Grave Desecrator

Open a window and let the sunlight in
Woke shapes emerge from a torrent of warmth
For a limited time, your unlimited mind
Will cut the power at the source
Oh, oh, oh grave desecrator
Oh, oh, oh grave desecrator
Snatching defeat from the jaws of victory
I almost lost you, then I did
I was also born in a crossfire hurricane
But you don’t see me going on about it
Oh, oh, oh grave desecrator
Oh, oh, oh grave desecrator
I don’t mind waiting in line
Subtle like a hammer
Quick is your disease
I’d get nothing done if I did what I pleased
Oh, oh, oh grave desecrator
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh grave desecrator
I don’t mind waiting in line

Honey (To A Bee)
03:20

When I asked you to hit me, I didn’t think you’d hit me so hard
The snow came, and I stayed
I’m down here counting stars
If we put our money together
Maybe we could get away
Take a bus to someplace unfamiliar
Or stay with your friends for a few days
You and me- frighteningly free
You and me
Force-feeding honey to a bee
In the glue traps of the city
Active Surplus for the soul
They’ve taken down all the bus shelters
And left us standing out here in the cold
You and me-Beautiful and free
You and me
Force-feeding honey to a bee
The nighttime is fleeting, and morning makes no guarantees to the likes of you and me

Enough Light
03:55

Enough Light- Enough light to guide me home tonight
Like a dizzy spell, the words they fell so thoughtlessly from me
Unseasonably warm, and fixing to storm, are the bluest eyes that I’ve ever seen
And now I believe
Lost-to the oceans of time
smile- as you’re mourning your mind
Enough Light- Enough light to guide me home tonight
Tonight, Tonight -Enough light
Parallel compression and depression got a hold of me
The conclusion of the broadcast day on the local TV
Means it’s time for sleep
Wait- for the mood to arrive
I’ve only lost things I don’t want to find
You can count it if you’d like but its all there…

Abdicate The Throne

Abdicate the throne my darling, and I might let you walk away
Abdicate the throne my darling, and I might let you walk away
Its not the place of the evening to make excuses for the dawn
I will never forget you, but I might forget you’re gone
Abdicate the throne my darling, and I might let you walk away
We were at a crossroads my hair was at an awkward stage
Crying by the fountain in an empty Ontario place
…and evidently everything (x3)
Please reconsider your hard-line stance… on me
Abdicate the throne my darling, and I might let you walk away
Abdicate the throne my darling, and I might let you walk away

I wanted to tell you that I never hated you
And if there’s a heaven up there, take care, and I hope that they’ll take you
I wanted to love you, I wanted to know you
I wanted to turn off the dream machine, but I didn’t know how to
You were always in my heart, even when you weren’t on my mind
The things I remember are vague and uncertain
Then sometimes they seem so clear like I might become a real person
The crashing of plates, the warmth of pajamas
Closed door on the floor in my room
Keeping in all that mattered
You were always in my heart, even when you weren’t on my mind
I guess we ran out of time

Sky To Fall
07:35
|

Ask again you might convince me
Dig deeper, you might strike gold
You promised to give your heart to me
The rest of you is free to go
I have slept in the den of vipers
I have entered my Carlsberg years
We’ve constructed a ship from indifference
and lowered our anchor in tears
I’m no longer waiting for the sky to fall
I’m no longer waiting on you at all
The ones we choose to follow
Possess the gift of the gab
Jesus Christ gave me his life for me
I wonder if he’d like it back
Can you ask him if the devil will find work for all these idling cars?
The potholes in this city are like uncrated distant stars
I’m no longer waiting for the sky to fall
I’m no longer waiting on you at all
Last night the virgin Mary appeared to me in a dream
She wanted to talk about music and boys
She just wanted to be fifteen (seventeen)
Ask again you might convince me
Dig deeper, you might strike gold
You promised to give your heart to me
The rest of you is free to go
