Petrichor

Your lips are clay
And your knuckles crack
I wonder what type of rain will
Bring the moisture back
I want fertile soil
To plant our foundations on
We will if we plant with ardour
Our heart's a dry land so I'll work harder
I want more
Sweet, darling Petrichor
Your breath is dust
And your words lack
My eyes are wanting to
Will bring the moisture back
I want more
Sweet, darling Petrichor

Gingerbread
01:36
|

|
I walk the forest floor
Cut my feet on many thorns
And can't show anyone I'm bleeding
You feed me gingerbread
Give me a place to rest my head
But I'm the only one believing
Tiptoe round
The birds aren't singing for us now
Can't remember the last time I slept
Even though the dark is gone there's still breadcrumbs left
We built our candy walls
Decorate to the hide the flaws
Am I the only one in grieving?
You've stolen all my gold
But I believed the story sold
Now you're the only one still breathing
Tiptoe round
The birds aren't singing for us now
Can't remember the last time I slept
Even though the dark is gone there's still breadcrumbs left
I walk the forest floor
Cut my feet on many thorns
And can't show anyone I'm bleeding

Milk
03:21
|

|
Body arching over me
Blindfolded and I can't see
Your trembling lips
You're trembling, you're trembling...
Tell me I'm your everything
That I'm your night and day
You then calm my blushing skin
With a kiss between the shoulder blades
I'm not the girl you need to be
I've seen it in your eyes
I've seen it many times
So love me any way you want to
Cheek to bedroom silk
Cradled in your loving arms
With skin like Milk
Take me any way you need to
Love me till we're still
Laying in exhausted arms
With skin like Milk
Your fingers dancing over me
Loving you with every beat
Of your racing heart
It's racing, it's racing
I'll tell you I can be anything
I'll be your life and love
You're just addicted to the sin
I'm not sure that will be enough
I'm not the girl you need to be
I've seen it in your eyes
I've seen it many times
So love me any way you want to
Cheek to bedroom silk
Cradled in your loving arms
With skin like Milk
Take me any way you need to
Love me till we're still
Laying in exhausted arms
With skin like Milk

Nightcap
04:36

Raise a glass up the moon
I'm taking off my gentlemans smile
Sweet dreams will be here soon
Never will I ever be lonely
When trash TV and a bottle console me
Whisky giving me my focussed mind
The comfort I get is the southern kind
And in my self-induced darkest haze
I'm thinking back to the days you gave me
Tipping bottles to the moon
And taking off the clothes that confine me
Now it's me in darkened rooms
Never have I ever been lonely
With stainless steels and pills to console me
They all say that it will heal with time
When anyone asks I just say I'm fine
Then why in my induced darkest days
Am I thinking back to the days you gave me?
When did you say that you were leaving?
Why did you leave this all behind?
But I don't blame that you left and ran
It takes bravery to be the better man
But I'd have liked to walk down the street holding hands
But I know you loved me all you can
Raise a glass up the moon
I'm taking off my gentlemans smile
Sweet dreams will be here soon

Secret
02:45
|
|||
|
Make sure you mean it when you make love
Say he's everything you want him to be
That his lips are soft as velvet and his skin as soft as silk
That everything about him's better than me
Tell him he's no secret
Tell him he's no secret
Let him see you smile when you say he's yours
Be kind and tell him all you see
Don't lie when you say that it's him you want
Don't hide him away under lock and key
Tell him he's no secret
Tell him he's no secret
Tell him he's no secret
Tell him he's no secret

River
03:29
|

|
I'm stepping in with stones in my pocket
Dressed in Sunday best
I left you a letter explaining my decision
I'm going back to the silken caress
Of the river
Of the river
Palms to the sky and the last bouquet you left me
Caught in a whispering tide
If you could you would've been the one to save me
But I shan't recover this time
River
River
And my every thought is a ripple on the water
And my beating heart is behind every wave
And your own reflection's a reminder that you ought to
Live
This last somber moment I pray to be forgiven
And you are the God on my mind
I give myself to water in complete submission
My soul is forever entwined
With the river
With the river
Live

Comfort
02:41
|

|
Safe from cold and safe from harm
I found comfort in his arms
Bring me magic, bring me joy
Beauty, love, whilst playing coy
Show me the fashions of the spring
Show me I'm your everything
Cleansing my own tainted soul
Safe from harm and safe from cold
Fly, fly
Take me to paradise
Birds kissing the air
Are on my mind
And I'm
Safe from cold
And safe from harm
I found comfort in his arms
And I'm
Safe from cold
And safe from harm
I found comfort in his arms

Honeycomb
04:18
|

|
I want to kiss a gentle spirit under a honeycomb sky
Flatter me, regale me with stories of old-
All the things I can hold. Grow roses in my heart
And be sure that love is at the root and in every seed sown
Because I don't want to be alone
Peach sun in a burning mind
I'll feast on the banquet that I see in your two eyes;
Say you'll be mine
One day we'll fly away to the sky
We'll take whatever we can find
We'll ride in the skies alone
We'll fly in the skies of Honeycomb
Perfumed breeze giving a delicate embrace
And as you hold me, and take me -
To that other place. Bring laughter to the skyline
And bring passion to every whispered word
Because I just need my heart to be heard
Love blooms on a shadowed moor
I'll be better than any of the ones before
Forever yours
One day we'll fly away to the sky
We'll take whatever we can find
We'll ride in the skies alone
We'll fly in the skies of Honeycomb

Ritual
03:31

Made me believe in miracles
When I'm not that way inclined
Got me performing rituals
That I just follow blindly
Every whisper, every touch against my skin
Won't mean anything
Won't mean anything
When I
Cast you out
Cast you down
It's a trial by fire but I'm washing over every single word
You said
You placed a rusted halo round your head
And tried to make me pray
Tried to forget every drop of posion
To get me to stay
Every time, every lie that you tried to feed me
Won't mean anything
Won't mean anything
When I
Cast you out
Cast you down
It's a trial by fire but I'm washing over every single word
You said
Preached your lies like you were divine
But I'm taking back the life that you made me sacrifice
As nothing you say is the gospel truth
I'll build you up just to crucify you
Cast you out
Cast you down
It's a trial by fire but I'm washing over every single word
You said
Cast you out
Cast you down
It's a trial by fire but I'm washing over every single word
You said
