Bitter Root 04:54
It's the blood and breath of that bow and stern It's the bitter root of that plank and wood It's the cradle rock, it's the sailor's knot It's the bright and blue of the wave and wash Where I find my home It's the sweat and salt on that beam and boom It's the creak and heave of that sail and shock It's the leather rough of the sailor's heart It's the shape and sound of the swell and crash Where I find... It rolls, it rolls It rocks and rolls It's the skin and pulp of that man and mast It's the sight and pulse of that wide and vast It's the beat and break of that sailor stomp It's the sun and gold through the gulp foam Where I find my home It rolls, it rolls, It rocks and rolls It's the grit and taste of that wound and salt It's the cool and rush of that steam and blood It's the prey and thirst of the long and lost It's the shape and sound of the swell and crash It's the cradle rock, it's the sailor's knot It's the bright and blue of the wave and wash It's the cradle rock, it's the sailor's knot It's the bright and blue of the wave and wash Where I find...

Muse me up and muse me down Have you found yet what I bring? Have you heard yet what I sing? A little blue note, a silver line Buzzing by your wild, wandering eyes Fool me once and fool me twice As luck may have a set of nice A set of nine, an almost dime A little blue note, a silver line Lighting up your swirling twisted mind Wish me out or wish me way Have you paid yet what you owe? Have you been yet where I go? Have you known yet what I know? A little blue note, a silver line The start of everything you might never find

Somehow 04:27
Somehow, somehow you bring life to this day Somehow, somehow there's sunflowers and grace And you, you make me real, you make me light And you make me sure, and you make me free And you make me go... Somehow, somehow you bring light to this cave Somehow, somehow there's warmth, laughter and faith And you, you make me real, you make me light And you make me sure, and you make me free And you make me go... Somehow, somehow you bring flight to this fall Somehow, somehow there are songs and soul And you, you make me real, you make me light And you make me sure, and you make me free And you make me go...

Venom 06:32
Feel it pierce your skin That deep, dark buzzing sting That cruel and harmful thing An utter shock to my heart That made it pulse and swell That deep, dark, that deep, dark buzzing sting Feel the pain set in That toxic, throbbing bite That blurred and steamy sight A bitter taste on my tongue That made me sweat and tear That deep, dark, that deep, dark buzzing sting The venom rushed with every breath The venom rushed with every breath, the venom rushed Through my heart, through my soul And so, our love went cold Feel the knot deep within That sore and swollen mark That sharp and searing scar A skillful blow to my mind, That made it hurt and stay That deep, dark, that deep, dark buzzing sting The venom rushed with every breath The venom rushed with every breath, the venom rushed Through my heart, through my soul And so, our love went cold The venom rushed with every breath The venom rushed with every breath, the venom rushed Through my heart, through my soul And so, our love went cold

Lemon Breeze 06:04
There was this pretty thing, a pretty thing among us Sweet skin and lemon breeze draws cooler by the hour Jump back, jump back, jump back into consciousness There was this swirl and steam, the wonder of a daydream Cold tongue and lick your lips, an icy squeeze and hot kiss Jump back, jump back, jump back into consciousness Pretty mouth, salt and lime Dream eyes, fault and fine Bright, hot, high and dry Deep breath and sunny tears, the silver sand blows over Cool sweat and haunted scent, the bare brown of summer Jump back, jump back, jump back into consciousness Pretty mouth, salt and lime Dream eyes, fault and fine Bright, hot, high and dry Citrus in the wind as I begin collecting Memories inside the breezes blowing by I'm intercepting Bits and pieces of a time when you and I were so connected That together we complete a certain circuit that's electric The sun increases melanin and bleaches photographs Pictures of our tanned hands with the fingers overlapped So relaxed in you company, it's comforting Live with me in the moment, there's no place for wondering Under the blanket of a tall oak shadow Sweet warm lips that thoughts can't follow Every sensation that I feel run through me, is a hot match for a cool breeze Bring me right back to that bleached photograph And don't ever let me leave such a sweet memory When the sun leads the way and a smile never finishes Get lost with me in a lemon breeze There was this pretty thing, a pretty thing among us Sweet skin and lemon breeze draws cooler by the hour And jump, jump, jump...

Stella Jones 03:54
There she goes, Stella Jones Watch her slink and move, heat and hypnotic groove Heat and hypnotic groove There she is, Stella Rizz Feel the buzz and crush of her static rush Of her static rush The cutting bite of her Stella talk The subtle drum of her desperate heart The crushing weight of her killa' walk And flashing white of her clasp and claws There she goes, Stella Jones Among the bad and bruised, and the seldom refused And the seldom refused Up she floats a flutter to the flame All pretty, glowing things burn out eventually Up she floats a flutter to the flame All pretty, glowing things burn out eventually The cutting bite of her Stella talk The subtle drum of her desperate heart The crushing weight of her killa' walk And flashing white of her clasp and claws Up she floats a flutter to the flame All pretty, glowing things burn out eventually Up she floats a flutter to the flame All pretty, glowing things burn out eventually There she goes, a flutter to the flame All pretty, glowing things burn out eventually There she goes, a flutter to the flame All pretty, glowing things burn out eventually
