The Boat 03:19
Ah there, a yi ba di ba dum Ah there, a yi ba di ba dum Ah there, a yi ba di ba dum Ah there, a yi ba di ba dum All the way home In the new boat All the way home I would look up I would hope for a conversion I would hope for an immersion Hi hi hi hi ho a di ba di ba Hi hi ho a di ba di ba Ah there, a yi ba di ba dum Ah there, a yi ba di ba dum Ah there, a yi ba di ba dum Ah there, a yi ba di ba dum When it hits you You will know it When they choose you They will show it It's your ticket to forever It's your homeplate It's your tether Hi hi hi hi ho a di ba di ba Hi hi ho a di ba di ba All that I thought All that I wrote All that I said with my eyes closed Show me somehow that I'm okay Let me know I won't be castaway Hi hi hi hi ho a di ba di ba Hi hi ho a di ba di ba Ah there, a yi ba di ba dum Ah there, a yi ba di ba dum Ah there, a yi ba di ba dum Ah there, a yi ba di ba dum

The Ocean 02:47
Little stream will you make it to the ocean? Little stream will you make it to the ocean? From the car it looked just like the ocean course I'd never ever seen the ocean maybe I could turn into a mermaid swim it clean swim it clean Little stream will you make it to the ocean? Little stream will you make it to the ocean? Prairie girl, what did I know about deep waves? What did I know about sea scapes? No, I don't belong here City girl, what did I know about city streets and everything that's underneath I need to leave I need to leave cause I can't breathe under water I can't breathe under water I can't breathe under water Little stream will you make it to the ocean? Little stream will you make it to the ocean?

Lightning 02:19
When the darkness comes now I look for your lightning I know it might hurt me but it's also exciting I have no defense I'm a turtle with no shell I'm swimming in the ocean and it's scary as hell I have a new dress Wearing it is dangerous I think that it's clean though but it has a lot of stains, yes I wear it when I'm with you I think that you like it It matches your lightning but to me it feels frightning I love you at least I think I do but I know it could be reckless for a vulnerable fool I have no defense I'm a turtle with no shell I'm swimming in the ocean and it's scary as hell

Longshot 03:25
What I want, what I need baby What I want, what I need What I want, what I need baby What I want, what I need Don't you know I love you Don't you know that I'll do what I need to do to get you back again Sail a ship across the ocean Make a film about my devotion Promise next time I will do better Pour my heart out into a letter But I waited too long and you don't like this song done too many things wrong I don't know What I want, what I need baby what I want, what I need What I want, what I need baby What I want, what I need Yes, I know there's lots of fish in the sea but for some reason you mean so much more to me than any other one So, if you have feelings for me Let them show, no, you'll never bore me I fell apart when you said you're leaving but I never quite stopped believing that we were meant to be that you'd bend on one knee planting our family tree in the stars or maybe on Mars Come on, come on back to me...

Forms 03:20
Forms, falling from the sky Forms, falling from on high I'm sailing on a paper sea Once I felt a little bit free Once the world felt open to me but forms Once I thought I'd give it a try Once my wings felt ready to fly but forms forms Forms, falling from the sky Forms, falling from on high I'm sailing on a paper sea What's this form you're serving me now? You want to feel free and think you know how but forms? Forms, falling from the sky Forms, falling from on high I'm sailing on a paper sea I'm drowning someone rescue me

Falling 04:31
Falling apart, falling apart Falling Falling Falling apart, falling apart Falling Falling Falling apart, falling apart Falling Falling Falling apart, falling apart Falling Falling Mid-way down is where it happens Mid-way down you're beautiful I see your body in full motion I see your body I see your soul Part of a whole part of a whole part of a whole Part of a whole part of a whole part of a whole Part of a whole part of a whole part of a whole Part of a whole part of a whole part of a whole Falling apart, falling apart Falling Falling Falling apart, falling apart Falling Falling Falling apart, falling apart Falling Falling Falling apart, falling apart Falling Falling Did you wonder how it happened, how you stumbled, lost control? Did you hope someone would help you? Did you pray for a miracle? Falling apart, falling apart Falling Falling Falling apart, falling apart Falling Falling Falling apart, falling apart Falling Falling Falling apart, falling apart Falling Falling Did you wonder why we stood watching? Did our stillness break your heart Part of a whole part of a whole part of a whole...

