I'm Cured 03:16
lyrics
buy track
A ballerina on a fire escape So gracefully enters the pearly gates You are a lucky one Untied to these earthly bonds The orchestral pit under the heavy lights Where the oboes sit an apple lands tonight You are a lucky one Untied to these earthly bonds On a serving tray flavored with crème de menthe You eat a bad sorbet, you don't have time to sit You are a lucky one Untied to these earthly bonds But when my morning comes I'll gather all my hopes When I see a couple kiss I pray to God they choke And in a diver's bell Noting the lowest things Above the storm played hell And the boat had to leave You are a lucky one Untied to these earthly bonds And I'll float away

Everyday I sit a wait Oh my life is fine You might die tonight A bomb on a train A snake in wait Oh my life is fine You don't get lucky twice Oh my life is fine You don't get lucky twice A crowded stage In a dress of white Oh my life is fine You are here tonight You can't wait To be by my side Oh my life is fine But tears are in your eyes Oh my life is fine But tears are in your eyes Waiting there In the dressing room Oh my life is fine You are here tonight A patient ear A patient eye Oh my life is fine We might get lucky twice Oh my life is fine We might get lucky twice

I Missed It 04:48
lyrics

Asleep in the daylight Awake in the moonlight Cursed by a half light And left alone A town full of galleries Passionless since the time I reached out for a sure thing And left alone Carry this message in your heart It'll listen now Ooh, I missed it You'll be rocking your baby And when he leaves You'll missing your baby And you'll be alone The tree is shady It's a blanket in the making The static from the carpet Will shock my hands Carry this message in your heart It'll listen now Ooh, I missed it

Deep in darkest memory Outside the gates of heaven Grew a tree so sugary Our stomachs could not stand The ground below was holocaust The air above was thin Out in some weird wandering Across the tracks we went Oh what a night to be alive I will become the waves that you float upon I will become the waves that you float upon Will you become the air that I pull in deep when I sing? Will you become the air that I pull in deep? Oh what a night to be alive Deep in recessed territory Far from gated splendor Open up your window Open up to let A breeze from drifting sparrow As new as any scent Braced by crackling energy Hoping to forget Oh what a night to be alive

The Pearl 03:10
lyrics

I bought a ticket on an ocean liner It's from the water that I'm writing you I stopped drinking just to keep my head cool I'm writing wishing you could do that too If everything in the world is sorrow What is this feeling that runs me through? A feeling that if I met my maker I'll walk right up in my brand new shoes I bought a ticket from a travel agent He had many things to say Did you know that a single finger Can kill a mile of coral reef? He had a laugh that turned me white as a pearl now He had a laugh and it scrubbed me clean I'm not convince that he wasn't and angel In cheap slacks confronting me If everything in the world is sorrow What is this feeling that runs me through? A feeling that if I met my maker I'll walk right up in my brand new shoes If nothing turn out like we planned it At least this side of the fence is clean At least I left a security deposit It keeps come back around you see? Everything in the world's not sorrow There's a feeling that runs me through A feeling that if I met my maker I'll walk right up in my brand new shoes

Stay here now and forever Count a decide of passing years There's nothing here to hold on to A series of hurdles, unending fears Break through the clouds and there is light If you can catch the wind and fly into the sky Feel free to spread your wings and leave the yard I know if you could run that you would travel far There you are, fast asleep Go wake yourself, get on you feet

lyrics

Black out the shades of the window and hide Burn all the cash in your mattress, it'll be alright When you bury your guns in the snow You bury your luck in the snow Don't believe in favors that are free Don't believe in kindness you can't see Pull out the phone from the wall Knock out the lights in the hall When you bury your guns in the snow You bury your luck in the snow Don't believe in favors that are free Don't believe in kindness you can't see Bury your dust in the snow
