Somewhere in South End when you were fun You took my hand and you made me run Up past the prison to the seafront You climbed the cliff edge and took the plunge Why can't we laugh now like we did then? How come I see you and ache instead? How come you only look pleased in bed? Let's climb the cliff edge and jump again Read more: Glass Animals - Pork Soda Lyrics | MetroLyrics

Pork Soda - Glass Animals
I know my words will dry upon the skin Just like a name I remember hearing Wild winter, warm coffee Mom's gone, do you love me? Blazing summer, cold coffee

Coffee - Sylvan Esso
What's the immaterial substance That envelopes two, That one perceives as hunger And the other as food. I wake in tangled covers, To a sash of snow, You dream in a cartoon garden, I could never know. Innocent imitation, you are cast in gold, Your image a compensation for me to hold. Parallel lines, move so fast, Toward the same point, Infinity is as near as it is far

Parallel Lines - Kings of Convenience
Your prettiness is seeping through Out from the dress I took from you So pretty And my emptiness is swollen shut Always a wretch - I have become So empty And please, please don't leave me I'm watching Naomi, full bloom I'm hoping she will soon explode Into one billion tastes and tunes One billion angels come and hold her down They could hold her down until she shines I'm tasting Naomi's perfume *It tastes like **** and I must say* She comes and goes most afternoons One billion lovers wave and love her now They could love her now and so could I There is no Naomi in view She walks through Cambridge stocks and strolls And if she only really knew One billion angels could come and save her soul They could save her soul until she shines So pretty And please, please don't leave me here.

Naomi - Neutral Milk Hotel
Mama loves a mask And if she’d only ask The questions right She’d know Mama loves a mask A girl inside a flask Smoldering sleepless nights Throwing crosses out the window He could never lie No he could only make me true But they won’t understand the colors Inside the brilliant mind that I call you So please lay low, just smile Play the game for now, beguile Duplicitous and all the while She loves me so Mama loves a fairytale The girl who’d never sin Taking sips of ginger ale Instead of shots of gin Mama loves a fairytale And once I loved her too I never knew that when I’d think I’d lose my mind and start to sink And as I learned I grew Out of the mask you made for me You’ll love me someday soon

Mama Loves a Mask
The sweetest sigh my breezy vow To indicate the ways you love me how Did the hours pass before us While the waking world ignores us Crumple up the faded sheets again Let’s spend All our income on the nights We whispered soft in broken lights And broken bottles don’t stand a chance Baby dance

Something like Waves
Oh the mind is too stubborn to let the heart go It seems the less I believe, The more that I fear The things I don’t know Yet the chaos resolved Is less in my mind Than the people around The sight and the sound Of this beautiful life

Other People's Love
So does the rosy fire of the horizon fade into dull grey While the trees out by the parking lot get greener with the rain -Okkervil River

And I will take you and leave you alone Watching spirals of white softly flow over your eyelids and all you did will wait until the point when you let go -Neutral Milk Hotel

graphite on canvas I'm bent like this sheet the damage subsides Still the mark is complete go **** what you find in secrets behind the labyrinth of all that is sweet
