Sympathy Mistake
02:10

You never did shy away
From sympathy mistakes
Blinded by your faith.
Red hair. Long legs.
Fine lines come to blows,
Soft hands break the bones.
Bend back to crack the code.
Shots fired. Reload.
You close your eyes, you cross your heart,
I watch your cigarette burn out the dark.
You close your eyes, you hit my mark,
I watch your cigarette burn out the dark.
Showing off both your fists,
Chipped teeth on my hips.
Drink it up, don’t waste the gift,
All pride, split lips.
Courage is all it takes,
Hands are never raised.
Giving up on your faith…
Red hair. Long legs.
You close your eyes, you cross your heart,
I watch your cigarette burn out the dark.
You close your eyes, you hit my mark,
I watch your cigarette burn out the dark.

Shallow Talk
04:08

Hold. Hold me up with your eyes
Or invisible wires.
For once in your life be kind.
Stars, they shift and align,
Burning cold til they die,
Fading dark in my mind.
Callow and cross, shallow and shocked by your talk
I follow and fall, hollow and haunted and lost.
Cut. Cut me numb with your stare.
Cut a line and inhale.
Tie it up in your hair.
Trust something better than fate.
Signal help til you're safe.
Hold it, hot, in your veins.
Callow and cross, shallow and shocked by your talk
I follow and fall, hollow and haunted and lost.
Press. Press it hard in my palm.
Leave your shoes on the lawn.
Steps soft til you're gone.
Callow and cross, shallow and shocked by your talk
I follow and fall, hollow and haunted and lost.

Get By If I'm Stoned
02:13

You made me throw
All of my rules out the window.
You made me go
Out to the bar with your friends.
I’ve been doing fine on my own,
Why can’t I get by all alone?
You made me throw
All of your shit out the window.
You made me go
Out to the bar with your friend.
I’ve been doing fine on my own
I think I’ll get by all alone.
I’ve been doing fine on my own.
I think I’ll get by if I’m stoned.

White Teeth

If you're ever gonna wake up
You better open both your eyes up"
Hungry heart out,
Shamelessly now.
Forget about me - you know how.
Who's lonely now?
Burn those bridges down.
Who's lonely now?
Chew my name up in your white teeth.
Alter all the codes that you keep.
Goddam reticence!
Lipstick confidence.
Don't regret a thing that's happened since.
Who's lonely now?
Burn those bridges down.
Who's lonely now?
There's a feeling that I can't shake;
One day I'll live to see you break.
Gotta get out.
Can't sleep now.
Help me to make it - You know how.
Who's lonely now?
Burn those bridges down.
Who's lonely now?

Hearts Are Terrified
02:53

Run fast, run wild.
Bend your face in a stranger's smile
Tell my heart 'keep on beating',
Keep your truth, so troubled, sleeping
Flash your teeth and growling like an animal
Can't look me in the eye
Kill the urge to end it in a massacre,
Our hearts are terrified.
Our hearts are terrified
Someone dropped a bomb
That didn't kill us for years to come.
Keep the peace. Keep your secrets.
Take the pill, take the glass and drink it.
Hold your breath as silent as a sepulcher
Barricades on icebox thighs.
Cut the strings and tell me that you're giving up
Our hearts are terrified.
Our hearts are terrified
Flash the teeth and growling like an animal
Can't look me in the eye
Kill the urge to end it in a massacre,
Our hearts are terrified.
Our hearts are terrified
