1.AM Tilts
(Let - it - go)
Come now, what's your name again？
I'm not implying come morning I'll need to know
but you never know.
The morning tilts
Over the hills
And floods the world
The morning tilts, the morning spills
The morning tilts
Over the hills
And floods the world
The morning tilts, the morning spills
We lose our grip
And slip (away)
Into the day.
(Let - it - go)
We can't kiss with grins like this
Chapped lips are all over your pearlies, girl...
We'd better stop.
The morning tilts
Over the hills
And floods the world
The morning tilts, the morning spills
The morning tilts
Over the hills
And floods the world
The morning tilts, the morning spills
We lose our grip
And slip (away)
Into the day.
(Let - it - go)
Oh, oh, oh
Over the world (over the world)
Oh - all are waking and
Oh - oh, but we
Oh - oh, but we...
Pressed against the end
Pressed against (oh - up against)
Oh - up against the end
Oh oh is this？
Could this, could be
Could this be the end？
The morning tilts
Over the hills
And floods the world
The morning tilts
The morning spills
The morning tilts
Over the hills
And floods the world
The morning tilts
The morning spills
We lose our grip
And slip (away)
Into the day.
2.Their City
We hide
As their sidewalks crawl diseased
The ever-shopping hopping fleas
Their engines hum the sun's reprise
We rise
To skies punctured with stars
She steers us through her Dogpatch bars
A barback nods, he's one of ours
As they sleep
Their city is awake and wide
Their city is awake and wide
We're aching inside, aching
Mistakes are waiting
To take me for a ride
My blood finally thick enough to drive
Marianne, last touch： 5：45
The highway's already alive
With the khakis teeming with caffeine
To coax the cursor 'cross the screen
The nervous tic-talking machine
All the lights go green
For me, Lord Legless, and my Sacred Rose queen
Ah - my Marianne
Tell your old man
We're nothing
Ah - my Marianne
Tell your old man we're nothing serious
From Lower Haight
To Sea Cliff Estates
Sped past their finest
Yet gave no chase
Brought our feast (their city)
Of Mission grease (their city)
To freeze our tits off (their city's awake)
On Baker Beach (their city's awake)
We rolled back to Polk (you rolled a smoke) (their city)
You killed the beams (and then I spoke) (their city)
Marianne I'm half his age
I'm half the man
Tell your old man
We're nothing serious
3.Wake The Sun
Every dawn gets its day like
Every frown gets her way like
Every step to the daylight keeps you stumbling on
Every backward blackbird
Sounding out through the rafters
So sure he can be heard
Thinks he bears a ton
So wake up, wake up, to wake the sun
Wake up, wake up, wake the sun
Wake up, wake up, hanging like a chain
Wake up, wake up, wake the sun
Wake up, wake up, hanging like a chain
Wait for, wait for the first train
Man dragging a sheep skin
Preaching reeking of weekend
To the signs speaking tongues of kingdom come
Every dawn gets its day like
Every gown gets her way like
Every step that I lay down bring me where I'm from
To lay down, lay down, to lay my crumbs
We're all on, on
That train
Wake up, wake up, wake the sun
Wake up, wake up, hanging like a chain
Wait for, wait for the first train
Who hired the walls of the station
To arrest my imagination
Profit from my place under the callous thumb
Every dawn gets its day like
Bound to blindly parade like
Every step that we weigh down plays out like a drum
To wake up, shake up, to wake the sun
4.Darkness Rising
Come, come
Come your darkness
Come, come
Come your private storm, come, come
Your dark flood's rising
I'll be here
I'll be here
I'll be here
Come, come
Come your hollows, come, come
Come to rinse your eyes
Come, come
Your dark flood's rising
I won't disappear (I'll be here)
I won't disappear (I'll be here)
I'll be here
Come, come
Come your confines
Come, come
Rain down your waiting world,
Come, come
Your dark flood's rising
Have no fear (I'll be here)
I'll be here (I'll be here)
I'll be here
Dark, dark floods rising
Dark, darkness rising
Come, come your darkness
Rain down your darkness
No matter how your demons, they rise to drive me off
No matter, no matter, no matter how your demons try to drive me
off
I will not disappear
Look at us and have no fear
Look at me...
I'll be here.
5.To Build A Mountain
Maybe a saint is just a dead prick with a good publicist
Maybe tomorrow's statues are insecure without their foes
Go ask the frog what the scorpion knows
While you build your mountain, but to build a mountain
I thought you all know, you gotta dig a hole
Thought everybody knows, we're digging holes
In solemn marble rows
And maybe ethanol is methadone for oil addiction
Maybe we'll all go green in desert shades of camouflage
Go ask the bloodhounds did they find the mirage
While you build your mountain, but to build a mountain
I thought we all know, you gotta dig a hole
Thought everybody knows, we're digging holes
By the grassy knoll
Maybe the wolf is not the Devil he just plays him on T.V.
