This is a song for the one that I love
I haven’t met them yet
But I’m quietly confident
Although what if like he said
All I’m looking for doesn’t exist
Oh I have to believe it does
It’s okay to fall down
It’s okay to crumble
I’ve seen this before, I have seen this before
You said you wanted to crawl down deep inside
But at this point, after last year
I am happy to be alive
And like that good Hole album
I can live through this
I can live through worse
So play it back in reverse
It’s okay to fall down
It’s okay to crumble
I’ve seen this before, I have seen this before
You want to camp out
And I want to screw around in the dark
But my hips won’t give anything away
Not tonight
Not to you
But I think we both know you will stay
And I’m surprised how this fits together
I’m surprised how we fit together
And that I will remember
And that I will remember
It’s okay to fall down
It’s okay to crumble
I’ve seen this before, I have seen this before
You want to camp out
And I want to fuck around in the dark
But you need to know I’d do this all again
Just to get where I am,
Just to get where I am
I let you know I’d do it all again
Just to get where I am,
Just to get where I am

Well old postcards are romantic when they’re intact
And old postcards are romantically full of fact
And the ones you have to watch
Are the ones that keep coming back
And you came back
Yes you came back
Well old cars sit on old card
And the streets have changed
But I think I am still the same
And it’s not what I want to hear
Or what I want to see
But your skin’s covered in postcards
From you to me
And when you see me sit by myself
You’ll think I am waiting for someone else
But I’m wishing for somewhere else
I am wishing for somewhere else
Two postcards in a month or so
Well I don’t know I just don’t know
Two postcards in a month or so
Well I don’t know I just don’t know
And it’s not what I want to hear
Or what I want to see
But your skin’s covered in postcards
From you to me

Company

Please put on that record again
And I will put on that shirt you’ve been wearing around
You’ve been wearing around
It’s times like this i think too much
Oh please don’t think too much
I can’t let you in
‘Cause these walls have been built
No, I can’t let you in
‘Cause these walls have been built
You said I’m out on a ledge
Come stand with me
I need the company
I need the company
My face has turned red
But it’s not from something you just said
I’m blushing on the inside
It’s those damn green eyes
Panel by panel and piece by piece
This all fits together but it’s not what you think
Oh there I go again
You said I’m out on a ledge
Come stand with me
I need the company
I need the company
I’m trying to get you in
I’m trying to get you over
I’m trying to be brave
I’m trying to be brave
But you’re listening to everything I say
And I’m trying not to give it all away
I like to keep my cards so close
You like to keep that console on
And all my broken parts
And all my forgettable false starts
You can have them right now
But you better not look away
You can have them right now
But you better not look away
This is me trying to be brave

Horizons

A boat in the Gulf of Mexico
I know, I know it doesn’t snow
I know, I know where to go
In the book by my bed
That holds all the maps of places we travel
And where lives intersect
I know I know where to go
I know I know it doesn’t snow
A roof top crows nest in a sea swell
Oh yes I’m doing so well
A roof top crows nest in a sea swell
Oh yes I can see so well
And you’re nowhere to be seen
Sometimes you lay out like a map in front of me
Well you know I have to go
But you know I’ll come home
When I climb on my ship and I look all around
I believe in horizons now
I believe in horizons now
A roof top crows nest in a sea swell
Oh yes I’m doing so well
A roof top crows nest in a sea swell
Oh yes I can see so well
And you’re nowhere to be seen
I believe in horizons now
A roof top crows nest in a sea swell
Oh yes I’m doing so well
A roof top crows nest in a sea swell
Oh yes I can see so well
And you’re nowhere to be seen
And i can see you
on horizons true
And I can see through
on horizons true

Rearrange Beds
04:16

That bit before you remember
Everything you know begins to blend
Into bones that ache with things that you can’t spell
Rearrange beds to make sure thoughts
Flow straight from my house to yours
And when you’re asleep you can forget about us all
Aches that sail like ships through cartilage you never did anything to
For some reason it wants you to know it’s not so happy with you
And when your eyes open wide for just one second inside
The morning is your own
And when your eyes clear up and
You come to terms with everything you’ve got
Your laughs don’t fall out like they used too
They just sink straight back into you
Aches that sail like ships through cartilage you never did anything to
For some reason it wants you to know it’s not so happy with you
And when your eyes open wide for just one second inside
The morning is your own
Save a piece of string for me
Keep it safe and neat and tidy
I swear one day it will come in handy

