Then at the calendar close
What do you know, do you know, do you know? Oh...
There at the back of the house
I saw your feet, saw your face, saw your mouth
Open the window again
I left my keys in the sofa cushion
My face is just wet from the snow
What do you know, do you know, do you know? Oh...
Fog in a beige baby blue kinda place
Muted tones and microphones
The wind is half asleep, the water's wide awake
Sandy Sound, what do you call home?
Sandy Sound, what do you call home?
An island on the driftwood
Would you tell me why I could . . .
An island on the driftwood
Would you tell me why I could . . .
Sandy Sound
I thought I saw in the clouds
I thought I heard it in the ground
I thought I knew you'd come around
I didn't want it
I didn't want it show
I didn't need it
I didn't need you know . . .
Fog in a beige baby blue kinda place
Muted tones and microphones
The wind is half asleep, the water's wide awake
Sandy Sound, what do you call home?
Sandy Sound, what do you call home?
Fog in a beige baby blue kinda place
Muted tones and microphones
The wind is half asleep, the water's wide awake
Sandy Sound, what do you call home?
Sandy Sound, what do you call home?
An island on the driftwood
Would you tell me why I could . . .
An island on the driftwood
Would you tell me why I could . . .
Oh, an island on the driftwood
Would you tell me why I could . . .
Oh, an island on the driftwood
Would you tell me why I could not stay away?

I said I don't
Said I don't wanna mess around
I said I'm done
Said I am done fucking around
I said I don't
Said I don't wanna mess around
I said I'm done
Said I am done fucking around
I know you know I know
that you want me to stay
but if you want me
then you're gonna have to say it
Said I don't
Said I don't wanna mess around
I said I'm done
Said I am done fucking around
I know this place
I'm not here to replace her
Take a look at my face
And say you wanna walk away
Just ask me baby
And I'll stay with you a while before the rain (2, 3)
I said I don't
Said I don't wanna mess around
I said I'm done
Said I am done fucking around
I said I don't
Said I don't wanna mess around
I said I'm done
Said I am done fucking around
What happened to you
I know, I know my excuse
Do you really wanna make this about me?
I prefer to blame it on my family
Oh . . .
We got an awful lot to talk about
I could give you something you could play off
It'd give me something I could write about
When I'm sick of losing at the playoffs
So afraid of love
You so afraid of love
You so afraid of love
You so afraid of love
I know this place
I'm not here to replace her
Take a look at my face
And say you wanna walk away
Just ask me baby
And I'll stay with you a while before the rain
I said I don't
Said I don't wanna mess around
I said I'm done
Said I am done fucking around
I know you know I know
that you want me to stay
but if you want me
then you're gonna have to say it
I said I don't
Said I don't wanna mess around
I said I'm done
Said I am done fucking around
I am . . .
(I said I don't, said I don't wanna mess around, I said I'm done, said I am done fucking around)
(I know you know I know that you want me to stay, but if you want me then you're gonna have to say it)
I am . . .
(I said I don't, said I don't wanna mess around, I said I'm done, said I am done fucking around)
(I know you know I know that you want me to stay, but if you want me then you're gonna have to say it)
I am . . .
I am . . .
I am . . .
(just ask me baby, and I'll stay with you a while before the . . .)
Done.

