I got a lucky cigarette for the day i die I hope I do not have to wait in line to catch a glimpse of you Well I made it to the bottom can I crawl up to the top I wanna catch the train that never stops I will pick you up I will pick you up I got a lucky cigarette if I need to cry I hope I do not have to say goodbye to catch a glimpse of you I got a message for my devil I want him dead He is taking space inside my head I'm making space for you I'm making space for you Yes you Yes you Oh, I'm making space for you

Closure 03:15

Make amends with all my memories Give it up, your dark emotion Its easier at night its harder waking up I'm having visions for the first time And I'm trying I find it hard Predictable, impatient heart Take a little time if you need to It never felt the same, oh It never felt the same, oh I feel fearful people sighing I see a thousand eyes open like flowers I'm waiting for you but you're moving backwards Soaring drunkenly I'm reaching heaven Straighten up Your blind devotion And I'm trying, I see the door I see the door, I see the door Take a little time if you need to Because it never felt the same.

Troubled Lover 04:43
lyrics

Can you help me understand how you drown in holy water? Can you take me by the hand but leave my mind to wander? I don't care now, I'm not your troubled lover I don't care now, I'm not your troubled lover And I need it badly, on my own its on the fire Disappoint you gladly, on my own its on the fire See it burning, burning When he sings to me his energy brings a tear into my eye He is right in front of me but never at my side How could you know who I am You must have me for another Can you help me understand how you drown in holy water?

Spiritual Riddles 04:00
lyrics

I feel so good that I feel bad Healthy body, good mom, good dad Sympathy discovers Everybody suffers City slicker Why so bitter Your cold eyes they Make me shiver Run and tell my daughter I have not forgot her Its over, my slumber I'm waking to a dream Discover another possibility Before you go In the desert where horses whisper Glancing backwards Excuse me mister You are not my father Take me to the water Its over, my slumber I'm waking to a dream Discover another possibility Before you go

These Last Words 04:07
lyrics
buy track
If my train comes today These last words let me say Let my love know that I went up smiling As they lay me in the ground I'm up in heaven looking down I can hear them singing songs They fear not dying But they know not where I am They will try to understand Naked as we came to be Back to our silent reverie If my train comes today These last words let me say Let my ma know that I went down fighting As they lay me in the ground I search for words I've still not found I am going to a place It is inside me But they know not where I am They will try to understand Naked as we came to be Back to our silent reverie.
