and the ravens
the came along to play
with your beauty and my inner decay
so hold me forever in our house by the river
where the dogs run free
where the dogs run free
and the daisies
and the one with hazelnut hair
in the end both left me bare
so hold me forever in our house by the river
where i can be free
where i can be free
hold on to me
let us offer this load to the sea
and the love and the swing and the time
they're around and once they were mine
so love me forever in our house by the river
where i can be free
where i can be free
hold on to me
let us offer this load to the sea
take my bullets
and take my gun
i'm not here to defend myself
i am open read all my lines
then put me up on your highest shelf
it still feels right
heavy on my shoulders
heavy on my back but
it still feels right
it still feels right
allay your hunger
and appease your thirst
don't even ask for more
another sailor on another ship
but the sea's as it was before
and it still feels right
heavy on my shoulders
heavy on my back but
it still feels right
it still feels right
row your boat
..
i wanna let it all out
i wanna let it all out
through my lungs and through my mouth
i wanna let it all out
you've pulled me in your waters
you've pulled me tight you wanted me to swim
i've never sunk so quickly
i've never lost my skin
in such cold and stormy places
these races i can't win
look what we've become my friend
look at our dirty hands
and look outside the window
the window of the house that we once built
out of our silt
maybe it's not our time
or maybe the times have changed
did we kill each other blindly
or did we just arrange
it's almost done
somethings almost gone
but i'm still here
you've pulled me in your waters
you've pulled me tight you wanted me not to leave
all your mercy's daughters
and all your mercy's brothers became thieves
you never wrote a letter
cause you knew it wouldn't matter
to me or to my mind or to the things you've done
the things that you have killed
that i have killed
maybe it's not our time
or maybe the times have changed
did we kill each other blindly
or did we just arrange
it's almost done
somethings almost gone
but i'm still here
i've put my shoes in the wrong place
i've built my house in the wrong space
between the mines we've strategically placed
and i've let your dogs in my garden
spilled all the wax and it won't harden
until i've found what i'm longing for
i went in and you went out
the air's getting thin and we're getting proud
don't move so fast
wait here for me
walking is easier if you're able to see
i can't swim through your waters
and i can't build a bridge
and i won't make you some daughters
no i won't make you rich
so i've wrapped myself in white linen
wait for the march to begin and
let us move on till we've found what we're longin' for
i went in and you went out
the air's getting thin and we're getting proud
don't move so fuckin' fast
wait here for me
walking is easier if you're able to see
i can't swim through your waters
and i can't build a bridge
and i won't make you some daughters
no i won't make you rich
i could try to hold you forever
but let us set some other goals
and no, i can't change the weather
i'm so tired of fillin' your holes
..
time is moving forward in my head and in my bones
but in our bed everything's the same
the stains from years ago my burning arrow and your bow
and all the shit that brought us to this low
a hundred times i've let you down a hundred times i died
became the greatest basters of them all
the garbage-wall between us i'll break it down and then i'm gone
i offer you love, a throne, the ocean and a home
so touch me with your golden skin again
and i'll do everything i can to keep your eyelids warm
let's settle down beneath the sea, hawaii, or where you wanna be
in order to be free
and everything i know is that i'll keep you till i'm gone
i'll keep the fires lit and fix the roof
if everything is leaky then i'll be bulletproof
i offer you love, a throne, the ocean and a home
i offer you love, a throne, the ocean and my home
you are living
you are living when i'm not
and i am crawling
i am reaching out for you but everything has changed
everything has changed within a year
within a day within a year
i love you
and i can change and i can grow
i can grow
so i walk outside and it was early in the morning
and i step outside right into the darkest night
this is the end this is the end
the beginning and the end
time will collapse
and i will collapse
..
(come on and get it)
this is the end i feel it
i love you
i love you
i love you
i wanna steal, i wanna burn and fight
i wanna fuck to feed my appetite
i wanna let go to never get it back
this is losing
hail to the lack
i wanna knock until my knuckles bleed
i need relief for my selfish breed
i need a home where my mind can settle down
let me fall
down to the ground
my head, my bones, my lips, my stones
my dreams, my flood, my piss, my blood
wanna create, i wanna find some peace
it must be storm even it's a breeze
it may sound windy but what is life about
take away
all my doubt
my head, my bones, my lungs, my stones
my piss, my flood, my god, my blood
they say, they gain, they stain, the stain,
they pray, wake up, wake up, wake up
come on, come on, get on, yeah,
be me, stay in, i want it
there are leaks in my boat
and the coast is out of sight
i'm alone with my load
with the water and the light
what the hell
makes me free
i'm broken and old
don't know if i'm awake
off course for so long
floodin' all my lakes
what the hell
makes me free
if not the sea
if not the water
if not the light
or is there another
way out of here
a last thought on my mind
and the hour's gettin' late
a seaway to find
i know i'm on the fade
wish me well
on my way
cause i am the sea
i am the water
i am the light
and there is no other
way of gambling'
no way to see
no way of ramblin'
no way for me
cause i am the mess
here i am my lover
iʼve built us a home
and i burn it when we suffer
and cover it in foam
it's an open handed giving
where we try to get lost
i'm the failure you're the landing
you're the water i'm the coast
and we're okay
me and my computerized heart
and we're okay
me and my computerized heart
i'm an sober alcoholic
with big plans and grey ideas
it don't matter if you're solid
with your metaphors and fears
static feels your voltage
and static feel your lips
with your failure and my landing
you're the water for my ships
and we're okay
me and my computerized heart
and we're okay
me and my computerized heart
i'm not here for complication
i'm just here to clear our minds
there are many dots between us
so let's try to draw the lines
i can feel some revelation
and i can see it in your eyes
this is pure illumination
so illuminate our lies
and we're okay
me and my computerized heart
and we're okay
me and my computerized heart
we're okay
me and my computerized heart
and we're okay
