On Your Way
01:37
|
|

maybe you were on your way
when someone stole all of your money
I don't know anything
but that was so long ago
a frozen boulder rolling in the snow
I will guide you home

I Don't Know Why
03:54
|
|
||
|
I don't know why
we got older
you get taller
winds get colder
did I break all
of your monies
it wasn't like that
breadcrumb crawl back
jesus christ
not my eyes
had a baby
not my eyes
this cannot ever change
this cannot ever change
closed my eyes
so you can't see me
bit my tongue
now we don't speak
I must say
I still see your moonface
with the light out
you're still bright out
this cannot ever change

Copper

Copper is the color of my true love's hair
it was spun from the sun when she took me there
radiant ripples in the gloaming glow
the sun was setting on her brow
and oh if you hear me sigh
she doesn't love me and I don't know why
I gave her the moon but she wanted the sky
no maybe yes maybe not

When She Let It In
01:42
|
|

|
When she let it in oh she got sick
now she's broken at my knees
when she let it in oh she got sick
now she's filled with foul disease
I tried all my best to get your lovely letter in
but the mailman here comes just once a week
and the little bit of alcohol
you took with you to Capaha
has left you broke and bloody at my knees
rub it out
burn it in
what we've got is too good to mention

Ember
02:48
|
|
||
|
She sat in my mind like an ember
like a pile of leaves getting bigger
watch for when the wave breaks
pretty soon you'll see it building
I tried my best to keep all to myself
but you took me and left me alone
maybe you had me all from the start
that's when I knew that I had to get gone
the thermometer showing ominously
the pile of leaves burst into flame
the backyard was covered in light
it would stay that way till the following night
she got up in my thumb like a splinter
if she's ever pushed out I'll feel hollow inside
she touched my cheekbone like winter
if I ever warm up I will thaw out and die
