Ooze Leather 03:40
lyrics
I feel it less and less each time I’m staring at the sun i used to know what’s mine was mine but now I'm not so sure You know i need it, now more than ever Don’t think i’ll leave it, my ooze leather My ooze leather You know i need it My ooze leather Wait -- don’t walk away Close to where I live, you watch me shed my skin and become the wind I see it less and less each time I’m staring at the stars Burning fires in open pits, good friends in old backyards You know i feel it, it’s now or never Don’t think I’ll leave it, my ooze leather Wait -- don’t walk away I’m feeling pretty mixed up but i think i can change Close to where I live you watch me shed my skin and become the wind Yeah, close to where I live you watch me shed my skin and become the wind

Vegas Nerve 02:15
lyrics
My sweat keeps flowing through these blocked pores Slack jawed mouth don’t form the words no more Tap the brakes and lean into the swerve I’d bet it all on my vagus nerve Sentiment is just the failure of feeling I got the feeling I’ve been here before Back to bed if I’m not fishing I’m reeling I bet it all on my vagus nerve I’m on fire I need the heat, don’t put me out Always blocked by these locked doors Slack jawed mouth can’t form the words no more Lost perspective seen just past the curve I’d bet it all but I’m on fire I need the heat, can’t put me out It’s too much! I feel the heat im burning up It’s too much! I feel the heat I’m on fire I need the heat I'm on fire I feel the heat, can’t put me out

Age of Reason 01:48
lyrics
I’ve been holding on to letters which have lost all meaning I’ve been keeping time in corners of old stuccoed ceilings I hold out hope against all hope for a brand new season It’s been two hundred years or more since the age of reason You're starting up things that I been tryin to end! I don’t wanna see your face ‘round here again! I’ve been under stating contemplating your reaction I’ve no defense against this genuine dissatisfaction You're starting up things that I been tryin to end! I don’t wanna see your face ‘round here again! You're just starting up things that I been trying... And when I think I’ve let go, I know I should let it all go

Sleep When You're Dead 03:22
lyrics
I don’t mind sharing my grave, the headstone can just say your name, but, they’ll bury me standing tall I lay through life, I’d lie through it all I don’t mind sharing my home My doors are open you can come and go But if you need sleep, come back to my tomb I’ll make sure I always leave room You’ll sleep when you’re dead, my dad said Get out of your head You’ll sleep when you’re dead, my dad said I don’t mind sharing my grave I’ll respect your personal space But if you wake, leave me in the ground When I’m up I’m up, when I’m down I’m down You’ll sleep when you’re dead, my dad said Get out of your head You’ll sleep when you’re dead, my dad said Don’t bring your dread to bed You get that stupid shit right out of your head You can stay with me Let’s be free and dance I don’t mind sharing my grave, the headstone can just say your name, but, they’ll bury me standing tall I lay through life, I’d lie through it all You’ll sleep when you’re dead, my dad said Get out of your head You’ll sleep when you’re dead, my dad said Don’t bring your dread to bed Just take that stupid shit right out of your head You can stay with me Let’s be free and dance like ghosts in the sheets

Crane Girl / Hot Coals 03:11
lyrics
There’s nothing left to see in this stupid town So she climbed a crane and wouldn’t come down Oh this old place? There’s nothing left to do Let’s go inside to see those memes of that chair you threw I’m tired man There’s no emergency Don’t wake me up i find it hard to get back to sleep Boom boom Boom boom Oh Crane Girl! Boom boom There’s nothing left to eat til we eat ourselves Always go with the flow when the ocean swells Now hurry up! No one’s waiting on you When she climbed the crane, she had the city’s best view Uh oh! My money’s getting low! I know I need just to keep it to myself Uh oh! I’m living past my means! No point in living if you’re not living out your dreams Oh Crane Girl! Hot coals Oh rake me over What do we owe her Oh how’re we gonna pay? Parkdale I’ll repeat myself What do I owe now Oh how’re we gonna pay? Yeah, how’re we gonna pay? Yeah, how're we gonna pay?
