1.Tidal Wave
Lyricist:Husky Gawenda
Writer(s):Husky Gawenda
I climbed aboard a tidal wave
Bearing down upon the city from the ocean
They said it would come any day
Like a monster of perpetual devotion
I was surfing it clear
I was crashing through the city streets
Where we once went looking for love
I'd change my name if I had one to change
I'd change the world if I wasn't so plain
I see your eyes in my eyes suddenly
I was driving through the open plains
When I came upon a white horse grazing
There was nothing around but him and me
And the lights up in the night sky blazing
I was riding him clear
We went riding through the same old streets
Where I once went looking for love
I'd change my name if I had one to change
I'd change the world if I wasn't so plain
I see your eyes in my eyes suddenly
I climbed aboard a tidal wave
Bearing down upon the city from the ocean
They said it would come any day
Like a monster of perpetual devotion
I was surfing it clear
Crashing through the city streets
Where I once went looking for love
2.Fake Moustache
Lyricist:Husky Gawenda
Writer(s):Husky Gawenda
Going to heaven with a fake moustache
Going to try my luck in the clouds
My heart's getting used to this whiplash
I'm letting go, take my hand quickly
Wonder what it's like on the other side
If green pastures wait for me there
My head's a lion, my heart is a butterfly
I gotta go, I gotta go quickly
I'm not used to her violence
I never knew anyone so beautiful in her silence
I never knew anyone at all
Buried is my stone heart
Beneath the dust of an age
I'm not used to this girl, no
I wasn't built for this world, I'm slipping
In her kitchen making me strip slow
Wants to see what I am made from
Wants to feel me play with her heart strings
She gotta know, she gotta go quickly
There's a tiger asleep in my bedroom
I'm in the garden shaking with fear
Morning clouds look just like a highway
I gotta go, I gotta go quickly
I'm not used to her violence
I never knew anyone so beautiful in her silence
I never knew anyone at all
Buried is my stone heart
Beneath the dust of an age
I'm not used to this girl, no
I wasn't built for this world, I'm slipping
I'm not used to her violence
I never knew anyone so beautiful in her silence
I never knew anyone at all
Buried is my stone heart
Beneath the dust of an age
I'm not used to this girl, no
I wasn't built for this world, I'm slipping
Going to heaven with a fake moustache
Going to try my luck in the clouds
My heart's getting used to this whiplash
I'm letting go, take my hand quickly
3.History's Door
Lyricist:Husky GawendaGideon Preiss and Evan Tweedie.
Writer(s):Husky GawendaGideon Preiss and Evan Tweedie.
Two hearts burning
On a hillside turning
Round the blazing sun
Fever burning
In her head that's turning
Round the things she's done
Free your heart
That is the hardest part,
He says, Your heart won't lie.
Find your hope forget your home
Heed that feeling in your bones
For your heart knows you'll never win
Until you're free from him
Don't look back
There is no use in wondering
Just how or why
If you leave now
You might just make it home
Before the morning light
Tired and poor
You kneel at history's door
Tonight
Find your hope forget your home
Heed that feeling in your bones
For your heart knows you'll never win
Until you're free from him
Wooh ahhh ohhh
Find your hope forget your home
Heed that feeling in your bones
For your heart knows you'll never win
Until you're free from him
Wooh ahhh ohhh
4.The Woods
Lyricist:Husky Gawenda
Writer(s):Husky Gawenda
I went walking in the woods today
Found a path that led me astray
I couldn't leave it
On the bank of a river beneath the trees
I stripped down naked and fell to my knees
I washed my sins away
Morning came and gave the truth away
I wondered if I'd ever return
But as you say, time will pave the way
I just sit and watch our kingdom burn
I went walking in the woods tonight
Trees looked wicked by candlelight
I heard them whispering your name
Far away I saw the city lights
The dreams of mankind burning bright
It was so beautiful
Morning came and took my fear away
I wondered if I'd ever learn
But how will we explain the mistakes we made
When my fear will surely return
I went walking on my own and
Bright eyed spirits guided me home
I went walking in the woods today...
5.Hunter
Lyricist:Husky Gawenda
Writer(s):Husky Gawenda
Come now sister don't you wait for the sky to clear
I have never seen it rain so truly
Let's find somewhere to sleep this bus stop's sinking like a
pier
They can wait till morning or a week, or two
I came here not for love but for the possibility
Of setting free the love we knew for all of time
Don't you remember I said that I would not forget
Your memory is safe with me
And you're heavenly
The strangest things come to me in my sleep
Climb the rolling hills ever so steep
And I don't recognize you, nor you me
Still we know each other so well
I will be the hunter and you can light the fire
Keep it burning until I return
As darkness falls I'll prove it in time to you
All the way to whaler's cove, the country side and me
Every little thing still in its place
If it were that I was where I thought that I would be
Surely I would know it in my bones
I came here not for love but for the possibility
Of setting free the love we knew for all of time
Don't you remember that I said that I would not forget
Your memory is safe with me
And you're heavenly
The only thing I know is I'm not sure
Where I left the keys to all the doors
And now that I am here I don't know why
Everybody looks the same
I will be the hunter, you can light the fire
Keep it burning until I return
As darkness falls I'll prove it in time to you
6.Dark Sea
Lyricist:Husky Gawenda
Writer(s):Husky Gawenda
Tell me you will wake me, in the night, when all is lost
Brother dont let it shake me up mornin' frost
If I could calm the storm that rages inside
I, I would surely try
Chorus (x2)
Black night
Cold heart
You're alive
You can't feel it
My God
Lift him out
The dark sea
He is swimmin' in
We were once just children, staring up, at the stars
When did we grow older and come so very far?
