Movies

I was making little pictures in the fog on the window
And you were saying how the wind blows from the edge of your seat
And I was spinning out a record that would always skip on track five
But it never even slowed down on the night that he died
I was walking in the forest and I was making up a chorus
How do I know how to do this? Remember everything green
And I was making little movies and you were saying “wow, they move me”
And then my heart started pounding like when I wanna be seen
I just wanna be, oh I just wanna be
I was floating in the garden and it wasn’t even hard then
But I’ve only told a few friends, I know it’s hard to believe
And I was facing little sculptures in a gallery in Stockholm
Felt it down into my fingers, they’ve got a body like me
They’ve got a body like, oh they’ve got a body like me
What a glow on what you’ll never know
And even when you grow
I always try to find what’s in my glistening eyes
They help me realize there’s so much more
Oh I never wanted to know (x12)

Off-Season

Don’t give a reason
I don’t need advice, oh it’s just in the way
In the off-season
Now that you’re here you’re determined to stay
She goes coast to coast riding it out
Through the window I remember the sound
We were figuring we’d figure it out
By now
What are you feeling?
Can you describe it and will it make sense?
And it was so freezing
Kicking the snow just to know she exists
She goes coast to coast riding it out
Through the window I remember the sound
We were figuring we’d figure it out
By now, by now
Tell you things I think you’d never believe
She stands face to face ready to leave
Elsewhere takes her where she wanted to be
Right now

Hang out for the first time
I think you’re someone and I never lie
The way that you caught my eye
Took me outside and looked at the sky
We go out just to end up close in a crowd
I never knew you but I’d seen you around
Hit song, well it’s about time
Everyone’s lonely and everyone’s fine
Smoking, standing outside
We think we’re lucky and we’ve got that right
We go out just to end up close in a crowd
I never knew you but I’d seen you around
Porch light, end of the night
Whatever happened to making the time?
I recollected half a second
But every hour brushes past
I don’t believe in feeling nothing
I know you think I’m so unkind
We go out just to end up close in a crowd
I never knew you but I’d seen you around
Porch light, end of the night
Whatever happened to making the time?

It was getting late but we still stayed
Didn’t make a difference anyway
When it was time to leave I took the keys
Yeah, I’m good to drive carefully

Tile Floor
04:03
|

The pressure’s on to notice something
We always talk about the ghosts
I am still convinced that nothing is what I’ll always want the most
I get all caught up in the same things
I get all caught up in the things that move
So you try to make it real while I try to feel new
But we’ll never get there, we’re always arriving
The end of the line turns around
You will still recognize every surface in sight
From the ones that remain to be found
And they will never be found
You go spinning in circles like you did before
You got all that you came for but you needed more
You go spinning in circles on the tile floor
You got all that you came for but you needed more (x3)
You go spinning in circles like you did before
(And it takes you back, oh it takes you back)
You got all that you came for but you needed more
You go spinning in circles on the tile floor
You got all that you came for but you needed more
You go spinning in circles like you did before
(And it takes you back, oh it takes you back)
You got all that you came for but you needed more
You go spinning in circles on the tile floor
(And it takes you back, oh it takes you back)
You got all that you came for but you needed more (x5)

Something More
03:14
|

Lately I’ve been starting to imagine something more
All I want is someone leaning on my door
There’s no further reason to pretend like I’m unmoved
We are going somewhere, I’ve got nothing left to prove
I’ve got nothing left to prove
Coffee in the kitchen, all my books are on the shelf
It’s a sunny morning, it’s not complicated now
You are getting older, it will be like this for years
Even in October, you’ll be getting over fears
Take me to the biggest ocean and say something about my salty eyes
I guess this is pure devotion
Can you anticipate surprise?
I’ve been holding out for things that I don’t even know
I’ve been getting used to spending so much alone
If you ask a question, it will fall flat on the floor
It’s a new dimension and you can always ask for more
Take me to the biggest ocean and say something about my salty eyes
I guess this is pure devotion
Can you anticipate surprise?
I wanna be all you’re after and I wanna be perfectly alive
I got to the biggest ocean and I shout out
Why oh why oh why? (x9)

Sink Drain
03:39
|

I was patient, could have thrown it all away
I don’t hate this, there’s just nothing left to say
You were folding up my time, you were always on my mind
In the morning and in the middle of the night
If you don’t want me to say what I’ve been wanting to say
Then just don’t give me a reason and don’t give me my way
And it’s been getting the best of me, what do you want from me?
Is this what you want from me? Should I stay away?
You’ve been acting in an unusual way
But it’s so thrilling going nowhere just the same
And everyone I ever knew knew everything I heard from you
In the morning and in the middle of the night
If you don’t want me to say what I’ve been wanting to say
Then just don’t give me a reason and don’t give me my way
And it’s been getting the best of me, what do you want from me?
Is this what you want from me? Should I stay away?
Should I stay away?
And I’ve been having the same dreams
I know what they all mean
You seem so sweet
So take me out to a sink drain
Everywhere else is just more of the same

Perfect Again
04:08

Outline everything in sight
It took time but that’s alright
You’ve got everything in life
In a room in the right light
In a room in the right light
In the kitchen there they are
Telling jokes and falling hard
And when the party’s in the hall
You’re upstairs and hear it all
We knew more about the shape that held us silent just to say
You’ve been right here all along
You spoke sitting in the light
And you knew you were right
’Cause you’ve got everything in life
In a room in the right light
In a room right light
In the kitchen there they are
Telling jokes and falling hard
And when the party’s in the hall
You’re upstairs and hear it all
We knew more about the shape that held us silent just to say
You’ve been right here all along
In several years
The moment clears
A simple sign
Of what you’ve always hoped to find
And you hold it near
The way that you’re in
A shimmer so thin
You wait for the day
It always gets away
To be perfect again
In the kitchen there they are
Telling jokes and falling hard
And when the party’s in the hall
You’re upstairs and hear it all
We knew more about the shape that held us silent just to say
You’ve been right here all along

Flowers in the Dark
02:27

There’s a garden on the roof
There’s a week I’m free in June
There’s a place we always we go
When we’re home
There is no one on the road
Can you play Boys on the Radio?
I like to hear it when I drive
Late at night
Like a flower in the dark
Always there when we are not
We are leaning on the edge
Of what we’ve got
I am always coming back
Wonder what you think of that
I hear a buzzing in the sky
It terrifies
Like a flower in the dark
Always there when we are not
We are leaning on the edge
Of what we’ve got
Like a flower in the dark
Always there when we are not
We are leaning on the edge
Of what could end
But we never stop
