Call From The Hill
04:40
|

Hush
Don’t speak
Your accent’s hypnotizing me
And in the morning
On bombed out streets
The call from the hill will find me
Yes the call from the hill will find me
Find me
Time wasted
Searching for that nectar we tasted
Hurry hurry
It runs deep
It ripples through my nipples and creeks
Chasing fast
A fading scene
The call from the hill haunts me
Yes the call from the hill haunts me
It haunts me
Come home
Come home
I’ll build you a house of colored stone
Weathered and strong we’ll fight out demons
You’re not alone
So come home

ARMS&ARMS
When it rains it pours and all
We could say before the storm
Was to welcome you this city’s home
Although when it rains it pours
Walking on water that night
A sight to behold we believed
We would lose you to the scenery
You would leave us behind at sea
This is the home where stars are made
It’s the home where gods are born
There was this poem on a wall outside
It oddly drove you beside yourself
Come wake us up in the night
Crash your car and pick a fight
We will welcome you with open arms and arms and arms
///
We were yesterday’s future greats
We’ll be tomorrow’s future alrights
Solutions arise from the longest of nights
We’ll be tomorrow’s future alrights
The smell of freshly cut grass
Brings us back to Maryland
Our parents outside held the world in their arms and arms and arms
And I’m sorry I cut you off
When you were coming up with a plan
A plan for a glorious escape
Drive through my heart your spade
And I’m sorry my voice broke off
When I was guiding you out of here
Lost was our glorious escape
Drive through your heart my spade
Had my hand on the door
Heard a crack on the floor
Should’ve opened the door I know I know
Placed your hands on my eyes
Like you were covering lies
Dreams never die I heard I heard
Turn the night into day
You I sought while you swayed
Shadows will fade away you say you say
Had my hand on the door
Saw your head on the floor
Should’ve opened the door I know I know

Mourning Song
03:28
|

She wants a song from you / She wants it in the morning
They’re reading psalms for us / The country is in mourning
In many years from now / The echo of this omen
Her mountain eyes are clear / She guides you to the open
The wild hour has come / I’ll leave you in the morning
Kingdoms came crashing down / We had ignored the warning
Ten years won’t take them back / A lion become a woman
Her laughing eyes are clear / You dive into the moment
Everything’s real / Don’t get tired
Fall through your fear / Don’t get tired
Conservative tears / Don’t get tired
Cause everything’s real / Don’t get tired
Her wild eyes are clear / You fall in without warning
She wants a song from you / She wants it in the morning

City Of Our Dreams
06:06
|
|||
As you dug into the earth
Your hands were weapons cutting glass
Your voice ringing through the ash
Tomorrow’s promise what a promise
Turn the land into a storm
The soil into shards of glass
Your words soothing
It will get better
Pushing onwards pushing upwards
Building houses made of glass
Feeling our way around corners
How did we ever? Did we ever?
Take the keys man we will follow
Blind to signals deaf to cries
If you just tell us
It will get better
///
You were building something stronger
We’d call home and our shield
We’d call love we’d call freedom
Our escape was within reach
Yeah you tried we should’ve listened
Drove your car into the ocean
What a show what a parade
Could it get any better?
But we failed where it mattered
Look away we’re getting battered
Hanging backstage getting hammered
Could it go any further?
But the cities of our dreams
They are never what it seems
Will it ever get any easier?
PAST BELIEFS
HAUNT ME

HISTORIES HISTORIES GLOW
BUILD UPON
