I looked you in the eye
I like to think I tried
Amy got lost when she went home one last time
Looking through shoeboxes for bags of dime
Comin’ around again
Comin’ around again
Now she’s stuck in a loop of trying on
Dresses left behind from when she was young
Comin’ around again
Comin’ around again
I held my righteous tongue
Gripped tightly to my gun
I looked you in the eye
I like to think I tried
I held it to your head
Repetition is your end
I looked you in the eye
I like to think I tried
I like to think I tried
I like to think I tried
I looked you in the eye
I like to think I tried

I'm Not Free
02:25

You were no future, you were no present
You were gone before you got here
I was your creature, I was your peasant
Now I’ve forgotten what you look like, dear
Don’t save a dance for me
I’m not free
You don’t go forward, you don’t go back
Now I’m stuck here in the middle
I don’t remember singing, I don’t remember dreams
And I’ve forgotten what we’re talking about here
Don’t save a dance for me
I’m not free
Boo went the ghost, and out went the light
You were no future, you were no present
You were gone
Don’t save a dance for me, I’m not free
Don’t save a dance for me, I’m not free
I’m not free
I’m not free

All I See Is Magic
03:31
|
|||
|
I’m looking high from the branches
And I’m getting down on my knees
I can’t explain what has happened
And I don’t care what you see
All I see is magic
All I see is magic
I’m swimming the lake of heartache
And I’m learning to let my body sink
But even in water so tragic
Even in darkness so deep
All I see is magic
All I see is magic
It was always out of our control
So why don’t we let it go?
Calculations make me laugh
All I see is magic in the math
I hear your feet as they’re walking
A sound that’s so pretty to me
They talk just to hear themselves talking
They sing just to hear themselves sing
All I see is magic
All I see is magic

Skyscraper

How very strong you must be made, standing so big and tall
You are the skyscraper on my grave, so very tall
How very red your roses are, never a stem so long
You are the garden drinking my water all summer
How very sharp your corners turn, angles of perfect faith
You measure twice, then cut me out, nothing to waste
How very red your roses are, never a stem so long
You are the garden drinking my water all summer
You are the garden drinking my water all summer

My Diary
03:03
|

|
My diary came alive today
My diary sat up and stretched
My diary came alive today
Jumped right off the table
My diary scratched her back and then
Pulled a page out of its self
My diary came alive today
And went to a yoga class
She learned to meditate
But it didn’t take
She can sit up straight
And bloviate
My diary works at the library
Distributing reading materials
Guess she had that feeling when everything’s burning
The only thing she could do
Was rip each page out, one at a time
And show them to everyone she knew
What is the inside of you?
What is the inside of you?
We don’t care that it comes from someone else’s point of view?
What is the inside of you?
My diary went to a park today
Laid out on the grass
Unpacked it all on a blanket she brought
Made a picnic out of other people’s thoughts
But she ate way too much, oh, she ate way too much
Now my diary has diarrhea
What is the inside of you?
What is the inside of you?
What is the inside of you?

Planes Fly Low
04:36
|
|||
|
I went away for seven days
I was just clearing my head, getting space
I turned off the phone, shut it all out
Get back to the city, and there’s been a drought
The water’s not clean, you can’t put it in your mouth
The babies are clinging, crying out loud
“Mama don’t go, don’t leave us alone”
The planes flying low, low, low
You try to make time stand still
Try to make time stand still
Try to make time time
I walk down the middle line, past the chokecherries
Those things always made me wince, but it’s fruit for free
Freedom is bitter, but what do I know,
I’m just walking down a road that my daddy owns
The water’s so clean from that ol’ glacier freeze
The babies are growing like the bitter fruit trees
Mama don’t go, don’t leave us alone
The planes flying low low
You try to make time stand still
Try to make time stand still
Try to make time stand still
Try to make time time

See Stars
03:00
|

|
I’m deflowered, I’m a charge
I’ve recoiled, I’ve seen stars
I have met myself in bars
I’ve gone into strangers’ cars
I’m an abstract lady
I guess I’m alive
I’m a nuclear baby
I think I’m radiating
A bad romance, love on the floor
It’s been a dance, it’s been a war
I’m an abstract lady
I guess I’m alive
I’m a nuclear baby
I think I’m radiating
I recover, close the door
Open others, even scores
It’s been easy, it’s been hard
Sing so violent I see stars
I drink blood, and I love hard
Sing so violent I see stars
I’m an abstract lady
I guess I’m alive
I’m a nuclear baby
I think I’m radiating

Ocean
04:07
|

|
There is an ocean in front of you
It appeared when you left everything that you knew
Swallowing evening
Dark without meaning
All you see is the moonlight floating
It’s drowning, baby, it’s sinking slowly
Just sitting tight til the light starts glowing
Your heart’s wide open
There is an ocean in front of me
The shore is my only friend and enemy
Reach the end and see
Forever and nothing
All you see is the moonlight floating
It’s drowning, baby, it’s sinking slowly
Just sitting tight til the light starts showing
My heart’s wide open

Believer
03:48
|

|
I’m selling down, I’m getting out
You were one I coulda lived without
And I gave my love to you
I gave my love to you
And now, the long goodbye
Guess I learned how fast time flies
I gave my love to you
I gave my love to you
Like I could split it into
A hundred big hearts
That grow little arms
To hold your sick head and your stories tight
Pink hearts with cherry red googly eyes
Like I could split it into
A hundred big hearts
That grow little arms
To hold your sick head and your stories tight
Pink hearts with cherry red googly eyes
One for you
One for me
Let’s throw one in there for world peace
Let’s throw one in there
‘Cause I believe
