Disciple Fix 04:24
she decidedly stands where the water meets sand with a slight of the hand, she changes the path that we take we decided to stay where the land meets the sky and we wrestle, with wonder, the unbridled boundaries of flight and we within keeping ourselves in this light do stretch up to bless all the pieces controlling the tides our feet in the foreground; the time in our minds all nestled in warmth of the sunlight thats making us blind while feeding the fables to the ones that we know the grounds broken up, and the crops are refusing to grow the seas swelling upward, reflects in the seams imperial sights our kind turn to soft spoken screams (they say) oh, bottle fed babies of endless expansion and light come down from that house on the hill and be gifted with sight the tide's on the rise and i'll soon go below with the slight of my hand, will show you the right way to go

Slack Tide 06:42
why didn't you start a fire to make their feet move put their hands in the cool cool water make white walls grow oh you so tame with fair skin put your face in the burning fire learn from it of course I budged oh hear the noise cut where new air blew and did the winds warn where we stood of course we budged when we pushed our backs into a wall of water washing over lost the line of sight that lead us to the clear and open ocean of course I budged
3.
let the bath turn the water black it'll loosen up our scabs as the light hangs a little lower we both let our eyes roll back this is how we use the cleansing hour this is how we realign our power as the light hangs even lower still bound deep our teeth are chattering i've gone under i've gone under the water
4.
Agile Limbs 04:31
there there my son you've a worried brow and mine is plastered down and my stance seems so strong I'll stand above I'll shake your ground but my feet, I've found are agile limbs there there my arms they're plastered down but through these locks you'll move my son because you'll never love this town so please let our arms free let our arms breathe
5.
to lose you of loose minds in spite in time so we combine as our eyes roll back we seek these our brains combat your genes we are young we've fucked you in the backs of our cars go far see me high rollin' studying the bottoms of your feet what have you known have you grown will you watch my eyes roll back into the bottom of the sun it's in the bottom of the sun you could take me all the way
6.
Holy Father 04:30
we are now we dry our eyes we push our souls right through our spines as we go I can make the trees fall down to your knees make all the leaves lie down to appease you and when your blood leaks we'll give you ours mountain man with mountain hands crops that grow right from your chest oh we in the likes of you burn pine oh burn these arms of mine
7.
Half a House 05:01
I'm the girl with half my heart I'm the girl with half my house let me cook for you let me make you mine all things made by my hands now hold only half my plans and I will share with you [what I have shared with] very few I'm the girl with just a part I'm the one without my spouse and how I shook for you when you asked me about these things I've got my hollow steps from room to room following your old perfume raining dust falling faster muscles tighten too because these things have all sculpted my [face] my heart it lives in the space where we said it'd be best if we could split our love into two daylight taps on my side mornings with great divide did you know widowed hearts could sometimes still beat for two these things have all stripped me of my [grace] my heart it lives we said it'd be best if we could split our love
8.
we let the weight fall out of you you've given it to us and we know the cleanest air falls from your body give it all given it all give it up these days of our woven woes and our chests have all but broke we waft the cosmos to cope and honest hands they hold our throats the way we're keeping our time we held in buildings wrapped up tight we've been sleeping through a loud light and new lines what could what might feel these things move around you in time we will come and join you we will wash you all is waiting this is for you you are nothing and we want to let it capture you are waiting you are golden come together give it all in give it all up we are waiting
