"White Fire" lyrics
"White Fire"
Everything is tragic
It all just falls apart
But when I look into your eyes
It pieces up my heart
If I only had an answer
To put it all to bed
I wish sometimes I could take back
Every word I've said
I walk back in the night alone
Got caught up in my song
Forgot where I was sleeping
None of the lights were on
I heard my mother thinking me right back into my birth
I laughed so loud inside myself it all began to hurt
So I turned on a picture show
I disappeared the lines
As memories came flooding in
The tears blew out my eyes
I see an elevator
A moment I am above
I look for you or someone
Who can still remind me of
The tight grip and the sun lick
And the calm way of all things summer
When it's all here
And it's all new
And you're not hungover
Fierce and light and young
Fierce and light and young
When you don't know that you're wrong
Or just how wrong you are
My feet are always heavy
As I inch toward the door
I thought we'd leave this for ourselves a hundred times before
But I guess we're always leaving even when we look the same
And it eases me somehow to know that even this will change
If you've still got some light in you then go before it's gone
Burn your fire for no witness it's the only way it's done
Fierce and light and young
Fierce and light and young
Hit the ground and run
Hit the ground and run

The Weather Station - "Don't Understand" I slept on the couches of other people's houses
Overwhelmed, I'd borrow their sheets
I went through their records. They had piles of bills and letters
All these photographs of people I'd never meet...
Hand Habits - "placeholder" Last time that I saw you
Both hands in the dirt
Asking for a photograph
A picture you did not deserve
Oh, but I was just a placeholder
A lesson to be learned
Oh, I was just a placeholder

Pushing the limit
I'm gonna read it
As they told it
Gonna make my own
Put it on a disc
Living the classics
I'd like to try it
And know that I've done well
Grab hold of my future...

Ever so weary
Holes in her patience
Tattered and flapping
And it seems there's no end
'Cause the window is closed
And they're buried in
And nobody knows
