How Is Your Heart?
06:07
|

Sometimes at night you walk the streets
Like you’re a character on some old movie screen
You say ‘How come every one I see
Seem like they have it figured out except for me?’
So, how is your heart?
Well lay down your arms
And don’t worry now, don’t worry now
I know it’s not working out, it’s not working out
Some times it’s dawn before you sleep
And your only covers are your shrouds of misery
So darling is it time to leave?
Well I hate to know that that’s the only light you see
So, how is your heart?
Well lay down your arms
And don’t worry now, don’t worry now
I know it’s not working out, it’s not working out
So, you light another cigarette
And hope that it will finally let your soul forget
And float away in rings of smoke
Well I just hope you’ll say goodbye before you go
So, how is your heart?
Well lay down your arms
And don’t worry now, don’t worry now
I know it’s not working out, it’s not working out
But don’t worry now, don’t worry now
I know it’s not working out, it’s not working out
But don’t leave me now, don’t you leave me now
I know it’s not working out, it’s not working out
But you can work it out

V

V, if you'd like to travel
Where will we turn? Where will we go?
What's left for a couple of angel rebels
Without a home?
And see if our plans unravel
Before we both fell, before we come down
Am I still just a lukewarm carousel
Spinning around?
V, this whole world's a gamble
The red or the black, the high or the low
Everything's a roulette wheel left spinning
Out of control
It's easy to take for granted
The battles we lost, the war that we won
Cause it's been such a long time since I've felt
Sure of someone
Believe
We're free
V, when we came alive
All of our blood, and all our bones
And all that we've tried just to make things whole
And make things right
Believe that we'll come alive
The blue moon shines in the dead of night
And all of our blood and bones are safe inside
Our blood and bones are left behind
Believe
We're free
Believe
We're free

We Are Where We Are
05:22

Make up your mind
The one you choose
The one you leave behind
Oh honey, what if we find
there's a tattoo of our names on either side?
Lay down the ones
That never rise for either one of us
Oh honey, what have you done?
There's a candle lit where you were once
And it feels..
And it feels..
Like we are ready
To fill up the earth inside our graves
Until we run
Into the garden
And find out we start and end
Exactly where we are
In our heads
Look out below
Cause we've lost our grip on any kind of love
Oh honey, what do we know?
Are we permanently on our own?
And it feels...
And it feels...
Like we are ready
To fill up the earth inside our graves
Until we run
Into the fire
And burn up in flames that light our way
Until we run
Into the garden
And find out we start and end
Exactly where we are
In our heads
In our heads

Act of Breaking
03:35
|
|||
After all the shattered walls that start to fall and break for me
Are wearing me out
Well I was a lot like your friend, a lot like your friend
And wearing you around
After all the alcohol, the final crawls that call for me
Are wearing me down
Well I was a lot like the end, a lot like the end
Before we begin
But wait, I could have changed
I’m trying to feel my life’s refrain
And caught in the act of disguising my name
But it will not be the act of breaking down
After all the empty space you violate and break for me
And carry me down
Well I was a lot like your man, a lot like your man
A lot like your man
And then we break down
But wait, I could have changed
I’m trying to feel my life’s refrain
And buried in cycles that spin 'round your brain
And carry a lie like some secret shame
But there is a time for us still to create
To fill the blank canvas, the empty space
And we’re caught in the act of disguising our names
But it will not be the act of breaking down

I've invented a maneuver
Well at the moment, it's more like a gesture
But I'm trying
Hey, are you choking on something?
If you are choking
I could save you with my maneuver
I ain't lying
Hilda, wake up
Hilda, wake up
Hilda, wake up
And come and check out my maneuver
I've invented a maneuver
Well at the moment, it's slightly more like a gesture
But I'm trying
Hey, are you choking on something?
If you are choking
I could save you with my maneuver
So you ain't dying
Hilda, wake up
Hilda, wake up
Hilda, wake up
And come and check out my maneuver
Well, they call me Dr. Heimlich
I'm Dr. Heimlich, and I made a manuever
I ain't lying
Hey are you choking on something?
If you are choking on that big thing
I could save you
With my funky maneuver
Hilda, wake up
Hilda, wake up
Hilda, wake up
And come and check out my maneuver

