Chalk It Up
04:00

Well I'm a special kind of someone
With a certain little somethin' that's
Screwed on loose in my head
And it's a special kind of kindness
That this callow Christian blindness
Went ahead and made me callous instead
Well I can run right through red land rivers
Where the ridge line revels in red land sun
And I can turn the tables on those
Twisted tenor tales that are tellin' you to
Settle for one
Is it too late to chalk this to a loss?
Hang it 'round my neck like an albatross
Yeah I'm on top
But this mob's without, oh
I'm sick of this marriage
To lady doubt
Give me a sign
Of anger so devout
I'm lookin' for the exit
Fuck this, I'm out
Well this looks like a pretty perfect place
For our little pity party to pause
Though many of the things that I miss the most
Will most likely mark me with their claws
And it's a happy little handful of half thought
Hairline, trigger trps for me to cross
Though babe you'll understand that the
Rules do demand I get the seed, fox, and chicken across
Is it too late to chalk this to a loss?
Hang it 'round my neck like an albatross
Yeah I'm on top
But this mob's without, oh
I'm sick of this marriage
To lady doubt
Give me a sign
Of anger so devout
I'm lookin' for the exit
Fuck this, I'm out
And I'm on top of a world that's
Burning down
King of all the black ash and white
Trees I can see
Haven't read a lick of the books they're
Burning in town
Never thought those kind words were meant
For me
Yeah I'm on top
But this mob's without, oh
I'm sick of this marriage
To lady doubt
Give me a sign
Of anger so devout
I'm lookin' for the exit, yeah
I'm lookin' for the exit, hey
I'm lookin' for the exit
Fuck this, I'm
Out

Sights and Sounds

We might not see eye to eye, no
But her eyes, they're sapphire waters
Drinkin' up, I drink I pray
That those gems are here to stay, oh oh
She might not be on my side, no
But my sides, they're stitchin' up
Pushing me I'm on the cusp
I try not to laugh or cry
Oh sights and sounds won't replace you
Hard packed ground won't erase you
Livin', but hardly worth all these years
Hands in the soil, bury these fears
Words confound hope we cling to
Bones I found won't convince you
Livin', but hardly worth all these years
Hands in the soil, your brand new fear, oh
And maybe I should get over it
Maybe I should just
Let you stay, let you stay
In a realm of possibility now
Maybe I should get on now,
And make sure I'm in it for me
Oh, who-oah
And maybe I should get over it
Maybe I should just
Let you stay, let you stay
In a realm of obscurity now
Maybe I should get on now,
And make sure I'm in it for me
Oh ha ha ha
Oh sights and sounds won't replace you
Hard packed ground won't erase you
Livin', but hardly worth all these years
Hands in the soil, bury these fears
Words confound hope we cling to
Bones I found won't convince you
Livin', but hardly worth all these years
Hands in the soil, your brand new fear, oh
Oh sights and sounds won't replace you
Hard packed ground won't erase you
Livin', but hardly worth all these years
Hands in the soil, bury these fears
Words confound hope we cling to
Bones I found won't convince you
Livin' with these fears

Heat is risin' off me right now
Feel it bubble from the underground
Dig your hands in the dirt just to stay in
Place
Shouldn't second guess the owls story
Got no eyes of their own, but they're lookin' for me
Better bury it deep
Just like I
I can see
What it is
I can fight, scream
Bite and hiss
Oh please just leave me this
Fear's got nothin' on these small towns
Pines and ghosts will rock that white sound
Bones and roots underneath
Just like I
Got their eyes in your house so get out the country
Chew you down to your bones, teeth and eyes so hungry
I can bet you'll regret
Wasting time
I can see
What it is
I can fight, scream
Bite and hiss
Oh please just leave me this
I, I
I, I
Oh who-oah
I, I know
What it is
I, I
I, I
Oh who-oah
I, I know
What it is
I can see
What it is
I can fight, scream
Bite and hiss
I, I
I, I
Oh who-oah
I, I know
What it is
I know tides will
Take my soul out, and
Wash it clean
Against the sand, oh and
Crawl for miles on
Through that fallout, but
I'm just doin' the best
I can
And dance right on past the
Worlds ending, with
All my worthless
Cards in hand, but
I don't think I'll be
Seein' your face
When I come down to land
I, I
I, I
Oh who-oah
I, I know
What it is
I, I
Who-ooo
I, I know
What it is
I, I
Who-ooo
I, I know
What it is

Does it mean I'm
Givin' up?
Does it mean I've
Had enough
Does it mean I've
Got my shine back
Baby it's all around
Does it feel like
Somethin' new?
Measure days in
Shades of blue
Shake the dust and
Scream like an air raid
Siren it's all around
LA California kids
Cigarettes between their lips
Blow the smoke into your eyes
Well pop's all gone and powered down
Clouds of smoke still hang around
From where they used to stand in line
Shit don't even get me high
Was it just one big waste of time?
Well somethin' heart
Please understand that
I've let grey skies
Fill my head
With talk of something better
But you know I'll be just fine
It's shock and animus
Rock analogous
Camel like a sewing thread
Taboo like an alchemist
Fire where you're goin'
So smoulder
These kids are only gonna get
Older
Doesn't feel like
Much has changed
Way you move ain't
Got no grace
Painted faces crack
When the creases
Frown and it's
All around
Well free climb up their double face
Play nice for the just in case
Fake it just to add some spice
Well we don't need no fire
On no bridge on troubled water
But the sparks look so damn good at night
Shit don't even get me high
Was this just one big waste of time?
Well somethin' heart
Please understand that
I've let grey skies
Fill my head
With talk of something better
But you know I'll be just fine
It's shock and animus
Rock analogous
Camel like a sewing thread
Taboo like an alchemist
Fire where you're goin'
So smoulder
These kids are only gonna get
Older 'cause it's
Shock and animus
Rock analogous
Camel like a sewing thread
Taboo like an alchemist
Fire where you're goin'
So smoulder
These kids are only gonna get
Older