Cannibal
03:57
|

In a cove
down by the waterfall
fhere is a door
fhat wasn't there before
and I was bored
so I just built a home
and now I'm warm
and have a door
But I'm alone
so then I call a friend
but she's not home
so I call you instead
but I don't know
how to direct you here
because I don't
have an address
So here we go
out in the bitter cold
and you were told
that it's a miracle
and I was sold
on what was possible
and now we're old
and unexcitable
Oh, oh, oh
Well I don't know what I was waiting for
Oh, oh
What do you expect from a cannibal?
I am just
beyond the edge of town
and I am lust...
ing for the bitter sound
and I am hold . . .
ing out for something more
something that's just
beyond the corridor
I see my friends
I see the city hall
I see the ghosts
of what was there before
and I am cer . . .
tain I could start a war
with just a shovel and a pail
Oh, oh, oh
Well I don't know what I was waiting for
Oh, oh
What do you expect from a cannibal?
Oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Well I don't know what I was waiting for
Oh, oh
What do you expect from a cannibal?
1234 tell me I am wanted here
1234 tell me I don't really care
Do I have to make a choice
(1234 tell me I am wanted here)
Between playing the game and getting the same?
(1234 tell me I don't really care)
Do I have to make a choice
(1234 tell me I am wanted here)
Between playing the game and getting the same?
(1234 tell me I don't really care)
Do I have to make a choice
(1234 tell me I am wanted here)
Between playing the game and getting the same?
(1234 tell me I don't really care)
Oh, do I have to make a choice
(1234 tell me I am wanted here)
Between playing the game and getting the same?
(1234 tell me I don't really care)
In a boat
down by the riverbed
there is a note
that no one's ever read
and I am hop . . .
ing it can tell me where
where I can find
a decent meal
It's getting cold
so I get in the boat
to find the cove
down by the waterfall
behind the door
where I just built a home
so I can rest
my weary head
Oh, oh, oh
Well I don't know what I was waiting for
Oh, oh
What do you expect from a cannibal?
Oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Well I don't know what I was waiting for
Oh, oh
What do you expect from a cannibal?
Oh . . .
From a cannibal?
Ooo . . .oh . . .
From a cannibal?
From a cannibal?

Cry
04:49
|
|||
Longer than a revolution
I could have built an empire in this time
You'll never see me cry
You'll never see me cry
You'll never see me cry
You'll never see me cry
Faster than the final bullet
When I'm the one who just won't let it die
You'll never see me cry
You'll never see me cry
You'll never see me cry
You'll never see me cry
Every single turn
is not an invitation to be ghost when you're gone
(to be a ghost when you're gone, when you're gone, when you're)
And I know that you burn
But you don't get immunity to your dirt, to your harm
('ty to your dirt, to your harm, to your harm)
Ooo . . .
It's in the way that you're faking your fortress
It's in the way that you're folding your arms
It's in the way that you're breaking a window
While managing not to set off any alarms
You'll never see me cry
You'll never see me cry
You'll never see me cry
You'll never see me cry
Every single turn
is not an invitation to be ghost when you're gone
(to be a ghost when you're gone, when you're gone, when you're)
And I know that you burn
But you don't get immunity to your dirt, to your harm
('ty to your dirt, to your harm, to your harm)
No . . .
You'll never see me cry
You'll never see me cry
You'll never see me cry
You'll never see me cry
You'll never see me . . .
You'll never see me cry
You'll never see me . . .
You'll never see me cry
You'll never see me cry . . .
You'll never see me cry . . .
You'll never see me cry . . .
You're breaking, you're bursting
You can't hardly keep it inside
And quick as you know it
You're just gonna blow it
I'm sorry it's not alright
I'm sorry it's not alright
I'm sorry it's not alright
I'm sorry it's not alright
You'll never see me . . .
You'll never see me cry
You'll never see me cry . . . Ooo. . .

Fire
05:42
|
|||
I don't know
why I even try
I never give this much attention
to the rest of my life
And I'd still follow you home
if you want me to
I'm on fire
I'm on fire
I'm on fire
I'm on fire
I wanted to fake my death
But I was forced to make choice
between disaster and regret
and still this tightness in my chest
I'm on fire
I'm on fire
I'm on fire
I'm on fire
Do we want different things?
Or do we want them at different times?
Do our words change a thing?
Or have we already made our minds?
Made our minds
Made our minds
Made our minds
Made our minds
I know you're not trying
to make a fool outta me
but maybe try trying at all
If you wanna make a comeback
then you gotta go away first
But I miss you
I miss your face
And I guess I miss
having a place to go
I'm on fire
I'm on fire
I'm on fire, ooo . . .
I'm on fire, I'm on fire, I'm on fire, I'm on fire
I'm on fire
I'm on fire
I'm on fire
I'm on fire
Do we want different things?
Or do we want them at different times?
Do our words change a thing?
Or have we already made our minds?
Made our minds
Made our minds
Made our minds
Made our minds
I don't what else to sing about
I don't anything else that hurts
I don't what else to sing about
I don't anything else that hurts
I don't know who else to care about
(You never told me, you never said a thing)
I don't know anything else that works
(You always leave me in the dark)
I don't know what else to sing about
(You never told me, you never said a thing)
I don't know anything
(You always leave me)

