"Ice Machines" lyrics
"Ice Machines"
Cartoons from a television
Whistles from the street
Blackout curtains, summer sirens
Electricity
I don't need ice machines
I don't need speaker systems
I don't need white lights blinking
I don't need you to witness
I don't need your forgiveness
I don't need anything
Finally start to make connections
When everything goes dark
It's pulling me in all directions
It's tearing you apart
I don't need ice machines
I don't need speaker systems
I don't need white lights blinking
I don't need you to witness
I don't need your forgiveness
I don't need anything
But I do
What am I doing watching clocks?
Space is too empty, this room's too hot
What am I doing wandering halls?
Ringing doorbells, pounding walls
I don't know what to say to people
It only makes things worse
It's time to take my silent treatment
This won't be the first
I don't need ice machines
I don't need speaker systems
I don't need white lights blinking
I don't need you to witness
I don't need your forgiveness
I don't need anything
But I do
What am I doing watching clocks?
Space is too empty, this room's too hot
What am I doing wandering halls?
Ringing doorbells, pounding walls
A rock that fell from orbit, I
Roll across the carpet, under
Frozen flowers on the walls
Leaning on my shoulders
What am I doing watching clocks?
Space is too empty, this room's too hot
What am I doing wandering halls?
Ringing doorbells, pounding walls
What am I doing watching clocks?
Space is too empty, this room's too hot
What am I doing wandering halls?
Ringing doorbells, pounding walls

Fleet Foxes - "Your Protector" She left a week to roam
Your protector's coming home
Keep your secrets with you, girl
Safe from the outside world
You walk along the stream
Your head caught in a waking dream
Your protector's coming...
The Decemberists - "Lake Song" Down by the lake
We were overturning pebbles
And upending all the animals alight
And I took a drag
From your cigarette and pinched it
'Tween my finger and my thumb
Till it died
And the sun burned low...
Vampire Weekend - "Ya Hey" Oh, sweet thing
Zion doesn't love You
And Babylon don't love You
But You love everything
Oh, You saint
America don't love You
So I could never love You
In spite of everything
In the dark of this...
Big Red Machine - "Deep Green" (I will lay laid open... I will lay laid open
I do it 'cause I'm a family man)
Well, I met her at a hard grave
A heatwave, handshake way
But the Carmex stayed
Come back, do not answer the door
Oh,...
Other Lives - "Tamer Animals" Solitary motion in the wake of an avalanche
Deer in the headlights, there goes a weaker one
He's listenin' in the fast gaze, I don't care now to see the way
Do you hear the silence? I was far too...
