stationary weathervane
preaching of the blackest cloud
look at all this rain
and you're dreaming of the desert now
shadows (circles, strangers) all around my head
no, I can't stay (sleep, die) here
no way
heavy drought and patient seeds
waiting for the melting down
take a peek at what you've treed
before it plummets to the ground
living in the constant stream
carried through a rusted sieve
hymnals of the scattered team
there where the simple live

meet mister five
he's got space to hide
your future's inside
something new to try
seal on the door
shows what it's good for
and I'm not afraid of being poor no more
it's the hum become the roar
he's pointin at me
just pointin at what he sees
a firmly planted tree
with a host of healthy looking leaves
and the northwest corner of his zoo
it's just as lonely as you
bare as all the truth
wasting the sunlight of its youth
yes, you're the one
that they'll put there in the sun
and you'll drink your fill
wait until

Three Cheers for Us
03:21

there o Jesus, where'd you run to?
passed through the lips of the ones who hold you
I look right in for to shake your hand
but my faith it is as a grain of sand
it's boiling, hooray for love
hooray for morning
three cheers for us
out of the oppression or the slavery
where the walking is easy and the weather is free
they've come to take me for a ride
and I'm getting awful tired of sleeping on the same side
what's that nail that sticks us two?
how're those hands a holding you?
made a rope from just a strand
all around me where the Savior stands

Just as Blind
03:31

the way your legs are crossing, well it's so unkind
but I'll go to heaven in my mind, heaven in my mind
a thing they never see that's left so far behind
sayin' just as blind, just as blind
turn around to thank it and it gets its kiss
leaves you kissin' in the mist, kissin' in the mist
ask you where you learnt it, said it's all in the wrist
get to take it for a twist, take it for a twist
and I heard the voice of harpers, harping with their harps
harping in the dark, harping in the dark
how's it feel down here swimming with the sharks?
happy as a lark, happy as a lark

somehow the air is thicker than it was
thicker than it was
and it's pouring slowly down
somehow the world is on display for me
or that is how it seems
and it's careful how it's wound
careful how it's wound
tied with funny cords
frayed and singing sound
somehow the wind smells fresher all the time
fresher all the time
when does it empty out?
somehow the world is on display for me
simply how it seems
established in blind doubt
when does it empty out?

Run Into the Heaven
04:00

run, girl, get out now
blood's on your armor
cheat death and you pound at his door
or maybe you were desperate
I can't touch your mind
everything at once and then you're on the other side
you run into the heaven
and trample down the earth
argue with the owner
disputing of its worth
lick, lick the blood off the knife
spit fire, burn down the wound
ask your advice from the moon
tell stories through your trials
what's their right to truth?
who's to say what's what when you have eaten all the proof?
they'll hurt you
as you hurt
they'll rob your bag and tear your shirt
and if I had a corner
I'd tell them nothing's free
and no matter what I hear tonight, she was always good to me

you're gonna need the thicker tar
if your plan is to go very far
however will you steer that thing
busted rudder, feeble string
fund my trip, sink my ship
and feel the trembling water rising around
return it to the lender
put a scare into the sender
I will eat their stupid prizes
made of flour and sugar
if I can make you smile for just a short while
and see your burden weaken and moan out loud
butter up the soft spot
whisper prayers into the coffee pot
it whistles strange today, I swear
preservations in the air
let her dance, let him sing
just leave em be, just leave em be, just leave em be
