1.Walk This World
I have slept beside the winter and the green is growing slow
I have watched you find the places hidden by the snow
I have tripped into a valley that is blue till you can see
I want you to come walk this world with me
With the light in our eyes it's hard to see
Holding on and on to what we believe
I'm not touched but I'm aching to be
I want you to come walk this world with me
And I'm sucked in by the wonder and I'm fucked up by the lies
And I dig a hole to lie in and I build some wings to fly
And I think that I could love you 'cause you know how to be free
I want you to come walk this world with me
With the light in our eyes it's hard to see
Holding on and on 'til we believe
With the light in our eyes it's hard to see
I'm not touched but I'm aching to be
I want you to come, I want you to come
I want you to come walk this world with me
And it's burning in our fingers and it's burning on the road
And I like the way you're broken and I'll like you when you're
old
And I see you in the garden and I feel you plant the seed
I want you to come walk this world with me
With the light in our eyes it's hard to see
Holding on and on 'til we believe
With the light in our eyes it's hard to see
I'm not touched but I'm aching to be
I want you to come, I want you to come
I want you to come walk this world with me
2.Heal
Fall for me, my southern cross, my star
Shine for me when love has gone too far
I've got you belly-deep in me
Just a little breath on the water is all we need
Just a little strength in our hearts -
Enough to heal,
Enough to heal
Dig me out, can't leave this love for dead
Hand to mouth we're picking up the thread
I've got you belly-deep in me
Just a little breath on the water now is all we need
Just a little strength in our hearts,
Enough to heal,
Enough to heal
And the sea glistens,
And the waves pull us in
There's something rising up and up
Just a little breath on the water now,
Just a little strength in our hearts,
Enough to heal,
Enough to heal
3.Island
There are parts of me he'll never know
My wild horses and my river beds
And in my throat voices he'll never hear
He pulls at me like a cherry tree
And I can still move, but I don't speak about it
Pretend I'm crazy, pretend I'm dead
He's to scared to hit me now, he'll bring flowers instead
I need an island, somewhere to sink a stone
I need an island, somewhere to bury you
Somewhere to go
And the dogwoods shimmer in October sun
'Oh sweet thing' he sings to me, 'You're the only one'
I need an island, somewhere to sink a stone
I need an island, somewhere to bury you, somewhere
I need an island, somewhere to sink a stone
I need an island, somewhere to bury you, somewhere to go
And I don't know why I can't tell my sister
He spat in my face again, and I don't want to die here
You know that dream when your feet won't move
you want to come but your body won't let you
He steals it from me
He steals it from me
It shines like sweat, like jewels
Like something that has died to soon
He fucks with the beauty
A kiss, a kick, a kiss, a kick, a kiss kiss kick
He steals it from me
It's out of my hands again
I need an island, somewhere to sink a stone
I need an island, somewhere to bury you
Somewhere to go, to go
4.Throwing Fire At The Sun
I think of Venus sinking down into the sea
And what it is to be alone and have nothing
I don't know why you want to leave this space between
Is it easier to be alone and have nothing ？
You and me and everyone,
Throwing fire at the sun
I put my hands up, lay my weapons down
I know that I was stupid, I was wrong
You and me and everyone,
Throwing fire at the sun
If I listen there's something deeper that speaks
If we reach out maybe we could make a little peace
You and me and everyone,
Throwing fire at the sun
Remember stealing oranges and how they bled
And you're the one who showed me how to touch myself
You and me and everyone,
Throwing fire at the sun
Blood is a river, ties you to me,
Blood is a river, ties everyone
Blood is a river, ties you to me,
Blood is a river, ties everyone
5.Maybe An Angel
I put my hands where your wings should be,
I put my feet where the earth should be
And I can't see very far
And when you said that you were dead I hung on
Something I feel,
You are an angel, or maybe you could've been
Something out here
You are an angel or maybe you could've been
I've got this light hangs over me
I've got this fear cuts into me
And I can't see very far
And when you said that you were dead I hung on
Something I feel
You are an angel, or maybe you could've been
Something out here
You are an angel or maybe you could've been
See how they run
And nobody said you would go
See how they fall
And I can't see very far
And when you said you were dead I hung on
Something I feel
You are an angel, or maybe you could've been
Something out here
You are an angel or maybe you could've been
See how they run
See how they run
All the same, all the same
Something out here
You are an angel
6.Truth And Bone
Sometime I can feel you breathing into me
And these hands I can feel them tugging at my sleeve,
I move through the day in the rhythms that I've known
I've got this crazy dream of stripping down to truth and bone
All of it, all of it, all of it stripped down
All of it, all of it, all of it, to truth and bone
My mouth is full of secrets I'm too afraid to tell
My body's full of longing for you to know me well
I move through the day in the rhythms that I've known
I've got this crazy dream of stripping dowtruthhruth and bone
All of it, all of it, all of it stripped down
All of it, all of it, all of it, to truth and bone
I think of sinking in way over my shoulders,
