Track Name: Father May I [demo]
Father May I

all the vicious in the wind
come and burn like salt
all the fire in the inn
grows even in the fall
hell’s on your wings
and it’s all in love
all the finer things i do now

Father why
father may i go home
she’s already gone twice
and still i can’t let go
with one arm
woman

with a face like these
i might need you around
you look enough like me
to keep alive but now
now nobody would know
nobody would know
nobody would know
nobody would know

Track Name: 55,000 [demo]
55,000

Well I'm fit to find all the more reasons i've got to adore you
but i've got 55,000 or more reasons left not to care
now all of my treasonous thoughts tell me i should ignore you
because i've 55,000 or more not-so-delicate fears

She said he's gorgeous when he forgets that he's beautiful
how that kills me to know that you know it
so sit, sit down and wait for another moment to pass me by
so I won't have to do nothin

Well I'm fit to find all the more reasons i've got left to need you
but i've 55,000 or more voices calling me out
and all of the evil ones tell me that i shouldn't believe you
but all of the weak ones just tell me to run to you now, run to you now

cause she said he's gorgeous when he forgets that he's beautiful
how that kills me to know that you know him
so sit, sit down and wait for another moment to pass you by
so you won't have to do nothing

but don't close your back door, don't waste all your time
i might never be that good, but i'll never be that easy
so don't close your back door, don't waste all your time
though i move a little slow, still i'll never be that easy

Track Name: Signal [demo]
Signal

i never was a pastor but i used to preach
i still do but i used to to rest in peace
now i try not to give out too much free advice
at when i drink and think i’m a ghoul..

i don’t have time enough time in a day
but i’d die if i had anymore time anyways
cause more time means more time to waste
and i’m afraid my time is already gone

i never save money cause it all goes straight
to the rent and the food and calls that i make
i think about this and the days to come
will i ever have more than just enough to get by?

i don’t have time enough time in a day
but i’d die if i had anymore time anyways
cause more time means more time to waste
and i’m afraid my time is already gone

i never save money cause it all goes straight
to the rent and the food and calls that i make
i think about this and the days to come
will i ever have more than just enough to get by?

and if i need to change part of my life
i can’t see through the trees in my eyes
i am all i need
to hear a signal to be a signal
Track Name: Strength & Resolve [demo]
i’m in love and with strengthened resolve
heaven knows i’ve been one
holding my tongue
but the safety is off
the floor has been opened
open to call
i’ve been young
i’ve been drinking it all in
if it goes to my head
just call it off
leading me on and
if it flows in my wounds
well then

you

i’m in love
i’ve been feeling so low and
if it goes to my head
it’s been won

but the safety is off
the floor has been opened
open to call
i’ve been young
i’ve been drinking it all

and it seems to go on and on...

and it goes to my heels
darling you

Track Name: Apple [demo]
Apple

you are an apple and i am mandaline
you have brought me to the doors again, found

you are the cat and i’m the dying rat you leave
that looks to good, another gift you put down

i am a window where you are blowing leaves around me
when you’ve got the keys to get by

so go and tear your wings if i am bound to leave
i’m leaving home, forgetting you to find a way today
i’m writing home

you are a candle i am carpet underneath
you’ve spilt upon but can’t afford to replace

i am the sand brushed off the outside of your jeans
but i am trapped inside your pocket space

you are the moment that is fallen into sync
from some alarm that triggered from a parked car

and it’s been tripped and floating in rhythm and in sync
moving in the air around my heart

you are the dust that’s floating weightless on the breeze
as you collect you make the edges look soft

i am the feather so obsessed with keeping clean
but stop and hesitate at brushing you off

you are an apple...

Track Name: Holiday [demo]
Holiday

on the days that we were out wild
with hardly enough to buy bread
we were hazed by the night’s style
and rudely thrown out of our bed

followed on our walk
late for the road we were on
in the snow all around us
soaked all the way down to our bones

she’s just a holiday
one you could
easily steal me away

narrow, the eyes are
late to the show we arrived
she could tell when she saw us
we came from the outside
the other side

she’s just a holiday
one you could
easily steal me away from

Track Name: One-Fingered Glove [demo]
One-Fingered Glove

Bordered by hundreds of other places where none would aim
one fingered glove to the exit
Are there more tongues to come gonna run away from the one to say
conquer the guards (gods) of our progress
But stones on a plate we are shuddering away, in the
pitch-shifting hum of abundance
While cold iron dangerous waves of distortion lay
smoldering waste to our conscience

Bordered by hundreds of other places where none would aim
one fingered glove to the exit
Are there more tongues to come gonna run away from the one to say
conquer the guards gods of our progress
But stones on a plate we are shuddering away, in the
pitch-shifting hum of abundance
While cold iron dangerous waves of distortion lay
smoldering waste to our conscience

Golden in the arms of a raised up alarm that sway
forward and motion us upwards
Over your own heart lay patience upon as a
blanket of warmth for the process
For the moment awaits for your bones to awaken as
slowly as chaste as you'd want them
'Cause the only real way to get out of this place is say
all you are god (3x)

Bordered by hundreds of other places where none would aim
one fingered glove to the exit
Are there more tongues to come gonna run away from the one to say
conquer the guards (gods) of our progress
But stones on a plate we are shuddering away, in the
pitch-shifting hum of abundance
While cold iron dangerous waves of distortion lay
smoldering waste…
Conscience is consciousness slowly erased (x4)
