Lyrics:

What was it that stayed my hand then?
With dagger held unsheathed
Blade pointing in its side
I’d been set upon by a predator
It was just looking for a meal
I saw ribs and fearful eyes

What is it that stays my hand now?
With so much misery
That I could mercifully put end to
For that animal I let slink off
Into the undergrowth, unscathed
Do I not fear death, but just pretend to?

For it was starving
It was hungry
But had eyes too close to let me
If you were easy to kill, I would have done it already

Plagued by phantom noises
That that skeletal beast
Was haunting all my steps

Questioning all my choices
With that dagger held unsheathed
I felt sick at my contempt

For you were lonely,
You were like me
Like some outside force had sent me
If I was easy to kill, you would have done it already

You are at my feet
We’re by the fire
You’re a gentle beast
And I’m alive
You are at my feet
We’re by the fire
You’re a gentle, purring beast
And I’m alive
You are at my feet
and we’re by the fire
You’re a healthy, gentle, purring beast
And I’m alive

You are at my feet
and we’re by the fire
You’re a healthy, gentle, purring beast
And I’m alive
You are at my feet
and we’re by the fire
You’re a healthy, gentle, purring beast
And I’m alive
You are at my feet
(you were starving)
and we’re by the fire
(you were hungry)
You’re a healthy, gentle, purring beast
(but had eyes too close to let me)
if you were easy to kill I would have done it already

Lyrics:

When I’m lying in my bed
I like to pretend
That my body is just bones on the beach

It’s the first time I feel rested
Since my mother’s womb I slept in
my last home between the stones and the sea

Some overzealous anthropology professor
With all his students in tow
Carry spades and books for studying, stumbling
Discover me
I implore them to leave me alone

Give me one millennium more there
Maybe I will belong more there
Than any place in which I was living
When I’m bones on the beach

With the end long past nigh
One eternal sigh
I’ve no breath that is left to release

And the loudness of mind has been gone since I died
Was I meant in this life to find peace?
Before I became bones on the beach

I hear footsteps,
And bones they cannot look left
But I register her stepping nearby

Her face is peaceful,
She’s looked upon life’s evil
And considered it next to infinite skies
She doesn’t ask for more time

Give me one millennium more there
Maybe I will belong more there
Than any place in which I was living
When I’m bones on the beach

When I’m bones on the beach

(Death won’t bring what you think it will)
(Death won’t bring what you think it will)
(Death won’t bring what you think it will)
(Death won’t bring what you hope it will)

What I long for’s nonexistent
In any belief system
All I, all I that want is some rest
There's no sentience in death
Just the darkness at the worst
Temporality and permanence
(Death won’t bring what you think it will)
I don’t know what’s on the other side
(Death won’t bring what you think it will)
But I don’t think it’s what I had in mind
(Death won’t bring what you think it will)
I hope I find some rest in this life
(Death won’t bring what you hope it will)

(Death won’t bring what you think it will)
(Death won’t bring what you think)

Lyrics:

I smelt smoke
On the wheezing of the wind when I awoke
A pyre of memory
Some fly-tipped treasury
Out there burning slow
Dark soaked fields
And the snuffling wet noses at my heels
Suddenly hackles raise
At the crackling of the blaze
Out there burning slow

And sometimes I catch him
With his axe in
The shadow
So secretive and private,
But I’m breathing in his life when
He’s out there burning slow

What a hoard
It should be wild,
It should be where wanderers walk
That hidden wood of green
The lake that he gatekeeps
Yet I know not what for
I would tread,
Build a fire and make the forest floor my bed
I would forage for my meal,
And in doing start to heal
But instead
All the time I covet
What he covers
By the hedgerow
So secretive and private,
But I’m breathing in his life when
He’s out there burning slow

And sometimes I catch him
With his axe in
The shadow
So secretive and private,
But I’m breathing in his life when
He’s out there burning slow

Lyrics:

This morning I emerged
Onto wet earth
It had been raining
And while it had been raining
You and I we had been lying
And while we had been lying
In the warmth we had been falling
Into slumber, with the thunder overhead
In the cave we laid down
to the rain sounds
On your window
Intermingled with the blood-rush
Of our love flush in our sinew
Sleep joined us in the lamplight
As a fire in a campsite
But we set no-one to watch
With our guard down

What a lovely hiding place
That you have made
To delay our parting
What a world outside
To keep each other safe from
That’s all that I want, darling.
That’s all that I want, darling.

You hold me in the burrow
Your brow furrowed in your dreaming
And at the time the flood comes
And our blood runs
Cold and bleeding
you’d lie, womblike
And in your arms
I’d cease my breathing
With broken ribs
And one last kiss,
I would die here warm

What a lovely hiding place
That you have made
To delay our parting
What a world outside
To keep each other safe from
That’s all that I want, darling.
That’s all that I want, darling.

