Too Late 03:48
Put the past on the fire Wed the better with a restart Keep the picture on the wall still And put your hands on the fallout Are you holding on the needle or setting fire to your haystack Greet the mire with a free fall Reaching for the silhouette Oh if you ever let go would you let me know Is it too late to be who we are be who we were back then Put the past on the fire Wed the better with a restart I’m calling out for settlement Reaching for the silhouette Is it too late to be who we are be who we were back then Cause I let time alone break up our home Free the good we know Is it too late to be who we are be who we were back then

Don't Break 04:04
Foolish love slid through my blood lifted my skin and covered all the good that was so Break it all, i don’t really want to give it effort anymore I’ve been pulling on my soul while my mind wages war on all I knew, breathing anew I don’t want to take it all from you Don’t break it all, make it out through your body Don’t break it all This is the calling Don’t take the fall, you are more than you know Don’t break it all Don’t let it go All my lies slid through my eyes Holed up my sense and buried all the good inside cause they won’t go, steady in the belly of the bed I know I’m breaking up my bones but I can’t find their hold up

Front seat telephone conversations then we sat quiet, thought racing, the point I’m making is we are not set things Forever is a childish dream Front seat, static hum on the station All my mistakes filled up the space but Emma says I’m getting real good at the small things: Looking up at life but I know that she’s lying cause no blood’s red with the wrong love A simple suture in the pseudonym of long drawn time The lie is we were alive once in a world so gone I can barely breathe I can’t watch you leave here Face the sky afar Love is the lonely star hanging over us Do what we must I can barely breathe I can’t watch you leave again “Don’t be scared”, Emma says with a quick grin she’s the calling and I’m choking on my word’s cause I’ve never been alone like this in the arms of a restless love I don’t want to go but I really don’t know if I can make it to the morning

Times like these, they wear on me Tear my skin from my bones Times like these they pull on my sinew soul Times like these, they show when love darkens, am I gone Between my teeth, no tongue I find I speak between space in my mind In the late hour I try to soak the words we spoke in the eyes of the sky Our pretty died inside the sun and it made them cry

Come Home 03:41
Fire in the bed of your blood Fool-less where the heat come from Who left’s going to love me Who left’s going to love me now I slip from the war we shook Pull up on the tiring good Who left’s going to love me Who left’s going to love me now Let go all you know Come home Come home to me Time but you couldn’t let go blood lost from the wound you sew Who left’s going to love me Who left’s going to love me now She said “Fuck your amor, I want in your head.”

Only One 04:13
We found love buried in the ice melted it to cloud and we pulled it from the sky Stitched our souls Cut through bone We made it over, we made a home You said we could walk across the sea That I was all you knew and all that you could see but you spoke slowly through a fickle tongue And I stopped thinking I’m your only one We let go Hulled our bones Rewrote love, reddened our blood Bedded a home where the marrow was We don’t know why darkness becomes our fill So I pulled the rows, lifted the lows but I’m below us still We found hope, a flicker in the dark pressed against the stones and the weight of our restart Stitched its skin, let it all in Layered it for days like the sand above our sin You said we could walk across the sea That I was all you knew and all that you could see but you spoke slowly through a crippled tongue And I stopped thinking I’m your only one
