Lyrics:

FIGHT

I fought them all
It never ends
I keep tight and
My wonder is less
Oh Oh why
I'm questioning
I'll never ask
So you can sleep in
Your perfect address
Oh Oh why
You can look inside
This calling curse
The lines are drawn
This is getting worse
Oh Oh why
Now I can tell
Your looking now
One comes one comes
To find us out
Oh Oh why


BROKEN BONES

She was merged she was thin
The case was wide open
I see a heart on her shoulder
With his first name written

CHORUS
And what do lately
Consider to be yourself?
With your outsize hands
Your molten breath

October is the month
We'll pray for the summer
When trees are branching
A long distant murmur

CHORUS

So keep writing her name
So it's setting in stone
You'll live in the shadow
Of these broken bones


JOHNNY CASH

You began a search
I know many have tried
Not a blind man among you
For years let fate decide
So swallowed and followed and played through start to end
With the good weight all carried by your faithful friend

She wrote you a song and you bought a wedding dress
Having handsome bite buxom
Have insured people met
Then sundry and nocturnal
You lay your peace to sleep
With your new loves good fortunes
And secrets safe to keep

CHORUS
What will await you
Can tether no more
What's shrunken withers
In the path to your door
Repeat


BLOOD

With the same eyes as me
The same fearing frame
We can try and disguise
Compromise rights
And I know what you're thinking
We wear the same dress
The same colours right
Is this what suits our weakened pride?
How do I know cos you're my blood

With the kinks and wires like me
The same fearing frame
We can run and hide
See the signs
Call to no-one
Taste with the same tongue
Swelling up inside
We can speak and re-sign
What's yours is mine
Blood


START TO END

There is nothing left to prove
We'll stand on our heads
And shake out the news
Silently we go down
Never hand in hand
It's my design

And when words are failing
I'm useless yet I continue in
What has passed
Can never end
I close my door to everyone

CHORUS
From start to end
We'll start again

Forever now
I've been allowed
To be the last voice in the cold background
It's one step over
One lesson learned
And you hold in your hand
My design

(Chorus to end)


LA LUNE

It only took a glance
Of fortune or guess
A little drumming boy
Was beating in my chest

CHORUS
La La La

Is this a competition?
I'm definitely winning
Because two by two
They came through
And one in everyone
Fits a million

Chorus

You keep on holding back
Can't break it to yourself
That your life is nothing
But the fear's making sense
The fear's making sense
Chorus


AWKWARD DUET

Your complexion
My reaction
Stumbling phrasing
Awkward duet

CHORUS
Consequences
Lines of contract
Sentencing the one word answer
Half a whispered word of contest
You sing verse and I sing chorus

Your confession
My reaction
Made for two
Only works with half
Chorus
