1. DIRTY PAWS

Jumping up and down the floor,  
My head is an animal.  
And once there was an animal,  
It had a son that mowed the lawn.  
The son was an ok guy,  
They had a pet dragonfly.  
The dragonfly it ran away  
But it came back with a story to say.
 
Her dirty paws and furry coat,  
She ran down the forest slope.  
The forest of talking trees,  
They used to sing about the birds and the bees.  
The bees had declared a war,  
The sky wasn't big enough for them all.  
The birds, they got help from below,  
From dirty paws and the creatures of snow.
 
And for a while things were cold,  
They were scared down in their holes.  
The forest that once was green  
Was colored black by those killing machines. 
But she and her furry friends  
Took down the queen bee and her men.  
And that's how the story goes,  
The story of the beast with those four dirty paws.

2. KING AND LIONHEART

Taking over this town, they should worry
But these problems aside
I think I taught you, well
That we won't run, and we won't run, and we won't run

And in the winter night sky ships are sailing
Looking down
On these bright blue city lights
And they won't wait, and they won't wait, and they won't wait
We're here to stay, we're here to stay

We're here to stay

Howling ghosts they reappear
In mountains that are stacked with fear
But you're a king and I'm a lionheart
A lionheart

His crown lid up the way as we moved slowly
Pass the wondering eyes of the ones
That were left behind
Though far away, though far away, though far away
We're still the same, we're still the same
We're still the same

Howling ghost they reappear
In mountains that are stacked with fear
But you're a king and I'm a lionheart
And in the sea that's painted black
Creatures lurk below the deck
But you're a king and I'm a lionheart

And as the world comes to an end
I'll be here to hold your hand
Because you're my king and I'm your lionheart
A lionheart, a lionheart
A lionheart, a lionheart
A lionheart, a lionheart
A lionheart, a lionheart

Howling ghost they reappear
In mountains that are stacked with fear
But you're a king and I'm a lionheart
And in the sea that's painted black
Creatures lurk below the deck
But you're a king and I'm a lionheart
A lionheart, a lionheart
A lionheart, a lionheart
A lionheart, a lionheart
A lionheart, a lionheart
       

3. MOUNTAIN SOUND 

I heard them calling in the distance
So I packed my things and ran
Far away from all the trouble
I had caused with my two hands
Alone we traveled on with nothing but a shadow
We fled far away

Hold your horses now
(We sleep until the sun goes down)
Through the woods we ran
(Deep into the mountain sound)
Hold your horses now
(We sleep until the sun goes down)
Through the woods we ran

Some hid scars and some hid scratches
It made me wonder about their pact/past/pack

And as I looked around, I began to notice
That we were nothing like the rest

Hold your horses now
(We sleep until the sun goes down)
Through the woods we ran
(Deep into the mountain sound)
Hold your horses now
(We sleep until the sun goes down)
Through the woods we ran

We sleep until the sun goes down
We sleep until the sun goes down
We sleep until the sun goes down

Hold your horses now
(We sleep until the sun goes down)
Through the woods we ran

(Deep into the mountain sound)
Hold your horses now
(We sleep until the sun goes down)
Through the woods we ran

Hold your horses now
(We sleep until the sun goes down)
Through the woods we ran
(Deep into the mountain sound)
Hold your horses now
(We sleep until the sun goes down)
Through the woods we ran

We sleep until the sun goes down
We sleep until the sun goes...  

4. SLOW AND STEADY 

The lights go out, I am all alone
All the trees outside are buried in the snow
I spend my night dancing with my own shadow
And it holds me, and it never lets me go

I move slow and steady,
But I feel like a waterfall
Yeah, I move slow and steady
Past the ones that I used to know

My dear, old friend, take me for a spin
Two wolves in the dark, running in the wind
[- From: http://www.elyrics.net -]
I'm letting go, but I've never felt better
Passing by all the monsters in my head

And I move slow and steady,
But I feel like a waterfall
Yeah, I move slow and steady
Past the ones that I used to know
And I'm never ready
'Cause I know, I know, I know
That time won't let me
Show what I want to show

5. FROM FINNER

We came here on his back
And we caught your eye
The salty ocean wind
Made the seagulls cry
The rocking of his house

Had me holding on
But I knew that I was safe
From there on out

And the waves that hit his face
Marked the past
And the the farrows on his skin
Oh, how time goes fast

And we are far from home, but we're so happy
Far from home, all alone, but we're so happy

After every sunny day
Came a stormy night
That's when Finner would say
Keep your heads held high

And we are far from home, but we're so happy
Far from home, all alone, but we're so happy

And we are far from home, but we're so happy
Far from home, all alone, but we're so happy

6. LITTLE TALKS

I don't like walking around this old then empty house
So hold my hand, I'll walk through my dear
The stairs creak as I sleep, it's keeping me awake
It's the house telling you to close your eyes

Some days I can't even trust myself
It's killing me to see you this way

Because though the truth may vary this
Ship will carry our bodies safe to shore

There's an old voice in my head that's holding me back
Well tell her that I miss our little talks
Soon it will be all over,
And buried with our past

We used to play outside when we were young
And full of life and full of love

Some days I don't know if I am wrong or right
Your mind is playing tricks on you my dear

Because though the truth may vary this
Ship will carry our bodies safe to shore

Don't listen to a word I say
The screams all sound the same
Though the truth may vary this
Ship will carry our bodies safe to shore

