Canticle of Mya
02:50
|
|||
|
Oh Mya
Oh Mya
Oh Mya
A cornucopia of plenty
I’ve seen a river bigger than all seas
Oh Mya, Mya
Grinding bones with teeth, leave me be
Can you find me
I was the only one
The golden son
My guilt just weighs a ton
A ton
Mya, oh Mya
Mya, Mya

To Anna
Emotional overdose
I wish I was comatose
You gave me comfort
Yet I felt so cold
Anna, -na
Anna, Anna
You made me feel like my life wasn’t over
I wanted to be in control
How was I supposed to know?
My fingertips are getting cold
Am I another short story in prose?
In prose, in prose
Another short story in prose
In prose, in prose
Leave me laying here I suppose
I suppose, I suppose
Anna, Anna
Anna
I wish I could tell my body I’m sorry
I never meant to hurt myself
I’m sorry, I’m sorry
I’m sorry, I’m sorry
I’m sorry, I’m sorry
Anna
Anna, -na
Anna, Anna
Anna, -na
Anna, Anna
You made me feel like my life wasn’t over
I wanted to be in control
Anna

Umbra
04:00
|
|||
|
The foliage comes from the willow tree
It covers up the sun as I lie beneath
In my darkest hours I’d like to be alone
In my darkest hours I’d like to be alone
As your umbra devours
My little home
And I start to wonder where did serenity go?
Leave by your penumbra covers me
And washes over my home
Oh diluvian downpour won't you swim over and meet me by the shore
Her clay covered hands forging man, won't you please just meet me by the shore
And I'm starting just to understand you a little more
Let me go, let me go, let me go
I won't allow it, I won't allow it
Monochrome overtones, I feel alive
And you swore to me "I'll try again" but I'll never try
As your umbra devours
My little home
As your umbra devours
My little home
Oh diluvian downpour won't you swim over and meet me by the shore
Her clay covered hands forging man, won't you please just meet me by the shore
And I'm starting just to understand you a little more

Lucia
03:05
|
|||
|
Seduce me
I can’t be left on my own
Introduce me
To someone who holds their weight in gold
Is it shocking
Tongue-tied talking
It sounds like I’m talking reversed
Every option –
Feels like starving
And you make sure I leave you hurt
A tethered lifelessness
Shows me who you are
Something drags me in
And I can’t leave your arms
Hey Lucia, I know I take things way too far
Hey Lucia, why do you watch me from afar?
Lucy, Lucia
Lucy, Lucia
Hey Lucia I know I take things way too far
Hey Lucia why do you watch me from afar?
Hey Lucia I know I take things way too far
Hey Lucia why do you watch me from afar?

Katydids Chorus
03:06
|
|||
|
The crickets chatter
But was it like yesterday
Oh yesterday
You seem well mannered
But can you do this everyday
Oh everyday
The katydid begins to sing
With an insolent gall
Sleeping in the Quercus tree
Chorus and all
A sudden foggy like murkiness
Starts blowing in a squall
A grasshopper starts to leap
Avoiding it all
May the road set to rest you
How can I rescue
Every night, I struggle to forget you
Forget you
You demonize my every right
In the dark without a light
I'm trying
Every single sleepless night
You leave me here without a fright
I know it
The pitter-patter of your feet walking Riverside
You seem mesmerized
When you shift I shattered
You couldn't bring me back to life
Could you try
The katydid begins to sing
With an insolent gall
Sleeping in the Quercus tree
Chorus and all
A sudden foggy like murkiness
Starts blowing in a squall
A grasshopper starts to leap
Avoiding it all

Meaning of a Man
03:23
|
|||
|
I just get afraid sometimes
And you don't even care
You don't always have to be
So much better, than everyone
So much better –
Ooh, darling
What's the meaning of a man
Ooh, you’re no better than me and him
Ooh, what’s the meaning –
The meaning of a man
What's the meaning of a man
What's the meaning of a man
Ooh, what’s the meaning of a man
You can count on me
If I’m the last one on this island
You’d be the only one I'd miss
Everyone’s so much better
Ooh, darling
What's the meaning of a man
What's the meaning of a man
Ooh, you’re no better than me and him
Ooh, what’s the meaning –
The meaning of a man
Ooh, the meaning of a man
Ooh, the meaning of a man
Ooh, the meaning of a man
Ooh, the meaning of a man

Paean, Incarnate
02:10
|

|
Night falls
State of withdrawal
Can you make a better me
I said, can you make a better me
Just leave us
Is this a performance for you
Is this what you want me to do
I can’t tell
I can’t tell
Just leave us –
Leave

Chimera
07:00
|

|
Chimera, chimera
Chimera
Chimera
It’s not ordinary to be with you
Confide, leave me be
Come here, show me how to be dependent
Lying on you
Don’t leave, my shepherd
It’s been long awaited
Chimera
Lying on you
Shepherd of the host

Birthmark
03:44
|
|||
|
Left a, left a message in a bottle
I hope they find it
A couple stones, thrown in a battle
Total rebirth
Hope turned me into a child again
He used to be scared of his own shadow
Again
Hope turned me into a child again
Into a child again, into a child again
Can you keep that beauty mark, keep it precious for me
Keep it precious for me
And I see, you hide
You hide it all the time, you hide it all the time
Don't mind me, I like to watch you do the things you like
He used to be scared of his own shadow
Again
Hope turned me into a child again
Into a child again, into a child again
Hope turned me into a child again
Into a child again, into a child again
Hope turned me into a child, child
Your hope turned me into a child
Your hope turns me into a child
