Dark Horses
04:13

The sky is black and the moon is high
And slipping down the sidewalk
I listen to my baby talk
About plans for he and I
I need my strip of the rainbow
I’m tired of feeling so damn low
I won’t face my defeat
Honey we’re coming to edge of the street
These dark horses my oh my
Dark horses my oh my
These dark horses my oh my
I’ve seen my shadow side
It’s growing quick like thick green vines
From my throat escapes a sigh
“These dark horses my oh my”
These dark horses my oh my
Dark horses my oh my
These dark horses my oh my
I’m being swept away by the years
I only drink to dry the tears
I’m being swept away by the years
I only drink to dry the tears

Leaving Rose Bay

Goodbye, Rose Bay
Blue curtains, view of palms and rain
Love never breathed in this place
I know I’m going to leave
How many nights can I lay here?
With someone who means nothing
When will I fall awake?
And slip down the hallway
Make it to the ocean spray
Will I ever
Leave him in Rose Bay
Each day, in the dawn light
I put my dress on, stained with last night
The sun settles, makes beads on my skin
Then recedes and I'm back again
But how many nights will I lay here?
Letting sleep creep away
When will I fall awake?
And slip down the hallway
Make it to the ocean spray
Will I ever
Leave him
I'll leave him
I'll leave him in Rose Bay

Marble Eyes
03:00
|

Born near the white cliffs
Dark-haired seductress
Where the cold wind blows
Where the black snakes moan
Drowning in her red dress
Glove of bones at her pale wrist
From a distance, I’ve watched her
Enthralled by her power
Green marble eyes take over me
Green marble eyes watch her
Have I forgot my own worth?
Cutting locks and turning leaves
I try to measure what she is
My own body has lost its form
No sun rose to wake up for
Green marble eyes take over me
Green marble eyes watch her
Til I forget my own worth
Green marble eyes take over me
Green marble eyes watch her
Til I forget my own worth
I just wanted to be worth as much as she
I just wanted to be
To be...

Seeds
03:50
|

Down a trail of tears
I'm drawn to you
I can feel you stirring
And you don't know
Each move hurts us both
I can't do a thing
I keep trying
I sow my small seeds in the ground
Too scared to talk this all out
I sow my seeds
Deep in the night
I hear your breathing
See the pulse of your skin in the light
I'll have to build walls
To keep in the pain
I can't stand to see all your suffering
If I'm going to stay, then I need a space
To be separated
I sow my small seeds in the ground
Too scared to talk this all out
I see what you do to yourself
I wait and I wait and I wait
For you
I know I can help you if you will help yourself
I sow my small seeds in the ground
Too scared to talk this all out
I see what you do to yourself
All I can do is sow my seeds