Lyrics:

There was confusion
And there were flames
I had always felt the fire call my name
But this was different
I could taste the fear
And the sweet release
As the end of all drew near
I will never understand why

Why,
They shot me off a dying planet
In a tin-sized escape pod
There was room only for a bed and porthole
That I watched my home explode from
The com-link’s open
But there’s no one
Tuned in on the other side
Why did I deserve to live?
Did I just deserve to watch them die

Oh why did I?

In those first hours
No one heard me
Scream at the hateful, cold eternity
And I have been floating
Ever since then
With nobody but the darkness as my friend
And if they had asked me
I wouldn’t have agreed

That it was the right thing when they

Shot me off a dying planet
In a tin-sized escape pod
There was room only for a bed and porthole
That I watched my home explode from
The com-link’s open
But there’s no one
Tuned in on the other side
Why did I deserve to live?
Did I just deserve to watch them die

Oh why did I?

(They shot me off a dying planet
In a tin-sized escape pod…)

Lyrics:

The deft, agile fingers
In firelight flicker
Skin laced in wrinkles that made needles sing
There, love is concreted
With quietened breathing
Simple entwining of intimate string
It’s a beautiful thing
At stockinged knees sitting
I watching, her knitting
Intent on her fixing my little hands’ mess
She’s sure she can save it
Even with hands shaking
She had such a patience that I don’t possess
I was such a small pest

let us sit, so quietly,
in firelight I know you’d die for me
How gentle can our violence be
‘Tween finger and thumb
I’m sorry I’m repetitive
Don’t mind I keep forgetting it
So long as its my thread
Not the depths of her love

Two girls in their twenties
slowed down getting ready
As one said “please help me,
For its cold tonight.”

In our undergarments
She passed me the scarf and
Said “I never learned
how to cast off right”
For a moment I swore that
The light that I saw as
She handed the wool with a smile in the gloom
Was the firelight form
from the glow I was taught in
On grandmother’s hands in the cottage sitting room
Of course I’ll cast off for you
let us sit, so quietly,
in firelight I hope you’d die for me
How gentle can our violence be
‘Tween finger and thumb
I’m sorry I’m repetitive
Don’t mind you keep forgetting it
So long as its your thread
Not the depths of my love

Lyrics:

I will break upon you
Like a wave upon a rock
I never burn bridges
I just laden them with locks
I’m a smothering lover
Under my love’s weight it crumbles
Falls into the ravine
Alone you stand, an island
I’ll fill the space between

Dearest ocean,
do you get upset when
The cliffs don’t come out to meet ya?
Are you a people pleaser?
Darling moonbeam,
Do you ever want to scream
When the sun runs before you can see her?
Are you a people pleaser?

I’d walk for twenty miles
I’d draw from empty wells
There is a river flowing right outside
The cabin where I dwell
I’d have plenty if you let me

Dearest ocean,
do you get upset when
The cliffs don’t come out to meet ya?
Are you a people pleaser?
Darling moonbeam,
Do you ever want to scream
When the sun runs before you can see her?
Are you a people pleaser?

Lyrics:

Cremate me
Deliver me to safety
So that when it’s spent maybe
It will be my own

Scatter ashes
Leave no marker where you plant it
So the hordes will be disbanded as they search
On a treasure map for my headstone

Leave me to the beasts and bears
I’d rather that the feast was theirs
They can’t reserve neighbouring plots
Or request to be buried on top
Leave me for a day or two
To make sure that I turn blue
For the first time since I drew breath,
I’m undesirable again

I’ll tattoo it
Just so they think it’s ruined
and if they think it’s ruined
It’s easier to save
But please hurry
If you really love me
you’ll dispose of me
Unceremoniously in the waves

Leave me to the trees and air
I’d rather that the feast was theirs
They can’t reserve neighbouring plots
Or buy cuttings of my priceless locks
Leave me for two days or three
’Til my fingertips turn green
For the first time since I drew breath
I’m undesirable again

And they will come
In such dismay
That they never did discover where I lay
And I will burn
My flesh and form
Screaming the words
“it will never be yours”
I’ll take the flame over desecration
Promise you’ll make on these arrangements
Don’t you dare think it’s overkill
I wouldn’t wish the watching on anybody
So if for that reason only
Swear to me you will

Leave me to the beasts and bears
I’d rather that the feast was theirs
They can’t reserve neighbouring plots
Or request to be buried on top
Leave me for a day or two
To make sure that I turn blue
For the first time since I drew breath,
I’m undesirable again
