You Will Never Arrive

On sacred ground, with a burning head I stirred up your bones again.
Under darkened sky, by a firelight I summoned your name again.
And I need to be rid of my haunted and long suffering nights.
You feel so far away.
Tracking miles alone.
If I could cave the space.
And my body is gone.
Cradled by the ground, under stars I can't name I imagined your voice again.
With a sacrifice to a moon I can't see, can I make myself whole again?
And I need to be rid of my haunted and long suffering nights
You feel so far away.
Tracking miles alone.
If I could cave the space.
And my body is gone...

Only in small waves I sigh
All of this want has folded time
Throw out your skin I've crawled inside
And even as the stars go out
There's nothing more that I could want
So drink it in and kill the lights
We'll slip beneath a wave
Cover me in all the tears you like
All this longings steady fire
Throw out your fears and we"ll burn our disguise
And even as the stars go out
There's nothing more that I could want
So drink it in and kill the lights
We'll slip beneath a wave

Goat Teeth

Slow tree of stars
Swallowing patience, adrift on an ocean.
Teeth on my heart
Crippling instinct, a lamb on a fire
And this is the last time that I'll ever bring you down
Something has bled my sleep tonight
A ghost that has learned my song
I have been charmed
Follow the words of illumination
Warmed by the sun
Distant the shelter, a lamb on a fire
And this is the last time that I'll recognize my shape
I can't be untied tonight
Fate has been shown my song

Graceless
05:35
|

I never tried to be too much of anything
The wilds of all your comfort, I can see your light right through the trees
I've become disciplinary, punishing warm thoughts like these
Your pull feeds my incaution, think I'll let you pull me underneath
I spoke in ancient breath to keep my head aloft
I've been so tired and graceless
I wore your whispered song
I never tried to see all of my grim misgivings
You make me want to be a brighter light than what I've been
Could we slip away, fall into the soothing whisper
Your skin an incantation given, I could be something you want to keep
I stole a thankless glance into a dying star
I found a fire inside all you have been before
I dreamt in endless circles
When woken they were gone
I'll float out under stars now until my body's gone

Shoreless
06:48
|
|||
Like sparks on the water
What a long time I've carried on
Drifted deep pooled in memory
Haunting temples I've carved in bone
And I bemoan the falling embers from your eyes
The only home I've ever known
A sacrifice of miles and waiting
I'll drag my body across your temples floor
Keep the fire inside me warm tonight
We are shoreless and far from home tonight
Without a wave we are drifting
Only the stars and endless sea
Too you a song I am repeating until my body loses me
They'll find my bones gnawed and baking
Under a sun that won't forgive my name
So make a home to hold your memories
Of who I was before I met the Sea
Keep the fire inside me warm tonight
We are shoreless and far from home tonight

Other Desert Cities

If I could strip you to the weight of just your eyes
Come untethered I'm bewitched and beguiled
sun has cracked and split my lips from teeth and bone
Endless sand swells my tongue to sing it's song
You want to whisper to stars tonight
You want to find out the edge
Of where you end and I begin
Let's trace along fingertips
I'll slip away through your eyes tonight
Drifting on without end
Until the pull of your lip on mine...
I awoke here, your name a scar across my tongue
Heavy lidded and thirsting from the sun
I'll stare the moon down when it takes over the sky
Sleep in the tall grass and await your hand in mine
You want to whisper to stars tonight
You want to find out the edge
Of where you end and I begin
Let's trace along fingertips
I'll slip away through your eyes tonight
Drifting on without end
Until the pull of your lip on mine...

Elephant Graveyard

It was the loneliest sound to hear your shadows song
An echo deep in the mouth of your limping heart
Fill my lungs with your dying sigh
With your words I'll sleep tonight
I hope you choke upon the bones
Of whatever's left to find
I've got a place to hold you close
Hanging limp upon my tusk
If I never live to see you find your hole
To wear the paint of a living ghost
Breath the smoke from the fire
Put you to bed upon the pyre
I hope you choke upon the bones
Of whatever's left to find
I've got a place to hold you close
Hanging limp upon my tusk

A flavoured inconsequence
I've birthed into a cold room
Contracting with my mistakes
An endless shape of confusion
Another anxious twitch just left of every dream
A puzzle without flesh I've thought of everything
A loose collection of spells
Whispered when my will is shaken
I'll make a silent escape
Between the space in your breathing
Another anxious twitch just left of every dream
A puzzle without flesh I've thought of everything
Swallowing me

No Sound

I saw a light on the edge of this town
And as I dreamt of your eyes
There was no sound, no sound
Spend all my love just like money
Let it all go dark as the curtain falls
We'll stand here by the waters edge
See your face reflected in the stars
Let me melt into your sigh again
We'll make no sound, no sound
Spend up my love just like money
Who cares if the curtain falls

Burn
06:59
|
|||
In the dark all I hear is your breathing
In my mind your fingers trace your name on my eyes
And I forget myself
And I undo myself
I could burn myself out from the inside
I'll do it slow I know I will
Time it crawls across my skin
And I am impatient
And I lose myself
And I undo myself
Perhaps your outline is a ghost in my memory
as I'm savagely waiting to finally purge my dread

Von Neumann's Heart
13:10
|

To be the cool and tempting water
Hypnotic voice of steely reason
A voice unlike the others
To pull you in and call you home
Me as I've identified
The self that I have whispered to
Bring order to all this suffocating noise
Languid and long I have fed you
Dreaming like the rivers shore
Bruised as if the evenings sky
I will see you just like before
An ancient arm so tired of reaching
Crippled engine of self control
Grinding voice so tired of preaching
A freak beneath the moon
I'm so glad to see you
Languid and long I have fed you
Dreaming like the rivers shore
Bruised as if the evenings sky
I will see you just like before

it all began when the original tree dwelling primates were forced to leave their arboreal dwellings and wander the newly forming grasslands as the forests began to give way to plains. their search for new food sources led to the discovery of the mushroom... in small doses, the mushroom would increase pupil dilation, making these primates more efficient night hunters. in larger doses however... ... more