Little Bartender

Oh, little bartender
where do you go at night?
Do you stay up to the
break of the morning light?
Are you tucked safe in your bed
are you sleeping tight?
Oh, little bartender
where do you go at night?
You were looking to the west
when the engine rolled
Do you think that you already
found your home?
I was hung up on the east
when the curtain called
I was hung up on myself
when the world unfolded
Oh, little bartender
where do you go at night?
Do you stay up to the
break of the morning light?
Are you tucked safe in your bed
are you sleeping tight?
Oh, little bartender
where do you go at night?
Oh, little bartender
who went and broke your heart?
Pulled the rug right out
with the wind of a passing car?
I know it made you a song
I'm grateful for that
But who done you wrong?
who'd go and do that?
Ah . . .
Oh, little bartender
where do you go at night?
Do you stay up to the
break of the morning light?
Are you tucked safe in your bed
are you sleeping tight?
Oh, little bartender
where do you go at night?
I remember when you were 17
had your face stuck in the sand
and your pockets clean
Thinking, oh, why the hell does the world
wanna magazine, darling oh
Fuck them and their friends
lemme hear you sing
And I said, fuck them and their friends
lemme hear you sing
Oh, little bartender
who went and broke your heart?
Pulled the rug right out
with the wind of a passing car?
I know it made you a song
I'm grateful for that
But who done you wrong?
who'd go and do that?
Ah . . .
Ooo . . .
Ah . . .
Ooo . . .

My mother
My father
Let it go, let it go
let it go, let it go,
let it go, let it go,
let it go
I was born as a favor
to the man behind the mirror
I was asked to deliver
some secure memorabilia
I was holding . . .
out on him
I was never to question
my closest of kin
My . . .
My mother
My father
Let it go, let it go
let it go, let it go,
let it go, let it go,
let it go
It is not fair to wonder
who was there at the table
it was not my decision
that my body was able
Like a flash I was out
with the flickering light
I wasn't ready by morning
but, God, by the night I was
My mother
My father
Let it go, let it go
let it go, let it go,
let it go, let it go,
let it go
My mother
My father
My teacher
My lover
My other
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Ah, ah, ah, ah
Let it go, let it go,
let it go, let it go,
let it . . . let it go
You are so beautiful
but I can't be with you
I've more . . .
important things to do
But if you wait for me
by the willow tree
Maybe one day
I'll return to thee
You are so beautiful
but I can't be with you
I've more . . .
important things to do
But if you wait for me
by the willow tree
Maybe one day
I'll return to thee
My . . .
My mother
My father
Let it go, let it go
let it go, let it go,
let it go, let it go,
let it go
I, I, I, I, I, I, I
I'd love to see you try
to take it away from me, oh
Never a holier object existed
I took a vow to the man who insisted
My mother
My father
My teacher
My lover
My other
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Ah, ah, ah, ah
Let it go, let it go
let it go, let it go,
let it go, let it go,
let it go, oh
Let it go, let it go
let it go, let it go,
let it go, let it go,
let it go, oh
Let it go, let it go
let it go, let it go,
let it go, let it go,
let it go, let it go
Let it go, let it go,
let it go, let it go,
let it . . . let it go

This Time

This time
I really tried to get it
But every time I lose it
It's not my time
I get it
But why do I
I . . .
try to fight it all the time
when I oughta let it go
I oughta let it go
This time
I'll leave it on an airplane
and even if I come to find
I miss that time
I'll leave it all behind
I'll leave it on an aeroplane
never to return again
I'll feel so light, I'll never fight
I'll never have to fight
Oh time,
you got taken away by fireflies
Oh . . . oh . . .
Oh time,
you are masterfully minded
I don't know why I try to fight it
You're gonna have me anyhow
This ti . . .I'm
not gonna be afraid
of what you gonna do
or what you gonna say
I'm not letting you
have your cake and eat it, too
and I'm telling you we're through
yeah, and it's not me it's you
Oh time,
you got taken away by fireflies
Oh . . . oh . . .
Oh time,
you are masterfully minded
I don't know why I try to fight it
You're gonna have me anyhow
