Open your mouth wide
The universe will sigh And while the ocean blooms It’s what keeps me alive So why does it still hurt? Don’t blow your mind with why I’m moving out of orbit Turning in somersaults A giant turtle’s eyes Timid fish go by |
You got some nerve coming here
You got some nerve coming here You stole it all! Give it back! You stole it all! Give it back! Good morning, Mr Magpie How are we today? Now you’ve stolen all the magic And took my melody You know you should But you don’t You know you should But you don’t Good morning, Mr Magpie How are we today? Now you’ve stolen all the magic And took my melody |
Turned so nasty now
The dark’s there The pillar of my soul The last one out of the box The one who broke the spell Little by little by hook or by crook I’m such a tease And you’re such a flirt Once you’ve been hurt You’ve been around enough Little by little by hook or by crook Never living earnest, never get judged I don’t know where it is I should look You could want it all, the flag and pole I’m curling with my love The last one out of the box The one that broke the seal Obligation Complication Routines and schedules A job that’s killing you Killing you Little by little by hook or by crook Never living earnest, never get judged I don’t know where it is I should look Little by little by hook or by crook I’m such a tease And you’re such a flirt |
You are not mine
And I am not yours And that’s okay Please don’t judge me |
I will shape myself into your pocket
Invisible Do what you want Do what you want I will shrink and I will disappear I will slip into a groove And cut me off, and cut me off There’s an empty space inside my heart Where the weeds take root So now I set you free I set you free There’s an empty space inside my heart Where the weeds take root So now I set you free I set you free Slowly we unfurl As lotus flowers Cause all I want is the moon upon a stick Just to see what if Just to see what is I can’t kick the habit “Just to feed your fast-ballooning head.” Listen to your heart! We will shrink and then be quiet as mice And while the cat is away Do what we want Do what we want There’s an empty space inside my heart Where the weeds take root So now I set you free I’ll set you free Cause all I want is the moon upon a stick just to see what if Just to see what is The bird that’s flown into my room Slowly we unfurl As lotus flowers Cause all I want is the moon upon a stick I dance around the pit The darkness is beneath I can’t kick the habit “Just to feed your fast-ballooning head.” Listen to your heart! |
Sleight of hand
Jump off the end Into a clear lake No one around Just dragonflies Fantasised No one gets hurt You’ve done nothing wrong Slide your hand Jump off the end The water’s clear And innocent The water’s clear And innocent |
Don’t haunt me
Don’t hurt me Don’t haunt me Don’t hurt me Gather up the lust and soul In your arms In your arms Gather up the pitiful In your arms In your arms What seems impossible In your arms In your arms I think I have had my fill In your arms In your arms I think I should give up the ghost In your arms In your arms |
It’s like i’ve fallen out of bed
from a long and vivid dream The sweetest flowers and fruits were hanging from the trees Falling off a giant bird that’s been carrying me It’s like i’ve fallen out of bed from a long and vivid dream Just exactly as I remember Every word, every gesture I’ve my heart in my mouth Like I’m falling out of bed From a long and weary dream Finally I’m free of all the weight I’ve been carrying And as that woman blows her cover In the eye of the Beholder I’m a fish now, out of water Falling off a giant bird that’s been carrying me I fell open, I lay under At the tea parlour I lost your number And once it’s over Hid back under And if you think this is over Then you’re wrong If you think this is over Then you’re wrong If you think this is over Then you’re wrong (Wake me up, when you wake me up) If you think this is over Then you’re wrong (Wake me up, when you wake me up) Like I’m falling out of bed From a long and weary dream Finally I’m free of all the weight I’ve been carrying Wake me up Wake me up Wake me up Wake me up Wake me up Wake me up Wake me up |