Oh my god you’re a handful
And oh my god these hands are so small
Oh my god I’m a handful
And oh my god your hands got so full of me
Way too quickly
I thought I needed a suitcase
So I could pack this all away
I thought I needed a cold place
So when it snows
I could cuddle up to someone I don’t know
Oh my god you’re a handful
And oh my god these hands are so small
Oh my god I’m a handful
And oh my god your hands got so full of me
Way too quickly
I thought I needed a brave face
For one whole year I burned so brightly
I thought I needed a new place
But I looked around
And this was the town that I found
That I found
Believe me believe me when I say
I don’t want what I had yesterday
Believe me believe me when I say
I gave everything away
Believe me believe me when I say
I feel awake for a month and one day
Believe me believe me when I say
I don’t want what I had yesterday
Oh my god you’re a handful
And oh my god these hands are so small
Oh my god I’m a handful
And oh my god your hands got so full of me
Way too quickly

Little Lungs
05:23

And I thought you had ruined it all
And I thought you were going to hell
And I thought I had ruined it all
And I thought I was living in hell
But I get it now, I get it now
And they said that I had to be strong
And they said I should stick to the plan
And they said that it wouldn’t take long
And they said just remember the plan
And I get it now, I get it now
But sometimes it gets a little cold inside
And I know you tried, I know you tried
But they told me, they told me
Things aren’t always as they seem
But they told me, they told me
I should just concentrate and breathe
And I thought I was doing okay
While I thought you were doing so well
And I know you are doing okay
But I know there is that deep well
That you won’t look into
But sometimes it gets a little cold inside
And I know you tried, I know you tried
But they told me, they told me
Things aren’t always as they seem
But they told me, they told me
I should just concentrate and breathe
Breathe with little lungs I
Breathe with little lungs you
I know you are doing okay and
I know you are doing so well
You changed it all you changed it all
I didn’t reply to your letter and
I didn’t reply to your letter ’cause
I’m not here yet
So we breathe with little lungs

Scared as Fuck
03:12
|

I’m not really scared
I just like the way that those words sound
When they fall from my mouth
And I say them to you out aloud
Sometimes my hands
Clap louder than everyone else
But that’s the way it stands
If I want to clap the loudest
But I got so scared
That you might be
A better me than me
You can take my socks
But you damn well better leave my gloves
‘Cause I need my hands to be warm like everybody else’s
Once my hands are warm
I can give them to you and say
Please do all you can
But my fingerprints will stay the same
But I got so scared
That you might be
A better me than me
But we know someone who got so scared
At the supermarket and you were there
And I get to hold their hand
‘Cause they’ll get scared again
They’ll get scared again
I’m not really scared

Shoes Watch
04:34

Oh my my
Oh my my
It has come to this
Well it’s such a small town
And what comes always goes around
And there’s crows in the tree and they’re singing for me
There’s crows in the tree and they’re singing for me
All my luck
All my luck
It has come to this
There’s skeletons around
And they dance when the sun goes down
On rooftops where shoes just watch
On rooftops where shoes just watch
Come on and dance for me
Come on and dance for me
The crows sing so sweetly
The crows sing so sweetly
All my love
All my love
It has come to this
Well each bird song
In the dark before the dawn
It made me strong when i was far from
It made me strong when i was far from
Come on and dance for me
Come on and dance for me
The crows sing so sweetly
In the place where you used to be

Listen
02:51

Listen, listen
I’m listening carefully to where exactly you might be
‘Cause I have had enough waiting
I’ve had enough waiting for you
I’m thinking
Thinking of growing old with someone as beautiful as you
Just ask me to
Just ask me to
I’m recalling
Recalling putting jackets way too thin
To fight against snow way to thick
And it coming down sideways and you clearing my eyes
I’ve had little too much too think
I’ve had little too much too think
And empty rooms tend to make me believe in you
Surrounded by everything I own
Boxed and labelled ready to go
And not before time
And not before time
I’m listening,
I’m listening
