1.
Wild Roses 03:59
wild roses growing in the ditch where your mother and your father used to live wild sparrow sits upon the wire lightning strikes the forest down on fire prairie grasses swaying in the breeze in the backyard where you used to fall asleep empty bottles scattered all around shaken like a leaf you hit the ground nestled in the grass there's a cross that we drive past every morning on our way back into town marking off the place there's a shrine, a sacred space where you crashed your car into the slough & drowned winter spring and summer come and gone before my eyes a subtle setting sun dark of night sneaks up on us so soon you've become the silver on the moon
2.
Sun 03:40
one hundred million miles away i hang here rejected in desolate space gave you my warmth, my light, my grace each day you swing past me ungrateful I've been the sun in somebody's sky for most of my life I gave you seasons, sunsets, shade my power made life where it couldn't be made in dark I shone for you, bright anyway eclipse you kiss the moon so spiteful I've been the sun in somebody's sky for most of my life
3.
Snowstorm 03:31
I'm so tired of my friends dying and I keep trying to tell you it's so hard and the worst part is you don't know how I love you It's been so many years reinforced all my fears every time that we say "goodbye" could this be the last time that your glazy eyes drown in mine I had a picture of my life a dream of you & me and what we looked like you keep driving through this snowstorm find your ghost inside a luke warm drink while I sit by your side and watch you slowly die
4.
Ritual 05:38
your pale skin is crawling bloodshot blue eyes conspiring voices night after night days without rest the truth is suppressed addiction infests the woman posessed the welcomer of the unwelcome guest you've given yourself to the demon within a hand outstretched his claws pull you in your safe in his jaws he tempers the sting of all the pain brought by your life's suffering days without rest the truth is suppressed addiction infests the woman possessed the welcomer of the unwelcome guest paranoid ritual together you dance amidst chemical smoke & shattering glass
5.
I've got nicotine stains and bruises with no origin a secret in my pocket a mystery i can't solve yet I've got the words upon my lips a sentimental poison I've got your mouth upon my mind all the time I've got the blues & I can't make these colours change I've had the whole world at my feet and I still ran away I've got no reason to believe I killed my love and then I set her free I live amidst all of this shrapnel and this debris I've got the words upon my lips a sentimental poison
6.
Downpours 04:02
anticipation it builds greying sky falls calm and still cumulonimbus rage and swill concrete is dry before the spill i'm caught inside and unfulfilled always indoors for downpours down where the river bends and falls find freedom where your name is called statuesque like the trees stand tall my gaze is upward neverending serene we stand til river rises where life & death make compromises here we will meet our own demises finally free we feed the soil
7.
Witch 03:18
older than the mountains seldom is she seen lurks among the forest the black widow queen blacker than the night she waits beneath the trees soulless and alone in agony she screams I am the witch on the mountain creatures crawl in horror ravens call and crow souls to feed the soil and help the moss to grow sisters burned and butchered left alone to die none to soothe her misery none to hear her cries I am the witch on the mountain
8.
Drown 04:21
hey man you're not from here but I am watch you walk in and the room spins sounds & lights obstruct my vision do you see me drowning? can't swim we stand still, unmoving in this quicksand made of moving bodies right hand on my shoulder wall of sound blasts knocks me over waves crash my life's flashed before my eyes i don't wanna die lower anchor down to you if I drown, you too I don't wanna be alone here
9.
when darkness falls I close my eyes I fall into my quiet mind suspended in a blackened sea with no light but a single beam particles they float in reach in vision light extends with narrow precision down toward the floor beneath deeper than my eyes can see my bones lie lifeless amidst ships wrecked a watery grave inside my head it's too late vanished light i've gone too far and lost my sight water fills my mouth my lungs surrender to the serpent's tongue my bones lie lifeless amidst ships wrecked a watery grave inside my head
10.
do I not shroud myself well enough to hold within from without to hold sentiments in my mouth until you ask what it's about do these expressions reveal truths which i can't feel? swimming in my blood secrets like silver fish pulled by a full moon closer to the surface storm chaser over hell & high water follow me the lamb to slaughter
