With one foot in the snow
And the other one in the air
Old man winter was falling down
And we were standing there
Like rabbits in their holes
Making others out as fools
We were learning how to laugh
While others learned to lose
Though the sun disappeared
Still it's shining in my ears
I am wrapped up in doing nothing
Frozen in fear
Now it's time for you to go
I hope you find relief
In the barest branch above you
The promise of belief

Duérmete (It's Early)
03:39

Go to sleep my little one
While the moonlight dangles
Like a sphere of little mirrors
Things aren't as bad
As they seem to appear
Go to sleep my little one
One by one all the stars appear
Holding onto little flashlights
Looking for signs
That the morning is near
You've been crying for so many years
You'd fill a lake with all your tears
Through the sleepless night you lay
In a pool of a lonely day
Go to sleep my little one
Before the sun is a counterfeit
Shining on your Sunday eyes
As I lullaby you
As I lullaby you

Stolen nights, stolen mornings
How did it feel to be a friend of mine
Broken chains, broken promises
How did you do the things you did to me
Here is my song
It won't take long
To break free from it
Here is my song
You won't take along
Furtive signs, inverted warnings
How can I be a better broken man
Stolen nights, stolen mornings
How did it feel to catch a fleeting glimpse
Here is my song
It won't take long
To break free from it
Here is my song
You won't take along

The Cats of Mirikitani

He has learned how to land on his feet
Sleeping in stars on a busy street
He is found on the ground in the cold
Wrinkled and scarred, wizened and old
Come on and catch him if you can
Because he'll be leaving and he won't come again
Come out and see him while the offer stands
It's slipping through your hands
A single rose grows from the concrete
He is the soul longing for home
And home is a secret that he can't repeat
So he has learned how to land on his feet
And I wonder at your idle tears and laughter
You know not for you think you're truly free
And I wonder in sad shame as the head turns
Oh, it's slipping through to me
Come on and catch him if you can
Because he'll be leaving and he won't come again
Come out and see him while the offer stands
It's slipping through your hands

Lapis Lazuli

Bye bye the slowly flowing river
The skyline is a tangled sheen
My soul is in the hands of my love
She smiles with one eye weeping
By the velvet lights above us
Like cosmic candles in plastic boats
She is just like I imagined
We smile with both sides burning
La la la lapis
La la lazuli
Finally I
Finally I hope for what I have
Finally I
Finally I am not profoundly sad

You are to my thoughts
As food to my life
For a piece of your love
You know I would die
If I could take you today
Into my arms again
Like I did yesterday
What's in a name, what's in a name
What's in a name, what's in a name
When I hear it said
Whoa I wish I was dead
Oh, what's in a name
Well, I gave you some love
But it wasn't enough
I won't say sorry for that
I take nothing back
No I'm not gonna play
Into your hands again
Like I did yesterday
What's in a name, what's in a name
What's in a name, what's in a name
When I hear it said
Whoa I wish I was dead
Oh, what's in a name
I'll watch out for your name
In casual conversation
If they play our song
Then I'll change the station
Guess it's all just the same
Who knows, maybe we'll meet again
Like we did yesterday
What's in a name, what's in a name
What's in a name, what's in a name
When I hear it said
Whoa I wish I was dead
Oh, what's in a name

You Smell Like Winter
04:30
|

She said, You smell like winter
Can I keep you forever
How can you measure
Your love for another
Love was the desert in my hands
The driest lands of driest lands
Stood stark naked and held us we
The blackness in your eyes was stoning me
And words were only dying baby's breath
This was written in the dark
Where reason holds the reins
Where the pills that made you numb
Made you lighter than perfume
And heavy as the hail
I was your purchaser of silence
But the gas lit up the fireman
I pleaded for love and painted smiles
But the green grass in your eyes was awful light
A kiss has killed our guiltiness
Now I am singing in the dark
Where reason holds the reins, the reins
Where the thoughts that make me numb
Make me sadder than I seem
Now I am singing in the dark
Where reason holds the reins, the reins
Where the thoughts that make me numb
Make me sadder than I seem
When I laugh at some dead face
When I laugh at the empty space

Who Am I

You remind me of
A TV show I used to love
That I still watch the reruns of
And I can't forget
The episode I long to regret
I have tried but I haven't yet
I used to go
To the shelter of my radio
But you're in every song
No longer do I sing along
Tell me, who am I
I ask myself a thousand times
And the answer is hard to find
I have these things
That remind me how
Your memory clings
All I can do is try
But hey, that's me
And who am I

Love In My Ear
04:29
|

I was the clock with no hands
That you never noticed before
I was the stage without a band
Now I'm waiting at your door
To sleep on your floor
Shoot me with your cursory looks
File me in with only read in books
Let me step into your state of fear
Let me whisper love in your ear
You keep on shoving poison down your throat
Some toxic waste of carbonated Coke
While you're sitting in your bubble
While they keep on crowning idols on TV
And it doesn't mean a thing to me
The clock is ticking and the show will soon begin
So stop your sleeping and try to live again
Honey, won't you wake up
And say the words I've waiting to hear
Love in my ear

Overcome

Overcome
Get a hold of yourself
Drive out the demons
But what are you without a foe

If my heart was made of gold,
You'd steal it, wouldn't you?
If my lungs were made of silver,
You'd probably take those, too.
When my memory's forgotten,
But you're richer than can be,
Would you know how much I love you,
And remember you loved me?
If my eyes they shone like rubies,
Would you take them from my head
And sell them on the market
To buy yourself a bed?
When my memory's forgotten,
But you're richer than can be,
Would you know how much I love you,
And remember you loved me?
When my soul turns to opals
Would you steal that from me, too,
And haul my body far away,
Left in an empty room?
When my memory's forgotten,
But you're richer than can be,
Would you know how much I love you,
And remember you loved me?
And when the time turns over,
And the sands come sweeping in,
And my bones are turned to diamonds,
Would you know where to begin?
When my memory's forgotten,
But you're richer than can be,
Would you know how much I love you,
And remember you loved me?
