the rattle
04:05

heed the rattle
the shivering inside
simple things forgotten
chatter at you right through the night
from the rooms in the house
that you're afraid to use
windows in a fortress
i eye the openings
tongue a drawn up drawbridge
a delicious thing that keeps the secrets in
you are locked
and the keys
are frozen in the moat
pressed against the door
my axe stuck in the ice
heed the rattle
it tells you where to go
through the terraced gardens
into the wilderness below
to see the scene
behind the scenery
sleeping in a city
walled against the world
sleeping inner cities
tower in you
waiting for the word
that the guard is asleep
..the towers empty out
what's the guard against?
and why is he so tired?
sleeping on the ice
dreaming of the fire

at the edge of the dark
where the numbers arrive
to collide
crunching steps on the cold gravel drive
gavels for eyes
they fell on our door
the things that we thought
put us up in some fine hotels
and down in some hells
we called to the help
but the line to outside
could not be untied
so we held
until the numbers arrived
count on the truth to add up to a point
factors ignored
multiply in the dark
sharpen your knife,
say goodbye to your wife..
it's time to collide.
the darkness divides
when the numbers arrive.
because the dark has nowhere to hide.

hunters compete
02:26
|
|||
we woke up on your bed
rolling in the fire
my faults have fallen out..
a hunter trained to compete,
i quiver in my sleep
if the quarry digs too deep
but when our sights line up
a trigger pulls inside
oh desire..
you are divine
beautiful hours
when i was at your throat
a hunter trained to compete
like every man you meet
it's our inheritance to defeat.
now my skin is on your floor
and dreams are free to drift
i see a future
riding at your side
and beautiful hours
when i am on my own
sharpening arrows

downward runs
06:09
|
|||
pack your life onto your back
leave the comfort you love
your heart is beating a path
into a crack that's opening up
the stable shook
the bridal broke
the air whispered to run
and underneath your skin
you found your bones
ridden by a ghost
who spurs you on
and off and on
beyond the furthest fence
cabin in the wilderness
shadow fills in the air
the sun falls over the edge
and invites you down
and as an echo comes
an echo comes
an echo
an echo goes..
a ghost is haunted alone
dying to dig up a home
that's more than just an old box of bones
urrrrrrrr

wilderness tips
03:26
|
|||
that faded fast
now it's too dark to see
where in the garden
we hid the seeds
images slide from the screen
and the wilderness tips
you wake up in a different dream
but you never see them changing the scene
fingerprints in the air
and the sense of what is to be
push me down a different street
a shadow catching up with its feet

levelling
07:01
|
|||
in the cellar
old constructions
riddles in the air
the lost among the cobwebs
draining bottles of the past
how did.. why was.. did she..
while you mumble back at era echoes
the ghost is restless up above..
rattles in the night
so just walk up the stairs
summon up the sun
and get some work begun
on your heart
