1. ORPHAN ANTHEM '86

We're gone but not better.
A lighted match can burn the cabin down he built.
It's not long but it matters.
Your suit and tie are much too tight in Farmersville.

My daughter's a goldmine, combing the hair of the white waves.
A fountain of saphires under the bridges of Utah.
Instilled in us ethics not by god, but by our choice.
I can't even imagine, but i can see it.

Tell them all to chop me off with left handed scissors rusting when you're touched.
On marble covered mountains, you're the brimstone

When surrounded by comfort cotton floors are of no use.
We see in our forecast what we lack in our pockets.
Encompassed by standards and we give ourselves all the credit.
I can't put my finger on it, but i can see it.

Tell them all to chalk me out with oval arms and hopscotch eyelids.
On marble covered mountains, you're my cargo



2. KYLA CRIES COLOGNE

Let me introduce you to a pair that strikes crude oil, but I see pyrite.
It is the same old pattern - the goose that feeds the gander.
They choose to act but not I.

Planting the seeds you've sown is easier than growing the rows
Let's go outside and it might restore us.
More for the fire that fights for the freeze now mechanical.

So the the pair proceeded
Another pulse defeated - can't say that I am surprised.
"It is the fly trap's color that caused the fall into her"
What is the shade that you saw?
Planting the seeds you've sown is easier than growing the rows
Let's go outside and it might restore us, oh
More for the fire that fights for the freeze now mechanical.

Bound by the salt not your earth, the hat mocks the rabbit while the bee stings the shark.
Stop the start, these are my disguises.

Planting the seeds you've sown is easier than growing the rows
Let's go outside and it might restore us, oh
More for the fire that fights for the freeze now
Let's go outside and it might restore us
More for the fire that fights for the freeze, mechanical



3. A SEAFARER'S KNOT

Lucky are the leaves of the clover.
She's diggin' for chemistry with the butcher's tools.
Shifty are the eyes of the gambler
He's making his tricks his trade
And a job well done.

Through the motions waving wishes to your confidence and eloquence.

He's turning a-green from these envious glorious things.
Applied ambitious faith that can keep us all safe.
Invoking a blue that's meant for us too.
What small amazing things we will turn to rain.

Lucky is a deer in the headlights.
Those two are as thick as thieves, not a penny more.
Shaky on the hands of the gun shy
He'd rather give up the ghost than take fight.

Through the motions waving wishes to your confidence and eloquence.

He's turning a-green from these envious glorious things.
Applied ambitious faith that can keep us all safe.
Invoking a blue that's meant for us too.
What small amazing things we will turn to rain.

Gather 'round, hold your glasses up high.
Drink to love while we wait for high tide.
Keep it short, keep it brief,
You have my word.
Gather round while we wait for high tide

He is turning a-green from these envious glorious things.
Applied ambitious faith that can keep us all safe.
Your spots,
Your seeds,
Like fur,
We're all,
A mess,
As though, we all have a another.



4. ABIGAIL

If there's a nurse that takes your ears in rations,
sets a plate to feed the stifled steel.
If there's a nurse that feeds your germ soaked dinners on a tray of bones and orange peels.

For yourself, you'd crash a secret word.
For some love, you'd fall to break your neck
