gloria

how can I could I manage

blood and lust?

the fire that burns our home to ashes

our love from dust back to dust

gloria! gloria!

now I wander all the valleys of our shadows

and I must, because a promise is a promise

ashes to ashes, dust to dust

gloria! gloria!

promised I'd always, always love you

that I'd care, that I'd trust ghosts and wounds

I keep, I keep so open they have turned

my rags to rust, and back to dust

gloria! gloria!

gloria! gloria!

one day it comes

the blind they see

your words on read

and empty

you'll give yourself

and lose it too

a resounding crown

a shot straight down to you

mama! mama! mama!

I watch the birds

I hush the dark

dark deathless sleep

dark needless spark

blacked out and mangled

flesh on the floor

take what you can

or take some more

beautiful ppl

I turn my rags right into riches

I take the sword right from the stone

I am the green, I am the vying

I kneel because I am the throne

everlasting, ever dying

I know no peace I, I know no

I know no peace I know no I know no- 

I turn the wine back into water

I take the sword right from the stone

and all around me crowds of angels

and all within me all I've known

I am the coming! I am the dawning!

I am the aging and the foals!

the land is thick now in the vying

I am the raging broken souls!

I am the light and every trying!

I am the giving and the tolls!

the land is thick now in the vying

I know no peace, I know no home

(I know no peace!)

I know no peace, I know no home

where did all the beautiful people go?

where did all the beautiful people go?

where did all the beautiful people go?

desire

someday the changing distant skies

blasted abundant cycles divine

will grant you the grace of all of your yearning

desire, desire

do you think you're ready?

do you think you're fine?

do you think you're open?

do you know you're mine?

do you know you're mine?

that's when we'll meet on a fleeting horizon

it asks for a moment and leaves you refined

uncertain and able and honest and patient

always and burning tears in my eyes

in my eyes

do you think you're ready?

do you think you're fine?

do you think you're open?

do you know you're mine?

do you know you're mine?

Hh 2

I'd cut off my arms

to give you my hands

cakes in the oven

ice in the sand

and I wait for you

because I'm your man

blood for batter

skin for the band

and I hear you now

I see you when

you come runnin'

runnin' runnin' 'round

and holy holy holy

holy holy holy then

Amen

Amen

Amen

maverick

when the day breaks, you rise from your dreaming

when the night falls, it's all that you know

when the winds come, you let them run through you

when she leaves you, oh please let her go

when the tides come a’ rollin', you greet them

when the fire comes a’ burning, you know

when the embers are left for the ashes

there is no place for it all to go

and my sadness it floods out the runways

and the navy men never came home

and I didn't know love till I found you

so the seas now, forever I roam

so the seas now, forever I roam

I roam, I roam 

ALL IS FAIR

so many things I wanna say, still

I know that all you wanna hear

a painting of another place

forests lush and full of deer

they lead you to a rushing stream

rife with milk and honey wine

the flesh of fruits, so sweet soft clouds

golden specks, your hand in mine

all is fair in love and war

all you are and all you swore

yeah, all is fair in love and war

all you are and all you swore

the night, it draws the deer you aim

to keep seems so tender, never lost

prepare your bow and arrow, squint and shoot

surely someday soon you'll know the cost

she tries to run, becomes the storm

the river dries, the day is never born

I hold her in my arms forevermore

a doe, a deer, and nothing more

a doe, a deer, and nothing more

nothingforme

I know you’re lost, tell me, are you free?

not one word was true, not one word for me

I know you’re deaf, tell me, can you read?

not one word was mine, I need and I need

nothing you know, nothing you see

nothing you said, nothing for me

nothing for me, nothing for me

nothing you know, nothing you see

nothing you said, nothing for me

Heart of Stone
no days so gray

no hours new

no seas so dry

no bones so blue

no night so dark

no room so bleak

no hearts no lies

no words I speak

no hearts no lies

no words I speak

and miles to go before I sleep

and miles to go, miles to go

before I sleep

all I wanna do is

spend my time with you

all I wanna, wanna do

and miles to go before I sleep

and miles to go, miles to go

before I sleep

HLS

it's hard to love somebody who's not loving you

hard to close the door and start with someone new

it's hard to love somebody who's not loving you

hard to believe that you don't feel it

like I do, like I

it's hard to love somebody who's not loving you

it's hard to hear when all I hear is me and you

it's hard to love somebody who's not loving you

it's hard to swallow when you look the way

you do, you do

The Way to the Sea

I keep inside me, the things I can't shake,

and I keep beside me, the things that I make

know when it's time, I hear it clear

you know in your heart when it appears

maybe it's tricky, maybe you're wise,

maybe it's you, who wears the disguise?

