Forgetting 03:57
lyrics
buy track
Forgetting will begin with your eyes then swallow your voice It will consume you entirely Little by little I will be free How can anyone endure such pain You destroy me, you please me You’re not endowed with memory With all my might I fought not to forget I longed for us to be alone In a dream of shadow and stone Staying here is even more impossible than leaving One day or three, time enough To live and die I don’t care much My body still ablaze with the memory of you I did not expect this at all I can’t leave you I’m so miserable Hands become useless They claw and scrape Away at the rocks until they bleed I’m so madly in need Of a sky above I’ve never seen Then one day eternity comes to an end I hear the bells ring up above I tremble at forgetting such love Somewhere sometime I will see you again But I know that you’ll run So I give you up to oblivion You will become a song Symbol of love forgotten and long gone

Pearl 04:18
lyrics
buy track
Pearl is my lover and I'll love her til I die She's got golden curls around her and silver in her smile Her eyes are blue and brown and green Like sea and the mountains in between The world compressed and then released Exploding in desire No finery upon her neck but finest lines and shapes Descending all around her like a statue made of finest grace Her mind is like a lioness and her heart is like a lamb Her laugh is like a fountain in which I cast my hand I know it gets so complicated when You're running in your own direction I know you'll never be beholden to me Holding onto me I miss the way her tender hand ran across my brow And down my cheeks like tears for wishing she were here Her memory inside my mind is like the purest dream Vivid as the pebbles in a rocky mountain stream Now Pearl is so far away but I cannot forget The way she loved me on that night when first our souls met

Secrets 03:46
lyrics
buy track
You know I'd tell you all my secrets dear There were, I thought you knew Always a few I don't think that you really want to hear Don't, no don't, don't you say Everything's gonna be ok No no no no don't you show me Every little thing that I want to see The window washed the rays across the room And every little shine Was gleaming sharp and fine You sat there rubbing dirt into my wounds Don't, no don't, don't you go What else do you want to know No no no no no don't you say Everything's gonna be ok I've got this man deep down inside of me You know he loves to wait Until the hour's late He only loves you in your misery

Let the Fire 03:47
lyrics
buy track
Lately I’m waking with a nightmare in my bed My head’s a-fever with the vision I see Still the same old me California is the vision that I’m dreaming Gleaming sun shining on the sand Like a promised land Look to the west over an ocean never-ending Sending flowers to the desert at my feet Pray they never meet Living on the beach while the water’s still free Floating lazily I’m gonna let the fire come for me I don’t believe they put a man on the moon It’s too soon to dust off these shoes And sing the future blues Sometimes it feels like we’re on top of a mountain Counting steps to the waterfall Railing Adderall The sea is honey and the earth is molasses And we’re the masses of little fruit flies Living on little white lies Cop’s in the city and the judge is in the seat We’re running wild in the street Let’s set the fire and dance in the heat Burn burn, and sink into the sea Every day the fire gets a little closer Can't see the mountains with the smoke in the air Every day I'm coughing up the blackness and the stars are gone in the glare There's a prison with a view of the ocean I've got a notion 'bout that property Can't afford to be free in this commotion Can't afford to live in bridge city Driving to the levee in my '57 Chevy Simulated on TV I'm gonna let the fire purify me

Go with the Flow 03:26
lyrics
buy track
I’ve been lost in confusion I’ve been living in dread If it’s that thing again now I think I’d rather be dead Oh mama I’m coming home Coming home to stay I packed my bags this morning Won’t you see me away Remember when we were younger The places we used to play I will be there forever Even when I’ve gone away Oh lord I’ve got this feeling Radiating heat It’s gonna hurt a little It’s gonna make me complete I’m gonna get that flash now See my life unwind You know I always said I’d Pay it no mind I’m tired of moving I’m tired of sleep I can’t take the tension The water’s knee deep All of the beauty What does it matter to me now Slipping away My vision narrows to the light Now I feel so shameful Being so pacifist As I’m fighting myself here Who am I to resist So mama live your life Though it won’t be fair There’s nothing says it should be The laws are pretty clear Oh mama please forget me So it goes you know Sometimes it feels so good to Go with the flow

Animals 02:28
lyrics
buy track
I don't believe you, honey, when you talk about love Like fate ordained by the sky above Incandescent feathers, show me what you're worth It was a long line of animals that put you on this earth You can always reach out before you reach back in Give it your best shot, because you're in it to win You can get selected, spit your legacy Or make your peace with lonely misanthropy
