Plea for Reprieve
03:53
|
|||
arm's length from your side prisons powered by pride I know you're fighting your fight but can't you see I'm the knife can't you see i'm the knife cutting all my ties in a quiet careen you think about where you've been things that you should have seen worthless pleas for reprieve cutting all my ties the dust that you had stirred I thought had settled for sure but now the
water is running and the message is blurred the meaning has moved from a vessel disturbed we're without a motive why haven't
you heard the calling has ceased thrown in righteous reverse we won't lift a finger to be counted as dirt

Silver Thumbs
04:12
|
|||
we've decided to assemble a few who can rustle some feathers with simply a thought we're refurbishing
the way this thing reads simply snipping out segments that they didn't mean without warning worries worsen under weight of woe the branch bends do what you want just don't do it near us you're starting to stir up a problem candid are we to speak so comfortably of who we deem to be welcome this myth that we've cautioned is oh such a bargain this myth that we've cautioned is oh such a bargain we'll make them the target we'll make them the target and keep sucking on silver thumbs without warning worries worsen under weight of woe the branch bends do what you want just don't do it near us you're starting to stir up a problem
candid are we to speak so comfortably of who we deem to be welcome

Days of Reversal
04:04
|
|||
head in hands revivals of form drowning while you wait out the storm nauseous with the promise of a return to soot and pregnant with the premise that this was ever any good it's the day of the dog and we're born of the breed it's the year of the young best foot forward bittersweet it's the day of the dog and we're born of the breed it's the year of the young best foot forward bittersweet

Cardinal Direction
03:09
|

in taking pause to peruse an old secret that looms you waste away while it consumes burn the last bit of proof
you've got to bury the truth just show me the map and i'll prove that we're lost the tables have turned and the x marks the spot
we circumnavigate with ease so you suppose fielding questions just to see the length of your pull a place off the path you never
thought you would pass problems from your past poised to attack with one foot in the grave questions beg to be asked
feel the wind in my hair and the axe falling fast broke bread with the beast when we were promised a feast married to the east
but the west pulls at our chests we circumnavigate with ease so you suppose fielding questions just to see the length of your pull was told that this was the last train home but was there ever a first is there somewhere to go where can I hide my hope
to ensure that it grows what once thrived as a part falls short as a whole

Cold Spell
02:15
|
|||
a cold spell is strangling the south just long enough to dig us out from heat waves furrowing our brows and we rely
on this to shoulder ease see production is down to a t we believe we won't have to soil our sleeves a storm cloud is hanging
over now and we rejoice by opening our mouths sling backs the drops dripping down and soak our tongues to keep behind
our teeth see production is down to a t we believe we won't have to soil our sleeves

Ebb Without Flow
05:29
|
|||
there's a silence I stole that started out whole and it knows that I know and it lives in my bones it lives
it lives in my bones and it's rushed to console am i the ungrateful host or is he under control there is no way to know the only
hand I've to hold and so I divulge without a sound and soak it all in to bring about a shift in the scale that renders you pale
are these the words that you wish you heard an apology murmured well you should look further and see the degree to which
you squander please and soak it all in to bring about a shift in the scale that renders you pale are these the words that you
wish you heard an apology murmured well you should look further there's a silence I stole drawing ebb without flow closure
begs at the window the only hand I've to hold

Good Measure
05:31
|
|||
graceless we fall patterned in doubt filled up with fury lusting for the now most silver of spoons rusting in your mouth slurring your speech and slanting it seems so far you've played for keeps justified in making leaps is there a face that I could put on to make you stay these timed terror trials you sway with the parade the angles extend for miles when I'm running my blood race straining to strike but this iron's like ice wrestling with ruin rushed to reconcile each and every move pray that
it's precise true to the form twisting and tied behind your back you'll find that both hands wash each other fine kneeling at this narrow patch of earth moving parts to make the moment work can it be we're only fit to serve falling through the seasons in reverse is there a face that I could put on to make you stay these timed terror trials you sway with the parade the angles extend for miles when I'm running my blood race

Tallest Tale
02:06
|
|||
last drop from the bottomless well with pearls pawned what's the use of a shell take this last sip as a severance rest your revenge for a spell reeling from the hard night that fell tall tales you've been itching to tell just pick a poison your preference
drink up from the bottomless well at wit's end where the fiction is felt false facts are the hardest to sell rest this revenge for a spell tall tales you've been itching to tell

Hold Your Hearses
03:23
|
|||
hold your hearses though it may seem worthless I can foresee a pupose in the the stead of earnesty I'm offering a service that entails a furnace and the quiet purchase of something yet unseen hold your hearses now it's at the
surface I can't bear this burden stark white utterly clean can we finally be certain that what makes you nervous lies beyond the curtain an ending without means unending needs call from deep in the dark waiting for you in the coldest part given we've gathered this grief from afar swoon with the shallow that seeps from our arc the answer croons from the crook of your arm
my focus falters drunk on old charms