Maybe a Cuban Bay stay leaves you less than overjoyed
Ask the fox about progress he'll list what's been destroyed
While you build your mountain, but to build a mountain
I thought you all know, you gotta dig a hole
Thought everybody knows, that we're digging holes
Just saying that's how it goes
You think everybody knows, we're stockpiling souls
And saying so it goes
6.We Are One
The
Time
Is
Now
When we are loud, we are one
When we are loud, we are one
When we are one, we are more
We are more, we are more, we are...
We are one.
The
Time
Is
Now
When we are loud, we are one
When we are one, we are more
We are more, we are more, we are...
We are one
If we're not the change we want to see
If we're not the change, the change, the change
Who will be？
When we are loud, we are one (if we're not the change)
When we are one, we are more, we are more (we want to see)
When we are loud, we are one (we are the change)
When we are one, we are more, we are more, we are more
We are...
We are one.
When we are loud, we are one
When we are one, we are more
We are more, we are more, we are more, we are...
We are one
One
We are more, we are more, we are more, we are...
We are one
When we are loud, we are more, we are more, we are one
7.Point Me Toward The Morning
Lyricist：John Feldmann, Harris, Hurwitz
Eternity, eternity, it's the pay check away
So chase your tail, chase that tale
The American tale, apathy, complacency
In our every, cheers for thee, no, oh well
We know, we know that we are more than this
More than we know, there's a reason we exist
We know, we know
We know, we won't be this easily dismissed
Commute work, commute sleep
We got cars at home to feed
Left my hair, left my hair strands on my self in the sink
Nothing to say, nothing to say
'Cause that's all, all they want to hear
We know, we know that we are more than this
More than we know, there's a reason we exist
We know, we know
We know, we won't be this easily dismissed
So point me toward the morning
Can you point me toward the morning？
Someone point me to toward the morning
No more, is it a sure thing？
So point me toward the morning
Can you point me toward the morning？
Someone point me to toward the
Apartment complex reeks
Of old take out Chinese
At night the ventilation speaks
Rush in and care to kneel
We know, we know that we are more than this
More than we know, there's a reason we exist
We know, we know
We know, we won't be this easily dismissed
We know, we know that we are more than this
More than we know, there's a reason we exist
We know, we know
We know, we won't be this easily dismissed
No, we won't be so easily dismissed
8.From 24C
Digits dial, digits dial...tone, monotone
Has she been feigning sleeping？
Framing sheep and all alone？
Downslide on the sidewalk,
I'm a distant ring
Out of body, out of body,
Pick me up, oh answer me
I just hurried over
Worried sick you might be sick
Gates are courting airplanes,
and clocks divorcing ticks
Before I left, thought I'd see you
At the show, you didn't show
Didn't message, didn't call
You didn't know, oh didn't you know？
I'm a liar too
Uh huh, that's why I think I understand you
Someone from your building holds for me a door
I'm in your lobby, your elevator
I'm on your floor, the second floor
I can hear you now
With my ear pressed to the paint
You're playing that cassette tape
That you took from me to take to Iowa
And that was near three years ago
Now I'm back up in that moment
Playing that yardsale Casio
I sang to you from a red room
(Together we'll grey, grey, grey)
Does he sing to you as well？
Much better, most would say
I hear him laughing
But I prefer this to the silence
When your lips are sealed against his
Or he fills your thighs with kisses
Or just for instance
He's clawing your fat,
Pushing your breaths into the mattress
You'll love a good many men, mmhmm
And loving me ain't gonna stop all of them
Like Adam we are flawed
In the image of our gods
Of our fathers, who never bothered
To consider they were not the only ones
(Faith, ohhh...)
Faith oh faith, is a way to believe lies that we need
Then to be faithful is to be truthless
But that's more than I need to say
Oh just don't run off and get married
And I'll surely be okay
'Cause I love you
They'll never cure that muse
Gotta go now
Pack my suitcase
Glad that you're okay,
And I love you, happy birthday,
See you in sixteen days.
