1.
Golden Palms 01:26
My hide is coated with a foreign film dust the pollen from your nose my insolence exposed To mend all them broken water holes with the golden palms that fold like watered women did my heart stop beating young? But why did the menaced heart still drum?
2.
Offering (free) 02:51
Does he dream about your heart?- to be its tired heir its best to measure one by one the things you couldn't love If he dreams about your hair is it all he dreams about? By the hand of shivered water our eyes can be in love a brazen claw a plague of pleading dogs (curse this heart)- "May the palms of broken daughters strike you down!" My dear Maria i'm going to lure them out You were the first born matron of a fallen land i can't pronounce
3.
Purpose 02:19
Oh love, there is no tire to your name all the dirt in this dusty hollow- spring time for your heart for all them parched little mouths Be a part i can't be apart from your love from all them tired little eyes In the hour of misguided nights that rest in my palm there'll be no idle no more lonesome for my heart can't go where it is sent from it can't stand where it is crippling so farewell my love.
4.
My Idle Bed (free) 03:28
When the ghost beside my bedpost disappears telling ink that knows no purpose picture me Are my hands unclean, is this soiled heart too much? Whispered words once seemed familiar return Tangled limbs that mend together still burn Do his eyes burn brighter beneath your arm? take his hand and clasp together 'Steady child you'll find another...'
5.
Swallows 02:07
6.
And if your heart is an island of itself i'd be the sugar on your tongue Them jealous eyes are gone i'd be the sugar on your tongue When indicisive beauty is enough i'd be the sugar on your tongue Oh! My jealous heart, i'd be the sugar on your tongue What a mess we've become i'd be the sugar on your tongue
7.
Wake 02:05
8.
Promise 01:50
Oh love if you ever come i will write you a letter or sitxy-nine love songs and i wont keep it all tucked away So know if you gotta know that my heart is my keeper (and keep away) cause i can't keep it all tucked away Survive, oh survive this night! we're just sticks in the water my soul is cleansed If you keep it all (be;) my keeper, my prey
