on a plateau 01:38
hear the kids go on a plateau hear the kids go where the seeds grow

this town is caught on love loss pills yeah we've got sadness and the thrills Daniel's into living fast and Lil would rather it all last pool hopping at 3am bike rides and adrenaline can't do enough discovering before the cold wind settles, settles in a ghost from times that have gone by is swimming in the air tonight to crash a party she began when she returned to native land there's talk of keeping this alive despite retreating to our hives Magil wrote to say that she's in and Danny boy I know you've always been to think that all these lives collide you see how all these lives collide this town must have a secret side to think that all these lives collide

wear down our hands for strangers' plans we find a home can't call our own we're keeping our hearts somewhere they can glow we know this loving labour is gonna grow we're driving this rusty rig into the unknown to pound and strum and yell in a microphone we plant a seed follow its lead we can't stop here under the heat we lose a limb the hardest thing somehow we grow under the snow we're keeping our hearts somewhere they can glow we know this loving labour is gonna grow we're driving this rusty rig into the unknown to pound and strum and yell in a microphone

it's 8 am i'm in the drain escaping through the pipes and out to the lane sleepwalking through street of my youth my L.A. lights took me to new fleeting heights i float on through my brain i'm sheltered from the sane let's get carried away all of them fears buzz in my ears muzzle of bees that i shake off through the years you fed me words a fated plunge spoke to my heart now i know where i can start i float on through my brain i'm sheltered from the sane let's get carried away
5.
transatlantic passage making a new start with a clay and paper entrance she lay seeds in the park those seeds turned into saplings and never grew apart they're sitting around listening to your voice shaking hearts oh, you'll never fade away your voice is here to stay it's a soaring sound that's all around and it spreads like light it's a soaring sound that can't be bound and it fills up the night a brick sits in my ribcage like a womb for your light it weighs down like an anchor but it's nothing i can fight well jenny says she felt it it kept her up all night so we're sitting around listening to a voice that's oh so bright oh, you'll never fade away your voice is here to stay it's a soaring sound that's all around and it spreads like light it's a soaring sound that can't be bound and it fills up the night so many threads left hanging to be sewn into new songs

get by 04:34
bayin' at the moon bayin' at the moon bayin' like a moonlight hound there's a rustling in the wind a rustling in the wind and a restlessness without a sound the owner come along the tractor come along telling us we've got no rights our children born here seeds grown here and we leave without a fight now we've got to let this red earth slip away now we've got to let this red earth slip away from us but we'll get by we'll get by living on the road living on the road until the orchards come in sight mama seen the light papa seen the light and soon enough we'll see the light everything is sin everything is sin and the preacher says there is no sin so where do we begin where do we begin and where do we end? we'll get by don't you know that we'll get by

lost & found 03:45
burning hoops and broken hearts we've been jumping at things pretty hard we got lost and we got found pulled apart and better bound like wicker, wax, stars and suns at least you shine your light when it's on it pulled us out of the wreckage and reminded me my lover is a friend we got lost and we got found those words were cold as gasoline but they're the ones that came to me the wreckage brought on atrophy am i pulling you down with me? like wicker, wax, stars and suns at least you shine your light when it's on it pulled us out of the wreckage and reminded me my lover is a friend we got lost and we got found
