Pull You Up
05:57
|

They'll be time, when we get older
To worry over ends
But for now
Pots and pans, and shapes in the floor
What is a plan? These sounds are what I'm for
Found a pattern, come friend I'll show
Big ones they say, now is time to play
If we fight over ends, tomorrow we'll be friends
On the porch a cold drink, burst laughter in sync
Air always warm enough, to explore together
If you fall through the ice, I won't think twice
I will be there to, pull you up
I will be there friend, yes I'll pull you up
No I won't think twice, I will pull you up
We got a long hike through, the snow but we can make it
[[Intro]]
Pots and pans, and shapes in the floor
What is a plan? These sounds are what I'm for
Found a pattern, come friend I'll share
Big ones they say, now is time to play
Kiss me kisser, under the softly flowing moon
We'll play some house it's okay if we trade the broom
Kiss me kisser under the heavy turning sun
Nobody needs to lead for us to have fun
[[Chorus]]

To the Moon
04:06
|
|||
Somebody's mother in a store
We gone again to moon and more
And just now shoes that fit these feet
Or some smile all skin type greet
Somebody speaking from a screen
"That's just the way it is" in this graying dream
And it really makes some sense to be
A little deadened to all the tragedy
But I don't want to leave my heart
Behind just to play some monochromatic part
Somebody's brother on the shore
We gone again to the moon and more
And just now looking beneath this deep
Or some smile for rainbow lover's keep
Somebody speaking from a dream
Life ain't always like what's on the screen
And it really makes some sense to be
A little deadened to all the pageantry
(I heard someone name their hair a color)
(I looked but didn't see what they seemed to see)
[[Chorus]]
Strawberry chamber says - What does it say?
could it have said - "Come follow me"
Strawberry chamber says - What does it say?
could it have said - I know it says
All of my hairs are different colors each a brushstroke
Their hues swaying round
And each little part has got something to say everyone
A song from the ground
And every cell in your bodies got big plans
Just like your hopes and dreams
[[Chorus 2]]
[[Chorus 3]]
And isn't it beautiful that we're all coming from
The same intertwined strings
The future they sing
Those intertwined strings
The future they bring
Those entwined arms and legs
The question they beg

Skittles

Well lets paint some tasty moments
Light patterns to tie us shades together
And when we are stormy (To tie, shades together)
Well lets blame it on their winter weather
A cozy little house where (let's blame it, on their winter)
Where we can squiggle together
And when we're apart it really (together, we can squiggle)
It really brings me down
I miss your body
Your purrs and energy
Those sparkling glasses
Through them your love it passes
We skin roll on waves
of mirrors where our eyes were
We try to keep smooth but
flake to rough embraces
[[Intro]]
These concrete waters, that surround us on all sides
Are illusions, though they bring pain to our summer strides
You feel this, this wind move
But eventually
this summer groove, will it's lens remove
into the night sky
[[Chorus]]
Where rests now my autumn cousin?
Two shades of blue are minded of him
And those brushstrokes, brushstrokes, must strokes
Paint my eyes, our peach cartoon will laugh
At their fading skies
((Harmony Lyrics for Choruses))
(We skin two shades red)
(Of all the things we've bled)
(We skin, two shades blue)
(That trace the points we knew)
(This life is so sweet)
(My heart pounds it's beat)
(Much sweeter with you)
(The skin we flowers shine through)
(We skin roll on time)
(A membrane for the moments)
(We try to hold tight to)
(Good things ever shifting)
(But the paths that we forged)
(Through those bushes and those weeds)
(Is cracking and tattered)
(From its heart to its sleeves)
((shade shade, do you think of him))
((shade shade, my autumn cousin))
((shake shake, to feel the wind move))
((shake shake, life is a summer groove))

Lightning Rods
04:47
|
|||
Sun I rise with the day, and walk out on my way
And grow as I go, with my shadow hides
Road after road, my steps are an ode
To comings and goings, and knowing and not
Street after street, my thoughts form a beat
And if I'm alone, hear the shapes of the stones
And if there are more vibrations in the floor
In the floor, en la fleur
Inside
[[Verse 2]]
(Go alone)
[[Chorus]]
(You see I, you're seeing, in the I)
Moments like these make
All of our lonely
Days seem like waiting
For things like
This new look in the eyes
Walking side by side we paint the skies
Now I'm feelin' your soul what a sweet sweet tide
Ohh it touches something deep inside
This fresh look in the eyes
Lightning rods we catch the falling sky
And I'm feelin' the soul of the tide
Ohh it touches something deep inside
[[Chorus]]
[[Chorus2]]

