Mostly Water
01:57

Climb from the sea to the mountaintop
The world will cease undulation
I want to be anywhere but here
Go find the sleep under morning sun
It's a boring state, but aren't they all?
I want excitement
I want the flowers coming up
I want to feel pain
I want everything at once
Good time to leave, under starless day
Only earth remains

Hymnals
03:01
|
|||
You've been a dime a dozen
Not unremarkable but certainly not unforgettable
Nobody has to know that your inadequacies leave us all with wanting something more delicious
The devil in your soul is singing hymnals underwater in the swamp subliminal
Nobody has to know that your inadequacies leave us all with wanting something more delicious

Drink the Dirt
03:53

I'm safe when you're at arm's length
I'm held captive
Don't wait for me, I'm ice amongst the flame...disconnected
Now now, don't cry
It's just a game with black clouds
No one gets hurt
We just drink the dirt
Go away
The ship has sunk into the lake
I'm lost, asleep amongst the waves
I'm happy
Now now, don't cry
It's just a game with black clouds
No one gets hurt
We just drink the dirt
(Why stoop to smell a flower if the stench is sour?
Have I been sentimental, or just simply mental?
Could not have said it better if I wrote a letter
Why can't you leave me alone?)

Francine
03:02
|

Francine, let's dream
Wax lips, mint sheen
Hold on, hold on
Francine, trembling
Soft nose, damp sheet
Hold on, hold on
Francine, gently
Bent hands, bright teeth
Hold on, hold on

Climb the Hill
03:20
|
|||
The soundless bell will toll for only purest souls
Time will tell the fortune foretold
Now, where was I before you caught my eye?
Now, where was I before you crossed my mind?
The darkest bog will swallow the angry fog of sorrow
Endless nighttime will find sunlight
Now, where was I before you crossed my mind?
Now, where was I before you caught my eye?

Why even bother to take a show if you're going to get dirty?
Time is piranha
But don't worry - the pain is temporary
Now you've gone & done it again
I can't remember the last time I saw your face so angry
Don't lose the fervor
It'll never happen if you're always this worried
Now it's gone - go find it again

Tiny Jumpers

Man falling
Woman waving
Everyone is hot, nobody can breathe
Woman in the hole, do the helicopters see?
Tiny jumpers
Hug the concrete
There are no answers hiding beneath your feet
Man falling
Woman waving
Nothing's making sense - what is happening?
Windows on the world shatter into debris
Tiny jumpers
Hug the concrete
There are no answers hiding beneath your feet
Tiny jumpers
Hug the concrete
I can't help but wonder:
"did my own people do this to me?"

Half-life
02:54

No conscience
How dare you leave me in the dark?
I notice the distance ever growing a spark
It fucks me
It fucks me up so I can't think, "how dare you?"
It fucks me up so I cant think straight
"I never wanted you to be sad!" you tell me
Lying through teeth to cover your back
It's pointless...I hate you
More conscious
The human condition is a bitch
So restless...
We'll always be looking for a switch
God dammit - stop treating friends like furniture
Sad, really...
I pity those who stay on your speed dial
"I never wanted you to be mad!" you tell me
Lying through teeth to cover your back
So futile...
There's no saving whatever we had
but there's solace in dreaming future moments of glad

Bright Field
03:19
|
|||
You must eat this hunger before you hit the ground
Nothing lasts forever, but at this rate you are a hole in the dirt
Swear you will surrender
Put the chalice down
The juice you won't stop drinking will put you in the grave before a bullet
Pull your shards together
It's all or nothing now
Stepping stones & mica won't save your withered bones when silence comes around
