Lying in bed with you I look at my own little white wrist and remember we're children I've come to live with you playing our days into colorful sirens I willed you to come and someday you would will you make good time will you make good? Lying in bed with you I came alive there's a stitch in my side yeah, I think that I'm human Scalp into skeleton don't think I'd ever been loved while I'm sleeping I give you my blood don't know if I should will you make good time will you make good? Bridge: Over and over I called you to meet me biting my tongue as the hours go creeping velvet suit vagrant promised you would again and again, oh, will you make good? All that I wish for you if I speak true I wish for me, for you do cause you love me and not cause I told you to or cause you should will you make good time will you make good? Waiting all night for you as often I do I do for me without you do cause I love you and not cause you want me to or cause I should will you make good time will you make good? will you make good time will you make good? will you make good time will you make good?

Something died in its sleep knew when I woke up this morning wish I could comfort you tell you there was't any warning Bones, they are always white, how can you tell when they're sallow? How can you know when they'll go and they'll leave you a shadow? Now I am left without form not the shape you all know I am a nebulous space without hangers for my clothes Something's been draining the color from my cheeks something has drawn all the warmth from my sheets wish I could tell you I didn't know that they'd go where they'd go, where they'd go I have been shivering warm in my bed feeling my arms turn from cotton to lead and back twenty times as I wait to rise To turn my back in spite of you who failed to see the fire as I choked in the hanging garden of shoe laces and wires I only ever asked you to be here 'fore I was blue, swollen tongued and red 'round the ears Something's left rotting and heavy in every corner here comes the swarm to devour as the weather gets warmer

Live With Me 04:12
I’ve got an ugly want for you an ugly little dream I’ve got a sugar-lip for you a dirty red sunbeam I’ll give you my seam ripper you can rip me at the seams Live with me, oh live with me there are ugly little homes with ugly families inside ugly little towns with ugly rivers running ‘longside live with me you gotta only wanna live with me I got a honeycomb for you with all the wax left in I got this dirty river I can mollify your sins won’t get you into heaven but it feels good on the skin Live with me, come live with me there are ugly little homes that I can see myself inside ugly little towns where maybe baby you could come hide live with me you gotta tell me that you’ll live with me I’ll build you bricks of sand and spit and burn me in our fire pit and I will keep you warm, oh every night I’ll bite down on your lovely hands we’ll sleep until we’re whole again I’ll never say I’m sorry when we fight Live with me, come live with me there are ugly little homes full of love and full of pride ugly little towns that keep on sinkin’ from the inside live with me you gotta tell me that you’ll live with me live with me, come live with me live with me I know you’ll tell me that you’ll live with me

Oh what knots I have made here a tangle of trailing strings and from the face of the mirror what sin unforgivable sings I cannot be loved the right way I have loved you still to this day of all unforgivable things What a path I have made here A machine of parts unused and at the ledge, at the landing We will all, save you, be bruised I cannot be loved the right way I have loved you still to this day of all unforgivable things of all unforgivable things What a price I will pay when the seeds I’ve sown break through what’s to be reaped just below now from the mines I’ve lain for you I cannot be loved the right way I have loved you still to this day of all unforgivable things of all unforgivable things I cannot be loved the right way I have loved you still to this day of all unforgivable things of all unforgivable things of all unforgivable things

Homeland 04:50
Do you have a homeland? Do you have a river? tell me where your roots grew Did you cut them out did they choke you? Tell me do you love me tell me I don't want to know don't tell me that you miss me when I am silent and alone Where can I lay my head? There's an empty cavern where there was a bed where do I go to rest with a flightless blackbird in my chest? Do you have a country? Do you have any sort of plan? tell me were you sleeping when the homes were razed across your land Are you left with something, orphaned teeth piled in your hands? Will you tend the flowers from my body under sand?
