Heaven Alive 03:52
Oh how it cut me up I caught my mother crying Into a muslin cloth And I thought I'd died I went to heaven alive Cold and tied in knots Cannot sleep for dreaming Hope I'll wake up lost As I thought I'd died I went to heaven alive I thought I'd died I went to heaven alive

Cum Summer 03:45
Sweeter than a tangerine Swinging on my favourite tree Dip your nipples in Vaseline As I've broke your skin with my teeth Peel me now and come inside me Sip my juice until I'm dry please I'm not the apple that was tempting to Eve Will the snake still smile for me? Taste me with you tongue and shed your skin Slither down my middle from my chin Leave nothing left for later don't sleep Will your snake still smile for me? Tighter than a tambourine Shaking like a wizard's sleeve Coat your nipples in plasticine As I broke your skin with my teeth Taste me with you tongue and shed your skin Slither down my middle from my chin Leave nothing left for later don't sleep Will your snake still smile for me?

My Sunday 03:13
It's Sunday And tears splash on your grave By Monday The dope arrives I'm saved And I'm back in the fog feeling nothing at all Back in the mist feeling lazy and shit Friday The residual pain kicks in It's Sunday And everybody's high at my place By Monday The citalopram kicks in I'm safe And I'm back in the fog feeling nothing at all Back in the mist feeling lazy and shit By Friday The residual pain kicks in If I knew any better I wouldn't follow you through Delamere I saw the smack and the leather I lost a lot of you that I never knew My Sunday Didn't know any better And if I knew any better I wouldn't follow you through Delamere

Ludlow, let me in From Piano's to Max Fish I'll shake my fear Lower East Side leave me be From the Rivington to Arlene's I still don't feel right Mary-Lou Lord Turn your car around Take a cab to Brooklyn quick Find my way back to North Six I'll shake my fear Dear Lewis, let me in Freezing breath and my shirt is thin And I still don't feel right Mary-Lou Lord Turn your car around Lanaiah Turn your words around Lanaiah

Colic 06:50
Douse your coat in daddy's petrol I'll be waiting with mother's matches Mumbled rumours of pleasure and violence Like poetry Like music to me Drown your clothes in Derek's diesel I'll be waiting with Sylvia's lighter Old wives tale of pleasure and violence Like poetry Like music to me And we all sing from the same hymn sheet

Although the beat was wrong And the weed too strong I still drag myself there Don't know anyone here And the liquor's so dear That I can't take you home And cover you in my nanny's coat The one that nanna used to wear the most Smother you in my mother's gold And only leave when my body's cold Just me and the mirror So cold but don't shiver I cannot feel my throat As the room gets lighter My eyes grow tired As I pull over my cover Cover me in my nanny's coat The one that nanna used to wear the most Smother me in my mother's gold And only leave when my body's cold
7.
Dirty Letter 04:06
Black pen, dirty letters Scrawl out my name Wrapped in magpie feathers But I don't feel that way And you told me you'd forgiven me for everything And you said that you'd forgiven me for everything A broken promise A cracked bone A dirty letter A filthy home Dead pen, leather feathers Drowned in piss and gold Very end of my tether But never needed you more And you said that you'd forgiven me for everything And you told me you'd forgiven me for everything A broken promise A cracked bone A dirty letter A filthy home

My Amsterdam 05:59
Where is the dope man? I could have been to Amsterdam And smoked myself to death The time that you've taken I've channelled inner Satan Now I want your blood To spill on the table like Belmont in April Know the roads, they may flood But this won't mean anything And I'll forget everything As soon as you show up Where is the dope man? I could have been to Amsterdam And smoked myself to death You text me I'm shaking You said your teeth are aching And you've made your way back home Well unless you want fake ones I suggest you get a wriggle on Or answer your god damn phone But this won't mean anything And I'll forget everything As soon as we light up

Pass me the loop So I can tie it to you It's more like a noose As I push you from your chair So that I can watch you die As you see me leave the room I can hear you try To chew right through the loop Pass me the glue So I can apply it to you Let's wriggle you loose Untangle every hair So that I can lay you down Bang in the middle of your favourite room I will leave you dry No one will ever have a clue The room grows cold Slowly the tendons they snap in your throat The memory slips so slow You ended in violence Now where's my coat? Pass me the loop So I can tie it to you
10.
As the lights go down Inside your house You open your door Turn your pictures around We'll both lay down On the filthy floor We can talk it out I won't let you down anymore Scrolling through numbers in my old phone Looking at pictures you don't know I own Sniffing the knickers you ripped when you pushed me off Spinning around in the town I was born Forever in debt for your wisdom and love But never been, ever been, forever been so lost Scrolling through numbers in my old phone Looking at pictures you don't know I own Stitching the britches you ripped when you pulled them off Spinning around in the town I was born Forever in debt for your wisdom and love But never been, ever been, forever been so lost
