Track Name: Intro
LYRICS
Oh they got a lot but now I think we’ll be just fine.
The faith the drunk the blood I think that we could be alright.

They won’t notice anything
And keep on asking why.

And you’re free
And I know.

And you’re free
And I know that’s what they were waiting for.
Track Name: Strange Bones
LYRICS
They promise you the promised land
But then they won’t come through and take both your hands.
So they can pray every night
And still hide their faces while they wave goodbye.

It’s so strange,
It’s so strange.

These strange bones,
Will never break.
They’ll never break
These strange bones.

I’ve been waiting and now I’m praying for you child.
They keep hunting they might find you.
I’ve been waiting and now I’m praying for you child
They keep hunting they might find you, alone.

The romantic who tore your heart out
While you fall to pieces saying “I’m so lost”.
And I feel the shame of being wrong
All my vices call out “Its been too long”.

Its so strange,
It’s so strange.

These strange bones,
Will never break.
They’ll never break
These strange bones.

The killer walks down the street, he signed his name, He signed it in the black top.

Its so strange,
It’s so strange.

These strange bones,
Will never break.
They’ll never break
These strange bones.
Track Name: Softsided
LYRICS
You’re so soft sided
You love it but hide it.
You want them but
Let them go.

And I see that you know.
I see that…

You’re so alone
You’re so alone
You’re so alone.

You’re so farsighted
This desert can’t hide it
Can’t see them
Can’t see them.
And it all turns to gold
It turns to, it turns to no.

You’re so alone
You’re so alone
You’re so alone.
You’re so low, low, low
Let me.
Track Name: Hi-Lo
LYRICS
I’ve got a plan
To find the silver lining.
Now hand in hand
We’ll shiver this together.

But when they give it back
We can throw it all away.

I understand the feel of
Your crystal touch.
And when we can
We’ll take from them, got so much.

Alright say a lot of things but it’s not mine.
I want a lot of things but there’s no time for it.
Track Name: Old Riot
LYRICS
You never pin my mind down.
You never keep your tongue tied.
The old wood floor, the old wood floor.
I see some blood on the door, there’s some blood on the door.

It’s just an old, old riot.
It’s such an old, old riot.
I’m gonna scream like a child who can’t have it no more.
Who ain’t got no heart,
Got no force.

So your eyes keep burnin.
With your twist and turning.
Now you want some more, No you need some more.
And there’s only one move.

It’s just an old, old riot.
It’s such an old, old riot.
I’m going to bite like a dog that can’t take it no more.
Who ain’t got no heart,
Got no force.

Is this the place?
I guess,
I guess.
Track Name: Cold
LYRICS
You’re feeling lonely
But there’s nothing about that.
You try your best
And you just pick up the slack.
Now send it to me I know what to do
Yes, this could be ok.

Send it to me and we’ll get through
Anyway.

Just don’t forget about it.

But don’t say that
Cause its true I feel bad.

And your cold, your cold and your cold.

She sounds so excited.
I don’t know quite what to do.
Track Name: Through the Storm...
LYRICS
I see their faces,
Through the storm,
Through the storm,
Through the storm.
Track Name: Washed Out
LYRICS
Now you do what you like
I’ll keep trying, I’ll keep trying.

And when the shock meets his eyes
He’ll be blinded, He’ll be blinded.
No I’m not lost all the time
I just kind of like it, kind of.

You’re just so washed out.
You’re so washed out.
But you’re always on fire
At least I think so.
But you’re always on fire
Now.

So you talk all the time about my lost generation
No migration.
Well find a safe place we can hide
And just stay here, lets just stay here.
You acting so tough all the time
Just sit down, just sit down.

Things they say about us.
We say about us.
They can’t
Lay me down.
Put me down.

Pick me up.
Pick me up.
Track Name: Cavalier
LYRICS
I know this neon is crazy
And that you’re not here to save me.
While I break into the
Midnight wine.

We’ll give it back, its back, its back
And leave it up to you right now.

I’ve got a forty on the plaid couch
While there looking at your figure
And you’re showing off your
Weekend Scars

You feel like you belong.
You feel so cavalier.
What they want to take
I already have.
Track Name: Crave
LYRICS
Come with me
But I get a feeling
That no one ever would.
Cause I love the game
Like I get a feeling
That no one ever should.
Cause its wrong when I’m right
And I feel like I…

This has been too much
This has been too much
Give them all just what they crave.

I love this sin
And I’m not looking for someone who never could.
Cause its who I am.
So I’m not looking for someone who never should.
Cause it’s wrong when I’m right
And I feel like I…

This has been too much
This has been too much
Give them all just what they crave.
Tell them all just who to save.

But no, not, now
Track Name: Black Horses
LYRICS
I want you to see.
I want to believe.
I need some relief.

I can catch you on three.
I can watch you succeed.
I can fight while you flee.

This is the pace your gun has set.
This is the place you haven’t gone to yet.
I can see what they mean by everything might change.

I don’t want to be mean.
I watch as you preen.
Get yourself clean.

I can stand by your side.
As worlds collide.
With black horses and tides.

I want you to see the colors the dreams
The places you’ve never been.
I want you to see the colors the dreams
The places you’ve never been.
I want you to see the colors the dreams
The places you’ve never been.
I want you to see the colors the dreams
The places I’ve never been.

I want you to see.
I want to be free.
I need some relief.
Track Name: Out of the City
LYRICS
You’re always saying “No I didn’t think so”
You got us moving
But we’re going so slow.
Keep you’re riddles
I’ve fallen far behind.
You’re always laughing
Always back at nothing.

Now stop your crying
We’ll go back soon.
But we never do.

It’s always stop
We’ll never go
Down through your head
Up through your toes.

It’s always stop
They’ll never know.
As things get gritty
Out of the city.

So you’d cut through him
It’s like you knew him.
But they never know
The truth.

Scream and shout
Scream and shout for it.
Just to get back here.
