Collapsing Ice
01:20

|
like the sky above the water
pulling me down
metal skin and arm
fire false alarm
when the crops were burned
metal skin and arm
fire false alarm
after that I learned

Midnight Special
00:53
|
|||
|
when you wake up in the morning
hear the big bell ring
march over to the table
see the sale damn thing
a knife and fork are on the table
but nothing in my pan
if you say anything about it
you're in trouble with the man
let the midnight special
shine her light on me
let the midnight special
shine her ever loving light on me

Mighty (sorcerer)
01:20
|
|||
|
high and mighty
the pieces rewind forever
set in nothing
like vanishing smoke
high and mighty
extending below me
high and mighty
like hailstorm and curse
opening fields
wooden tools with no blades
sometimes in the dark
unimagined picture of the sky
grey white wine
that carries away
the angry crowds
it is horrible (everywhere around us)

|
moving swiftly towards the fences
where the action always happens
never doubting
pulling into caves
moving under
old distraction
now there is no contemplation
suddenly the sky is dark and cloudy
do you have a choice to make or
voices speaking with conviction
there is nowhere
left to be more
underwhelming
underestimated
underwhelming place

with sound and smoky air
he had rubies in his hair

Tile and Metal
02:36
|
|||
|
what I feel through the floor
tile and metal
what I feel through the ceiling
when I'm standing
metal on metal
and it is twisting around the shapes they are twisting around
and I am twisting around
and the ads never say
where they're going
and the voices are spinning
and declining
where are they going
and they are turning around
the shapes they are turning around
and I am turning around
what they never had any doubts?

Island
01:42
|
|||
|
island
made of stone
hiding in it
dangerous predators
they are watching
on waves crashing
for survivors
for survivors
they want to kill us
they want to eat us
the survivors
the survivors
they are staring
through the cracks
in the island
at the ocean

Lightning Bolt
01:38
|

|
underwater underground
lightning bolt
feel my room
are you smiling
in my tomb
lightning bolt
set me down
underwater underground
lightning bolt
hear my words
they are nothing
they are heard

Terrorbird & Army Life
03:23
|

|
terror bird terror bird takes me back
terror bird terror bird takes me back
I remember I remember birds in cages
I remember I remember empty eyes
I remember I remember flying ones
I remember I remember long legs
I remember I remember empty eyes
terror bird
terror bird
the money that they give you
they said it was mighty fine
give you fifty dollars and they
take back forty nine
I don't want no more
army life
keeper I want to go home
