Slow Death

Feel the wind burn through my skin
The pain, the air is killing me
For years my limbs stretched to the sky
A nest for birds to sit and sing
But now my branches suffer
And my leaves don't bear the glow
They did so long ago
One day I was full of life
My sap was rich and I was strong
From seed to tree I grew so tall
Through wind and rain I could not fall
But now my branches suffer
And my leaves don't offer
Poetry to men of song
Trees like me weren't meant to live
If all this earth can give
Pollution and slow death
Oh lord I lay me down
No life's left to be found
There's nothing left for me
Trees like me weren't meant to live
(Oh lord I lay me down)
If all this earth can give
(My branches to the ground)
Is pollution and slow death
(There's nothing left for me)

The stranger sang a theme
From someone else’s dream
The leaves began to fall
And no one spoke at all
But I can’t seem to recall
When you came along
Coeur brilliant ingénue
Rotating into view
Can I leave the kingdom
Or am I caught in a death animation?
Quand on est ensemble
How can we be so sure?
La lune n’est pas mon leurre
In a kingdom of one

Pictures black and white, no color
There's a postcard sent from heaven
Pictures black and white, no color
There's a postcard sent from heaven
Just so I know I'm not alone
I'll make it work
Don't want it to end in tears
Just so I know I'm not alone
I'll make it work
Don't want it to end in tears

When We Are Together

Quand on est ensemble, le soleil vient
Du bonheur dès le matin
Dénouer nos mains
Et très vite nous invite sous le ciel clair
À sauter dans la mer
Quand on est ensemble
Quand on est ensemble
Quand on est ensemble
Quand on est ensemble

How Can We Be So Sure?
05:51
|
|
||

Spent some time atop the mountain
I crossed the bodies on the trail
Decorated and delusional men
Clinging to a fairytale
To presume there’s something better
To separate the crest from the wave
To believe we’re not just fooling ourselves…
It doesn’t matter anyway
It doesn’t matter anyway
It doesn’t matter anyway
Quand on est ensemble
I will make the world apologize
Quand on est ensemble
I will kill the spiritualized
Quand on est ensemble
All love will become demythologized
How can we be so sure?
Mon vœu à la lune
Quand on est ensemble
I will suck the lighting from the sun
Quand on est ensemble
I will win a war that can’t be won
Quand on est ensemble
Bright hearts are sent to Chimney 21
How can we be so sure?
Mon vœu à la lune

If a man could be two places at one time
I'd be with you
If a man could be two places at one time
I'd be with you
If a man could be two places at one time
I'd be with you
If a man could be two places at one time
I'd be with you
One by one the stars will all go out
Then you and I would simply fly away

The Other Side

And just because there's nothing on the other side
It doesn't mean we should not check the other side
That we should not check the other side
That we should not check the other side
But we should not check the other side

The Final Turn

|
|

Don’t you worry about me
I promise I won’t go far
I hope that you’re happy
I’m working for my last breath
Bright hearts eclipse the sun
In retrograde phenomenon
Don’t you wait for me
I wish I could see your face
I wish I could call you
I wish I could simulate
Another hit and run
As you approach the final turn
Don’t you wait for me
Bright hearts eclipse the sun
In retrograde phenomenon
Don’t you wait for me

Death Animation
08:02
|
|

I can feel the
Winds blowing from Babylon
They whisper through the terrace balustrades
Hanging crescent
Peaking through the battlements
Please let it be my final night ensnared
In a death animation
Can I
Just start over again?
Would I leave the kingdom
Or am I caught in a death animation?
Will we
Burn it all to the ground?
Can I really end it
Or am I caught in a death animation?
See, to see
Beyond the citadel walls
Can I leave the castle
Or am I caught in a death animation?
I can
Feel your touch from afar
Help me leave the castle
And rescue me from a death animation
In a death animation

Can't Let It Go
03:30
|
|
||
|
I’m singing to nobody
It’s already done
An absent apology
That never will come
A kick in the teeth that I
Forever will hold
You’ll reap what you sow
Along your high road
But I can’t let go
I just can’t let go
We’re victims of circumstance
And you most of all
I gave you an olive branch
And you built me a wall
In the dark of uncertainty
Bright hearts never glow
The adagio slows
The wounds never close
And I can’t let go
I just can’t let go

Corrupted Memory
05:19
|
|
||

And even if you can’t stop the static
And even if it’s not automatic
And if you wanna feel like there’s something
Where there’s not supposed to be
And just because you’re not empathetic
And just because you’re sociopathic
And if you wanna feel like there’s nothing,
You can find the words to say
And if you want it all -
Forest for the trees
If you come at the king
It’s Chimney 23
You don’t mean a thing
Corrupted memory
And everything is just so bombastic
And everyone is just so sarcastic
And if you wanna feel like there’s someone
Who can find the words to say
And even if you can’t stop the static
And even if it’s not automatic
And if you wanna feel like there’s something
Where there’s not supposed to be
And if you want it all
Forest for the trees
If you come at the king
It’s Chimney 23
There’s something on the wing
A cruel reality
And just because it’s just so abstracted
And just because I’m overreactive
You don’t have to feel like there’s something
That you’re not supposed to say
And even if you can’t stop the static
And even if it’s not automatic
And if you wanna feel like there’s something
Where there’s not supposed to be
One last handshake

I don’t know why I’m so afraid
To say the things I mean
When it’s over
You won’t be here at all
I…I just…
If I asked you this right now
Would the magic remain at all?
And would you still call?
Would you still call?
Why do you look so afraid
When I’m right here?
When it’s over
You won’t be here at all
I…I just…
If I asked you this right now
Would the magic remain at all?
My bright heart aftershock
Can I love at all?

And keeping to himself he plays the game
Without her love it always ends the same
And keeping to himself he plays the game
Without her love it always ends the same
And by himself it's easy to pretend
He'll never love again

Promise To The Moon

Quand on est ensemble
I saw the lavender in bloom
Quand on est ensemble
I made a promise to the moon
Quand on est ensemble
But there’s a bright heart rotating into view
The stranger sang a theme
From someone else’s dream
The leaves began to fall
And no one spoke at all
But I can’t seem to recall
When you came along
Ingenue
Quand on est ensemble
I saw the lavender in bloom
Quand on est ensemble
I made a promise to the moon
Quand on est ensemble
But there’s a bright heart rotating into view
Quand on est ensemble
I grew the orchids just for you
Quand on est ensemble
We slept until mid-afternoon (Ingenue)
Quand on est ensemble
But there’s a bright heart rotating into view
I just don’t know what to do
Quand on est ensemble
I heard the siren sing a tune
Quand on est ensemble
I jumped into the new lagoon (Ingenue)
Quand on est ensemble
When there’s a bright heart rotating into view
I just don’t know what to do

I took the frame off of the nail today
Removed the pages from your dossier
My bright heart
Has found a new beginning

And just because there's nothing on the other side
It doesn't mean we should not check the other side
That we should not check the other side
And just because there's nothing on the other side
It doesn't mean we should not check the other side
That we should not check the other side
That we should not check the other side
That we should not check the other side