9.Clouds Crash
Clouds crash on the hillside
Set to sail your soul at high tide
High time you left that shadow,
Dead weight in the meadow
Let it follow far below
Oh, Oh, Oh
Whoa what a ceiling
All the angels cracked and peeling,
Revealing constellations,
One day you will name one,
After a boy you knew
When you were back in middle school
And ingrained his name in love notes,
Every one retained though,
In a box behind your raincoats
Oh, those days
When rainy days meant
Trace the spaces raindrops made when
Racing 'cross the windshield
The pace of life wasn't real
Oh, though how we quickened
How the slope began to slicken
You slip into a grin then,
Begin with where you've been and
In my linen you are skin again
La da da
La da da da da daa
Da da daa
Da daa daa
La da da daa da da daa daa
Oh, oh, clouds crash on the hillside
Set to sail your soul at high tide
High time you left that shadow,
Dead weight in the meadow
In my linen you are skin again
10.Between Halloweens
Lyricist：Andy Kristiansen (pka：andy Winter)
It's not the girl
Who we let tear through our core
It's the tear there before
That made this girl into more
Skin white sheets
The dawn's printless snow
Nothing to define the difference
Just licked lips
Under a flame of coals
Many a prince has seen such splendor
But it's not the girl
Who we let tear through our core
It's the tear there before
That made this girl into more
It's not the girl
Who we let tear through our core
It's the tear there before
That made this girl into more
And we'll make mistakes
In the wake of mistakes
But not wake again to this one
When looks fade
We'll still reflect inverse
She'll dissolve to apparition, slight and stark
White light in the dark
But it's not the girl
Who we let tear through our core
It's the tear there before
That made this girl into more
It's not the girl
Who we let tear through our core
It's the tear there before
That made this girl into more
She don't deserve love
She'll get what she's deserving of
We don't deserve love
We'll get what we're deserving of
I don't deserve love
You'll get what you're deserving of
We all get what we're deserving of
But it's not the girl
Who we let tear through our core
It's the tear there before
That made this girl into more
It's not the girl
Who we let tear through our core
It's the tear there before
That made this girl into more
That made this into more
I was a duke last Halloween
This year gonna be James Dean
Just wish I knew who we are in between
11.If I Were You
If I were you (if I were you)
If I were you
Ohhh, If I were you (if I were you)
If I were you babe, I'd be, I'd be thinking of me
If I were you (if I were you)
If I were you babe, I'd be, I'd be thinking of me
Always, thinking.
Don't you feel nostalgic for our future？
When you'll look back and reminisce
Where you were when you heard me say
If I were you (if I were you)
If I were you babe, I'd be, I'd be thinking of me
If I were you (if I were you)
If I were you babe, I'd be, I'd be thinking of me
Always thinking
A little bit of mystery in your posture
A little bit of brash, little bit quiet
Not sure till you heard, you heard, you heard me say
Today, well you heard me say
If I were you (if I were you)
If I were you babe, I'd be, I'd be thinking of me
If I were you (if I were you)
If I were you babe, I'd be, I'd be thinking of me
Always thinking
Of me...
After work I look by where you sunk
Six stops past my block
Until now I never had enough no,
To talk such big talk.
If I were you (if I were you)
If I were you
Ohhhhhhhhh
If I were you (if I were you)
If I were you babe, I'd be, I'd be thinking of me
If I were you (if I were you)
If I were you babe, I'd be, I'd be thinking of me
Always thinking
Of me
12.Future Tense
Can you believe our parents once were young？
Before we all had to wear oxygen, yeah
I bet their lungs were full of toxins then
But what did they really know？
(What do do do you know？)
She said, 'I'll fall asleep 'fore I fall in love
(What do do do you know？)
Your stories bore me, boy let's make something up.'
(Right now, yeah!)
She pressed inside my shirt then gave me a shove
Said, 'What do you really know？'
(What do do do you know？)
You're all that I know
All that I know
All these stories, man they bore me
But they're all I know
Yeah, they're all I know, ohh
Will you like me？ Oh oh oh
Will you like me？
She said, 'I won't breathe to see retirement
(What do do do you know？)
And I don't believe in no environment.'
(That's history!)
She cracked a smile, I just admired it
'What's next？', I asked...she just laughed
(What do do do you know？)
Ha, I get a laugh, I get a laugh
But I'm not joking, you think I'm joking？
But I get a laugh, always a laugh
Will you like me？ Oh oh oh
Will you like me？
Leave the present tense
Face the future tense
Oh oh, will you like me？
I said, 'Tomorrow's your wrapped box to give.
(What do do do you know？)
The present is a just torn open gift.'
(What choice is that？)
She said, 'Why don't you go elope with
The sound of your own voice？'
(What do do do you know？)
The sound of my voice, the sound of my voice
Leaves me silence, I don't like it
The sound of my voice, the sound of my voice
Oh, oh, will you like me？
(What do do do you know？)
Oh, will you just like me？
Oh, oh, oh, hey, will you like me？
13.Yankee In A Chip Shop
We've come, come, to chameleon

14.Proctor Rd.
All the people 'neath your feet
That you'll never speak to
You'll never meet
All of their windows on the glow
All of the dark age will go
Same as the dark when eyelids close
When you find a house on Proctor Rd.
It's walls of your skin, tissue thin
This is your Captain speaking：
'Welcome to the place
Seats back, return
To your all-importance of great concern
From your womb slash tomb
Slash seating coach
Feel the dead weight of a shadow approach
Feel the dead weight, weight of a shadow approach
