Andaman Sea 04:20
And then I thought, "If this is it, then let it come." These are just lines on a map I erase them Up through the clouds till there's nothing But the morning stars Oh, when I woke it was night I had lost a day I thought of my mom How she'd comb my hair And pull the ticks away And then I thought, "What moon is this below me tonight?" And then i thought, " Which sea is this, black and silver in the moonlight?" And then i thought that i could leave the dark, but didn't know how And then i thought "No Shape, no time, no nothing can hold me now?" And then I thought, "If this is it, then let it come."

Enlisted 02:52
Oh, I read it wrong The look she gave when the fight began Then her face drained Like a wolf changes white in winter's bed All men live and all men die So why can't I? Why Can't I? I watched my hands fly from my side Two giant white bats That cut the line And lighted in the black hills of men And signed my name As if i wasn't there Now I guard the valley floor And none can see me And none shall pass All men live and all men die So why can't I? Why Can't I?

Black church made of lava sings Kids kiss and joke and skate on the steps Why am i the lucky one - To get a taste of the world has done? A two tone siren rang I found a harmony And heard the church bells clang Your voice shines like a sword White-silver in the setting sun The blue stone alleys wind Saint Michael slays the devil for the millionth time Why are we the lucky ones? Tonight we get to sing our songs.

Close your eyes and go to sleep And when you wake, you'll wake to be With all the dreams You thought were torn down Close your eyes We're homeward bound Windows down, the rain feels good Light and warm as the evening comes Blue hills, black fences all around Close your eyes We're homeward bound Close your eyes and go to sleep And when you wake, you'll wake to be With all the dreams You thought were torn down Close your eyes We're homeward bound