Clockwork Skin
04:33
|
|||
Over and over again we have
Drawn up these faulty maps
Trying so hard but we're
Stepping on cracks now a back's broken
All of the words that we speak
Are failing to eke out a route
I've tried so hard to find
The borders of a mind
Yes, even in the age of ray-guns
We still writing "Here Be Dragons"
I met a pair of eyes just right
But their trail vanished in the night
And if they find a port less stormy
I will still be sand and pouring
Into a vessel I've never been in
Another suit of clockwork skin
This skin, this skin
This clockwork skin
Well I know you won't hear my voice for
The din, those gears make in your skin
The echos of patterns you've been
This skin, this skin
This clockwork skin
Within, within
The animals they swim
[[Intro]]
[[Verse 1]]
Yes, even in the lands of dragons
We're trigger happy with our ray guns
Thought we had a plan just right
But now we drink to pass the night
And if we find a port less stormy
We will still be sand and pouring
Into a vessel we've never been in
Another suit of clockwork skin
[[Chorus]]

Off the Stars
04:56
|
|||
See the light spinning off the stars
No light from cars you point out mars
We're with the trees tonight
See our friend falling off the roof
He "oof" and pine tree spoof with smiles as
He shakes his bows at us
Life with risk is taunting doom
But life without is a closing tomb
A yellow room with no view of the sky
I've got some dancin' pants I'd like to try
Thoughts not gonna get us there tonight
Let go of this frame and fright
Friends we skin roll on waves anew
We dive fast into the rush the blue
If you wanna strip down to your skin
No such thing sin it's warm grass
In you are going
Now the heats spinning off our bodies
Are they too old for these odd games
well we are not
Moments, we move, in and out of
They're passing, pause and they're gone
[[Chorus]]

Darkly Scanners
03:44
|
|||
Iridescent rays, slice through the wall
They flutter and fall, on every writhing cell
Their phrase I know all too well cause
Lately my peaches are in forty-eight pieces
And I'm struck with inside fever
Over the things time releases
Over the things time releases
Now all of our light patterns are hanging (In my head)
And the memory of your voice
Sets their skeins to clanging (Hear them now)
We heard such similar, words and yet
scanned them so, differently
What a mystery, now you mist to me
Silly wet silhouettes, wander from screen to screen
They stutter and call, and make their world a cell
Their pace I know all too well cause
when I was slicing your moods, I made pretend it was just food
That would heal your insides and keep us
From being a sweet and sad longing
A parallel path never again to be reached
[[Chorus]]

Electric Trees
05:34
|
|||
I've been called a dreamer before
But there's more than one kind of sleep
And inside the heads of Van Winkle zombies
Are dreams of electric trees
I once sprang from springs
To find that all my things had gone and rusted
Now growing mold upon
Electric tree fruit for which I lusted
I don't wanna fall back asleep
Hey my genie come and rescue me
And I've been too much lurk and slow creep
Come on, come on, and wake me
Alive, Alive
We're alive our cells are splitting inside
Lines, Lines
These lines now coming together as one
Who, Who
Am I the sum of the cells inside?
Who, Who
Lost in the myriad lines
So I don't wanna bury bones
and carry stones
or look away from I's
We're in the middle of
the riddle of
chasing after ourselves

Spin the Dial
06:33
|
|||
Come on (x9) friend
Come on (x9) friend
Come on (x9) friend
Come on (x7) out to play
Come on, come on come on friend
The joy of life is in your head
Tell me, tell me, tell me friend
Do you really wanna join the dead?
Join the dead
Don't Join the dead
Don't Join the dead
Well they'll be some hard times ahead
Waiting for these flowers to bloom again
And you'll say "Why should I try?"
[[Verses]]
[[Chorus]]
Well they'll be some hard weight to carry
Before those ghosts help instead of harry
And you say "What's my way? I can't see it in a day."
Your mind is like a radio
You'll find that you can spin that dial
Raise your glass in a toast to the dead
Let go of that grief-script-loop in your head
You don't wanna let those gray streaks grow in your head
You wanna let those script-loops go from your head
You can spin that dial
You can raise your, glass in a toast
It's OK to smile, you can let go
You don't want to let those gray streaks grow in your head
You want to let those script-loops go from your head
[[Chorus]]
