O come back comfort me the trees fall down eyes filled with smoke soil burnt black we're lost in Him how will we ever find home the sky lights up with fire to wash away all our sins the trees the smoke and fire water, black mud oh teach me teach me to outlast the past

Milky 04:03
Wax me, wane me I want you to chain me to your muscle to your bone you feel so real when we're alone Milk runs down your legs you've brought me somewhere far away inside of you inside of me there is no us there's only we reach up, reach in take my heart, pull it from my body You push in all the way you've got me where you want me now I give to you, you take from me to fill your holes, to set you free I'm full up to the brim you pull the plug and all within me drains out onto the ground my emptiness the only sound

Biggest One 03:10
you are my biggest one all the paper cranes flowing out my heart could fill up the sky you are the biggest one you are my coyote you fill my head with shiny things you are the biggest one your fleet of crocodiles chew through the insides of my sugary brains you are the biggest one to ever hold me tight your bear claws tear away all my doubt and fright your biggest soul is a blanket that I wrap around my shoulders cold in the dead of night your biggest mind is a computer that solves for the Xs of our tiny love you are the biggest one to ever hold my heart and cup it gently for it to never die you are the biggest one to ever find that string of gold and hold on tight till the end of time

Fall Around 04:25
Show me outside of you and I'll show you inside of me Show me the world moving and I'll show you the stillness of us You mold me a pair of wings but they melt under the sun under the heat of the sun You paint my skin with colors but it's only black and blue and grey and I'm waiting for a shade of red fall around
5.
Beat01 04:46
Song of mine you grow out of nothing special you grow like my plants reaching for the sun and drinking water Words of mine you carry such dangerous feelings when I desire your sharp-toungued knives to poke small holes in the one who hurt me but I'm not scared I'm not scared

January 05:19
That's how the wind moves and this is how the rains fall and this is total beauty when sun and leaves blind your sight This is how the ground melts that is what happens when the sky burns and those are our bones ground to dust this is what is called pain this is what is called pain and this is how you kill me slowly
7.
I'm writing on the walls I'm drawing a mountain and moon I'm painting a picture to hang in my window Once this war is won we'll live together We'll find a shelter and we'll live together When your cup is full we'll drink together Once this child is born he'll live forever I've loved it all with tears in my eyes Whether it be people or plant we've now lost our chance
