somewhere, feel like i'm going nowhere
all i got is this stupid chair
the sunshine's on time today
your clock winds the right way
faded waiting for the weekend
for the time to sleep in
i'm looking at you up down looking at you right now
please don't tell me!
two lines stretched across my forehead
etched across my big bed
circles underneath my eyeballs
darker than the mind falls
wasted waiting for the weekend
for the time to sleep in
i'm looking at you up down looking at you right now
please don't tell me!
i don't want to feel anything at all
(lyrics by hava horowitz and martha schnee)

coward

i only want you when you don't want me
you only want me when i don't want you
i made you call yourself a coward
i made a shrine of dead flowers
i made you call yourself a liar
oh...
i'm so tired!
when i come you go when i go you come
when i rage i run when i'm brave you run
it's a secret underlayer 'til your breath's all out
(lyrics by martha schnee)

atonement
03:41
|

|
speak softly when nobody's home
being with you is like being alone
clicking tongues and silence in the sun
i finally hear it now i'm on my own
dusty weather flea market debris
when there’s no fire there’s no light i can’t see
baby
i've got a lot i want to say
it's hard to write
it's hard to find the way
the way up there
can you hear me up these flights of stairs
help me reach myself on the high shelf
five foot six standing with two hands
tiny room tucked away above the stairs
i hear the sigh i leave a trace i feel the hairs
grab the ladder lean it on the wall
rung by rung don't look down you might fall
(lyrics by hava horowitz)

soft spy body release
body incomplete
blood rich resolution
blood rich red rich day one

show me your face
03:32
|

sorry
i’ve forgotten your name already
it’s 8 am
that feeling when you wake up in reality
where are we?
two naked strangers holding each other tightly
but don't freak out
this mask stays on so i cover up my mouth
show me your
show me your face
i'll show you mine
if you show me your
sorry
for arriving late into my body
what’s the rush?
lipstick smile, eyebrows drawn, cheeks coated with blush
and who am i
caught between urges and my deeper desires
see right through
your flesh to a place I wish i knew
show me your
show me your face
i'll show you mine
if you show me your
(lyrics by hava horowitz)

instinct
03:03
|

do i need a reason
is it such a crime
must i set an example of you or will you stop wasting my time
in your favorite sweater
that ended up in the lost and found
i walked through the door when i when i should have turned around
i've got an instinct
an instinct to play dead
i've got an instinct to stare at the clouds in my head
in my empty bed playing dead
i've got an instinct to play dead
i've got an instinct to stare at the clouds in my head in my empty bed playing dead
do i need an escape route
searching for the exit sign
must i craft a whole fuckin plan or will you let me make up my mind
in your furnished basement
with the cool concrete walls
i lost track of time laying facedown faceup on the floor
i've got an instinct
an instinct to play dead
i've got an instinct to stare at the clouds in my head
in my empty bed playing dead
i've got an instinct to play dead
i've got an instinct to stare at the clouds in my head in my empty bed playing dead
(lyrics by hava horowitz)

i got a little itty bitty pretty pebble and i wanna give it to...
i got a little itty bitty pretty pebble and it's stuck under my...
there's a space
between our faces
there's a tension right here it separates us
feels like rock sedimentary
molten lava rock bottom possibility
rock bottom's just a pebble
underneath my toes
give the people you live a hug and a kiss
a little cheek little hair whatever i don't care
i got this little itty bitty pretty pebble and i wanna give it to...
i got this little itty bitty pretty pebble and it's stuck under my...
where is it (here)
do you have it (there)
nothing feels better (nothing feels better)
pebble in my shoe (pebble in my shoe)
i got this little itty bitty pretty pebble and i wanna give it to...
i got this little itty bitty pretty pebble and it's stuck all in my...
what if i
got to know ya
got to look into your eyeball coulda toldja
nothing's wrong with being alive
and when you look into someone else's eyes
you can only look at one eye at a time
so what eye are you going to choose
what eye are you going to choose
are you going to look at the left ojo
or the right ojo
i don't know i don't know but i really wanna know
i got this little little itty bitty pebble and i wanna give it to...
i got a pretty little itty bitty pebble and it's stuck all in my
head
