These Nights
03:43
|
|||
|
Under the faint suburban light
you spent all these nights alone
In the backyards, in the fields
You miss all the noise we're in
Nobody knows
Where you've been and where you'll go
But you know how these nights will end
But you know how these nights will end
Nobody sees
Nobody knows your ways
In the twilight, in the woods
You love all the shades we're in
Under the faint suburban light
You're a stranger to yourself
But you know how these nights will end
But you know how these nights will end
But you know how these nights will end

Kitchen Lights
03:18
|
|||
|
Where the city ends and where you think it does
If the music from the store plays everywhere
You came out here, to find out here, where it's not
That's the place and that's the time where you get thrilled
If the grid plowed through the woods, plowed through the fields
So you think that there is nothing more to say
You add shade to shade and noise to noise
If the winds hiss through your streets and through your stores
If all the bulbs just scratch the dark
If this place and if these times are not at hand
If an aisle can break you down can make you sad
You've been lonely watching lonely kitchen lights

The Ecchoing Green
03:42
|
|||
|
The rain pours into all your sleep and in all of your fear, in the haze
Those roads you are longing for, go on and on, in the gray
The lawn echoes through all your sleep and all of your fear, in the morning, in the gray
Thereafter your room wakes up to somebody else, in the gray
The lawn echoes through all your sleep and all of your day, in the haze, in the gray
Your love echoes through all your sleep and all of your fear, in the haze
The basements you are longing for, go on and on, in the gray
And when you remember, you remember all of your life in the morning, in the gray

Fields
03:03
|
|||
|
As soon as we leave the lights
As soon as we cross the fields
We know we’re not really lost
But will we master it all?
Will we master it all?
We walk from nowhere to lust
Through the vast extent of control
We know we’re not really home here
But will we master it all?
Will we master it all?
While the horizons return
Only wind in dry grass
Sure, no one felt this before
But will we master it all?
Will we master it all?

Glow
04:30
|
|||
|
We might have reached the center or the edge of all we hide
We take pride
In being out here on our own
Alone, we’re out here on our own
Sure, we like wandering, wandering around
And as we do
Our memory is burning bright
What’s hiding? What is burning bright?
The fires are all we see
The fires are all we see tonight
Sure, we need telling, telling you about
To make it count
To give you a glimpse of the glow
What’s hiding? What is burning bright?
The fires are all we see
The fires are all we see tonight
We might have reached the center or the edge of all we hide
We are scared
Being out here on our own
Alone, we’re out here on our own
The fires are all we see
The fires are all we see tonight

Lost Ya
03:32
|
|||
|
Love you
I know that I‘ve lost you
And I know that I‘ve lost you
I know that I‘m lost too

And If The Winds
05:26
|
|||
|
The TV light on the wall
We enter your oblivion
While the dark is closing in
The vastness of the bedroom sheet
Where we don't know what to feel
While lust and fear are closing in
And if the lights
and if the non-lights
It will not hold
And if the dusk
or not.
It will not hold
The TV light in the yard
Where we don't know what to say
Suburban archaeology
And if the streets
And if the non-streets
And if the winds
And if you're lost
or not
It will not hold
And if the fields
or not
And if the woods
If our past
or not
It will not hold

Dusk Longitude
03:25
|
|||
|
We are - we're going nowhere
We are - out in the open
Is this? - more than we’ve asked for
This is not - where we expect silence

Bones
02:43
|
|||
|
We left the rain to the dark
and the winds to the woods
We are shocked to the skin
We might as well live
We lost our house to the leaves
And the sobs to our sleep
We are shocked to the bones
We might as well live
You don't know shit
You don't know shit
All the windows may break
All the rooms may turn dark
Where no distinctions are made
We might as well snap

In The Dawn
03:28
|
|||
|
Dewy dwellings
And the superficial night
In the dawn
In the dawn
They're still working
You are somebody else
In the dawn
In the dawn
Pick your beverage
From the chiaroscuro fridge
In the dawn
In the dawn
You're not lonely
This is quite a different fear
In the dawn
In the dawn
This is fragile
This is your eternity
In the dawn
In the dawn
Fill your lungs now
With the artificial lights
That lurk around this place
If they bend now
If they break in the dawn
No blame will be heard
You may witness
All the sadness in the dawn

The East
01:21
|
|||
|
We`re walking to the fields in the east
We`re seeing all the lights thru the wind
The nights, the nights we lie awake
The days, the days are much too bright
The nights, the nights we lie awake
The days, the days we're in the west