Let the water, the water take me in and I
Need you to cut through to where I'm hidden,
I'm awkward and I'm too polite and I want
Two stars for arms Orionorion I could
Breathe in and breathe in and breathe out
If I could only lose myself
I would lose myself in you,
I move trough the day in the rhythms that I've known
I've got this crazy dream of stripping down to truth and bone
All of it, all of it, all of it stripped down
All of it, all of it, all of it, to truth and bone
7.Blue Black
Eat your words, eat your heart out
Eat your words, eat your heart out
There's not much left, just my red dress
Just this feeling that I got
You made me a victim in your Christmas kitchen
It's my memory it's your loss
Blue black, maybe you got something
But the flowers grew back
And was it familiar when you touched my sister
God, I don't think there's a word for that
Blue black, maybe you got something
But the flowers grew black
I gave it away, whore for a day
It's so ugly, I'm still breathing
But you never got my virgin heart
It stayed locked up, it's still beating
Blue black, maybe you got something
But the flowers grew black
Eat your words, eat your hat
Eat your words, eat your heart out
I never felt so clean, you did the sin supreme
You never had a clue, you can't take it with you
I never felt so clean, you did the sin supreme
You never had a clue, you can't take it with you
8.Walking Higher
I carry you with me,
A ghost inside
And in these shattered arms,
You're still alive
I carry you with me,
A holy shrine
And dogs and angels follow
Right behind
And could I be walking higher,
Could I be right beside her ？
The bones they buried,
Will feed the trees
But every word you ever spoke,
Is still in me
And could I be walking higher,
Could I be right beside her ？
And I will feel for you in the music,
And I will send that river home
And I will cry for you sometimes,
When the night is down
And I raise my head up to the mountains,
Talk to the birds and I fly,
'Cause the spirit lives on,
When the body dies
And could I be walking higher,
Could I be right beside her？
Could I be walking higher,
Could I be right beside her？
9.Light Years
You found me
Drifting,
Big motion like a bird,
Strangest song I ever heard
Now, now that you're here
Stay with me light years,
Light years, light years
No paper, no ring
In the trees where frogs sing
I brought lilies for you,
Think of all the things were gonna do
Now, now that you're here,
Stay with me light years
I give you a thousand hours,
Making love in the tall sunflowers
I give you a thousand feet
Down where the water's deep
Sleepy storm, sleepy head,
Limb for limb on my bed
Now, now that you're here,
Stay with me light years,
Light years, light years,
Light years, stay with me,
Stay with me, stay
10.Verona
It gets inside you like the sun,
it makes you wet just like the rain
It makes you sound so sentimental,
it's a lovely kind of pain
I used to dream,
I used to dream about Verona
I used to dream, to dream,
I used to dream about Verona
And if there ever was an earthquake,
I'd go down in the earth with you
And if there ever was an avalanche,
I'd landslide down with you
I used to dream,
I used to dream about Verona
I used to dream,
I used to lean over the side of the boat
And get hypnotized by the water and dream
It's up in the trees it's up to me
It's out of the blue, out to you
I used to dream,
I used to dream about Verona
Yeah Romeo you are pricellifelessfeles,
Skipping star to scar to star
I used to dream you'd be
Slipping, slipping from me
Burnbreathingating, breathing,
Sleeping, in me
I used to lean over the side of the boat
And get hypnotized by the water and dream
Slipping, slipping, slipping,
Slipping from me
Burning, burning, breathing,
Sleeping in me
11.Doubled Up
I saw a mountain from higher above
I held your hand and I was doubled up in love
Big sky above me, a river inside me
And I'm doubled up in love
You're watching your step but you fall as you're walking
You take it in stride but still you fall as you're walking
Big sky above me, a river inside me
And I'm doubled up in love
Feels good it feels like poetry
Don't ask me to explain it just
Feels good, like poetry,
I'm doubled up again
Look at the sky,
Lift off like an aeroplane,
Watch the ground come up to meet you
Big sky above me, a river inside me
And I'm doubled up in love
Feels good, it feels like poetry,
Don't ask me to explain it just
feels good, like poetry
I'm doubled up again
12.Sugar
On the Vermont Transit Bus I leaned my arm into a little chink
of sun
Going somewhere older than I was
Strapped into something tight, keeping me small
I dug into you like rock climbing
Too scared of coming down
Too scared of going up
Too scared of rockface
I should've split my sides or spilled my guts or hit you or
something
But I was good, and your father's little pancakes
So round and perfect and me sitting up too straight
Laughing in wrong places, kissing you
Kissing up, kissing too soon
When the cock crows
When the morning comes where will I go？
When the cock crows
When the love is gone where will I go？
And when you got me pregnant I stopped the party and
I stopped the typewriter and I stopped your dumb ball game in
the red barn and I
Stopped your father and bled instead
And I felt the lie - something sticky on the inside
A bitter wind in my throat
Stopping me wanting
In my stomach, in my head and you said
Sugar sugar, you couldn't come come
Sugar sugar, without your mother
Sugar sugar, you couldn't taste it
Sugar sugar, in my throat
When the cock crows
When the morning comes where will I go？
When the cock crows
When the love is gone where will I go？