Tides
04:38

On the house that I left today
Splinter marks on the holidays
And the signs that would bring me back
To my old bivouac
Moving pictures of a modern face
Line the walls with their timeless grace
Eyes are cloudy but the soul less tame
Not the same
I can't say
I'm comin' back down
I'm comin' back down
I'm comin' round
And tides can wait
If I come back I'll be carried away
Ooooo oh
I'm comin' back down
I'm comin' back down
I'm comin' round and
Tides can wait
I'm comin' back and I'm carried away
There's a child with candles for hands
Candles for hands, meltin' his hands
There's a man with waves in his head
Waves in his head, waves to the dead
I can't say
I'm comin' back down
I'm comin' back down
I'm comin' round
And tides can wait
If I come back I'll be carried away
Ooooo oh
I'm comin' back down
I'm comin' back down
I'm comin' round and
Tides can wait
I'm comin' back and I'm carried away
Oh and I can't say
I'm comin' back
Today no no no
I can't say
I'm comin' back down
I'm comin' back down
I'm comin' round
And tides can wait
If I come back I'll be carried away
Ooooo oh
I'm comin' back down
I'm comin' back down
I'm comin' round and
Tides can wait
I'm comin' back and I'm carried away

Inertia
04:01
|

I can feel it
The sky is cavin' in
Comin' over and
Down, let the riptide cuddle in
Concrete shoes around your feet
Heat from friction
My mind is wearin' thin
Comin' over I'll
Wait around for you to
Break the surface from beneath
Side eyes
Tongue tied
Wash my mind out
In the riptide
Slip into the background
And feel the noise
Feel so
Brand new
Let inertia bring me back
To you
I can feel this
My mind is cavin' in
Comin' over and
Down, let the riptide cuddle in
Concrete shoes around your feet
Heat from friction
My soles are wearin' thin
Melted rubber, I'll
Wait around for you to
Break the surface from beneath
Side eyes
Tongue tied
Wash my mind out in the riptide
Slip into the background
And feel the noise
Feel so
Brand new
From my socks down to my
Shoes
Side eyes
Tongue tied
Wash my mind out in the riptide
Slip into the background
And feel the noise
Feel so
Brand new
From my socks down to my
Shoes
Side eyes
Tongue tied
Wash my mind out
In the riptide
Slip into the background
And feel the noise
Feel so
Brand new
Let inertia bring me back
To you

For What It's Worth
03:42

Father Birchwood I've
Somethin' to confess
Somethings bothering
My mind
And every moment with this
Screen between us feels like
Wasted time
What is it worth if I can
Feel it in my chest
What is it worth, feels like I'm
Dyin' at my best
And it would be some twisted
Joke if this were just some
Test of mine
No parable or lamb
Could make me understand
There's fire on the mount
My head is in the clouds
His eyes green like the sea
Will burrow right through me
Oh I'm sitting on the shore
Just waiting for the storm
Seems so silly now that
I'm still sitting here
My robes black and white like
Excitement and fear
But I know that I can
Take it all as long as you
Are near
What is it worth if I can
Feel it in my chest
What is it worth, feels like I'm
Dyin' at my best
And it would be some twisted
Joke if this were just some
Test of mine
No parable or lamb
Could make me understand
There's fire on the mount
My head is in the clouds
His eyes green like the sea
Will burrow right through me
Oh I'm sitting on the shore
Just waiting for the storm
No parable or lamb
Could make me understand
There's fire on the mount
My head is in the clouds
His eyes green like the sea
Will burrow right through me
Oh I'm sitting on the shore
Just waiting for the storm

Tortoise never wins if
Rabbit doesn't sleep a wink
Sometimes slow and steady
Isn't what it seems
Baby steps for me will
Remain leaps for Earth
Though it hardly seems the
Path that I deserve
And it feels like I'm on fire
But I've got chills
I like to pretend
This porcelain white dome 'round my head
Can grant a way
For me to come back down to her
Fix my thoughts on you as I feel the
Sunlight split my cells in two
There's no way
That you could know how much this burns
You know the sky out here still
Glitters black and blue
Like I'm stitchin' up some
Giant cosmic bruise
Hard not to feel so lonely
Try hard as I might
Thought that I'd just go meekly
Into that black night
And it feels like I'm on fire
But I've got chills
I like to pretend
This porcelain white dome 'round my head
Can grant a way
For me to come back down to her
Fix my thoughts on you as I feel the
Sunlight split my cells in two
There's no way
That you could know how much this burns
I like to pretend
This porcelain white dome 'round my head
Can grant a way
For me to come back down to her
Fix my thoughts on you as I feel the
Sunlight split my cells in two
There's no way
That you could know how much this burns
I like to pretend
Porcelain white dome 'round my head
Can grant a way
For me to come back down to her

And I'll write summer songs in the winter
When our familiar rain turns to white ice
And all the while my veil grows thinner
While the sky pours down like your bright eyes
'Cause you're countin' joules in your food
Enthalpic changes of your mood
And I can try to make you feel better
Oh it's the unknown that we can't find
Map the chemistry of your mind
And I can just keep wishing for blue skies
'Cause you're countin' joules in your food
Enthalpic changes of your mood
And I can try to make you feel better
Oh it's the unknown that we can't find
Map the chemistry of your mind
And I can just keep wishing for blue skies
