Dreamstate

Garden Wall 01:25
Fever dreams awake the lost bones, Wander quiet through the pines It's a heavy fall, but a blissful state The days we spent afloat Over the garden vines, Over the garden vines It's an easy float, but a distant place The days we spent below Over the garden vines, Over the garden vines

Flores 03:33
I can hear the walls of the old mill creak, Lay down darling, stay while or go on back to greet It's true I said I'd wait a while But the winter's deep And I know you've got some other places, You'd rather be Church tower rings and the steamboats glide Come float across dear, under shifting tides Trees in coats of ice and white And a howling winds a'knock and won't subside Are we still below, On the levy top? Is there some other way to cross? Is there some other way that's not, Through the valley of greed What do we do, when the wharf's shut tight? Breaths and bones, past future sight Flora's tea and stoves, that'll make us fine And a half-moon bless darling, that'll keep us alive Lean back slow, with your hand-made eye Freedom beats quiet, from the churning sky Said you'd rather go, but you ain't gone yet So make up your mind, before the frost it sets Are we still below, On the levy top? Is there some other way to cross? Is there some other way that's not, Through the valley of greed I can hear the walls of the old mill creak, Lay down darling, stay while or go on back to greet It's true I said I'd wait a while But the winter's deep And I know you've got some other places, You'd rather be

Dreamstate 02:24
Dampness of this tiny place A ghost but not afraid Moonshine on my shoulder blades Your serpentine skin Warm up and lean in..
4.
Fins and beaks and tails, Creep out when moon's pale Heave out their boats and nets, Tighten their sails False floors and windpipes And paper cup homes I followed bread trails, 'Cos foolishness is all I know...

If I Was 02:41
..If I was a fortune teller, Needen' ask you for your name Heeding the warnings, Premonitions and speaking of your grave I'd guess your birthday, And your grandmother's grace Illuminous darkness And a soft veiled face Nice up those dusty lots And try our best to fool Getting tired of the circuits, But there's no where left to run So we'll trundle on, And pray for a miracle If I was a tightrope walker, I'd balance on your skin Tip toe round, wouldn't ask where you'd been Hold on, to the ropes secured within If I was a lion tamer I'd join in all your days Travel round and set up, those round reds and caged We'd light up those dusty lots, you know I'd never stay...
6.
..Telescope eyes, you got kaleidoscope mind I hit the ground I just wanna know where I stand, So I can be found..

Darjeeling 02:58
..Rosemary smoke and scented pine I can't tell apparitions from real In these bone moon skies...
9.
Up Late 02:31
It was one of those glorious days, Got the feeling supposed to meet in this place..
10.
..Don't leave the house when lights are out Follow the levy pressure building, As you walk the plank to sleep Bag of words unravell now Wooden floors are creaking softly, End of world is what we see...
11.
Drifters and outcasts all dressed up and clean Cure what ails, with our sadness soaked teeth..
