[Intro] ...small feet click like typewriter keys... your nose is wetter than my eyes today — good. [Verse] i named you after her first stuffed animal not her real name (i couldn’t) you dragged my slipper to the stove so i cooked again for two [Pre-Chorus] ^ do you see her, little one? ^ when you stare at the corners, do you oh. [Chorus] – where were you when they took your pillow? – – when the room went quiet before you left? – i threw your morphine in the trash kissed your name off the bottle do you think she hears us this is how she hears us! do you think she hears us!!! [Verse] you sleep like she used to bent like a noodle drool on the pillow i told her to leave me a sign you are so bad at stairs but you keep trying [Interlude] she always left the house lights on maybe she left you too – i pulled out her hair from the vacuum filter – – don’t think i don’t know how to hold her in dust – – don’t think i don’t know how to speak with no air – – don’t think i don’t— [Pre-Chorus] ^ do you see her, little one? ^ the air seems to shift when you press your nose to the rug does she ride you like a raft to me? does she? does she?! ...yeah. [Chorus] – where were you when the sink ran all night? – – I was going to remind you not to leave the light on – i cracked your cup rinsing out the silence read the label off your pills do you think she hears us this is how she hears us! do you think she hears us!!! [Verse] your bark is stupid and musical she would’ve laughed if that was still a sound she had [Outro] i’m not lonely if you’re here and she’s still listening.

[Intro] (Oooooh) (Oooooh) (Oooooh) [Verse 1] Pass the weight, pass the blame, pass the cup around the flame We were promised rain but we only got the heat Now the dust is in the lungs and the rot is on the tongues And the floorboards groan beneath our feet You sold the well, you sold the hill, you sold the air we breathe until The ledger was a pill that can't be swallowed anymore So we gather in the yard while the sky is turning hard And we’re locking every latch and every door. [Pre-Chorus] The wind is a thief and the water is a ghost We’re standing where the ground matters most (Standing where the ground matters most) [Chorus] Hold the line, hold the breath, hold the heart against the chest Let the thunder try to tear the world apart We’re the knot in the rope, we’re the stitch and the thread We’re the living and the debt-free dead We stand shoulder to shoulder. [Verse 2] There’s a shiver in the wood, there’s a silence where it stood And the map you drew is burning in a grate Every promise was a thin piece of skin upon the chin Of a man who never learned to carry weight Now the cloud is coming low with a heavy, heavy glow And the cattle are all huddling in the dark But we’re stitched into a wall, if one of us should fall Then we’re only gonna leave a deeper mark. [Pre-Chorus] The wind is a thief and the water is a ghost We’re standing where the ground matters most (Standing where the ground matters most) [Bridge] (One by one) (Two by two) (All for none) (None for you) The sky is coming down, let it crash upon the town The sky is coming down, let it crash upon the town The sky is coming down, let it crash upon the town (We are the storm) (We are the storm) [Chorus] Hold the line, hold the breath, hold the heart against the chest Let the thunder try to tear the world apart We’re the knot in the rope, we’re the stitch and the thread We’re the living and the debt-free dead We stand shoulder to shoulder. [Outro] Shoulder to shoulder. (Shoulder to shoulder) Shoulder to shoulder. (Shoulder to shoulder) The rain is coming. Let it wash it away. Done.

[Verse 1] All my life I’ve been running from the rain, Running from the thunder, running from the pain. All my life I’ve been calling out your name, Calling out to someone who never came. [Chorus][tick tock] But my lips still hum, hum, hum. Yeah my lips still hum, hum, hum. And the night still comes, comes, comes. The night still comes, comes, comes. Oh whoh oh whoh oh whoh I'm still alone I'm still alone [Verse 2] All my life I’ve been trying to believe, Turning over stones, checking under the leaves All my life trying to keep hold and to cleave, Hoping you'd remember, hoping you wont leave. [Chorus] AAAAAH! My lips still hum! hum! hum! Yeah my lips still hum! hum! hum! Ooooh! the night still comes, comes, comes. yeah the night still comes, comes, comes. Every light burns out all the same, all the same Every promise forgets all the same, all the same. Every prayer!!! I ever made!!! God was quiet!!!! All the same, all the same! all the same! all the same! [Chorus][tick tock] But my lips still hum, hum, hum. Yeah my lips still hum, hum, hum. And the night still comes, comes, comes. The night still comes, comes, comes. I'm still alone