try and remember when I see your smile

try and record the moments for a while

but I can't bear to look, I won't be the same

dive right through your silence, forget I'm insane,

and I'll know when it's time, I know who you'll be,

and you know in your heart the way to the sea

you know in your heart the way to the sea

the way to the sea

everyplane

I dreamt I woke right beside you

the air was silk and warm and stained

you held me close, you whispered blindly

you took my hand and lost my name

the light it found your every demon

it stretched for miles, it never waned

and I saw you standing wild and

minding every road and every plane

we soared above the milky skyline

your hair ablaze, a lion's mane

and you turned to me all stars and glory

and you left me there alone and sane

kiss&tell

it’s been way too many hours

it’s been thirty hour days it’s been

forty thousand minutes and I

don’t even know your name

and it must have been last winter

maybe fall or maybe spring, you

told me you’d come home in summer

said you wouldn’t miss a thing

and I see you at every bus stop

I drive by bikers and I cry

I tell myself that's you riding home

but you're just passing by

da da da da da

da da da da da da da

da da da da da

da da da da da da da

I read about you in the papers

I read you’re married and you’re well

but I still hope one day you’ll come and

promise I won’t kiss and tell

(I don’t even know your name)

promise I won’t kiss and tell

(I don’t even know your name)

promise I won’t kiss and tell

The Man That Loves Me

the man that loves me never stalls,

never lies, never falls

the man that loves me, I know I'm his

won't let me wonder if it is

the man that loves me loves me so much

can't bear to stop it, needs my touch

the man that loves me wouldn't care

about the world or their affairs

the man that loves me tells me so

the man that loves me lets me know

the man that loves me loves me so much

can't bear to stop it needs my touch

the man that loves me wouldn't care

about the world or their affairs

Always on Time

you’ll wanna be ready, cuz this is the year

the wars are all over, there’s nothing to fear

the windows all blown out, the mountains all gone

forget all the words, forget all the songs

need you to be willing, know that you belong

know that it's all yours, and that you are strong

and the people that love you and the people that won’t

and the lump that you feel in the back of your throat

high on the highway golden and rhyme

I'm always in love and always on time

I'm always in love and always on time

I’m always in love and always on time

I'm always in love and always on time

always in love and always on time

always in love and always on time

always in love and always on time

always in love and always on time

always in love and always on time

I'm always in love and always on time

always in love and always on time

I'm always in love and always on time

I'm always in love and always on time

cigarettes

all your dreams have come true

all your hopes, all your fears snapped in two

and there’s nobody coming, the army's all gone home

the train it stops for no one, you know,

you walk the earth alone

but you may stand beside me

I'll guide you through the pain

a wash, a cost, a loss, an endless acid rain

a cigarette still burning, reckless love in vain

a push through every dying

until you know my name

HK24

I wandered through the valleys

I crossed over oceans

I left my home, I left the people I love

I left my mind, I was the desert

I died in the mornings, I cried

I was the fire I was the water I

was the grass and the sky opens

because the sky opens loving

you and loving me

loving you and loving me

loving you and loving me

loving loving loving loving you

and loving me loving you and

longing, longing

Raga

I walk alone, tend to the things that I have grown

I dress myself all on my own, nobody calling on the phone

and I walk the line

yeah you would think it’d be a crime

to leave the things that are sublime

out in the rain and far behind

dull blades and tragedy and time

no, I never said that you were mine

and if I did it’s by design

cuz nothing brings you back and I’m

oh I’m lost without you but you’ll find

me standing tall and all alive

I’m so Happy

I thank the world I found you

but I didn’t think it through

and I won’t now I’m so happy

so happy here with you

and I’m so happy, so happy I could cry

and I’m so happy, so happy I could die

but I won’t die for you, no that will be

just for me. you can trust I’ll keep on

breathing, we’ll live closer to the sea

and I promise I will brave through every

dark and countless cold, I’ll brace

the ice and kiss you twice and

never grow too old

and I’m so happy, so happy I could cry

and I’m so happy, so happy I could die

Dream

I won’t ask you no favors, no I won’t

tell you all my cares, and I won’t

see you in the morning and I won’t

tell you it’s not fair

and I won’t ask you for your secrets

no I don’t care what you did last

and I won’t greet you in the evening

I won’t ask about your past

it’s just the days are every color

and the skies are every blue and I am

sure that this is just a dream, a dream

