Chrysalis In Doubt
03:00

Don't let me down.
Get touched once and you're falling on the ground.
Give back what's been taken.
The love that you have made in
bed, so soft, so tender.
You said you'd never love again.
This time I'll give in and give again to you.
Just don't let me down.
Chrysalis, a chrysalis in doubt.
All grown up, but don't want to go out.
You are freshly hidden.
It's a perfect fiction that you are safe and sound.
You said you'd never love again.
This time I'll give in and give again to you.
Just don't let me down.

Monochrome

Got a blue velvet gun.
Got a hair-trigger love
straight out of '41, covered
in monochrome. I take the fall
for you, like a sap.
It's a double double-cross.
My femme fatale lying there
in satin, she's covered in monochrome
and will everlast.
I'm covered in monochrome and
will everlast. I'll take the fall
for you, like a sap.

The One
03:24

This is not some well-planned deception,
designed to get you on your back.
This is not some car-crash serenade,
or a play for sympathetic affection.
This is the one thing that I can do...Fall.
I'm not scared anymore.
as far as I can go I know you're the one
I can fall to.
This is not some three-ring circus escapade,
like jumping through a ring of fire.
This is not normally my style
to dangle my heart on a keychain.
But this is the one thing I can do...Fall.
I'm not scared anymore.
as far as I can go I know you're the one
I can fall to.
This is what I wanted to say... you're the one.
As far as I can go, you're all that I am.
This is all I am, this is all that I am.

Lake
03:17

|

I don't want violins,
and I don’t want any consequence.
I'm a Jake in love, a
weightless wanting to be free of.
I've been seeing my way to you.
Blood doesn't no-where it comes from.
Man and Woman bathed in-no-sense.
I've been seeing my way to you.
I'm seeing you. Seeing is all I can do.
It doesn't seem to ever be enough.

Here's the Snow

Here's the snow.
Here's the snow.
Flowing down like drapes on a river.
Snow. Snow.

Deadly Nightshade
02:52

In the wake. Up, down and gone awry.
I'm paper in your basket, don't tell me
you're not asking why. Don't fear, it's
alright, I won't be in the sun today.
Not all words can have their say or due.
I'm watching them perfectly entwining you.
Don't fear, it's alright,
you won't be in the sun today.
Urge smiles and stands so tall.
Saints making sinners of us all.
Change?
What would our names be?
This forgetful and forbidding time
puts us in a whole new heat-lamp-blistering light.
Don't fear, it's alright,
we won't be in the sun today.
I won't be in the sun today.
