The Pendulum Divines
03:27
|

Undressing all you've ever done
Assembled in superficial song
Am I right?
Am I right to will to life?
Intelligable
The blessings we receive falling just outside the frame
You listen to your heart
And watch it as it swings
The blessings we receive falling just outside the frame
You listen to your heart
The pendulum divines
Birthing true meloncholia
Here's one for you
More for later
All in line, forever
And in time, a shiver
The blessings we receive falling just outside the frame
You listen to your heart
And watch it as it swings
The pendulum deceives in every single way
You listen to your heart
The pendulum divines

Our pride and joy will be arriving soon
All the men in uniform are set about the room
Level best
I did my
I did my
Level best
I did my
A foot shuffle
Split level with a view
Our little devil's secret spawns anew
Level best
I did my
I did my
Level best
I did my
The sun let me down

Oh yeah
I give it to a boneyard
I will bury this and busy with the wreath
Mostly I am on the shoulder
Waiting, watching out for him
There's a temper boiling over
We must try and stay together
A mirror sent and a curtsy ought
To help us try to stay together
There's a temper boiling over
We must try and stay together
(there's a principle at stake here)
A mirror sent and a curtsy ought
(dance able, dance able)
To help us try to stay together
(dance able, dance able)
There's a temper boiling over
(Jokes aside, I dance away,
I dowse a fire and I dance all day)

Pour Silver
02:26
|

Come over
Pour silver
Pour silver
On all shoulders
I'm finding it hard to reach this
Are there feelers sent for me
I am finding it hard to read
All this seasoned entropy
Embellish defenses
This roller coaster
It leaves a wake of pure silver
For my love, for my love, oh my love, oh
We don't overreact
Just deliver the contract
As the effigy sinks in your skin
I'm finding it hard to reach this
Are there feelers sent for me
I am finding it hard to read
All this seasoned entropy

Life Line
04:12

Yesterday a ball of unaddressed mail
Ascended into the clouds
I could hardly read a word as it tumbled
Upwards to cross
Upwards to cross
Your line
Your line
Where is it?
Your line
Your life line
Where is it?
Yesterday a well of good intentions
Descended into the ground
I only remember you when you were down down down
When you were not you never came around
I only remember you when you were down
I only remember you when you were down
Your line
Your line
Where is it?
Your line
Your life line
Where is it?
He's a fortune teller
It's a way to explain it all
He sits masters sessions
He's not sure
He's certain

I will
I will
Gently go to sleep and dream
Of when I was a child
Things were so such simpler then
But there was the strangest smell of summer!
Take a chance to fade
January lies
It's all a phase
A phase that you can change
Your mind and pay
the exact going rate
And return to sender!
Let the rivulets of summer
Come on
Let the rivulets of summer
Run On!

A weakling
A weak link
I'll wait
I've been down
Messed around
In certain circles
There's a line that one of us sees
A fall in Hollywood is safe, but seldom seen
Why's it always me?
Shut up!
Get in the chariot
I've been down
Messed around
In certain circles
There's a line that one of us sees

A Man to Avoid
02:52
|

This here dress
I want you to put it on
This here Foley
I want you to make the sound
Desire
Disgust
This is a man to avoid
You fall in late,
You fall out with him
This is a man to avoid
He'll pour his name into your veins
And shame you in a crowd
This is a man to avoid
Desire
Disgust

On Trapeze

Swing you aught to
Swing it back to
I don't need any more
Equilibrium stalls
Take me, take me to the water
Help me gut the silos
Cos the less you carry, the less you worry
Dried up flue
Let in something new
I don't need any more
Equilibrium soars
Take me, take me to the water
Help me gut the silos
Cos the less you carry, the less you worry
You worry you worry...
Do you love me
Like I love you
Waiting for this moment to arrive

Those were the days
Safe little wagers
Now I keep it clean
Too dazed to admire
Those were the days
Safe little wagers
Now I keep it clean
Too dazed to admire
The pawns in this race
are born in an order
This conversation has me wondering
If you were ever in this fight
Soon come the rains now
Bring out the pontoons
I am the vessel,
but you're not the ocean
We are two ships sinking, sinking
In the night
Latency phase
It will take ages
We're thick as thieves
Explain to the choir
And now a shade of old fixations
Has been set free
Slaked in a line
The pawns in this race
are born in an order
This conversation has me wondering
If you were ever in this fight
Soon come the rains now
Bring out the pontoons
I am the vessel,
but you're not the ocean
We are two ships sinking, sinking
In the night
That's all
That's all
I forced this all to end
I tell you I forced this all to end
A dupe to multiply
That's all
That's all
I forced this all to end
A furious force en mass descended
A dupe to multiply!

The Sun Room
01:17

Bedside's got that flame
Pouring, pouring, you know
New light tendrils
They can play.
Little games
I saw through the window
A circular sofa
Arranged like they said to
For the sun to come into
The sun room.
The sun room.
