Broken Drum

|

|
Your love beats me like a broken drum
When you call I feel like the race is won
His hand slips beneath the waiting waves
On your thigh right in front of Hope's lost gaze
Down and down and down and down I go
Where those waters flow
Give me something to fill that hole
Hold me then never ever hold me close
All my love on nothing but a memory's ghost

Maru

Maru, I can’t see inside of you
I can’t see the way you tick
The way you sleep at night
Maru, the blood it washes from your lips
The tender flesh and twisted kicks
The bruises out of sight
Don’t pity me
Cos I’m too scared to let you see
The power you have over me
I’m not like you Maru
Maru, are you hiding in plain sight?
Is it some violent delight?
That keeps your eyes so cold
Maru, the animal inside of you
Screams into the endless night
Children shiver in their sleep
I know it’s real
It’s written in the way I feel
The apathy and pain appeal
You're killing me Maru

My Lifestyle Of Leisure
03:07

I see them walking talking slipping by my door
I’d love to open up and tell them I want more
Since I found out that I am not the chosen one
This little life of mine it don’t seem so much fun
Tongue tied rewind I’m blind there’s a Martian at my door
He asks to see what life is like upon this shore
I’d love to show him but I cannot spare the time
I’ve got another nether portal I must mine
My lifestyle of leisure
My lifestyle of pleasure
It’s getting late to realise there’s nothing there
Too slow too lazy too obsessed by my own pain
I need a bag of pills to help me with the shame
In this new world you’re gonna have to punch some wood
But in the real I don’t know if I ever could

Noah's Song
01:56
|

Noah
It’s time
For you to go to bed
And rest your weary head
So I
Reach my
Hands into the air
Leaving contrails everywhere
And I don’t know a star from a satellite
But you don’t care as long as I’m here tonight
Starlight
Fills my
Eyes with ancient light
I can’t keep up this fight
Noah
Why the
Fuck are you awake?
It’s getting really late

Is It Odd?
02:14
|
|||
|
Is it odd?
Is it odd or irrational?
Do I long?
Do I long like rivers run?
Into the sea
To see your face
Again
Again
Are you living?
Are you living in denial?
Are you breathing?
Are you breathing in the bile?
Laying on
The bathroom floor
Again
Again
Mary waits for someone to care
Someone to care
Do you love?
Do you love in black and white?
Do you rage?
Do you rage against the dying of the light?
There’s no more fight
Again
Again

Grave Situation
02:08
|
|||
|
All my love washed away
It drains through the soil today
The black of the lot
The rain and the plot
I don’t think it’s going away
It’s a grave situation
We’re falling apart
And everyone’s leaving alone
And you tell me you love me
But that doesn’t start
To fill up the cracks in my home
Sandwiches, faces and gin
Tuck the emotions within
You cannot forget
The pain or the debt
Yet wishing it gone is a sin

Wanderer

Wanderer
I’ve travel every endless sea
To be with her
I’ve sacrificed a million dreams
I’ll take my place
Beneath her all enfolding wings
We’ll leave this Earth
And take our place among the stars
Cos I know her
And she knows me
Wanderer
There’s not a thing that you could do
To keep me here
This vessels lot has come undone
But I know her
And she knows me