Destruction Song
06:21
|
|||
Well, take me as you want, baby
Hold me like a child in your bed
All warm and wild and full of dread
And we’ll rule the Nile
Well, sing me like a song, baby
Let up on the reins and set me free
Or lock these chains and lose the key
And fuel the flames
Well, I told you I was bad breaks, and stomach aches
And churns and quakes and shakes
And I’ll make you cry again
Well, I’m gonna lie again
Well, I told you I was bad news, and worn-out shoes
And waking, walking blues
And I’ll just make you cry again
Well, I’m gonna lie again
Do you really wanna come in here?
Cause I can’t let you in
And I could never show you what you want to feel real joy
But then you really haunt my dreams, and impart to me
So desperately how much you need to be destroyed
Well, I destroy
These roots of the tree
They grow wild and they cover both you and me
After hours, sneaking round in the cemetery
Where we buried our love
Well, these roots of the tree
They grow out and they cover us so wild and free
While we were K-I-S-S-I-N-G
And we fell from above
Well, I told you I was bad breaks, and stomach aches
And churns and quakes and shakes
And I want you to lie again
I want you to lie again
Well, I told you I was bad news, and worn-out shoes
And waking, wandering blues
And I want you to lie again
I want you to lie again
Do you really wanna come in here?
Cause I can’t let you in
And I could never give you what you want in your employ
But then you really haunt my dreams, and impart to me
So desperately how much you need to be destroyed
Well, me,
Well I destroy, I destroy, I destroy
Ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba
These shells from the sea
They are really just pieces of you and me
Pieces of the people we used to be
This is a yard full of bones
These shells from the sea
They are really just broken pieces of me
Of the man that I tried and I failed to be
This is a yard full of bones
I can hear it calling me
I can hear it calling me
I can hear it calling me
Calling me back home
I can hear it calling me!
I can hear it calling me!
I can hear it calling me
Calling me back home!
Do you really wanna come in here?
Cause I can’t let you in
And I could never show you what you want to feel real joy
But then you really haunt my dreams, and impart to me
So desperately how much you need to be destroyed
Well, me,
Well, I destroy, I destroy, I destroy, I destroy, I destroy
Ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba

All The Rain
07:15
|
|||
The night of the storm
You were left landed
And stranded and waiting to go
The rain in your eyes
The pane of my window
The old pair of boots by the door
There's a cold wind that settles the score
There's a lie that we tell when we're born
Crying out through the night
Turning dark into light
Pouring rain till it's strangely well-worn
They opened the skies
And I couldn't save you
But I couldn't leave you alone
The water's inside
It's seeped through the window
And settled in streams on the floor
There's a wild wave the washes ashore
There's a lie that we write when we're old
Calling out through the night
Pulling dark from the light
Pouring rain till it's taken its toll
And the flood
That is drowning them out
Washes us
And all we've wanted right now
But I'm afraid of what I might become
Ooh
Gimme all the rain
Gimme all the rain
The smell of the storm
While you were left waiting
Debating the life you let go
There's a cold wind that settles the score
There's a lie that we tell to be sure
Crying out through the night
Turning dark into light
Pouring rain till we're drained to the core
And the flood
In the wake of the storm
Washes us
I've never wanted it more
But I'm ashamed of what I might become
Ooh
Gimme all the rain
Gimme all the rain

Dreamless
03:47
|

Sleepless and dreamless
At the end of another day
My mind went to pieces
When you went so far away
Come morning...
How long do we wait
For the dreams to come?
Cause I don't know where
All the days have gone
I'm laying in wait
And it takes so long
How long do we wait to dream?
Silence and sleeping
And all the sounds of another night
Sleeping and dreaming
Can't be find 'til you find
The bright light burning...
How long do we wait
For the dreams to come?
I'm lost in the daze
Of the days all gone
I'm laying awake
And the night's too long
How long do we wait to dream?
How long do we wait to dream?
How long do we wait to dream?