of me and you

and I won’t ask you for your hands and

I won’t call and take your time, and I won’t

need you when the night comes and I won’t

calm your weary mind

it’s just the days are every color

and the skies are every blue and I am

sure that this is just a dream, a dream

of me and you

no I won’t ask you no favors, no I won’t

tell you all my cares, and I won’t

see you in the morning and I won’t

tell you it’s not fair

Lolita

I wanna be your little Lo, your only sweetheart

wanna be your little plaything by the pool

I wanna be your humid days, I wanna drink your lemonade

wanna follow you and follow all your rules

want you to call me dear when no one’s watching

I want your big strong hands around my face

I wanna be your silly charm I wanna give you my thin arms

I wanna be all soft and fierce and wrapped in lace

and I dream a little dream that you do love me

and it’s clear to me with every rising moon

you’ll look at me like there is nothing else, and then

you’ll come to me and say it’s all too soon

want you to cook for me and clean up all my messes

want you to read to me and erase all my cares

I wanna get down on my knees I wanna tell you baby, please

oh won’t you take me in your arms and up the stairs?

Another Day

you told me this once, that we found

all the things, choirs and wings—

and if this is that life, and our time

did collide, I’d live every year over,

oh I’d bleed in a line

and the stars will all creep into cracks

in the seams, and the angels will cry,

because everyone’s dreams, they come

true in the end, and there’s nothing that is

your mind cannot mend

a-flight in the floods, lucid, serene, just

one billion scars, and an infinite sting,

and you can’t stop it now, no the things

that you sing, they’ve already been sung,

and whenever it rings—

no, you can’t hide from the night!

you can’t shy from the brink!

you can’t run from the light! and I

know what you think! I’ll be clean,

I’ll stay loving, yeah nothing can

change the way that it feels

to be here another day

another day

another day

Maybe

maybe you feel me, awake

a beam on home, an awful ache

and no matter when, no matter

when, no matter matter matter

matter matter then

and maybe you don’t

and maybe I won’t

maybe it matters

maybe it won’t

See Me

see me, take it all

however you want it

however it falls

I scream in the hallways

shake when it calls

buildings all ivy, the

trees all the walls

over and ever, and

nobody’s call

breathe me, and

waste it all

the sun, it was lying

forever and falls

however you want it

however it falls

Up to this

you’re cutting it close, your

back to the wall, you’re feeling

shy, and a little small, and you

know I always, oh I hoped, that

you would be a little strange,

and they’re not gonna wait

for you to change, for you

to change

what if I told you it was all

for this? a quiet smile, and a

sweeter kiss? that all the roads

you walked and crashed and

burned, and all the ones you

missed, that they all led,

up to this? up to this

and you feel it coming

you feel it coming

you feel it near

and you, you feel it coming

you, you feel it near

and you, you feel it coming

you, you feel it near

Better Today

you want something else,

need something far

I wash the walls white

I wait in the car

I wait in the

is it better to hide?

better to stay?

I’m better alone

I’m better today

I’m better today

you want someone’s touch

to whisper your name

I wait on the ceiling,

I turn off the game

is it better to hide?

better to stay?

I’m better alone

I’m better today

I’m better today

just stain it all through

remember it bright

the sirens all waiting,

just turn off the lights

is it better to hide?

better to stay?

I’m better alone

I’m better today

I’m better today

I’m better today

I’m blue

I always and I coulda and I woulda

and I never but I shoulda and I’m home

and I leave and I stay and I go and I’m blue

and it’s everything that I’ve never known

and I’ll sing till my limbs are so tired that

the dawn couldn’t bring me to bed, can’t

help it, can’t shake it, won’t fight it, I live

in the things left unsaid

and there’s nothing I can say now

nothing I won’t do

there’s nothing I can say now, there’s

nothing that isn’t for you

da da da da da da da

da da da da da da da

da da da da da da

and it’s true that I’m no longer dying

and I live like I’ve never known pain

and I’m free, and I’m me, and I know

that I see and I live with the wind

and the rain, hey

and there’s nothing I can say now

nothing I won’t do, there’s nothing

I can say now, there’s nothing that

brings me to you

10KM

I would walk 10,000 miles

and I would wait 10,000 more

and I would walk 10,000 miles

if it means I’m coming home

I’m coming home to you

Hh

I’d cut off my arms to give you my hands

cakes in the oven, ice in the sand

and I wait for you because I’m your man

blood for the batter, skin for the band

and I feel you now

I see you when you come running, running ‘round and holy, then

amen, amen

Arizona

you left your dog in Arizona

you took a burning sun straight to the face

you didn’t wince

and it told you something you couldn’t keep and couldn’t place
