talk with me though i get uneasy part of you and still so unfamiliar we have lingered long in stillness can we flutter there we are in the night we get lost in the flick of a light and there we are in the night there we are left me blind walking off a high fall the vines i had grown for eyes dropping downward to catch you in the moonlight there we are in the night we get lost in the flick of a light and there we are in the night there we are heaven on earth is this light in this moment heaven on earth is this light how we know it heaven and earth aligned, oh heaven and earth aligned have i gone too far? can i let it rest? why’d you go so far?

Nearer Still 04:05
when i lose my voice, when i reach out to you going deeper you’re the flock of birds flying around my house your beaks’ full get alone and get high half is love half in dreaming every single time nearer still draw me in though the dark is nigh, i’m here in between every petal’s hue though the dark is nigh, i’m here in between all your blossom show me the door try and tell me what’s her name it’s a dark shadow for a flower soft as you get alone and get high half is love half in dreaming every single time nearer still draw me in though the dark is nigh, i’m here in between every petal’s hue though the dark is nigh, i’m here in between every petal’s hue and though the dark is nigh, i’m here in between all your blossom though the dark is nigh, i’m here in between every petal’s hue

Breakers 03:40
i’ve been away a summer wave warned me hell under water a summer wave warmed me up oh, wake me up oh, wake me breakers roll us out on the shore breakers roll us out on the shore i’ve been drowning the waves for you i’ve been drowning the waves for you have you gone and drifted out? how can i get back to you? breakers roll us out on the shore breakers roll us out on the shore
4.
i do hold back as a silent sort i get called back in this silencer there’s a silence in my ringing ears there’s no way to go home there’s no way to see farther we grow tired at the sound of it let’s get back in our hollow moulds you get caught in that hazel spit i get high as the sun will rise set you off mother, it’s got to wait our love is on the other side we shy away from love on the other side our love’s on the other side for when we wake we grow tired of all of it we fall back in our hollow moulds i get high as the sun will rise can’t undo what we never find
