Plans 03:18
Days killed by TV shows And downstairs lifeless plants November cold Commitments complicate In likeness in disgust And I will carry you A thousand times a day And I will see this through In all the plans we make Outside they’re crashing cars Animals, humans in, of ancient stars Constantly contemplate The smallness sickness of And I will carry you A thousand times a day And I will see this through In all the plans we make Faith in a setting sun Reflecting, driving in, no passenger Enemies helplessly A well-paced lifelong fall And I will carry you A thousand times a day And I will see this through In all the plans we make

Shake 04:10
When I seem as an upright ape Fist to chest in an ancient rage Where you stand on your well-kept lawn Focus on the trap sprung Am I bleeding and broken held? Have I freedom enough to tell? or did I miss all those rusting teeth? Free to roll down your street? And shake this broken branch Gape garages with things obese Through the gaps in such perfect teeth Sleeping, slips in a wonder drug All at once to wake up And shake this broken branch
3.
The deepest vein of deceit Not doing what you were made for At every sit at your seat Through every night's entertainment As if to wander at dusk With every thought in a tangle Grip tight the feel of enough Move your mind like you're able Get wise to spells of bended view In concentration And map the mist that circles you To all the others of us With subtle dreams of misfortune Reflecting faith or mistrust Discontinue contortions And when in doubt be not confused Nor foul or frail Be plain for all that's caused by you Get wise to spells of bended view In concentration And map the mist that circles you
4.
Hangs High 05:20
Alarm bells ring out again in the same damn room Electrically amplified, through routine move Approaching the interstate, the backups do Repeat near familiar streets, what comes of you For all I reach hangs high Green lights tick tock time Not afraid to belong Plotline without flaw Bricks that must be laid, now scattered heaps Once dropped out of the sky, walls complete
5.
Remain 03:52
A chorus good-byes From the door where you came Rain drumming drains like A phrase how can you remain? Shreds now of disease That fail yet to take So crowding your heart In time how can you remain? So collapsing the time And forgetful with names Lost inside your house Alone how can you remain?
6.
Unseen See 03:46
Extended family, so sags the roof So long the rain gains in heavy pools And if the animals are in my bed And if the wall falls onto my head All trip the searchlights I don't see My junked-up body Wavin' in the beam All trip the searchlights Slow walks the enemy into our home From here I'm watching, but they don't know Should I wait till the walls collapse, and nothin's left? Till it's all outside, rained on and dead? All trip the searchlights I don't feel Just a dreamer Sleepin' at the wheel Escapee With the light off All the unseen see
7.
Endlessly 03:27
And of the murmurs, in cancers, in waves We filled the beaches, the prairies, the caves So find beginnings and all that had to be To make the matters with all these families Endlessly And of the money, fill fortunes and tanks Or wait for whether subsistence/escape We count the missteps, send blankets on a plane In dreamy sickness, ingested we remain Endlessly
8.
Dead Adrift 05:40
Tire tracks and railroads lines across a bridge Mayflies in the sunrise lifting up to live Cities in the distance so hard to understand Loop around the country on laser-lighted sand Span the rising sea, dim lights on lonely boats Span the rising sea, or broken ghosts we float Span the rising sea, eyes numb on sleepless screens Span the rising sea Passing by the moments reading how to tell a lie Mounting irritations too vague to wonder why Gasoline and scripture and everything they'll need Abounding in a bunker can't last beyond a week Span the rising sea, the dead adrift serene Span the rising sea, with tangled roots rubbed clean Span the rising sea, we can't believe such things
