no more
and what for
we couldn't speak it
couldn't fall apart
how could i say what isn't real
you saw the end
before we saw the start
so how could i tell you how to feel
no more
and what for
was it painless
was it fleeting
was it sweet release
line them up
and shoot them down
and see us all at peace
we couldn't speak it
couldn't fall apart
how could i say what isn't real
you saw the end
before we saw the start
so how could i tell you how to feel
tell you how to
feel it wholly
feel it choke you
feel it in your bones
tell me how to swallow
that you're never coming home
i didn't speak it
didn't fall apart
how could i say what isn't real
you saw the end
before we saw the start
so how could i tell you how to feel

Engine

waking in your bed
wake with me instead
this is not enough
living in your head
live with me instead
this is not enough
i've known fire and i've known steel
and i feel everything you feel
and i know fire but nothing's real and right
you've known ash and it's not cheap
and what you've sown is what you'll reap
if you know ash how do you sleep at night
every debt repaid
every word obeyed
this is not enough
every wasted year
every souvenir
this is not enough
how easy is it to pretend
the engine is our favourite friend
when it's the engine of the end of us
but freedom never comes for free
and we chase immortality
and everything will never be enough
this is not enough
unsteady feet
you're not incomplete
you're not falling
untempered heart
i'll take you apart
it's my calling
this is not enough

Pure
03:25
|
|||
|
silence in the afterglow
of distant paradise
rosy midnight vertigo
and honey lullabies
i was nothing without you
make me pure
cleanse me of my wrongs
if i act against your will
make me like you
i want to be a god too
pretty paper promises
we can’t be all condemned
silent in your providence
i disappear again
i am nothing without you

Evergreen

weary wander in the night
dreaming evergreen
searing silence in the light
blisters memories
of dizzy towers
lined with stone cut animals
talking with their teeth
if i wake you
might these sun starved cannibals
chase you back to sleep
falter footprints and the clouds
dancing merrily
wander weary and the ground
swallows memories
of dizzy towers
lined with stone cut animals
talking with their teeth
if i wake you up
might these sun starved cannibals
chase you back to sleep
if i wake you
might these sun starved cannibals
chase you back to sleep
if i wake you up
might these sun starved cannibals
chase you back to sleep
weary wander in the night
dreaming evergreen
