Cold woods, and bare feet
I know your hands they buried my seed
Late at night, your song brings the sunrise
And dries the dew from my spine
Tell me what I am to be
To be crushed by your feet
Or to grow from my weeds
Good morning world, this is my first leaf
And in the air I am free
It’s the same as it has always been
I’m a saint and this is my sin: Speak to my blood! Tell it to live

Past My Prime
02:38

Think my seventeen-year-old pregnant birth-mom thought that she was carryin’ a prophet.
As she held her stomach in her hands I know she had no thought to drop it.
Cause when I was born, I was bathed in oil
Surrounded by those trying to lift my spiritual and
After 22 years I think that I am growing strong and I am balling hard.
After 22 years I’ve learned that you don’t have to stiff arm when you’re balling hard.
(They say that) every year I have passed my prime
Oh and next year I’ll be a minister.
But I’ll admit it to her,
I’m not a menace to her and
when I’m not near to her,
I’m a bit shakier than I’d prefer...
But I was humble then and I’ll be humbled now as I confess:
"Furnace hasn’t shown you their best!"

Hello, West Coast, my dear
It's been a while since I've been out here
I know that I’m always gone
But someday I will call you my own
Tell me to push so I can push some more
Tell me to push so I can endure
Tell me to push until my hands grow sore, then I’ll push some more
Hello west coast my dear
I've been longing for a breath out here
Winter calls me back home and I feel like I am falling out
West Coast I'm here
I think it's time we cleared the air
I know my mind is gone, but I think I can find my way back
Tell me to push so I can push some more
Tell me to push so I can endure
Tell me to push until my hands grow sore, then I’ll push some more
I'm sore, I'm sore, I'm sorry love

Little Bird

Daylight, come sometime
It’s a fight and I’ve been kicking most of my life
It’s a fire and I’ve been burning all of my life
Little bird you don’t know your worth
Every song I sing, in the morning you’d return to me
Every time I flee, in the mourning… Its a fight, a war cry
Cause I have seen so many things and still I can't believe
This is more than just a dream
Cause I have seen so many things and still I can't believe
There is more than eyes can see
Does the father pursue the son?
Am I your only one?
Cause I have seen so many things and still I can't believe
This is more than just a dream
Cause, in the end, we’re the same
In the end, we’re unchained
In the end, we’re all saints

Heroin to Heroine

Decisions, decisions like you are heroin
Decisions, decisions while you’re balancing on a rope and you’re gonna fall
Decisions, decisions while you’re walking down your road
Decisions, decisions like heroin
But I ain’t got none
Fight me, fight me like we’re children on the playground
Confide in me, confide in me like I’m your savior
But I can't save you now
Find me, find me like we’re playing hide and seek
Confide in me, confide in me like I’m your savior
And I will save you now
Heroine, you are my darling
Heroine, you are my darling
Heroin, you are my darling, but you've never done nothing good for me

Knew Oar Lens

I know that you haven’t slept in days
So like a lover you go catch her face
And when you fear that you have worked all your days
Sing a chorus to take her to bay
Do you have the time to come meet me
I know you’re slammed but I wonder what do you mean
It's been just over sixteen weeks -- you’re consuming me
Do I consume you
Oh I never stopped dreaming like you said
But when I look we don't hold the offices
But what do I know of love’s austere and loneliness
Not much when I stop to catch my breath
Do you have the time to come meet me
I know you're slammed but you’re all that I can think
It’s been just over sixteen weeks -- you’re consuming me
Do I consume you?

Sacred Sin
05:12

Get off the bed
Face on the floor
Bloodthirst, you seep through hours
A bloodthirst, but it's ours
Adolescence, self-portrait, sacred sin
While my body breaks and bends: a sacred sin
Until our bodies bend and mend, a sacred sin
You didn’t pick up the phone
The message I left on your ringtone it goes as so
“Thaw me from the inside out, this cold grows deeper than the greatest doubt, no doubt!”
Adolescence, self-portrait, sacred sin
While my body breaks and bends: a sacred sin
Until our bodies bend and mend, a sacred sin
Adolescence, self-portrait, sacred sin

Morning Prayer
03:56
|
|

All of my friends are painted words from crystalline skulls
Kept up in your lockbox
All of my friends have gone away until they stay
Or will they fade? I hope they stay, I know they’ll stay if you say
All of my secrets are like seasons they move from day-to-day
Until they fade or until the fable comes and brings them my way
All of my secrets like seasons, there’s a leaf hanging on the tree
And it seems that it will be just you and me
All of my friends bark and beg and then they pray for me to see the light
But I've seen brighter days
Cause all of my secrets, have their reasons, like this hand around my throat
And no one can hear me scream to let me go but let me go, let me go
Cause all of my secrets, have their reasons, like a leaf hanging on a tree
And it seems that it’ll be just you and me, but don't let go
It's you and me
Seasons come, seasons come, go
My hands, they move and shake until they break but then you take away
Morning prayer rise, just come and fill my life make me right
Take your time, just make me right

Garden

Grow a garden on the roof of your parent's houses
Set sail for the king of hearts that you’ve always wanted
Search for a cave so you may live to make music
Build with your hands ‘til you understand the weight of them
Like I do, oh I do. Do you?
Glory in abundance
There’s food for my kin to love the oppressed
Glory in abundance
There is food for my kin to love the oppressed
Glory! Glory! Glory! Glory!
