I resume the oath in the never-through valley, west to martyr, the modern rune run-in I was in a mess certain miles astray, commoner erasure due to folly cold, on a resolute woe, tell me what the sleet do when it melts now that i'm learning, balm us in the resin to pardon I I was in the rain, to follow this whim, with elders of a worn-out sign I was sold the warren for a slight too wired how to love alone, gets us through limelight, I was honoured to bountiful twilight I was under lull of gratitude, hear me, I'm a sort dirty Philemon could free it's something very sovereign, with the law of lay carved in town. Little me, cardigan... there's one mother's arm outmanned, there's some rote for a two-bit stride a loll about lies, they duped it... it wasn't right, visceral timeline, say.. I do believe i'm outta rays... says the sun, of his wik and we roll in a well so he didn't know, i'm a rotten thug, sitting by my ruddy ends puzzled, until someone decodes, oh-oh-oh whoa-oh, muscle down the cold as of this, well it's so dramatic, now when we lose the first son of Luddite any Moses whose turn is to write...anathema of how we'll slack some low, low vapour... low is vapour... he says he never knows about it....and I know he never really wants to know... he sings a prayer in the eye, they solemn find him, albeit adopted ...beyond fairweather a leather rope with knot long loading, let it run all the rope never let it go. In your mind... out of luck, like a bootlick-matic, where to go, where to go not many know, oh no, oh no arrested, love was on a bloody tether there where way down, there he waits was annulled by the sunspot's sully, and annoyed by the soundscape's letter, oh... oh... we'll make our song, oh ambivalence it's in that forest, that scroll; I was in love

unlike last year, tomb-like rutters a calmer wind blew away all of the lotteries won if someone dare defy you eyes wide and whole, pretty whites turning their yokes to a fire so Hadean saw a way out, copper road any way the lemmings doubt me, doubt him a sullen work, in morrow, saw the spade, to a grave I wouldn't speak to fall there backwards war wears on to denouement ever make the maths of it? tesseract my own, to form again oh-whoa soil, waste, where had a home ever a nod to, to sing like a wafer-thin valedictorian here hear my life hear my fight

I had dreamed to join all the army's honour and machos but way too late I prayed that prayer an officer said to me, figure it out, what wall against to stand I resented so many wars, I wrote to delight the hand I wrote in freedom never to find, the law behind the scenes I row a precious little boat, row, they said row row to find, row to the light, early bright day waterfight, all to the right, waterfight tomorrow Oh, oh Oh, oh gladly I degraded and cradled my rent for it was that, the lease in the mind courage, mateship, hope and I'd caress the mess I'd made, around in search of you and for my relatives I connive rhyme to recall laid, down, warm by the fire the men on the hill, credit

odds divide, too with the sky along in the rain, owing this colour old wattle-dew, long live the fume wherefore our home at a shofar, bring it on missive made its sender, broiling in wine turning out guile where it wrings up our wormwood and violent fame I'm alright today I fold away white flags and in the rain, I sang oh and alike, the foreign beret delay the slow attempt of one to break the bones of the wits of you oh disgrace, instant disgrace, instant disgrace oh, oh, oh yeah yeah oh-oh

Claire, Lonely 03:36
lyrics

Gaia and Poseidon ever earth and sea soeur et un frère, was all that I had prayed to be, with you, forever classified until we die, oh, so unaware is I all that I would hoard the same words, meaning gone and she remains, alone at attention, I stay, only the lost feelings floated away, further down elsewhere from my.... (head) what was it like? Every time you watched me fade away oh, oh, oh, to you what was it like? every hope to hold in our hands, lost kids you and I Earth sings to the tide its friend hidden in my stare a hundred yards unfold less and less to find in our strange affair in heaven only, only in a sea of cameos drowns a brave heart unfrozen to her but praising the dame's only the fool, that bled an evening, damned and drained of thought oh every time I'd always dreamed you'd be here

Queen Of Swords 03:37
lyrics

broken I am, helpless, forever so pretty she, she's colder than you never love anyone else, sorry for dumb me! I fall on my sword, for she who is bored so beautiful, the sight, all day long lulling tunes, evermore and then we meet, sparklers boil over you in whom I believe so not unlike all your lovers oh, wonderful friend, beautiful Australian girl I am, a civilian, alone in my years I had thought to feel the light petal copper against cotton on your chest, a medal and when I die, receive my guitar but I promise I'll never die queen of swords, sovereign ruling Disney daydreams, mine knight of cups, restless remembering rhymes so far away, fortunes unfold in fear never impressed, is she with my awkward, wobbling heart to her yes, amazing it is to pretend confidence to a goddess so pretty, my friend one day I'll be good enough

Charles Becomes King 03:18
lyrics
download
sweetly she sang, as she laid down to rest rosaries, rites to receive god give to laws, the brand new King all of the years I'd wait to send word of how reckoned men and all the ladies the same a fabled land could end all of the lord's wars, holy the prince laid his armour for all of history to know his heart moonlight, blue-black black dreams to honour red or white, blue or black the sun is only yellow I knelt down again, alone in Oz to serve before the sword went down to find the shoulder of a child still wed to war from Afghanistan to Ukraine so swear my oath to fight for life sunset in Australia true in breadth and hue our star it sinks like in our throats the passing of the Queen lay down all of your arms to beat the drum the sight to see, from far, I came to fly the flag aside sea against rolling roar, from Wentworth to Rudd we all go to our deaths, first she.
