I Can't Stop 03:37
lyrics
buy track
I walked down to the street Watched my mind walk away from me I tried to follow It’s just so hard to see where it’s going Oh oh oh Do you know? Oh oh oh Where did my head go? Stand back I can’t stop Stumble off the block I can hardly walk Stand back I can’t stop My brain took off in a taxi I’ve got no change to catch a ride This space right here draws me near my hand is out they look me down I’ll wait it out it never gets too far Oh oh oh Do you know? Oh oh oh Where did my head go? Stand back I can’t stop Stumble off the block I can hardly walk Stand back I can’t stop I just can’t shake it and you’re taking me no where now Oh I can’t shake it and you’re taking me nowhere no oh Stop Stumble off the block I can hardly walk Stand back I can’t stop

The Sweetness 03:23

I like to touch you, I like to pull I like to push you under the soleil I like to hurt you, I like when you scream I like it, oh it’s just not what it seems It’s the sweetness Oh it’s the sweetness Oh it’s the sweetness Oh it’s the sweetness Oh you’re so sweet You like the motion, you like the roll You like your shoulders pushed into the floor Fix on the floor cause you needed the taste You like it, oh it’s all over your face It’s the sweetness Oh it’s the sweetness Oh it’s the sweetness Oh it’s the sweetness Oh you’re so sweet I will lift you off the ground And release you It’s the sweetness Oh it’s the sweetness Oh it’s the sweetness Oh it’s the sweetness Oh you’re so sweet I will lift you off the ground and release you

Apache 03:25
lyrics
buy track
I’m sticking out like a shout on the sideline Hot on the spot, gonna let it show Soft leather skirt and your beat up stockings You’re stuck with your luck and your luck is low Roll me over Roll me with those white eyes Well you say this world spins too slow And we know this love has just been sold Hey goldilocks on the clock in your castle Boat for the moat, throw down your hair Ride up the vine an electric skyline Follow the trail, you don’t know where Let it go Let it go, it’s a life line You say this world spins too slow And we know this love has just been sold

Glitter Not Gold 03:33
lyrics
buy track
You’re electric with your sunken eyes It’s takes you one hit to put you in the sky And all you have is your innocence And all you need is a ghost You know and I know If you go then I go where you go You set my skull on fire It’s so tragic every time you try So pathetic with your cocaine smile And all you have is your innocence And all you need is the most You know and I know If you go then I go where you go You set my skull on fire Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh It’s glitter it’s not gold But that’s not what you were told Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh It’s glitter it’s not gold, but that’s not what you were You know and I know If you go then I go where you go You set my skull on fire

Perfect World 04:30
lyrics
buy track
Made it in and we’re here again In the place where ti always ends You say, what happens now? In my mind you take it all Push you up against the wall You scream, it gets you off You can feel me You can read my mind It’s alright Just this time I’ll make you think you’re mine Hold me I cannot stand To watch from the dark again Hold me up and I’ll hold you up Is there a perfect world? This just seems so much worse Hold me up and I’ll hold you up Pour it out and I drink it down Hear your voice and turn around You say, what happens now In my mind we’re glued together Tied in binds with rusted teathers I scream, get me out No you can’t know me You can’t read my mind It’s alright Again this time I’ll never make you mine Hold me I cannot stand To watch from the dark again Hold me up and I’ll hold you up Is there a perfect world? This just seems so much worse Hold me up and I’ll hold you up Don’t hold me too tight Don’t turn on the light This night is not over Don’t tell me your soft I can’t turn this off This night is not over Just let it happen Hold me I cannot stand To watch from the dark again Hold me up and I’ll hold you up Is there a perfect world? This just seems so much worse Hold me up and I’ll hold you up

Glow 03:33
lyrics

This broken step This low lit room This tired clock Shines red light through And I’m alright Then down the hall I hear you breath I know you’re there Though I can’t see And I’m alright I’ll let you go I’ll let you go Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh You start to glow From head to toe Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh The sails are down The rip tide sea Tears apart The hull and Beam And I’m alright Then through the dark It’s all I see A lighthouse Like sun to me And I’m alright I’ll let you go I’ll let you go Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh You start to glow From head to toe Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh You know I can’t stay So give me away And you know if you cannot handle it You can keep that light house fire lit I’ll let you go I’ll let you go Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh You start to glow From head to toe Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh

Dance On Your Grave 03:19
lyrics

I never thought you’d kiss and tell You said you’d take it to your grave You got us all under your spell I bet you thought you had it made Oh oh oh thought that I could take it Oh oh oh Never thought you faked it Oh oh oh you had to go and spread it? Oh oh oh now I know where you are headed I’m gonna dance on your grave Because the dead can’t talk The dead can’t talk Don’t mention the war And the war won’t stop The war won’t stop I’m gonna watch you sink or swim Tie bricks onto your heels I guess it’s better you than me I’m gonna watch you take the heat Oh oh oh thought that I could take it Oh oh oh Never thought you faked it Oh oh oh you had to go and spread it? Oh oh oh now I know where you are headed I’m gonna dance on your grave Because the dead can’t talk The dead can’t talk Don’t mention the war And the war won’t stop The war won’t stop

Hillside Ballroom 03:42
lyrics
buy track
Hesitate This hillside ballroom starts to dissipate and dislocate A broken heart This night time high is driven off, I got stood up Still can’t taste the wine, sweeter on the vine Dirty hands, not coming clean Sigh, sigh help me out in here Lie whisper in my ear It’s a lonely ride Behind the doors where all the people hide, start the slide Empty space Light alone won’t fill this place Fuck this place Lines upon the skin, changing from within Tired eyes, won’t go blind Sigh, sigh help me out in here Lie whisper in my ear And when I fall will anybody hear Sigh, help me out in Sigh, sigh help me out in here Lie whisper in my ear And when I fall will anybody hear Sigh, help me out in

Down In A Hole 03:53
lyrics
buy track
I’ll be the sunlight You be the rain in the sky I’ll be correction You be mistakes from old times I’ll be direction You be the broken down sign I’ll be tomorrow But tomorrow we’re old and gone Down in your hole You dig through the ground Your eyes like a mole You see with sound Oh no down in your hole You be the morning I’ll be the night fall at nine(9) You be solution I’ll be distraction and lies You are tomorrow But tomorrow we’re old and gone Down in your hole You dig through the ground Your eyes like a mole You see with sound Oh no down in your hole

Took So Long 04:10
lyrics
buy track
These eyes have seen enough To know when it’s time to stop And these hands can’t hold you up They’re much too old , they’re much too rough I’m part of the background Down in the shadow You see my reflection In the water and in the light You can see me now In my darkest hour And you smile C’mon what took so long to fall in love? What took so long to find my heart? What took so long to fall apart? These days have come and gone With so much love and so much hurt But your eyes remain the same They just get deeper, they just get soft And you can see me now In my darkest Hour You smile C’mon what took so long to fall in love? What took so long to find my heart? What took so long to fall apart?
