Write it Out

every time I think I've got it down
i'm further off than before
too hard to tell what's there
what's there
write it out
write it out
write it out
how else
will I know?
will I know?

Nice Boy / Blow My Cover
03:34
|
|||
|
You're such a nice boy to offer
But you'd only get in the way
I cannot let you come with me
You'd only blow my cover
I know it must sound romantic
Living just to seize the day
But without a background in adventure
You'd only last me fifteen minutes
And I can't have you blow my cover
What part of go home now
Do you not understand?
It's getting late and once they
Find you've disappeared they'll send a
Search party to bring you home and
We don't want that
Don't look now, they have the place surrounded
Airships are filling the sky
I guess we're in this together
So you march out there and hand yourself over
While I slip unnoticed past their radar
I won't have you blow my cover

grown so
used to
decom
posing
i can
promise
nothing
break my
arms if
you're not
cautious
i can
promise
nothing
melt me
into
someone
different
no more
feeling
nothing

you say i'm yours
he says i'm his
don't understand
what the problem is
it can be ALLRIGHT
try not to be
so sensitive
run all you want:
i know where you live
it can be ALLRIGHT

Snow Hymn
02:36

|
one cannot remain
where one does not belong
i thought i could change
but i was wrong
you think that you will miss me
you shall not know i'm gone
there's no need to cry
i swear i'll be ok
let go of my hand
i know the way
just bid me your goodbyes
and leave me where i lay
buried under the ice again
must this always happen?
and why must i comply?

Aqua Toffana
05:35
|
|||
|
Can you keep a secret?
Promise not to tell?
Someone's slipped me aqua toffana
To ensure I don't get well
Nobody believes me
When I tell them so
I say I've been poisoned
And they just stare and ask me how I know
Well
I can feel it
Oh, I can feel it
I can feel it
Fingers at my window
Grey man at my door
He knows what I'm writing
But darling only I know who it's for
Oh, how very quickly
My tenure was spent
I had so much promise
That oftentimes I wonder where it went
Fluster, change the subject
Won't make me forget
I know Death is lurking
I just haven't seen or heard It yet
But
I can feel It
Oh, I can feel It
I can feel It
Oh, I can feel It
Ah, I can feel It
I can feel It
And if I die tomorrow
That will show you then
Leave me to my sorrow
My bill collectors, and my requiem
Leave me to my sorrow
My bill collectors, and my requiem
La-la, la-la, la-la, la-la

separate
from my ailment
i am not myself
when he smiles at me
i forget
all the doctrines
i've been fed
and contested
by what branch
branch of science
you and no one else
no one else who can
fill my heart
up with roses
in the stead
of the dark thoughts
in my head
oh my love
look what you've done
dear my love
see what you've done

On Dying (for Attention)
01:21

i've been dead for fifteen hours
no one's called or sent me flowers
oo-ah oo-ah oo-ah
sit and watch my carcass rot
death is duller than i thought
oo-ah oo-ah oo-ah

i know the way
just bid me your goodbyes
and leave me where i lay
buried under the ice again
