You have failed me
For the last time
Speak the truth, baby
Even if your voice shakes
She was still here
Like a rushing river
Routed through my home
Routed through my home
Everybody here to see
Watch you fall
A bee will cross the ocean
For a flower
You have failed me
For the last time
Speak the truth, baby
Even if your voice shakes
Everybody here to see
Watch you fall
A bee will cross the ocean
For a flower

Welcome to everyone I’ve ever loved
Even for a heartbeat
They were lying to each other genuine affection
Jangle gypsy tambourine on her hip
Rosalita, won’t you come and dance
Every night I wait to see
Senorita carom into me
There we lingered, hoping for a notion to rise
Searching for our allegory
Preoccupied with the challenges of staying
Jangle gypsy tambourine on her hip
Rosalita, won’t you come and dance
Every night I wait to see
Senorita carom into me

Obtain a life
That would assuage
My previous
Unhappiness
She’s so cold
I know
We are frozen numb
And I have seen
The glacier
Over me
At home on my
Dressing table
Was a holy card
Of the sacred heart
She’s so cold
I know
We are frozen numb
And I have seen
The glacier
Over me
At home on my dressing table was a holy card of the sacred heart of jesus
So the president left his boy in a stone tomb,
And went back to work for the country, for the counry
Your happy families
Are all alike
Unhappy family
At least unique
She’s so cold
I know
We are frozen numb
And I have seen
The glacier
Over me

I have seen you
Guided by lamplight
And I have felt you
Turn at first sight
Come and hold me, baby
The sun went down
Let’s head up to the roof
The stars are low we can reach them from here
My vision’s blurry
But message is clear
Let’s dance until the sun comes up
Don’t care who knows, let’s shout this from the rooftop
We don’t mind
He’s our friend
He can’t dance
And his heart won’t mend
The love of his life is why he bends
The sun went down
Let’s head up to the roof
The stars are low we can reach them from here
My vision’s blurry
But message is clear
Let’s dance until the sun comes up
Don’t care who knows, let’s shout this from the rooftop
We don’t mind
He’s our friend
He can’t dance
And his heart won’t mend
The love of his life is why he bends
The sun went down
Let’s head up to the roof
The sun went down
Let’s head up to the roof
The stars are low we can reach them from here
My vision’s blurry
But message is clear
Let’s dance until the sun comes up
Don’t care who knows, let’s shout this from the rooftop

Blessed be
Who would just give me a clean drink of water
I can see
Those handshakes behind my back
And here I thought I was the only one that has this dream
Thanking people for things I never asked for
And as I woke up to see
Show me the way, Show me the way
If this is up to me
I am reeling, and I’m stealing
A great wind
That tore the roofs off houses
A great wind
Slashed their flags to ribbons
When fate hands down to posterity, it’s behind its back
Those winks you don’t see, those are the shadows of their bombs
And as I woke up to see
Show me the way, Show me the way
If this is up to me
I am reeling, and I’m stealing

Opted for the life of the purposefully unrushed
Bounced from job to job, and never set sail
We go
Deeper, into the water
It was easier when we believed in mermaids
Life made more sense, when we felt less shame
My funeral suited friend from Pennsylvania
Asked if I was tired of being in the way
We go
Deeper, into the water
It was easier when we believed in mermaids
Life made more sense, when we felt less shame
We go
Deeper, into the water
It was easier when we believed in mermaids
Life made more sense, when we felt less shame

Never more powerful
As I left this world
I took a look back
Saw you hanging on to my shell
I’m not there any more
I’ll find you again
Where we end up next
My arms will be open
When you emerge from that light
I’m the same boy you knew
I said I felt cold
And you held me again
We were lucky to get old
And find the edge of the world
It’s just the way that I smile
There was a bone-chilling firesound
As it whisked me away
A rush of energy and light
I found my way home to you here
I’ll be waiting for you, dear
After all of these years
The matterlightbloomed
And held both of us
And held both of us right here

You’re so uneasy
With your own beauty
You come
On strong
Then go
It seemed impossible
That she needed, needed for anything
He started showing up
And we knew, that something something needed to be done
It never dawned on her
That she was leading
Leading
Him on
So wrong
It seemed impossible
That she needed, needed for anything
He started showing up
And we knew, that something something needed to be done
Look I know that this sounds crazy now
But you gotta listen somehow and you’ll see
That’s he’s in love with you and you know what to do
Let him down
Easy
Everybody knows what he thinks of you
He’ll keep loving you until he sees
You don’t love him now, and you won’t again
Let him down
Easy

The body, the cage
The cost of this wage
Hide my worthless, I’m done
If you tell
We drop down this well
And remind each other that we’re here
I wish you’d see
The sweetness in my deceit
Up to me
The truth will only fail you
Exhume the body
And provide an identity
Lies are kindness
I decided to deceive you
You can’t carry on
An argument with a whisper
Drip the poison into their ears
Elaborately insincere
In his congratulations
No one hates me more than me
Exhume the body
And provide an identity
Lies are kindness
I decided to deceive you

You are one with your God
The sun sets on this new turn
The angels and prophets will call
Mecca and Medina light the way
The oneness of God, we are the same
History would make a new turn
Day of resurrection
The angels and prophets will call
Mecca and Medina light the way
The oneness of God, we are the same
This blood won’t wash off your hands
No matter who selected you
No matter who
Selected by your God
The angels and prophets will call
Mecca and Medina light the way
The oneness of God, we are the same
This blood won’t wash off your hands
No matter who selected you
No matter who