You're gone, gone, gone away
I wish you'd disappear
All that's left is a ghost of you
Now we're torn, torn, torn apart
There's nothing we can do
Just let me go, I mean against you

Now wait, wait, wait for me
Please hang around
I see you when I fall asleep
Don't listen to a word I say
The screams all sound the same

Though the truth may vary this
Ship will carry our bodies safe to shore
Don't listen to a word I say
The screams all sound the same

Though the truth may vary this
Ship will carry our bodies safe to shore
Though the truth may vary this
Ship will carry our bodies safe to shore
Though the truth may vary this
Ship will carry our bodies safe to shore

7. SIX WEEKS

Slow, slow me down,
Her blood, on my bones.
Let go, lay to rest.
We fall, we fall, we fall,
We fall to the ground.
Sleep, sleep all night,
While the young, they wait alone.
So get up, shake the rust.
We crawl, we crawl, we crawl,
We crawl on the ground.
Alone, i fight these animals.
Alone, until i get home.

A wolf, wolf and i,
We share the same cold meal.
I float on, float on down.
We ride, we ride, we ride
We ride it all out.
We ride, we ride, we ride
We ride it all out.
We ride, we ride, we ride
We ride it all out.
We ride, we ride, we ride
We ride it all out.
Alone, i fight these animals.
Alone, until i get home.
[x4]
Coming back, i'm coming back.
Coming back, i'm coming back.
She follows me into the woods,
Takes me home.
She follows me into the woods,
Takes me home.
Coming back, i'm coming back.
Coming back, i'm coming back.
She follows me into the woods,
Takes me home.
[x3]

8. LOVE LOVE LOVE

Well maybe I'm a crook for stealing your heart away   
Yeah maybe I'm a crook for not caring for it 
Yeah maybe I'm a bad, bad, bad, bad person 
Well baby, I know
 


And these fingertips, will never run through your skin   
Those bright blue eyes can only meet mine across a room  

Filled with people that are less important than you
Because you love, love, love when you know I can't love  
You love, love, love when you know I can't love  
You love, love, love when you know I can't love, you…
 
So I think it's best we both forget before we dwell on it  
The way you held me so tight all through the night It was near morning
Because you love, love, love when you know I can't love  
You love, love, love when you know I can't love  
You love, love, love when you know I can't love, you...

 

 

9. YOUR BONES

In the spring we made a boat,
Out of feathers, out of bones.
We set fire to our homes,
Walking barefoot in the snow.
Distant rhythm of the drum
As we drifted towards the storm.
Baby lion lost his teeth,
Now they're swimming in the sea.

Troubled spirits on my chest
Where they laid to rest.
The birds all, left my tall friend,
As your body hit the sand.
Million stars up in the sky
Formed a tigers eye
That looked down on my face,
Out of time and out of place.
So hold on,
Hold on to what we are,
Hold on to your heart.
Awaken by the sound
Of a screaming owl,
Chasing leaves in the wind,
Going where we've never been.
Said goodbye to you my friend
As the fire spread.
All that's left are your bones
That will soon sink like stones.

10. SLOOM

The sea said goodbye to the shore so the sun wouldn't notice
The sea it wrapped its arms around you

The calm on my cheek feels like the fall grass
and I run through the tall trees with your hands chasing me

So make all your last demands for I will forsake you
and I'll meet your eyes for the very first time, for the very last

And beat us to take this bludge to forgive us for our pasts
be a better man, to be a better man, to be a better man

So love me mother, and love me father, and love my sister as well
So love me mother, and love me father, and love my brother as well

They cast the silhouette as big as a monster in this concrete jungle,
The streetlights hang in their house

The books that I keep by my bags are full of the stories
That I drew up on a little dream of mine, a little nightmare of yours

So love me mother, and love me father, and love my sister as well
So love me mother, and love me father, and love my brother as well
So love me mother, and love me father, and love my sister as well
So love me mother, and love me father, and love my brother as well

I met a man today and he smiled back at me
there are thoughts like these that keep me on my feet, that keep me on my feet.

11. LAKEHOUSE

Oh I miss the comfort of this house.
Where we are where we are.
Where we are where we are
The floor under our feet whispers out
Come on in come on in, where it all begins.

Can you chase the fire away
Can you chase the fire away

We climbed up to the top in worn out shoes
But she ran down she ran down.
She ran down to the house.
A fox that gains our trust, but then breaks it as he walks
Away form us, away from us.

Can you chase the fire away
Can you chase the fire away

In the fall, we sleep all day
In the fall, we sleep all day
We sleep all day
We sleep all day
We sleep all day

Can you chase the fire away
Can you chase the fire away

In the fall, we sleep all day
In the fall, we sleep all day

12. YELLOW LIGHT

I'm looking for a place to start,  
But everything feels so different now.  
Just grab a hold of my hand,  
I will lead you through this wonderland.  

358 × 358 - tumblr.com

Water up to my knees,  
But sharks are swimming in the sea.  
Just follow my yellow light  
And ignore all those big warning signs. 
   
Somewhere deep in the dark  
A howling beast hears us talk. 
I dare you to close your eyes  
And see all the colors in disguise. 
Running into the night,  
The earth is shaking and I see a light.  
The light is blinding my eyes  
As the soft walls eat us alive
