Becoming
You
(Unreleased track)
Ha ha ha, we float our way
through this lonely world, again you say
"It's funny how the years go by when you never stop
singing"
Well it gets so easy
riding on your shadow my ideas get lost amid your own.
Count the days and spaces filled with cars and cases,
robots, sand and sea foam.
We sing the song we wrote when we were kids for so long.
Paper clips, and long road trips, make for silly stories.
Well it got so easy
riding on your shadow my ideas get lost amid your own.
Count the days and spaces filled with cars and cases,
robots, sand and sea foam.
Becoming you.
Blackened
Crown
(Released on "EP1" and "EP2")
A face broken upstairs I fall
down
Tumbling I lose my ground
Paint my hair a blackened crown
Lift my head as I cry out
Did you hear me holler
at you
to come save me I'm in danger
My pearls have fallen into mud
and you were too late
This breath precious to you
knocked from me
Taken so faintly and
I never feel 'till it's too late
Did you hear me holler
at you
to come save me I'm in danger
My pearls have fallen into mud
and you are too late.
Brightly
Wound
(Released on "Room Noises")
I am just wishing you were here, so we could walk down to the
brook.
And we would throw all our leaves in, seeing our dragon
when we look.
It's happening all the time,
When I open my eyes, I'm still taken by surprise,
You have shining eyes, yes like those forest lights, and
it makes me want to cry.
I love you
I shall never grow up, Make
believe is much too fun.
Can we go far away to the humming meadow, this place is so
lovely.
It kind of makes me very happy. Can we go far away to the
humming meadow?
I am just wishing you were
here, so we could walk down to the brook.
And we would throw all our leaves in, seeing our dragon
when we go.
We we're walking there, I had
tangles in my hair, but you make me feel so pretty.
I hold sunlight, and swallow butterflies and it makes me
want to cry.
I love you...
Dream For Me
(Released on "EP1" and "EP2". MP3
available on this site)
Night falls... am I dreaming?
The fears are toying with my head
and I'm swept away by the wind
And I can't fight them anymore... anymore.
Frantically I run for my life.
Oh, I'm faint with fear
Chase me down with your knife
and I don't want to die
Chase me down with your knife
Tears of pain and salt fall
once again
Your twisted schemes scrape my mind with your hand
and I don't want to die
Chase me down with your knife
Sleep my little child and rest
in me...
The Escaping Song
(Available on iTunes)
I felt the wind shifting back
on us
Hold on we have to run
But we can't escape there's no
way
They'll call our names through the speakers
La, ah
La, ah
When they find you, they'll
retrieve you
Take you where sphered domes will freeze you
But we can't escape there's no
way
They'll call our names through the speakers
La, ah
La, ah
Men would die at sea for you
But all I want is you
Men would live and die for you
But all I want is you, you
These beautiful moments we
shared together
All end now
They'll make me drink this potion; I'll sleep forever
Until I wake under the glacier ground
The ground
The ground, oh yeah
Golly Sandra
(Released on "Room Noises")
G-g-g-golly Sandra
You've grown up really crazy
Have I been too denying of you
G-golly Sandra
You've grown up so crazy
Have I been too untrusting
Take me down to the bridge
Where you know that I'll always love you
And I'll go without stopping
Oh you are my scar, and that's not really far
Hey, hey
G-g-g-golly Sandra
You've grown up really crazy
Have I been too denying of you
G-golly Sandra
You've grown up so crazy
Have I been too untrusting
Take me down to the bridge
Where you know that I'll always love you
And I'll go there without stopping
Oh you are my scar, and that's not really far
Hey, hey
Well I guess I should have been around
To sing you too sleep
You look so beautiful
It hurts me slightly
Oh, oh
Oh you are my scar, and that's not really far
Hey, hey
Oh you know that I have tried so hard
For you, for you
Head Against the Sky
(Released on "EP2". Different version available
on this site and iTunes)
Sleep with your head against
the sky tonight.
I can't count how many times you have made me cry.
I marvel at the way your hair glows in the light.
There's one who cares for me
today.
I've watched you grow up
child, you have made me proud.
