THREE SQUARE ROOMS:
Three square rooms and a lonely heart,
That’s been my deal for a little while now
Everyday seems that much longer,
I think I’m losing myself, I won’t surrender, no
Yeah I’ve been keeping to myself
But baby not for long
I think I smell something beautiful
You’ll hear it in a song
Two little strangers to each other
Not strictly speaking for their moment was to come
Cause these days I’m thinking so much clearer,
No more worries in mind, but something very fine
Yeah I’ve been keeping to myself
But baby not for long
I think I smell something beautiful
You’ll hear it in a song
One big heart and a big ol’ smile
It’s late but still, I’m trying to figure out my luck.
It seems the sun’s been shining brighter
Maybe the stars have alined and that’s fine, by me
Yeah that’s fine by me
Yeah I’ve been keeping to myself
But baby not for long
I think I smell something beautiful
You’ll hear it in a song

MELANIE:
Melanie, you just don’t belong,
You’re bending time and shapes just like Dali
You’re nothing compared to Socrates
I thought I heard 10 000 words, but you just proved me wrong
Watch the sun rise and just see yourself
Coming alive, yeah it’s there for you
I know you now in two different lights
But Misses, no, I could not see what you’d reveal to me
I know you’ve been broken and battered again
But please let the day end and try again tomorrow
Your thoughts can’t be clear no you hardly sleep
And write like it rains, no control through the weather
Blood on these strings from stroking too hard
From cutting yourself in your sleep, I didn’t even notice
The blood in these sheets, the blood my eyes,
The blood in these sheets, I didn’t even notice.
Tell me how I how tricked you, and led you to believe
That a garden full of flowers is just what you would need
Tell me again about the simple things that you didn’t think I’d want
Something real and really simple, but I didn’t get that chance
I don’t think it’s luck, I just know I don’t want the
Church and bells with you
I know that hurts but days have passed and now I’m happy
I’m sorry I went and opened the door and gave you so much hope
I’m sorry I went and opened the door but that's the way it goes
I know you’ve been broken and battered again
But please let the day end and try again tomorrow
Your thoughts can’t be clear no you hardly sleep
And write like it rains, no control through the weather/
Blood on these strings from stroking too hard
From cutting yourself in your sleep, I didn’t even notice/
The blood in my sheets, the blood my eyes,
The blood in my sheets, I didn’t even notice.

The Abyss

THE ABYSS:
Who lied and told me sun will rise
As it comes up lights up the sky
Where I am black is all the style
And all the lawyers do deny
I wish I’d carry on and go
Anywhere just so you would know
I’m gone and never coming back
So lay me down in a union jack
You owe your life to the abyss
And I heard that ignorance is bliss
The king is back and wants your head
Don’t you feel bad, that's what he said
I wish I’d carry on and go
Anywhere just so you would know
I’m gone and never coming back
So lay me down in a union jack
Northern star, light up the way home
While drops of sound are trickling down
Adjust your brightness to my stone
Towering mountain standing alone
I wish I’d carry on and go
Anywhere just so you would know
I’m gone and never coming back
So lay me down in a union jack

GREAT EXPANSES:
I think I’m going back to England
Nothing to keep me here for now
I've seen all there is to see, take it away
Go ahead, try and keep me here
I’m going down down to the country and it’s scaring me to death
The air is way too pristine and my lungs can’t take the breath
So give me back my city, cigarettes and hookers tonight tonight, Cigarettes and hookers tonight
Take your horse and your cart, why don’t you go back home alive, go back home alive
We’re out hunting the wild, yeah
Great expanses here we come
Me and my family rolling down streets
We packed it all in last night for the week
Me and my family rolling down streets
We packed it all in last night for the week
Can’t sleep, I’m way too wired,
We’re going to the beach next July
Can’t sleep, I’m way too wired,
We’re going to the beach next July
We’re out hunting the wild, yeah
Great expanses here we come
Kid wants to row in his own canoe
Parents know better, they won’t send him home
Kid now does it every summer
I’ll see you later, I’m going down, down, down
