Nobody will ever know

Room with a darkened stair,
Student apartments there
I know,
I do,
Don't go with you.
I'll sink into company
You scratch at the tapestry
I'll grow immune to blows from you
Now you know what you want
And is it ok to go it alone?
He'll be scared - darling one
My own folly doesn't show
So nobody knows
Chew at my shaking hand
New to the chase again
I go,
I do,
Too slow for you.
Sharpen my notes and eyes
Too late for a quiet night
I know,
Like you,
How cold we grew.
Now you know what you want
And is it ok to go it alone?
He'll be scared - darling one
My own folly doesn't show
So nobody knows
Nobody wins
Go it alone
Let nobody in
Now you know what you want
And is it ok to go it alone?
He'll be scared - darling one
My own folly doesn't show
So nobody knows

Bound to lose

In my custody
Pictures of our past
Though you trusted me
To give them back
In the strangest way
I felt your spirit strike
With all its history
Like a kitchen knife
I felt the depth of it
Remove my gratitude
Expiring in my grip
It cries for you
I washed the dust from it
And found contentment in
The sterile thoroughness
Of vocation
I'm living with the Holy Ghost
Even he doesn't believe its me
Coughing out a heart of gold
Every time we try to speak
On the bed you left
Scenes of our lives
Lying next to me
Every night
On the bed you left
Now I'm on your side
And how curious
To know what that's like
I'm lying with my former self
Saying what I usually do
Man, he really looks like hell
I think he's losing to his wounds
I'm living in another time
And doing what I used to do
Acting like a fucking child
Hiding in the laundry room
There's a raven on my windowsill
Probably going to make his move
Consider me an easy kill
Crying in the afternoon
So let me pay for my mistakes
Whatever you think is due
It was a fate that we had to break
And a round we were bound to lose

Distant scenes are knocking on my wall
Just to see that I don't get to sleep at all
Lips to brick
And humming soft:
"You're not in love,
not enough,
not enough"
Keep that chain away from anyone
It may detain some,
But latches only once
I've been lost before
I feel it isn't known enough
Love is a staggering feeling,
coming down on us
I'm in the thrid part now
Another cover cut
I fail to see the compound panning out
or adding up
Peace in pain
and trust in love
They say it comes,
It never does
It never does
Keep that chain away from anyone
Then when the pain comes
It cuts you only once
I've been caught before
I feel it isn't known enough
Love is a harrowing feeling
Put it down at once
Distant scenes keep knocking on my wall
Just to see that I make peace with all thats done
(Or never was)
And may they shake my shackles off
It wasn't love that put them on
With sombre locks
One day you'll awake at the break of dawn
There next to no-one
And glad to see them gone
Lying lost in silent ceilings
More than long enough
Now there's a shadow of healing
Coming down like dust
I've been caught before
I feel it isn't known enough
Love is a staggering feeling
Coming down to lust
And luck
And really nothing much

Old clothes

I get so easily undone by what you said
Are you hiding in my bedroom girl?
Take some back I'm giving
All my other old ways
"Fine" is a distant word
It takes faith and patience to wait
Somehow we ended up all the way out here all the same
These nights, how they hunt me
Shining up your figure fair
Lets unpack your linen,
All the other old wares
We'll try on a different pair
Loose change lying in wait
Rough count - just have enough for the train out there today
For the game
Then she'd see that I came
It takes faith and patience to wait
Somehow we ended up all the way out here,
But dear, I guess I can wait.

You used to say
02:55
|

Hold tight my hand
Like the warmer rain
Lift day of the night
Sweetheart, how we used to fight
Don't lets forget
Can you still taste it?
You lost in yourself
All that I felt
"I am willing to fall for you" you'd say
Now you want me to before we throw it away
Hate takes its name
And there's love in pain
Tied down there inside
"Still breathing" you used to say
"I am willing to fall for you" you'd say
Now you want me to before we throw it away

Hard aches
05:34

Losing sleep for all the light
Fan the flame, or blow it out
Now I've come to set it right
And take the heart out of my mouth
The heart aches in tune
And does it show the window you go through?
I'm all faith even now, but who knows
Maybe I'll come through it too
By the bed
And in the car
We were moving all the time
Now its come to
Braking hard
Another route we'll never find
The heart races through to some goal
Your figure looms in our old room
I'm ok with it now, but who knows
Maybe you can see it too
Conversation and consequence
Better lines were never read
Now they come through distant
Like a bell from some wedding in my head
One heart fades in two, another grows
Now I hear that hold true
I can't wait, even now, until it goes
That doesn't mean its going to
Losing sleep for all the light
Waste the day and wait it out
Now I've come to set it right
And take the heart out of my mouth
