Sunday morning
Restless morning I have floated forever In the shadow Sleepless shadow I have fallen far below Out of focus Sickly focus Breathless inbetween hours Creeping morning Rash and warning All was emptied long ago home Safe & sound ... White snow is falling down Falls down hits the ground White snow is falling down Falls down hits the ground Tinned and swollen Poached and frozen I have made it the last time Just a token Rough and broken I was fallen long ago White snow is falling down Falls down hits the ground White snow is falling down Falls down hits the ground White snow is falling down Falls down hits the ground Safe & sound ... White snow is falling down Falls down hits the ground... Safe & sound ... |

They're moving out boxes
Piled in the hall Birthday gifts and houses Redirect them all I need you like water I love you like air But I am the girl in ill-fitting underwear Walk into nighttime No more than a name Baggage and raindrops Feeding the flames Like footprints in fresh snow I'm easy to see Seemingly hoping For moss to grow on me Watching and willing at you Intoxicating Injury as something to do All reciprocating Still in the same skin All the old clothes Nothing changing Nothing to know A point in the distance A drop of a man Bet double or nothing And never understand Watching and willing at you Intoxicating Injury as something to do All reciprocating |

Silence please now
I don't want a word Got deep in trouble And my hands got burnt Ain't nobody love me That's how I got here With pockets full of nothing And a head full of fear You broke a heart a many a time But you'll never break this heart of mine You broke a heart a many a time But you'll never break this heart of mine I'm a fish outta water A soup in a basket Gotta get to where I'm going But don't know how to ask it Believed in a young man That's where I went wrong And now I'm in the gutter And I ain't got long He was a callous boy That much I could see But the heart's a crazy fool When it wants to believe It loses all directions Forgets how to drive That honey saw me coming And skinned me alive You broke a heart a many a time But you'll never break this heart of mine You broke a heart a many a time But you'll never break this heart of mine You broke a heart a many a time But you'll never break this heart of mine You broke a heart a many a time But you'll never break this heart of mine |

Anybody's better than nobody
'Cause one's never better than two Anybody's better than nobody For me and my barefoot blues I'm spending money like water And drinking life like wine But it's a big old bed in a lonesome house Unhappiness all I find Once I danced in the sunshine I used to laugh at the rain Did the belly-rub with all kinds of men Lord I'd love to do it again But in this sea of scorn & laughter I look for the silvery moon But there's no one but me and my lonely key A bare bulb rented room I'm going down to the river Gonna have me a little swim An autumn flower in the frozen rain Can't believe the state I'm in 'Cause a body was better than nobody And one seemed worse than two When that anybody turned to nobody And left me to my barefoot blues |

Come fly with me
Leaf by leaf a bumblebee If I weren't me who would I be Leaf by leaf rocks and trees All is all is everything Leaf by leaf wedged inbetween A desert rose an ocean breeze Leaf by leaf just let me be Sailing through the milky way Leaf by leaf cares fall away Shining bright all silver-grey Leaf by leaf night and day Gliding by on water wings Leaf by leaf the starling sing Holding on by fragile string Leaf by leaf... |

Damn you dirty bird
Put out the fire now It's all said and done Do I walk away or run What went wrong, what went wrong Shame on, shame on Damn you filthy whore Rain from the heavens now Take the flowers and trees Pluck these eyes from me What went wrong, what went wrong Shame on, shame on Damn you wicked thing You walk on shoes of snow I'll live to pick your bones Then wait for leaves to grow What went wrong, what went wrong Shame on, shame on Shame on, shame on Shame on, shame on |

Let me out
I'm a cloud I can't live here anymore Turn the sky inside out I can't live here anymore Fish for nails in a drought I can't live here anymore Always ash in my mouth I can't live here anymore I can't live here anymore I can't live here anymore I can't live here anymore I can't live here anymore I can't live here anymore I can't live here anymore I can't live here anymore I can't live here anymore |

We talked like giddy schoolgirls
It seemed we turned a corner I remember smiling It was a piecemeal resolution With only best intentions And i'm going frustrations Words designed to pacify It helps the sun is shining And on and on and on and on and oh And on and on and on and on and oh And on and on and on and on and oh And on and on and on and on and oh You're feeling so much better And how you're looking well With only best intentions Imperfect recollections With eyes as big as headlights I remember smiling Words designed to justify It helps the sun is shining And on and on and on and on and oh And on and on and on and on and oh And on and on and on and on and oh And on and on and on and on and oh We'll talk and we will whisper But touch me and you'll burn Girls as sweet as sweet can be I remember smiling With only best intentions And on going frustrations Words designed to crucify It helps the sun is shining And on and on and on and on and oh And on and on and on and on and oh And on and on and on and on and oh And on and on and on and on and oh |

Wind blown
A lazy sway Creeping like fire From a slow spark Birds without wings Out of the dust of dreams Head out to sea Seeking the stars Nothing can wake Nothing will break His host Of teasing fancies With aches and fears Sighs and tears We roll like water Caught in a stream A pilot on the wing A weary thing Feeding my soul And reading my mind We can be hurt A piece at a time As the curtains of night Draw back with the light |
