After Dark 03:23
lyrics
buy track
Sometime after dark there was a movie Sometime after dark the spirit moved me Sometime after dark there was a movie We both watched Sometime after dark the spirit moved me From afar When they wake up They’ll be a little bit better and worse When they wake up They’ll be a little more different A little more cursed But we have the answer inside our experience Sometime after dark there was a movie We both watched Sometime after dark the spirit moved me From afar Sometime after dark There was a shooting star We didn’t witness it But we knew who we are I’m alone in the dark with the spark of a light that Never goes out, that never goes out

Apparitions 03:05
lyrics

In waking life there are so many strings I much prefer the apparitions in between In between You’re far away We communicate You don’t have a form I don’t have a place You give me a reason For every moment So crystal clear I have to own it Vanishing Crystalline Symmetry of Dead end dreams Dead end dreams Oooo only I know what it means Your tides run deep Rolling rivers through evergreens You’re most safe when you’re alone If you stay anywhere too long they’ll think you’ve stolen from them Don’t call me on the phone You have what you need to play your role Now give up the ghost Give it up Give up the ghost Vanishing Crystalline Symmetry of Dead end dreams Dead end dreams Oooo only I know what it means Your tides run deep Rolling rivers through evergreens In Waking life there are so many strings I much prefer the apparitions in between In between You’re far away We communicate You don’t have a form I don’t have a place You give me a reason For every moment So crystal clear I have to own it Vanishing Crystalline Symmetry of Dead end dreams

I’ll miss you But I won’t be missing you I’ll see you But I might never see you again I miss you already I miss you right now It’s been heaven But heavens are also hells Are also wells And it’s hard to tell for me When which was which for you And it’s sorry And I’m sorry And I’m sorry

Under the Wave 03:58
lyrics

I’ve had many names I’ve had many forms L’appel du vide Weeping open sore Metamorphosis Glitter on your cheek pushes your bones out Hair sticks on your shoulders makes you proud I like the way you shimmer in the dark I like the way you simmer in my heart I like the way you shimmer in the dark I like the way you simmer in my heart No matter where you are You’re my star, you’re my scar You’re my star, you’re my scar You can’t lie to me You can’t hide a thing I’ve survived centuries No past lives, memories Are you with me now I’m with you now The currents will carry you somewhere warm You will wash ashore after the storm Couldn’t this be forever more You ask You’ve left it all behind before And it never lasts Something floats out of your mouth A little fish swims back into the sea Glitter on your cheek pushes your bones out Hair sticks on your shoulders makes you proud I like the way you shimmer in the dark I like the way you simmer in my heart I like the way you shimmer in the dark I like the way you simmer in my heart No matter where you are You’re my star You’re my scar You’re my star You’re my scar You can’t lie to me You can’t hide a thing I’ve survived centuries No past lives, memories

Wear the Cloak Retrieve the Sword 02:22

Moving in silence, moving inside this I’m crawling out, I’m calling out Moving in silence, moving inside this I can fold my mouth, I can slow it down I don’t have guys, I have guides Protected, surrounded on all sides But I’m still, I’m still gonna die sometime Because everything born must die

Ah I’ve said it all already, I just haven’t said it yet I’ve said it all already, I just haven’t said it yet Distortions at the edge of the lens That’s where we make friends Distortions at the edge of the lens That’s where we make friends I’ve said it all already, I just haven’t said it yet Hey hey hey I’ve had it in my head this whole time, this whole time I’ve said it all already, I just haven’t said it yet Hey hey hey I’ve had it in my head this whole time, this whole time I’ve said it all already, I just haven’t said it yet Distortions at the edge of the lens That’s where we make friends Ah

Suspended 01:45
lyrics

I might be the only one in the room who believes I am who I am But you know how that is and believe me too, at least you used to Did we go together, are we still here? I think I made it through the sun now But I feel weird I’m suspended here now When one of us goes, I know why And my teeth still shine

Sleepwalk 02:05
lyrics

Calling everyone I know I’m wrapped in plastic Laid in the backseat I can move my fingers, I can move my toes I know magic I need singers, healers, heroes, poets, new clothes We’re headed to the evergreen forest We’re taking back roads Street lamp turns on at dusk Just as I punch out Of the second story window of my apartment building Head first, handcuffed, looking at the sky I planned for this (I planned for this) I saw this coming I’m the architect (I built this place) And the gardener (I tend the ground) Make my approach, I go really slow No, I’m going really fast I’m out of control That I never really had Since I stopped eating, sleeping I could run without gaps, reason and recent past Have the last laugh I planned for this (I planned for this) I saw this coming I’m the architect (I built this place) And the gardener (I tend the ground) My torso almost touching dark sand already I hear a car pull around the corner The driver jumps out their motor runs steady

