Plague Under The Portico

Today I am a different man
I fall to pieces where I stand
And the more obsessed I got
The worse I slept the less I thought
The dealers they don't want you dead
They wanna steal your soul instead
Everybody thinks they're going through a tight wind
Furrowed brows, folded arms, holding signs
But there's plague under the portico you better get up and go
But I don't want to be I don't want to be but I don't want to be I don't want to be
but I do want to be but I do want to be
But I don't want to be I don't want to be
But I do want to be Don't you want to be alone, all alone
Ah, tis the dead risen again
Marcus recognized the evil inside men
I asked her please to tell him not to come by
I can't do any more than that, can I?
I don't understand anymore I don't understand at all
You really are a strange one aren't you?
The animals are marching in twos
But there's plague under the portico you better get up and go
With the plague under the portico you better let it all go
But I don't want to be I don't want to be but I don't want to be I don't want to be
but I do want to be but I do want to be
But I don't want to be I don't want to be
But I do want to be don't you want to be alone, so alone
The obstacle in the way becomes the way

Flames & Waves

Scan the tree lines search the bay
How'd you hit from half a mile away?
You don't see rainbows every day
I see a orangey glow a half a mile away
Ooh, the flames are raging now
Soon, the waves will put them out
You're always smiling
Pretending not to know
how every grain of sand eventually falls below
Ooh, the flames are raging now
Soon, the waves will put them out
We're friends with no-one, we play our violins all the time
addressing scars, the wounds you don't wash with iodine
we're smooth, we're cool, we're paying off our debts
you became The One, but no one has told you yet . . . no one's told us yet
Shade my eyes from the sight,
I'm not disassociating, I'm alright
They offered to bring us too
Should we have gone?
All the sepia-tones are dead and gone
Ooh, the flames are raging now
Soon, the waves will put them out

Let's climb Mt. Fog it's a beautiful day out
and this goddamn sunshine is burning my eyes out
And I'm not afraid of the dark anymore
So let's climb Mt. Fog it's a beautiful day out
and this goddamn sunshine is burning my eyes out
So let's go where we know everything is gonna be alright
And I've got nothing left to do
And I've got nothing left to prove
But how'd you know?
Let's climb Mt. Fog it's a beautiful day out
and this goddamn sunshine is burning my eyes out
And I'm not afraid of the dark anymore
So let's go where we know everything is gonna be alright

Enormous Oak Tree

To have no opinion is a fine option
Speaking backwards with no sound
Flipping pages upside down
Every day a new outrage
I'm alright but I'm not OK
Shower breakfast start the car
9 hours til the bar
Knock em back, brush teeth, to bed
Then do it all again
An enormous oak tree with a cool and pleasant shade
But what do I know?
I'm so comatose
Arrive on time leave it unsaid
Staying late just to get ahead
Walk about from here to there
But don't interrupt and please don't stare
An enormous oak tree with a cool and pleasant shade
The ocean is never truly blue, did you ever notice it?
Your life, it is never truly about you, did you ever notice?
The blue, blue sky, the sea so wide
The mountains they do not care
About the planes up in the air
And should they fall into the sea
It won't really make a difference to me
An enormous oak tree with a cool and pleasant shade
You'll never find me, I am otherwise engaged

The Distance
04:38
|

|
Walk through the night
Walk to the light
Circle of light
Beaming down from the sky
Up we climb, up we fly
Leaving it behind
Leaving it all behind
I don't mind
It didn't even cross my mind
Gravity falls, gravity kills, gravity's gone
I can see everyone
And I don't care where I'm going
Distance between stars
Distance between cells
Distance between the spirals of a seashell
Space is a movie where everything happens at the same time
And everyone says all the same lines
And I don't care where I'm going
And I don't care where I've been

The people all shout out "Nothing's wrong"
They're sharpening their bayonets
Can't you hear the trains rolling out?
You suitcases are full but you're not going anywhere
Left me wondering what it would take to leave a mark
Well someone had to start
The resistance and sabotage
When everyone says "Nothing's wrong! No! Nothing's wrong!"
If what was written and what was done
it resonated with anyone
who just didn't dare utter it out loud
Such a fine, sunny day and I gotta go
To the stranger sailing past
Please untie us from the mast
Because we just can't afford to make that same mistake again
If what was written and what was done
it resonated with anyone
who just didn't dare utter it out loud
Such a fine, sunny day and I gotta go
No one ever dreams of growing up a martyr
No one ever thinks they have a bullseye on their back
If what we said and what we did
resonated with any kid
who just didn't dare say it out loud
Such a fine, sunny day and I gotta go
