1.
The Composer (Demo) (free) 03:25
a pounding of thunderous hearts to remind you there's life in the dark though she can't be seen, with you she will be until the dawn brings forth a new start the composer dreams precariously and still will find reasons to sing though she can't be heard, you know every word, pulsing within like waves of the sea all faults will fall through cracks in time as the slanted stars above align though we live with regret, there is thunder in our chests and a raging storm is composed of mine
2.
Pretty Things (Demo) (free) 03:23
we collect pretty things like the sea collects catastrophes pearls and diamonds suffocate our hearts until we forget that we've ever been scarred glass and silver embellish these halls to cover up the writing on the walls we collect tall trophies like the earth collects old memories chandeliers that hang above our heads are shadowing the ghosts under our beds silk and lace behind the closet door will distract from the skeletons we've stored we collect pretty things and like the sea, we collect catastrophes yes we've all made our homes amongst such delicacies, but in the end we will all die alone
3.
Empty City (Demo) (free) 04:34
so you've found me in this dark with my lack of valor and grace you mustn't be alarmed, but don't you hold my heart with disdain you've found me here below all the morals I have grown to, but you have always known I was meant for none other than doom and my moment is coming soon you must love me while you can because soon will come my end I, oh I need to hold your hand in mine when the light has gone from the sky mocking are the shadows still, that means there is light yet really I can't be thrown we each ready our own deaths please dance with me while you can because soon we'll reach the end I, oh I need to hold your hand in mine when the light has gone from the sky your breath on my chest when the black is all that's left I'll dream of always love while I sleep on without hope my heart is an empty city like yours, so full of smoke leftover from tranquility and dreams from which I never woke I'll dream of always love while I sleep on without hope I'll dream of always love
4.
Lavender Wine (Demo) (free) 05:43
lavender wine the sun is up, but things are not all right wildflowers at my bedside seen my colors run until half-past midnight with the curtains drawn I'll hide away, be momentarily gone will you search for me? will you shelter me? will you, will you? chicory eyes the sun is down, but in my dreams you're alive the bitterness within my mind had never seen real love, until you on whom I relied but now the curtains are drawn I can't find my way, but I know you're around so will you search for me? will you shelter me? will you, will you? falling now, will I be caught by you? 'cause fast asleep there is only you and in my dreams you've found me, too
5.
Mississippi (Demo) (free) 04:51
maybe these hills could never set you right or these evergreens grew too high a life spent hidden in the shadows is hardly a life at all, I know but wasn't I more than just a mirage in the desert of your love? on that friday, you crossed the mississippi said goodbye a bird in the sky here I will stay along the mississippi, until you come home to me maybe it's true, I never came to mind when you chose to leave this all behind but of your life, sister, I wonder were you ever struck with such sonder? and wasn't this riverbank more than enough for the pasture of your love? on that friday, you crossed the mississippi said goodbye a bird in the sky here I will stay along the mississippi, until you come home to me maybe one day the torrents will bring you back, noting how the time moves too fast and every winter will come too soon this time, I pray your flowers will have bloomed here I will stay along the mississippi, until you come home to me here I stay, along the mississippi, until you come home to me
6.
Disassembled (Demo) (free) 04:49
you said I could be greater, just brush off the dust but my love, I am a sinner I am stiff with rust floods wash everything away but in the rain, we learn to find home because only sturdy stones remain am I made of sturdy bones? oh, can we mend the things I've spent so long disassembling? oh, will you always believe in me? can you see the day that I'll be clean? I suppose I could be stronger, but tidal waves pull me down and I never realize until it's over that because of me you've been tossed around oh, can we mend the things I've spent so long disassembling? oh, will you always believe in me? can you see the day that I'll be clean? can we mend these things? I'm just a broken thing can we mend these things? we're just a broken thing oh, can we mend the things I've spent so long disassembling? oh, will you always believe in me? can't you see the day that I'll be clean? oh, we can mend the things I've spent so long rearranging oh, you will always believe in me and I know one day that we'll be clean
7.
Peak Season (Demo) (free) 03:47
in peak season, the sorrowers are sowing the greens are endless growing though night will come, just so will come the morning all will sing those sanguine stories of how the dark won't last too long no, the dark won't last too long but in those cold, gray months, the worriers are weeping, the wounded, worn and weary and though the sun comes up, nothing clears away the sorrow nothing melts away the snow how the nights go on and on still, the dark never lasts too long spring will come soon and deliver you from heartache and prepare you for the harvest yes, your buds will bloom so sorrower, keep sowing your greens are endless growing though night will come, so then will come the morning all will sing those sanguine stories of how the dark won't last too long no, the dark won't last
8.
an acre in the city the park where we met under the big oak tree, you took my hand pennies in the fountain you longed for me, but the road of wanting is crowded concrete you said wandering these streets never felt more like home wandering these streets never felt more like home flowers in the garden you picked me without ever knowing what it is you'd need you said wandering these streets never felt more like home, but these crowded streets are all you had ever called home penniless and hungry I found you, but there wasn't really too much I could do you see, only you can give the validation you seek only you can give the validation you seek