Next Week 02:27

Next week I’ll see you in the same place When we speak of other people in a strange way I thought I was better I thought I was gone for good But here we are meeting again the same way that we were Shadow, ghost, heartache, host Next week I’ll see you in the same place When we speak of other people in a strange way I thought I’d get better I thought I was gone for good But we’ll always meet again the same way that we were Shadow, ghost, heartache, host When you run away at will You might find yourself standing still Because you can’t lose yourself Next week I’ll see you in the same place When we speak of other people in a strange way Because it’s just me talking to me talking to me Yeah it’s just me talking to me talking to me Turning and returning Turning and returning

Enemy 02:06
lyrics

I thought I could tell my enemies Within and without The way that man speaks, There is no doubt But who else will I have to do without? Can’t go out in public, that’s how it feels Can’t talk about love or make an appeal I walk in silence, afraid I won’t hide my face I’m being betrayed, I’m always betrayed The state can’t save me, no There is no safety but my death For you And I get to know that And I get to know that I thought I could tell my enemies Within and without The way that man speaks, There is no doubt But who else will I have to do without? Can’t go out in public, that’s how it feels Can’t talk about love or make an appeal I walk in silence, afraid I won’t hide my face I’m being betrayed, I’m always betrayed

Dreaming Girl Stirs 02:32
lyrics

What a manic star Automatic halo lit like a neon dream Crashing through my computer screen I’d rather meet my god, look at the mess I made Steeped in awe, nothing could make me stay Ooo I see you cry How do I show you? How do I show myself? I used to wonder How do I learn? Now I know I whisper back at thunder I’ve always been a girl Living inside outside my own world Be a body if it helps Feel like you could do this by yourself I love the way you want me What a manic (I wanna say I’ll be back for you) automatic star Crashing, crashing through I’d rather meet my god, look at the mess I made I used to be sad Steeped in awe, (I used to be sad) nothing could make me stay Cops fine you, I checked She smiled, I smiled And I waved back She waved back She/I She waved back She smiled She (I)

If you have all the questions Then I’ll ask the answers If you have all the answers Then I’ll be a suggestion Hello world I am me today I am me tomorrow I am me this week I’m weak, I’m weak I know where the pain is I know where it ends I don’t want to tell you in case of a vivisection I am not a mask I am not a man I am not about to find myself below a river bend If you are taken I am your protection I can hold your hand through this All that I can give is music I can hold your hand through this All that I can give is music I can hold your hand through this

Film 02:25
lyrics

Anger comes knocking when darkness is away And I always obey her I always obey Her shadow lays on the window seat I think it likes me in any case, it seems very pleased She stands up and it moves toward the balcony stealing light as it grows (as it grows, as it grows) Her crown touches the ceiling Her face is drenched in sweat I hear her labored breathing Her shadow disconnects It says: I have everything I want here everything I need I might not get to steer the ship but I can make it mean I’m gonna hurt you now But you won’t feel the sting I’m gonna hurt you now In the end you’ll be thanking me Anger seems surprised Frozen in time I never expected to love you The truth is in our eyes I rise to the ceiling I touch her crown I never expect you to love me I’ll prove it, oh I’ll try (oh I’ll try) The shadow retreats The look leaves anger’s eye She says I despise you I always have inside Candle flame turns to smoke And the moon serenades Wake me, don’t wake me up And the moon serenades Wake me, don’t make me up I fly away Make me, don’t make me up I fly away Wake me, don’t wake me up

In the fading light of another afternoon There’s a promise of something new Another you beyond the you But there’s only ever one you There’s only everyone you meet There’s only every time you keep There’s only every night you sleep Doors left open And I’m me Doors left open And I’m free

Moonlight glows from the bottom of the lake It silhouettes the face It silhouettes the face Late at night Lights on Face down Under water In this sinking tomb I realize Nor was it my choice to be born Moonlight glows from the bottom of the lake It silhouettes the face It silhouettes the face Moonlight glows from the bottom of the lake It silhouettes the face It silhouettes the face Swimming in the backseat of your car Late at night Lights on Face down Under water In this sinking tomb I realize Nor was it my choice to be born Moonlight glows from the bottom of the lake It silhouettes the face It silhouettes the face Moonlight glows from the bottom of the lake It silhouettes the face It silhouettes the face Swimming in the backseat of your car Late at night Lights on Face down Under water In this sinking tomb I realize Nor was it my choice to be born
