Ghost Knocks

Fences

A tired sound that races around
With a blinding wish too loud to miss
A tired sound that races around
On the ground that holds you,
You love to misuse

Climb our fences, leave us alone
Say we’ll need you to lead us along
Climb our fences, leave us alone

The roof is off, our teeth are sharp
We lost the same things we love to abuse
A tired sound that races around
A sound that holds you and whispers good news

Climb our fences, leave us alone
Say we’ll need you to lead us along
Climb our fences, leave us alone
Climb our fences, leave us alone
Say we’ll need you to lead us along
Climb our fences, leave us alone

 

Dressed Up

Only a fool could dress up and drop off in time
Humming a tune like someone afraid in the night
Temperature falling, nothings appalling
Only a fool could dress up and drop off in time

Bleed forever, don’t turn around
Meet each other where no one knows us at all

Only you would leave me a clue where you’d hide
Home is a storm, a waiting room stained with a fight
Prison break daunting, leaving this morning
Crooked and new, I messed up and fell off the side

Bleed forever, don’t turn around
Meet each other where no one knows us at all
Bleed forever, don’t turn around
Meet each other where no one knows us at all

 

Runway

Unearth this runway and release me
I’ll learn this one day, dreaming
Unearth this runway and release me
I’ll learn this one day, dreaming

I caught you missing what I’ve been missing
Our dark room shattered, ablaze with chatter
Our clothes are wilting, some pages missing
I hung and wondered,
Three days ‘till someone woke the monster
Even awake it leads to nothing

Unearth this runway and release me
I’ll learn this one day, dreaming
Unearth this runway and release me
I’ll learn this one day, dreaming

Please

I packed for summer
But instead, I stumbled headfirst into winter
Fists full of splinters
I’m poor from wishing
Too old to listen
Who wrote this chapter?
Whose pounding laughter woke the monster?
Even away amounts to nothing

Never wanted out so bad as today
Never wandered out so far just to stay
Better let all us out of here

Unearth this runway and release me
I’ll learn this one day, dreaming
Unearth this runway and release me
I’ll learn this one day, dreaming

 

Full of Chemicals

I’ll follow in the snow
I’ll never let you know
I’m on the trail of love
But I’ll never get a look inside

The moon and the crow
Their partnership is so
Like you and I we know
We’ll never let this fall aside

We’re full of light
We’re full of chemicals
We’re full of light
We’re full of chemicals

The truth is in our blood
Our bodies warming up
One touch and then you’ll see
We’re on the cusp of everything

I found you in the snow
I’ll never let you go
I’m on the trail of one
I’ll never get a good look inside

We’re full of light
We’re full of chemicals
We’re full of light
We’re full of chemicals
We’re full of light
We’re full of chemicals
We’re full of light
We’re full of chemicals

  

Leper

Do hold onto what you know is really true
All legends fail to ring your bells in tune
Do hold up at every cost but don’t blow the fuse

Better not take us
When we’re on, we’re on,
We’re on, we’re on, we’re on
Better not break us
When we’re gone, we’re gone
We’re gone, we’re gone, we’re gone

Cruise out far to where it’s calm
A lonely trail to lose the past and
Its armored palaces
Let’s go softly, stars are humming
Hearts are well

Better not take us
When we’re on, we’re on,
We’re on, we’re on, we’re on
Better not break us
When we’re gone, we’re gone
We’re gone, we’re gone, we’re gone
Better not wait on us
When we’re gone, we’re gone
We’re gone, we’re gone, we’re gone
Better not wait on us
When we’re gone, we’re gone
We’re gone, we’re gone, we’re gone

 

Cold in the Apartments

Cold in the apartments
There’s no other way
Take you apart
Hide inside other days
Don’t make a fuss ‘cuz
There’s no other way
We do it in the dark
To hide all our faces

Oh well, we’ll fake, and you will fall
Whole wide world will look you over

Cold in the apartments, but it always pays
The body knows and it always says
Cold in the morning, just like all the rest
I robbed you in the dark and I left a mess

More than attached, it’s a busy way
Woke up with a vision that keeps me the same
I won’t fuss ‘cuz there’s no other way
I do it in the dark to hide all my real faces

Oh well, we’ll fake, and you will fall
Whole wide world will look you over
Oh well, we’ll fake, and you will fall
Whole wide world will look you over

Wake up, pack it up
One face at a time is all that you get alone
‘Till you give it all away
Wake up, pack it up
One face at a time is all that you get alone
‘Till you give it all away

Wake up
