The Grove 04:27
Owel: Step back, baby. Don't come near, I’m bad luck charming of a broken mirror. Fear you're gonna read what I wrote with a closed mind Or with closed eyes. I'd explain it but there's no time. Follow all the road signs, end with the water. Bought a one way ticket for friendship departure. Together in the dark, it’s a battle when the sun's up. A shadow in the feel of loves clutch when our tongues touch. Thumb sucked, wasn't in lust but pain. Didn't know it was tough. Wishing it was the same. You remember when I was stuck hard by the graveyard cupid? We'd make dark music and break my heart to it. Native art moving to the worst. Gotta get a grip. Never found a home on a road made of yellow bricks. Evidence, everything's a part of the development. Heaven said relief, but the reason was the hell of it (chorus) We took a walk by the grove The moment's already through We couldn't give up the ghost The ghost was all that we knew Afraid of feeling disposed, Disowned, dishonoured and used Just say those three little words I’ll tell you "and I you" Corboe: It’s all water under the bridge Another brick in the wall the last straw that’s dangerous Like this unoccupied mind thinking what if A flickering light is out sorta calling it quits Abandon ship against all odd You’re stuck banging rocks together trying to make a spark She’s gotta stop playing nicky nine door with your heart enough's enough she's either there or she's not Call it whatever you want, like a lot to handle Too much dead weight yah sprained an ankle Label it a mistake and cancel, save peso and let go slow Break it down baby give me some more Let me feel heat cuz the airs dam cold No sword in the stone but a pen in my hear It’s the little things in life that will tear us apart (chorus) We took a walk by the grove The moment's already through We couldn't give up the ghost The ghost was all that we knew Afraid of feeling disposed, Disowned, dishonoured and used Just say those three little words I’ll tell you "and I you"

Sad Girl 03:53
Owel: No sleep, no escape from a mad world. Tear drop on the face of a sad girl. Real talk in the form of a whimper. "Heat died down in the cold of the winter" Go through cinders; try to find the faulty parts Buy yourself a clue and maybe put it in a shopping cart. You wanna shine bright and move the fantasy far to, ironically, a city where you can't see stars. Got to start fresh or the plan will be lost. i said " the world may be yours but the tragedy's ours" and "what a loss". We could turn into a tragic song. Every day we could play Rashomon Sacrificial days passing on Albion be Avalon. Turn your back and I grab your arm. How do you disappear with the magic gone? (chorus) The autumn recedes with nothing more than a shrug, while the sad girl bleeds coloured black pearl blood. She's taking a leap but nothings ever enough for fallen leaves to fall in love. The autumn recedes with nothing more than a shrug, while the sad girl bleeds coloured black pearl blood. She's taking a lead but nothings ever enough for fallen leaves to fall in ..... (bridge 1) to fall in love like autumn leaves could fall in love I’m on my knees to pick you up like fallen leaves could fall in love Corboe: Her eyes say we've all been blinded by the light our heart she can't find it were cold as ice in her mind she vibrant the flashy type that hides pain with silence talking quite muttering still a faint whisper in the dark you don't know if it’s real it kinda hits you in the heart kid how do you feel you’re at a fork in road I suppose spin the wheel there’s no stepping stone no mass appeal just a diamond in the rough with the dirt concealed and a blank stare that repairs and heels with that soothing touch that's as cold as steel Its so surreal when the sad girls dancing the way she moves in that timeless fashion one of those sorta good for you bad habits/ you can't let go when the kiss is magic (bridge 2) Love It ain't love Although it might sound rough that this might be lust, well it sure ain't love (chorus) The autumn recedes with nothing more than a shrug, while the sad girl bleeds coloured black pearl blood. She's taking a lead but nothings ever enough for fallen leaves to fall in love. The autumn recedes with nothing more than a shrug, while the sad girl bleeds coloured black pearl blood. She's taking a lead but nothings ever enough for fallen leaves to fall in .....

Hannah 03:59
Tovah: Although we float and weave through time, The writing on the wall says "The End Is Nigh" So flightless birds will pretend to fly And black out the sky Let this world be laid to rest Like your head is on my chest. History will fall into an ocean of death And hope for the best When all the mountains wear to dust Every single kiss we shared will still endure for us, They say. What about all they say? Corboe: Who’s to blame for the wrong turn The song bird that's late for the concert I've heard you gotta make it all worth while Pick an anthem learn the words and smile Like its all business don't cramp my style Put your dancing shoes on walk that mile You’re moving on up next stop success How you got there you were dressed to impress I guess Owel: Microphone check, one, two, what is this? I want to get a handle on your tough existence. It’s hard to miss with your wings exposed That you finger got a prick from the English rose. You were indisposed when you had to tell a lullaby. Handful of memories, a belly full of butterflies. Running out of many things, if anything, it wasn't time. We could even take it to the moment that we left behind (Chorus) When all the mountains wear to dust Every single kiss we shared will still endure for us, They say. What about all they say? Owel: Every kiss pressed deep to leave scars Til we get to the point where we are. T-O-G-E-T-H-E-R F-O-R-E-V-E-R Wept over weeping guitars, disappearing is a real big waste If you fall like tears under the star lit year, then tell me "alright dear, well let’s leave this place" Corboe: All I hear is I need a break I gotta get my foot in the door someday They say be glad you exist if you wanna get far you gotta work hard for it Ride cars and accomplishments Get credits card debt and be gone with it Get a wife a divorce think positive its a means to an end here a starter kit (Chorus) When all the mountains wear to dust Every single kiss we shared will still endure for us, They say. What about all they say? Those choices led to impending doom. Your voice has echoed in empty rooms. If it haunts you, tell me it haunts you too. If you want to, tell me you want to soon.

New Gates 04:46
(chorus) We've been lost and found Crumbled and thrown around Is underneath the ground Where we belong? Corboe: Another one bites the dust You know one day it will be us We’ll all fade away in god we trust To make doves cry and such To free our minds of doubt sure enough He did last week but it filled back up It’s too much to handle baby don't feel rushed In due time you'll understand this stuff This love and lust yah know the bird and the bees The finer things in life interrupt your dreams A jigsaw puzzle with a missing piece That you'll only gonna find when your six feet deep Way down beneath these crowded streets, is where it hides you'll find the key, So dry your eyes cuz clock don't lie and time flies by quickly (chorus) We've been lost and found Crumbled and thrown around Is underneath the ground Where we belong? New gates burning in the corners of her smile There's new gates burning in the... Owel: Drive me down beneath the surface. Sell souls, redeem the worthless. Casting roles defeats the purpose. Shadow played by Ian Curtis. Feel the nervous overload. Take a breath, the next episode is slow Got a paycheque but it left them comatose Turned stage left to the stairs and overdose HOLD THAT THOUGHT, give me a minute. No, I don't do drugs so i got to be a cynic. Though I wanna get a ticket for the lottery and win it, For the winning numbers, honestly, you gotta be a wizard. Possibly I’m bitter with a sweet tooth smile And I wanna get to up to feel down for a while. Like, wow. Why the hell do I bother? To author all the words I can't offer? (chorus) We've been lost and found Crumbled and thrown around Is underneath the ground Where we belong? Where we belong Beneath me I hear you We've been lost and found Crumbled and thrown around Is underneath the ground Where we belong? Where we be Where we belong Beneath me I hear you moan New Gates Burning In The Corners Of Her Smile
