House Of One
03:53
|

In denseness in the west
There is a house
With just one sign
'Go Away' it says
Hey can't you read
I don't ask much of life
No closer please
My dog's been fed
But still has room to bite
I'm away upstairs
I know
You're right
I'm still living in my house of one
I'm still living in the house of one
I'm still living in the house
I'll let you know
I won't go
I won't go
'Cause I like it here
A pipe
An outdoor light
I got a kitchen
And here's where I lie at night
I don't share it
Go way back when the avenue I knew was evil
I'm still living in the house of one
I'm still living in the house of one
I'm still living in the house

Head Like A River

Head like a river
There's a flood that's spilling to my heart
I made my decision
And now I've got to live with what I said
And I will be around this time
Peace brings a clarity
Yeah and I was wild with thoughts consumed
Now I've got my head in a place
Where I can gravitate to you
I fucked things up the first time round
I know what I have to do now
And I will wait until you're mine
There is a wind
And it brings a voice that I have longed to hear
The sound of the flooding decreases
I believe that the summer's near
And now I know to trust my heart
I know what I have to do now

Alarm Bells
05:10
|
|||
I cast the first stone
I was shaking
I wasn't hunting
But I got beat up
So what did you do
To me when I was bleeding
I stand before you
Still shaking
Wearing my chicken suit
But I won't give you up
So what can I do
To make you see I mean it
Will you get it right before you hurt someone
Get it right before someone hurts you
Yeah you
Will you get it right before he hurts you

Gone A Little Grief
08:44
|
|||
Hey it's over
A witching melody
And easy rhythm
Is settling a feel
An all together sound
A mighty history
Of wild endeavours
That never came to pass
And that doesn't matter now
Hey it's over
Yes it is
It's over
Hey it's over
Well you and I will always live
In times we've thought of
In times we've shared
Well you and I will always live
In songs we've thought of
In songs we've shared
They're wailing in the fields
And on the rivers
They're telling all there is
And gathering around
They're coming from the hills
To be together
And all there rivalries
Well that doesn't matter now
It's over
Hey it's over
Hey it's over
Yes it is

Shoot Away
07:12
|
|||
You're a waste of time
Like a three dollar bill
Good for the river
Good for the river
And if I had my way
You'd be under a landfill
Fit for the soil
Good for the soil
Grab my gun
Hit the summer road
Shoot away
But I'd probably miss you
I'm a waiting line
Pushing shit up hill
There ain't no pint in sinking
No point in sinking
But I'm willing to try
Instead of swallowing pills
Work with me woman
Go on work with me woman
Grab my gun
Hit the summer road
Shoot away
But I'd probably miss you
And when the sun comes up
I'm gonna sell your bag of bones
Shoot, shoot
Shoot 'em up baby
Grab my gun
Shoot away
And baby when the sun comes up
I'm gonna sell your bag of bones
Sell your bag of bones
Gonna sell your bag

Where We Start
04:05
|
|||
I say we start talking
I can stay awake all night
Things haven't been
Quite the same
Since I left that time
You gotta leave baby
Go ahead and find yourself
Why did we go on for so damn long
I don't know why
We got this far didn't we
Far is far enough
Stare at me straight
Honestly I hope you find someone else
But could we be wrong
Wait, wait
Look back one more time
Why did we go on for so damn long
I don't know why
Leave our pieces
Lying where they are
Dead and buried
Is where we start living our lives
This is where we start