We could leave this town, this country, this life
We could live to learn and learn and live without a start,
trouble will strike
Chorus (x2)
Black night
Cold heart
You're alive
You can't feel it
My god
Lift him out
The Dark sea
He is swimmin' in
7.Forever So
Lyricist:Husky Gawenda
Writer(s):Husky Gawenda
Twinkling sky, fresh fallen snow
Tonight is cold, don't let me go
The sky is clear and we both know
The night is fast
Lipstick smile, mascara eyes
Remember me until you die
When she laughs I ask her why
Cause time is fast.
Come to me now
Morning's here
Scattered remnants
Cigarettes and beer
Don't ask why, why, why
Look out east, the morning glow
Watch me westward as I go
We shall be forever so
Looking back
8.Animals & Freaks
Lyricist:Husky GawendaGiden Preiss And Evan Tweedie.
Writer(s):Husky GawendaGiden Preiss And Evan Tweedie.
Hey man, do you wanna hear a story about me?
I'm an old man, you're probably not interested I see
But I'll tell you anyway, about the girl who came to stay
Thirty years, six months, and two days ago
She walked into the party with Joan de Monmarquis
She wore her beauty like a cloak, with the devil up her sleeve
And she was ancient like the Greeks, amongst us animals and
freaks
I lost my mind, never to find the useless thing again
There was something going on that night
But I don't know what it was
There was something going on that night
I was waiting, we were just waiting for it
I forgot everything I knew in the ancient sea that night
When she slipped her dress off shivering and clung to me so
tight
Then she whispered in my ear, 'There is nowhere else but here',
Nowhere, nowhere
There was something going on that night
But I don't know what it was
There was something going on that night
I was waiting, we were just waiting
You don't know yourself
You don't know yourself
You don't know yourself
Until she's had her way with you
We spent three weeks in a cheap hotel corroding by the sea
Tangled up in sheets and love and ancient misery
One day I woke to see her leave, she had an eagle on her sleeve
The last I heard she took the bird to catch snakes in Mexico
There was something going on that night
But I don't know what it was
There was something going on that night
I was waiting, we were just waiting for it
You don't know yourself
You don't know yourself
You don't know yourself
Until your time was almost through
Hey man, do you wanna hear a story about me?

10.Hundred Dollar Suit
Lyricist:Husky GawendaGiden Preiss And Evan Tweedie.
Writer(s):Husky GawendaGiden Preiss And Evan Tweedie.
Into the freeze I make my way
Follow a light unto the nations in my head
Speak not of tomorrow or yesterday
Let us be what we will never be again
On my knees in a hundred dollar suit
All the people came out of their shops
And in their cars the people watched me
Praying in the rain
Shipwrecked hearts start sailing
I wanna see my home again
I wanna see my home again
I still remember every day
Although I thought I'd forgotten everything
The streets in my mind still lead the way
And the people they still smile as they go by
On my knees in a hundred dollar suit
Some think it holy, some just crazy
As the lightening provides glimpses of me
Praying in the rain
Shipwrecked hearts start sailing
I wanna see my home again
Praying in the rain
See the ghosts start sailing
Wild man roams the mountains of my history
Deep sea flourishes with life inside my head
Old love, thought that you had gone away from here
Some think it holy, some just crazy
As the lightening provides glimpses of me
Praying in the rain
Shipwrecked hearts start sailing
I wanna see my home again
Praying in the rain
Shipwrecked hearts start sailing
On my knees in a hundred dollar suit
11.How Do You Feel
Lyricist:Husky GawendaGideon Preiss
Writer(s):Husky GawendaGideon Preiss
How do you feel
How do you feel
How do you feel, he said
I feel like I just killed a man
Although it doesn't feel real
The blood's too red
He looks too dead
Maybe it's a movie or a dream
Perhaps I'll wake up screaming
There's a plane overhead and the dawn's coming soon
I can see the road by the light of the moon
I can smell the morning, I can hear it warning me
The sun in the morning
The sun in the morning
Let's make like trees and stay
The birds they come
And stay for the summer
In winter they all fly away
12.Don't Tell Your Mother
Lyricist:Husky Gawenda
Writer(s):Husky Gawenda
Don't tell your mother that we're leaving her
Don't tell your father we may never return
And kiss your little sister while she sleeps
Don't think i'll tell mine, she'll never let us sneak
I'll tell those fuckers that I work for to go to hell
All the people thought they knew me so very well
Josephine, don't love her anymore
Anymore, anymore, anymore, anymore
We'll leave our things behind for friends and family
We'll move like gypsies along shores of silent sea
They'll be no reason to be frightened or sad
They'll be no wishing for the things we never had
You'll tell those fuckers that you work for to go to hell
All the people we thought you knew so very well
Josephine, don't love her anymore
Anymore, anymore, anymore, anymore
13.Farewell(In 3 Parts)
Lyricist:Husky Gawenda
Writer(s):Husky Gawenda
Come and see
The morning's here
The turnstone sleeps
On the rusty pier
And it's only time
But it's a new year
If only I knew why
But I'm still here
With you.
Things will be much better
Come April or May
Time can be so cruel
But it'll be my friend someday
There was a lot we didn't say
Wasn't there, Josephine
There were oceans in our way
But what does that even mean?
The fateful damn goodbye
As the trains pull in and out
The ruthlessness of time
The rain, the end
Only we will laugh about
Skinnyless big brown shoes
If you sleep too long
The world might wake up without you
