the point of the crown to the need for a name and exit, where's the exit? me city me i pay no mind as i thrash through the gland with an amber switch that keeps me on the brink the brink of failure the brink of pride how's everyone? now he's fields afar he's never held a hold couldn't rip his shirt off the clubhouse floor with all that dancing music is what keeps him here music is what keeps the brink of failure the brink of pride how's everyone? i'm in a band and the band is called thought and we're "in a wicker basket" and we're "on my yacht" and we're off to East Haven and we're in a chowder pot and of course we're in the shower and of course the water's hot

please kiss me when the moon comes and take me as the sun rises please be a thousand miles away when i realise how much you've changed me "i want to hear only your light voice running on…" please be a thousand miles away when i realize what it is I need from you my hand in your hand one calls out for more this is new and i'm afraid please be less afraid what's the name of letting go? don't apologise what's the word for from behind? you wrote it in your phone i don't even know my axe friends are on their way i am worth the gentle doze love this time of day down the hatch saliva goes wave from far away my hand in your hand is all i need to know please be a thousand miles away when i realize how much you've given me "i want to hear only your light voice running on" my hand in your hand once is not enough one is not a fair amount one is hardly one once i'm here inside your love focus on my pain drink a lot but not alone touch your drink to mine wouldn't it be great to die? now that i've arrived new behaviours day to day no one likes a child now i'm naked now i'm not wake up to a kiss my hand in your hand is all i need to know

a trail of blood across america from the back of my head, to the crack of my ass, to the soles of my feet no, no thanks because when i thought i couldn't make it if you feel the cliche "hope is gone" find yourself "the will to carry on" 'cause you probably couldn't move right and you probably couldn't sleep right now but it's alright how can i live my friendships in this time? how can i reclaim what is mine? how can i express all this anger? how can i make clear what is messed up? how do i tell my family that i'm lonely? how can i let the day that he made be enough for me, enough for me?

Words Of Yes 02:32
please take me with you i want to go there i want to feel that kind of faith my voice quicks higher i pay directly unravel gadgets swiftly nowhere the nearest ale house the hate museum unselfconscious wholly wasteful don't go without me i need a friend now and your forgiveness knows no bounds i have imagined a solemn place where we can echo

The Kingdom 02:08
under the tree: jubilee rare as the goldest dream the pace of faith, the pace of faith the faith surpasses faith now you're stranded in a lost world come here to me the kingdom will remain unseen the kingdom is now man shows man tells man discovers the new world yet again but i won't let love into my life

a wonderful child is come into my life and all i know to do is dance and sing about it a wonderful child has shed light on my heart and all i know to do is lift my hands about it a wonderful child has brought a world of good with him mmm to be an instrument won't that be a day mmm to know my labour's spent won't that be a day mmm to have my customs rattled won't that be a day a wonderful child has allowed to me to see myself up close oohhh a wonderful child has helped me avoid all of the pain i used to hide behind he urges me to question his authority he asks me am i prospering i say i hope to soon a wonderful child has shed light on my heart and all i know to do is

he sit always on the right hand lost my way around in my life in my arms i'll take anything sit on your right hand draw comfort from your hand i'll take anything asleep or careless in your wake i love what you've done with yourself you look so downtown all abuzz on people's lips you're all we can talk about meanwhile i'm so blue i'll take anything whatever it takes in my mouth in my life i'll take anything eat from your right hand feel newness in the hand i'll take anything freedom freedom from the take chorus i'll take anything i'll drink anything i'll go anywhere i'll do anything
8.
try to arrange everything to be just so look right, consent to thee i accept its overtaking me your angry way elastic band the features together i don't expect it to be too long now i surrender all to you if you explain what you mean, what you mean i rose again from the slab a restless leg i wore a jacket most know to be true i'm flying, i'm flying and i hope marty robbins sings the hanging tree the camera pans right out you see my breast you wish i'd died right there on the table meet me where the big gunpowder falls and call me that again what you mean, what do you mean
9.
Save Me 04:19
save me save me from you but pave me the way to you lead me upon the captive free gracious and tame like love can be lead me upon spoil me spoil me with you and soil me with the world of you watch over me with a mother's eyes judging my worth only to glorify watch over me save me save me save me save me carry carry me through and bury all my doubts of you clothe my desire with spell or prayer i'll shroud every sign of need i swear clothe my desire save me save me
