Track Name: Shoulders & Turns
My eyes don’t feel alone in the dark
Take these shadows on from a spark
Shine this light and make your mark
Tonight we’ll break our words apart

My eyes gone heavy
As our fingers sift the ground
And I see you ready
As your feet move to my sounds

I can see the way to be
Is growing branches out of leaves
And we may tread so carefully
As shoulders roll and turn with ease

My eyes gone heavy
As our fingers sift the ground
And I hold you steady
As your feet move to my sounds

I can see the way to be
Is growing branches out of leaves
And we may tread so carefully
As shoulders turn and roll with ease
Track Name: Cocaine Starry Eyes
Stepping upstreet, sliding down deep
Risking our necks on ice
Using your glow to guide me home

Met a man who knew the world
Through cocaine starry eyes
Making his way to growing old
Making his way to growing

We set fire to both our hands
We both swore to fall in love

Caught in tangles, shaking halos
Trapped in my skin and bones
Smiling under our heavy eyes

Feel your shivers, taste the winter
Burning in a silvery sky
I'd rather fall short than never try
Rather fall short than never

We set fire to both our hands
And we both swore to fall in love

So break down quiet measures
Hold on, last forever
Suddenly don't mean a thing
Suddenly, everything

Suddenly, everything

We set fire to both our hands
We both swore to fall in love
Track Name: Inventing Letters (The Suitcase Song)
Summer’s dressed up in a spell
Shaking chests like ringing bells
Lay with me like show and tell
Tricking me like wishing wells

I saw your fingers keep your eyes from feeling weak

Steal the flowers off your lips
Let you trace my tired hips
Chip your nails inside my head
Inventing letters beside my bed

I saw your fingers keep your eyes from feeling weak

I’ll pack you like a suitcase and carry you home

So say goodbye to skin
We’ve got hearts wrap ourselves in

I’ll pack you like a suitcase and carry you home

So listen to that choir
I’ve wrapped them in bed sheets, tuned them to your desire
So let your fingers bleed
Turn blossoms to cherries
And try to make the most of your toughest homemade ghosts

Lay with me like show and tell
Tricking me like wishing wells
Oh the chances I could take if I could turn your face

I’ll pack you like a suitcase and carry you home
Track Name: Tiny Fires
My body’s wrapped in shambles but you’ve always liked me black and blue
Getting over love get drunk above and float back to you
I’ve got bruises on my lips from keeping in all those flashing scenes
And the stumble of your dress picks up my chest in those songs I’d sing

Take my body
Fill it like an urn
With all the ashes
Of the tiny fires we burned

Tumble up ahead and knock our heads as you make the most
Rattle up real slow, get low and feel your tone take the host
There’ll be no love lost I'm just losing my mind
From breathing the dust of those bones you’d grind

Take my body
Fill it like an urn
With all the ashes
Of the tiny fires we burned

Take my body
Fill it like an urn
With all the ashes
Of the tiny fires we burned

You’ve got maps
Across your eyes
And I’ve seen smoke
Through bloodshot skies
