They hate us and we hate them
Trying to find my way again
Cut a hole in the night

You can't live in a burnt down house
Afraid of being found out
Burn the hair off your face

Now that I watch from a smaller hole (?)
You couldn't see what you didn't know
A lion in his name

Behind fake bars at the age of four
The fear in their eyes
It's what they, what they paid for

Lion face boy
Don't you waste your time?
Searching for a home

Sleep on the floor everyday,
wake at night as more frightened eyes,
chase away sleep.

Tomorrow another place
But the same day
?????

Lion face boy
Don't you waste your time
Searching for a home

. . .


The fire died down
Carried it there into the house
Unclose your eyes
Let it all glow

One day this body will break,
One day these hands will shake.

I'm watching the grass glow
Shining through the dead leaves
Arched back and slow
Your plow in the snow

So let it all glow,
While the fire dies down.

Your clothes they have grown since I saw you last.
Summer makes us all into a soft knife in your hands.
Twist it into my skin
Wire to our cells?

One day our body will break,
One day our hands will shake.

Summer lightening spit me out
Onto the wet grass
Climb onto its back
Your smile, broken glass
Cold hands following down
No one's left warm

So let it all glow,
While the fire dies down.

Fire dies down
build a home in the ground
Let light in through the holes in the ceiling
Something to believe in

Let it all glow
Your name on fire and snow

One day our bodies will break,
One day our hands will shake.

. . .


I went looking for a ghost in me.
Now I can see, now we can see,
where we are finally I can sing hard.
Touch your face with the length of your palm.

I'll build you a fire
I'll build you a fire if you sing in the night falling down.

I'll build you a fire

I went looking for a ghost in me.
Now I can see, now I can see in dreams.
I'll build you a fire.
I'll build you a fire if you sing in the night getting high(?)

I'll build you a fire.

They when looking for a stone in me.
Pull it out of my skin, till I see.
Where I should be, how I should feel.
So I'll build you a fire
I'll build you a fire if you sing in the night you'll be all right.

I'll build you a fire.

your teeth too big for your mouth,
every summer we'd pull the stinger out

drinking like our parents did,
drunk out the dance I know you'd hid
picture of her eyes under your skin
she wasn't old enough to let love in.

I can see your eyes turn blue,
I can see the weather changing you
cold summers one after the other
got old fast grew tired of each other.

born across from your house
sleepless child, falling down
it's getting harder to find it in me
bite my lip, fall asleep
but now, ?????
falling down
fill in, fill in the empty

and she could sing to shipmen
I lay my eyes on you
down where we'd be lost, find your mouth
winter skin.

it's getting harder to find it in me
strap my boots, fall asleep
?????? and me.
falling down
fill in , fill in the empty

. . .


We got married while you were asleep
Carved our names out with your wooden teeth
And in the night time we'll act like thieves
I tried my best to wash the (bed of leaves?)


So count the leaves in the yard
One for each year that I've been away

We got married while you were asleep
Carved out names out in our old oak tree
You never wanted me to be all that I could be
She heard me singing and ran away with me

So count the leaves
in the oak tree
One for each day
That I've been away
Been away

?????
?????

You got married while I was asleep
?????
but it didn't cut too deep
Now I don't care where you've been
I just hope I never
See you again

I will come home if you just ask me
I will come home and let love in

. . .


Saw you had a nosebleed, darling.
dancing along the (rows?? road?)
Took your pale hand and shake it.
But you said you'd never dance alone.

I followed you over the forest floor
So we get married (?)

Took your pale hand and shake it. (?)
But the -

Put on your leafmask and let the night die.
You'd rather climb trees than sing with me.
Put on your leafmask and let the light out.
Let the day bleed through your nose.
Took your pale hand and shake it.
But you said you'd rather sing alone.

. . .


With a softship, didn't know where I was going
We'll always find a way,
Let you know my blood is flowing

You see right through her heart
To keep from showing
When my heart is glowing
It kept us awake all night
Hoping that one day we might, sing together

And I rose up
With the waves in the water
And I rose
With the waves in the water

I tore up the forest
Didn't fear anything at all
I'll always find a way
Take you apart, put you back together
Put my name into her eyes
To keep from falling
Out of the stars

And I rose up
With the waves in the water
And I rose
With the waves in the water

. . .


Morning dreams
You and me
Brittle sticks in skin

Crooked teeth
The autumn leaves
My heart just caved in

We fell off the roof
I'll never close my eyes for you

Through your knives up into ?????
Crooked teeth
A spider bites
Broken I don't care

It's left for days
In the same place
Put on our heads
And my face

????? Made of old clothes
Crotches from old bones

Wash the blood off in the sea
?????

We fell off the roof
I'll never close my eyes for you

Morning dreams
You and me
Brittle sticks in skin

Crooked teeth
The autumn leaves
My heart just caved in

We fell off the roof
I burnt that house down for you

. . .


Your clothes always bought them too big.
"One day they'll fit", but they never did.
Splintered and growing, at the same time.
You'll pull me up, when I drag myself down.

Warm blood(?) tied to me
Once they flower(?)
But they dream.
The bird that woke you,
is falling asleep.
The grass under your knees,
once soft now moulding(?).

So kiss those crooked, crooked teeth.
I know you wanna leave.
Just float those bad thoughts away from me.

Swim back where -
You get it from your fathers side.
When the dreams wont come.(?)
Always part of me, telling me to go,
when i know i should stay.
Just float those hands away.

So kiss those crooked, crooked teeth.
I know you wanna leave.
Just float those hands away from me.

. . .


In winters eyes, you are mine.
Red eyes (?)
and meet me again.(?)

I follow you, with my, eyes closed.
I might find a way.
What will be will, be.

I go I go I go with you
we fall down, start over new
I look i look into your eyes
- spirit on fire
and everything changes you know as well as i

so let the years pass slowy by
- the way i do

I follow you with my eyes closed
shine a light where it's -
take you home you have nothing
pick your dreams from the stream (?)
I follow you with my eyes closed
dream you can't sleep
everything changes you know as well as I
so let the years pass slowly by

everytime you close your eyes
fall down you and I

I go I go I go with you
we fell down, start over new

I follow you with my eyes closed.
we will see you cant swim.
I know winter will never look at you the way I do.

Everything changes you know as well as I.
So let the years pass slowly by.

. . .
