A Dog Named Castrato

I saw you standing there
With a bow in your hair
With a bow in your hair
Lightning strikes and you hit the ground
Almost as if you had a crown
Almost as if you had a crown
Thoughts come barking out
What was just seen
I had something in mind for just you and me
And here you are
Motionless on the ground
I'm gonna walk away now
I need a drink
I turn around as fast as I can
Head down don't want to see you again
Gotta find the closest stranger
Inform them of the danger
More bolts set the place ablaze
Crowds in the city trapped like a maze
Is this the end
Sirens fill the night time sky
As I come alive
Come alive
I saw you laying there
You pop up with just one stare
You pop up with one stare
You glance at me but do you even care
That a dog can float in air
That a dog can float in the air
And I've seen these buildings fall a thousand times
Kinda like I've seen it all in a previous life
And this gift has been given to me
This gift was given to me
I turn around as fast as I can
Head down don't want to see you again
Gotta find the closest stranger
Inform them of the danger
More bolts set the place ablaze
Crowds in the city trapped like a maze
This the end (x5)

Little jewel of mischief
You're better looking than
Who you remind of
As the lion eats the sun
I never considered her a triumph
Dream catcher you went and passed them off as your own
But aren't our dreamers still dreaming for us all
You tried your best
I ran abreast
All I've ever known
Give up the ghost
But on time we can't rely to change for us
As if we're right back to second nature
By and by and meanwhile I ask myself
Would you rather miss their lips or never have been that close
Been that close
Been that close
You tried your best
I ran abreast
All I've ever known
Give up the ghost
The darkness
Darkness
The darkness
Been that close

Centuries
05:16
|

Pulsing through their veins
Shackled rivals with rusted chains
Disputing sides for centuries
Stringed lives like accessories
Any feelings felt for you
Doesn't outweigh the blood due
I will wait for you
For centuries the blood is due
I will wait for you
This courtship is not ours to brew
To brew
For centuries
I see your figure in the doorway
Is it really you
Crooked paintings on the wall
Mirrors crack before they begin to fall
His hand reaches out the more it extends
The more he doubts before it begins
Fingertips on keys subside
Fill it up but still hollow inside
A quiet memento
Acquired momentum
A quiet momentum
For centuries
I will wait for you
For centuries the blood is due
I will wait for you
This courtship is not ours to brew
To brew
For centuries

Movies At Sea

Take a look around
I'm on your side
Mold a mind
Think of which door you choose
Yeah which door
Yeah which door
Someday
Someday I will die
Just when I get around
To it it's too late
Just when I get around
To these added mistakes
It's in the fall
No call at all
I thought you'd always be round
Dead leaves on trees
I guess it doesn't mean a thing to me
I thought you'd always be round
Hey
Someday
Someday
Someday I'll know
Which door
Which door
Someday I'll know
Take a look around
Who's on your side
Minds get rotted
Who can you blame
And does time heal our wounds
Someday
Because someday I will die
Just when I get around
To it it's too late
Just when I get around
To these added mistakes
It's in the fall
No call at all
I thought you'd always be round
Dead leaves on trees
I guess it doesn't mean a thing to me
I thought you'd always be round
For movies at sea

One Last Dream
03:20
|

My passion
It rings true
But what am I to do
When it's time
Death comes for all of us
Got a little light inside of my eye burning for you
It ain't exactly likely but I gotta give it try anyway
Got a little light inside of my eye burning for you
It matters not so long as I get there
Maybe in this life in a wheelchair
Yeah the moths they follow
Yeah the moths they follow
It seems like yesterday
That moths flew in droves
Right up into my house
Perhaps this is all one last dream
And why can't you see
Got a little light inside of my eye burning for you
It ain't exactly likely but I gotta give it try anyway
Got a little light inside of my eye burning for you
It matters not so long as I get there
Maybe in this life in a wheelchair
The way I see it
The time is now
Yeah the moths they follow
Yeah the moths they follow
My passion it rings true
But what am I to do when it's time

Haunting You
05:03
|

Can you turn around
And look me in the eye
What are you afraid of
All the praise you get but yet you still hide
What was it that you said to me
I promise that you are my everything
Seen that look before
Let's save it for another day
And I see that you have given up again
Just like the many times before
You can't shut me out
I am stronger than all the things that are haunting you (x3)
You can't
You can't
You can't
Shut me out (x2)
There will come a day
You will walk outside and not feel a thing
You don't need a crutch
Girl you can walk just fine
What was it that you said to me
I promise that you are my everything
Seen that look before
Let's save it for another day
You can't shut me out
I am stronger than all the things that are haunting you (x5)
Home home sweet home there's no place like home (x2)
