Lyrics

Alone with the Stars
Alone with the stars
loosening like
a knot being cut
Here we are
waiting on
a ghost ship
So we long
for the clouds
to welcome us
to comfort us
So we long
for the clouds
to gently cast
their shade on us
Here we are
waiting on
a ghost ship
Here we are
waiting on
the ghost ship
Alone with the stars
Here we are
waiting on
our ghost ship
Here we are
waiting on
the ghost ship
Here I am
waiting on
my ghost ship

Body Prayer
When hell breaks loose
you will all try
to save something
Ain’t nobody crawling
ain’t nobody coming
When love gets lost
you will all try
to find something
Your body’s failing you
ain’t nobody expecting it to be so wild
To be wild
When hell breaks loose
you will all try
to save something
Ain’t nobody crawling
ain’t nobody coming
When love gets lost
you will all try
to save something
Your body’s failing you
ain’t nobody expecting it to be so wild
To be wild
When love gets lost
you will all try
to save something
To be wild

Black/Black/Black
You know what it meant
we were lovers in the dark
in a haze, we were stuck
nowhere else to be
So let it be, as they say
let us just drift away
there’s a storm in this room
skin at sight
You said there were things
you meant to do
you didn’t quite get there, did you
I know you thought you wanted too
you wanted too
So let it be, as they say
let us just drift away
there’s a storm in this room
skin at sight
You know what it meant
we were lovers in the dark
So let it be, as they say
let us just drift away
there’s a storm in this room
skin at sight
You wanted too

My Soldiers
It shakes me how you are ignoring
the helpless misery
From a tower I watch the sun
no company
All I need in my flesh, in my veins, in my brains
in my bones, no more craziness
There’s a small fort
where my soldiers are still alive
and I can breath
A good armor and an arrow it’s all I need
in love and war, in love and war, in love and…
All I need in my flesh, in my veins, in my brains
in my bones, no more craziness
We’re two different folks
All I need in my flesh, in my veins, in my brains
in my bones, no more craziness

Birch
Pull over and kiss me
where the grass
grows thick
where the birch
splits in two
Feverish glances
cycles of roles
You’ll find no eyes
lowered with modesty
We’re inches away
Muffled rooms
then your name
in other mouths
a honest mistery
The wind is shifting
over the silence
that blinds your eyes
I’m running out of wine
I’ll endlessly sip tea
at home
late at night
Muffled rooms
then your name
in other mouths
a honest mystery
The wind is shifting
over the silence
that blinds your eyes
Where the birch splits in two

Visions
Did you ever tell anybody about me
Do you feel the urge to see how I live
Do you really, really, believe what you feel
Do you hide that sly smile to your crowded bed
I’ve got nothing but this
I want nothing but you
Don’t worry I’ll do the talking
as usual
Our words
just piercing through your head
Did you ever tell anybody about me
Do you feel the urge to see how I live
Do you really, really, believe what you feel
Do you hide that sly smile to your crowded bed
I’ve got nothing but this
I want nothing but you
Don’t worry I’ll do the talking
as usual
Our words
just piercing through your head
Every glowing sunset
until the darkest dawn
Do you still feel odd
when you think about me
Amazing secret
I’m an amazing secret
Amazing secret
I’m an amazing secret
I’ve got nothing but this
I want nothing but you
Don’t worry I’ll do the talking
as usual
Our words
just piercing through your head
Every glowing sunset
until the darkest dawn
Do you still feel odd
when you think about me
Amazing secret
I’m an amazing secret

Feels
Mountains of minor details
the low sound of a thunder
Galloping horses
heart in your throat
When all you need is
something achingly beautiful
to feel
It feels good, to feel
While I’m hiding behind thick layers of
While I’m hiding behind thick layers of
And you can’t smile
you can’t smile
you can’t smile
Remember
I don’t want to put things
into categories
I don’t want to be labelled
like a brand of tea
Desires, lie within us all
weird, scary, violent,
demanding feelings
It feels good, to feel
While I’m hiding behind thick layers of

Hairbrushing
I remember her long hair
hot with sunlight
Her long hair in his fist
a carnival charade
Language
is a matter of eyes
We were just glad
to be in the same room
Eyes like silky wings
It’s written all over you
weakness in your legs
It’s written all over you
an old flavor at the back
of your throat
Language
is a matter of eyes
We were just glad
to be in the same room
Eyes like silky wings
Language
is a matter of eyes
We were just glad
to be in the same room
Eyes like silky wings
Same room
To be in the same room
Eyes like silky wings
Same room
Eyes like silky wings
Same room