Pantheon 05:23
You're my prison you know not what you do You're forgiven but I'm so afraid of you You're my prison your faces on the screen You're my prison you're in a magazine You're my prison you're everywhere I go so, I stay home and just turn the lights down low You're my prison cause I see god in you You're my prison and I don't know what to do You're my prison and it's all intentional You're my judges and you've sentenced me to Hell, oh hello You're much better, better than you know You hold it all together only let the good parts show You make choices that bring you wealth and fame You never need to spell or tell somebody your name You're so charming and it's like you smile at me But you keep leaving me alone in agony You're my prison cause I see god in you You're my prison and I don't know what to do You're my prison and it's all intentional You're my judges and you've sentenced me to Hell, oh hello You're my prison when I tune in to your show You're my prison and you're everywhere I go I try to be like you but I know I never will cause you tell me what I need to do and I don't fit the bill If I'm not with you then I really am nowhere You come down to save me but then leave me in the air You're my prison cause I see god in you You're my prison and I don't know what to do You're my prison and it's all intentional You're my judges and you've sentenced me to Hell, oh hello Every day's the same as I dress and feed myself One of you said doing this might be good for my health I look in the mirror and I don't like what I see I try some product supposed to give me perfect teeth Then this dilemma cause I'm lonely here I know Do I go outside and just let my insides show You're my prison cause I see god in you You're my prison and I don't know what to do You're my prison and it's all intentional You're my judges and you've sentenced me to Hell, oh hello Oh joy, I get to meet you and you shake me by the hand but I know that you will never really see me as I am Everyone defers to you to us you're royalty But now that people worship you you never will be free Somehow that's a comfort to your worshippers in chains Knowing that you're chained by them too loosens up the reins You're my prison cause I see god in you You're my prison and I don't know what to do You're my prison and it's all intentional You're my judges and you've sentenced me to Hell, oh hello I need a presence not a prison I need a presence not a prison I need a presence not a prison and someone to please, please tell me who to be

Arriving 03:35
They broke me in many places taught me I would never fly Always trusting, I believed them and later wished that I could die later wished that I could die Arriving Arriving Arriving like I did before Arriving as from a journey Arriving at your door Do you want me? Am I forgiven? I fear that I will never know Never sure if I belong here but there's nowhere else for me to go nowhere else for me to go Arriving Arriving Arriving like I did before Arriving as from a journey Arriving at your door Sometimes I think I see you shining through the windowpane Regardless of all they tell us I think that, to you, we're all the same I think that, to you, we're all the same Arriving Arriving Arriving like I did before Arriving as from a journey Arriving at your door Arriving Arriving Arriving like I did before Arriving as from a journey Arriving at your door Arriving at your door

Changeling 02:48
Run away, couldn't stay Run away, they had to from the changeling It gets dangerous when I'm turning inside-out All the elements and angry creatures in my mouth when you came along I tried to warn you that I will crumble in your arms and change to something stranger still Don't know who I am Don't know who I am, no Don't know who I am Don't know who I am, no The changeling Back when I was three fairies took me from my bed left an effigy an imitation me instead Now, to set me free, you need to hold me to your chest and with tenacity keep the true and brave the rest Don't know who I am Don't know who I am, no Don't know who I am Don't know who I am, no The changeling Will you hold me now? Will you hold me now? Will you hold me now and now? and now? and now? and now? and now?

When you're at the edge and you take one step back sun's on your face like it's saying, "Welcome home" and you don't feel alone anymore When you're in the market for hopeless cases wind comes up, but it only braces cause our love: it's a beautiful thing A beautiful thing A beautiful thing A beautiful thing A beautiful thing Things are looking up so I'll second-guess it Give me something good and I'll make a mess of it Given half a chance I would walk right through that door you wouldn't see me no more I'd lose a beautiful thing a beautiful thing A beautiful thing A beautiful thing A beautiful thing A beautiful thing Don't go running away now Don't you go running away now Don't go running away now No Maybe there's good reason to get excited Maybe there's a demon you have to fight it Maybe in the meantime you'll just say, "what the hell, we're doing well. And it's a beautiful thing a beautiful thing." A beautiful thing A beautiful thing A beautiful thing A beautiful thing
