- A Faceless Death
when you die i'll rearrange your bones
into the shape of an animal you love
but o then a faceless death
we knew would come
forces me to make up one
i will cover your bone frame in fur
construct wings from the bones of dead birds
these wings bound to your shoulders
- A Giver
if you save the princess from the castle
where she is kept by a cruel and evil spell
i will send a red raven to you
the raven will bring you all that you ask for
you only ask for water and food
you're pious and good for this i will reward you
with any other thing you can think to ask for
you only ask for my namesake star
- Ashes From Your Burning Wood
If I were really cold I'd set my cello on fire,
to keep warm,
I'd smash it into kindling,
forgetting its a living thing,
with strings,
made of veins,
oh the body is a breathing thing,
it swells with the heat and rain,
- drink yourself to death
when he sat next to me and played
i thought maybe his heart and mine
were somehow the same
cruel words he's compelled me to sing
sing them i will no longer sincerely
just drink yourself to death
so i never have to see you again
i know my love, it sounds cruel
- Fake Yer Death
Fake yer death, if you need to
To afford distractions from the living, oh
You can make a body out of plaster soaked in your own blood
Then leave the body in your bed
Covered with the sheet like you were murdered in your sleep
You can burn your house down and leave some bones
Make sure the bones look something like your own
- Hewn
i have met the murderer
we drank together
seen him pass by everyday
and had been warned to keep away
we never make a plan
he understands
to walk around, under noon skies
- Nightgaunt
cuckoo clock ticking as loud as a war
measures how long it's been knocking at the door
it hits harder
the door collapses
this is what fear is
fear is a nightgaunt trespassing
caring not if you let it in
- Simon Sent For Me
simon sent for me
sent telepathically
"lady please come
come to the valley"
get out of the oceans
and into the caves
don't drink from haunted fountains
stop robbing graves for love
- suicide kiss
The sky is falling always pulling
it is strange how people always seem
To fall in love
And now that we are in the dark
It keeps crawling as it tells to make love
The ones we love
Because dead
Because dead
- Swamp
I pulled my hands out of your hand
I said
"I'm sorry to begin again
I'm leaving for a man
Frying chicken all day long
Your hair smells of grease
I bathe with you
I stink of it too
- Take Her Away
someone take her away from me
i'm happier than i should be
we've been skipping school together
to pillage the pharmacy
at night on the boardwalk
we rode the time machine
i tried so hard not to touch her hand