I love the way your hand fits so nicely in mine.
I always screw up, I wonder how you sing to me.
There's one who cares
for me today.
I Wasn't Prepared
(Released on "Laughing City EP" and "Room
Noises")
When the day is blue, I'll sit
here wondering about you
and how the pollen fell all around your face in strange
yellow patterns.
But, I wasn't prepared for
this.
When the morning came
the bees flew down and wrapped themselves around me,
And that's when I spoke a word, to have them trace your
face for me in pollen.
But, I wasn't prepared for
this.
Come back, come back to me, my darling.
Just
Like We Do
(Released on "Room Noises")
Dear, did you know that people
love each other
Just like we do
Just like they do
Dear did you know you're all I ask for
So hold on to me
Hold on with me here
And there are things that follow us
Quietly to the past
We've seen all those faces
We won't go looking for trouble
The rain tumbled down through the cracks in the sky
Which made your hands grow
Watch your hands grow
But we still see through their planks, shifting laughs
We'll hold the hands of sinners and we will pass
Oooh ah
Oooh ah
Oooh ah
Laughing City
(Released on "EP2" and "Laughing City
EP". MP3 available on this site)
Follow me down to the laughing
city with people changing all their minds; its crazy.
I want this maam, that maam, no sir. Yes maam, that
sir;
Well, Ill tell you one thing, if youre keeping something
Then hold on, hold on to the
ones you love.
Hold on, hold on to the ones you love.
Lets not fight, that's not
nice. (Oooh)
Lets not be sore,

Come home late, I know youre
sick of working.
Youre feeling down because your head is hurting, so we
dont talk.
Hold on, hold on to the ones
you love.
Hold on, hold on to the ones you love.
Lets not fight, that's
not nice. (Oooh)
Lets not be sore,
that's not right. (Oooh,
that is where youll find me)
Lost at Sea
(Released on "Room Noises")
Sailing over wave and tide, oh
Fantastic waves against the sides of the hull
And I'm not so afraid, lost at sea, as I should be
And I'm not so afraid, lost at sea, you and I, you and me
Congratulations 'cause we made
it
All the way home, all the way home
And you know that until the stars fall
I will always love you, I will always love you
The mystery of salt and sea,
oh
Has never been intriguing, oh
To me, but the sea green is set so beautifully
Against your thoughtful face that I must close my eyes
Or turn my face
Congratulations 'cause we made
it
All the way home, all the way home
And you know that until the stars fall
I will always love you, I will always love you
Still floating soft
I am dreaming, and I'm glad I'm lost
And still
With my fingers drawing circles
In water, in water
And still, still you're always there
Congratulations 'cause we made
it
All the way home, all the way home
And you know that until the stars fall
I will always love you, I will always love you
Lullaby
(MP3 available on this site.)
After the moon comes up, all of
the toys behind closed doors
open their eyes and move their squeaky joints across the
floor.
Rocking horses run, tinker
toys assembling,
twisting mobile stars, dancing dolls and spinning cars.
Stop, will you stop? Will you
stop and speak to me?
Wake, I know you're awake. Move your mouth and speak to
me.
I'm not the kind who will take it for granted,
no, I'm not the kind who will take it for granted.
How I would like to know all
the toy soldiers in a row,
marching to and fro, all the tin soldiers in a row.
Tiny painted mouths,
how I wish you'd utter now,
words of nursery rhyme, tongue and teeth all click in
time.
Stop, will you stop? Will you
stop and speak to me?
Wake, I know you're awake. Move your mouth and speak to
me.
I'm not the kind who will take you for granted,
no, I'm not the kind who will take you for granted.
Marvelous
Things
(Released on "Marvelous Things EP" and
"Room Noises")
I awoke the dawn
saw horses growing out the lawn
ah ah .....
I glimpsed a bat with butterfly wings
oh what marvelous things
ah ah....
Dark night...hold tight, and
sleep tight
my baby
Morning light...shall burst bright
and keep us here safely
I followed a rabbit
through rows of mermaid entwined shrubbery
Ah ah....
Oh what marvelous things but, they are, they are, the
