about

Written on the Isle of Man.

lyrics

I eat off the same plate twice and it's a science to keep one life separate from the next and to follow not into temptation. I eat off the same plate twice.

Board up your window pain and remain the same distant, lonesome, man of a thousand jokes some much too close to the bone house, I remain the same, I remain the same. Board up your windowpane.

In the attic, there's just another ceiling.
What I'm feeling...
I bury my bodies in the garden.
Moves like starlings.

Incomplete control, bus ticket origami folds, laid-back hands, and pneumonia toes. Just how do you feel? Mostly I'm so so, in complete control.

Board up your windowpane. Amongst the framed pictures of a history are the blurry shots of a cowering, mystery, person that I do not care for; the boxes have no name, the boxes have no name. Board up your windowpane.

Kill me and cut out my heart and it's an art helping work define, dismissing mistakes as fakes, tired all the time. Kill me and cut out my heart.

Board up your window pain and sustain a multitude of guises what is known is shown but behind the eye is being drowned, amused, and soothed by a friend of mine, by a friend of mine. Board up your windowpane.

In the attic, there's just another ceiling.
What I'm feeling...
I bury my bodies in the garden.
Moves like starlings.
