lyrics:
How deep is it
What did you say before
I said hopefully, according to my knowledge and experience, this is a good place
Um
Pick your, uh, rod and reel
Okay
So you have a suggestion, which one
What do you prefer, prefer open-face, closed
I think I do prefer closed, what about this gold one
Use the gold one then
Oh, the anchor says it’s pretty damn deep down there
Can I have my rag
Yeah where is it
It’s right next to you
Thanks
I have only half a worm
Um, could you grab the controls, underneath
Could you grab the controls, underneath
Um, could you grab the controls, underneath
Oh, the anchor says it’s pretty damn deep down there
We might have to
Oh

lyrics:
Hm
A lack of satisfaction here
Is that the way to interfere
And this is nothing that I’ve done before
This is nothing that I’ve done before
He said to me
What’s tearing at the afternoons
Programming everything you do
And this is nothing that I’ve done before
This is nothing that I’ve done before
A lose-losing I’m gonna win
My hand choosing the back door in
I’ll live without, so more within
I’m not Occam, I’m gamechanging
And this is nothing that I’ve done before
And this is nothing that I’ve done before
He said to me
This is nothing that I’ve done before
And this is nothing that I’ve done before
Can you take it
A brain made naked
A game to change it
A face that’s saying (saying your name)
It’s not what I’ve seen
A longvue this deep
Yeah, down this street
I’m changing your viscera
I’m saying you can still have me
Can you take it
A brain made naked
A game to change it
A face that’s saying (saying your name)
It’s not what I’ve seen
A longvue this deep
Yeah, down this street
I’m changing your viscera
I’m saying you can still have me
And this is nothing that I’ve done before
And this is nothing that I’ve done before
He said to me
This is nothing that I’ve done before
This is nothing that I’ve done before
He said to me
This is nothing that I’ve done before
And this is nothing that I’ve done before
He said to me
This is nothing that I’ve done before
And this is nothing that I’ve done before
He said to me
Can you take it
A brain made naked
A game to change it
A face that’s saying (saying your name)
It’s not what I’ve seen
A longvue this deep
Yeah, down this street
I’m changing your viscera
I’m saying you can still have me
And this is nothing that I’ve done before
And this is nothing that I’ve done before
He said to me
This is nothing that I’ve done before (I’m changing your viscera, I’m saying you can still have me)
This is nothing that I’ve done before
He said to me
This is nothing that I’ve done before
This is nothing that I’ve done before
He said to me
This is nothing that I’ve done before (I’m changing your viscera, I’m saying you can still have me)
This is nothing that I’ve done before
He said to me
This is nothing that I’ve done before
This is nothing that I’ve done before
He said to me (I’m changing your viscera, I’m saying you can still have me)
This is nothing that I’ve done before
This is nothing that I’ve done before
He said to me
This is nothing that I’ve done before (you can still have me)
This is nothing that I’ve done before
He said to me
This is nothing that I’ve done before

Hm
Not a, spread your line
Give me a couple of minutes
You tell me if you start to see
You start to see
You tell me if you start to see
Give me a couple of minutes
You tell me if you start to see
You start to see
You start to see

Omission

lyrics:
This glow
Up the core of my throat
The headback throw
Ceiling eyes open, close (open, close)
Open, close
Yes, you know
(Yes, you know)
Yes, you know
Omitted
So my one arm’s reach down below
Omitted
Has to write you in the scene, oh
Omitted
Must respect the greatest writers though
Omitted
So you wrote
You out of the scene
But two circles look up to me
(You out of the scene)
Too smart to not know the words they scream
A two-way street
I’m refusing
It’s the wrong color of sheets
A choice
Whispering hey boy
My souvenir toy
Ceiling eyes open, close (open, close)
Open, close
Yes, you know
Yes, you know
Yes, you know
Omitted
So my one arm’s reach down below
Omitted
Has to write you in the scene, oh
Omitted
Must respect the greatest writers though
Omitted
So you wrote
You out of the scene
But two circles look up to me
(You out of the scene)
Too smart to not know the words they scream
A two-way street
I’m refusing
It’s the wrong color of sheets
You out of the scene

lyrics:
The way it falls
There’s gotta be
Show me, there’s gotta be
I feel it all
Show me, there’s gotta be
I heard the first
The first time the crickets sang this year (there’s gotta be)
I heard the words
Heard me say
I can’t believe I’m here
Another year
(There’s gotta be)
Letting go versus holding on (letting go)
Show me, there’s gotta be another option (there’s gotta be)
Letting go versus holding on (letting go)
Show me, there’s gotta be another option (there’s gotta be)
Cuz love’s not a masochist (show me, there’s gotta be)
No, love’s not a masochist (show me, there’s gotta be)
Love’s not a masochist
No, love’s got a way around this
(There’s gotta be)
The way it falls
The porch lights fall across the yards tonight
I feel it all
Feel you pull me in under those lights
(Gotta be)
Letting go versus holding on (letting go)
Show me, there’s gotta be another option (show me, there’s gotta be)
Letting go versus holding on (letting go)
Show me, there’s gotta be another option
Cuz love’s not a masochist (show me, there’s gotta be)
No, love’s not a masochist (show me, there’s gotta be)
No, love’s not a masochist (show me)
No, love’s got a way around this
Love’s not (show me, there’s gotta be)
No, love’s not (show me)
No, love’s not a masochist
No, love’s not a masochist
Love’s not a masochist (I feel it all)
No, love’s got a way around this
(There’s gotta be)

Tattoo

lyrics:
I’ve got a tattoo on my heart,
Clawed open, pointed to the spot
Why did I agree to this
It was my idea, all of it
But now I can’t get you off, get you off me
Steel wool and dousing you in bleach
But all that I do keeps hurting me
Dear future me, please comfort me
Dear future me, please hold my hand during surgery, oh
Please future me, please comfort me
Dear future me, please hold my hand during surgery
I’ve got a tattoo on my heart
So I returned back here to the start
And I added more ink, you see
Turned you into a masterpiece
Cuz if I can’t get you off, get you off me
In my arms, albatross, you will hold me
And we will fly, side by side, to unmapped sea
Dear future me, please comfort me
Dear future me

Met a Man
03:19

lyrics:
I see you, you, my installation
Me and you, you, always waiting
We grew larger than life
So I don’t get the words right
Meta, man
I met a man
How she did it
Not a secret
Try to see it above you
Every minute
Our exhibit
Gallery, blue
When the navy came to take me
You were in another room of our museum
You had your reason
She will see things in the paintings
As she’s pulled from the room
Then drop a jaw
As the gallery hall, then an aerial view
Show the how of you
In the library shelves that touch hell
In the ways that a mind is not well
Can the how of it be the only truth
In the how of you
The how of you
In the how of you
Meta, man
How she did it
Meta, man
Waits the secret
Waits to be seen
Waiting like you for me
How she did it
How we
I see you, you, my installation
Me and you, you, always waiting
We’re growing larger than life
So I won’t get the words right
Meta, man
Oh, I met a man

lyrics:
We’re over some kind of really deep hole
I know we’ve been shifting
The anchor’s not on the bottom either
Yeah see the anchor’s going straight down
Oh, the anchor says it’s pretty damn deep down there
