Edging 02:23
We are--fur and teeth and complication Hear us--skin and bone our medication One word--see a brow that sweats and furrows Take me to a room where the lines run straight Take me to a room where the lines run straight How are we to know when the work is done? How are we to know when the work is done? Golden--like our fathers always taught us Tragic--mirror pure, all flash and surface One thought--see a brow that sweats and furrows Take me to a room where the lines run straight Take me to a room where the lines run straight How are we to know when the work is done? How are we to know when the work is done? Will I have a place in your bright new world? Will I have a place in your bright new world? How are we to know when the work is done? How are we to know when the work is done? The axe is coming The axe is coming The axe is coming The axe is coming

Palomino 02:07
Neither here nor under there A bolt, a breeze, a cunning stare The Devil laughed and gave you hooves The Devil laughed and gave you hooves Palomino (gagged and bound) Palomino A color, a beast, a ruin still standing A color, a beast, a ruin still standing A color, a beast, a ruin still standing A color, a beast, a ruin still standing Destroy the words that make the thing Tear the wings, and blunt the sting The Devil laughed and gave you hooves The Devil laughed and gave you hooves Palomino (gagged and bound) The Devil laughed and gave you hooves The Devil laughed and gave you hooves The Devil laughed and gave you hooves The Devil laughed and gave you hooves

Milkdromeda 04:53
I saw a face in bending light Whispered its name into the night I saw a billion stars collide These transverse vectors as their guide I held the darkness in my hand My lifetime for a grain of sand Bright words they flew into the sun All of their plots and plans undone They raise us up, they raise us up, they raise us up --they guide us down Will you turn away? Will you turn away? (Turn, turn, turn, turn) We wake the cold, kinetic beat--we wake the sound Will you turn away? Will you turn away? (Turn, turn, turn, turn) They raise us up, they raise us up, they raise us up --they guide us down

Manta Rays 02:49
The ocean came today Sneaking past my room Like the one that got away The moon is fallen down Broken into bits, the remnants of a ghosted town The dog's in the yard with the manta rays Yellow light, red light, gone for days The dog's in the yard with the manta rays Yellow light, red light, gone for days Rifle's rusted shut Threw it on the reef that was once my father's truck Diamond sun, blue wave Bleached bones fill this underwater cave The dog's in the yard with the manta rays Yellow light, red light, gone for days The dog's in the yard with the manta rays Yellow light, red light, gone for days Yellow light, red light Yellow light, red light Yellow light, red light Yellow light, red light Gone

Dye my beard a fearsome, glowing blue (Like the jackals do--Like the jackals do) Raise your bows and loose, our aim is true Hyaaa! Now wake us Hyaaa! Then shake us Hyaaa! Now wake us Bend bend bend bend bend Pointed greetings sent Raise a glass to those who spend the night (Like the jackals might--Like the jackals might) Greasing wheels and fletching for the fight Hyaaa! Now wake us Hyaaa! Then shake us Hyaaa! Now wake us Bend bend bend bend bend Pointed greetings sent Hyaaa! Now wake us Hyaaa! Then shake us Hyaaa! Now wake us
