Disappear 02:44
When we were walking, side by side I told you that I was a ghost and you wanted proof So I said, "Watch me, I'll disappear" I told you, "Darling, don’t you fear" I’ve been walking the world for some time Searching for a sliver of daylight That I could call my home And when I looked into your bright eyes I saw my reflection for the first time You said to me, “Hello” Ever since I asked you for your name You've been written on my heart Oh darling, darling We two ghosts were meant to be Because we see eachother straight in the heart, don’t we I’ve been walking the world for some time Searching for a sliver of daylight That I could call my home And when I looked into your bright eyes I saw my reflection for the first time You said to me, “Hello” You told me I couldn’t be a ghost anymore You wanted flesh, you wanted bone, you wanted every piece of me When I said, "No" You said, "My dear, Then it’d better for us both if you disappear" I’ve been walking the world for sometime (You wanted flesh) Searching for a sliver of daylight (You wanted bone) That I could call my home (You wanted every piece of) And when I looked into your bright eyes (You think it's best) You saw my reflection but you didn't like me (I'll leave you lone) Quite for how I was So goodbye

Secrets Back 03:40
I know I ended it And I’m not really in the place To make demands But I need everything back No, I don’t care about the bracelets, the pens The magazines I left But it is too much to ask I want all my secrets back Every last one Yea, every last one So would you mind if I just took your memories Bottled them up And threw them to the sea Just the ones of me And would you come on over one last time Whisper in my ear Return each secret one by one Until they're safely back where they belong There was a time When we were practically kindred spirits But we’re far, so far from that now And it feels rather strange Cause you knew me so well, you knew everything But oh, oh how much I’ve changed It doesn’t match up, no We don't match up like we used to So would you mind if I just took your memories Bottled them up And threw them to the sea Just the ones of me And would you come on over one last time Whisper in my ear Return each secret one by one Until they're safely back where they belong I swear this is the last you'll hear from me, Darling I told you I was unpredictable from the start My brain doesn't get along with my heart So would you mind if I just took your memories Bottled them up And threw them to the sea Just the ones of little old me And would you come on over one last time Whisper in my ear Return each secret one by one Until they're safely back where they belong

Dear humans of planet earth Hello, we come in peace We’ve heard of your troubles there So we thought we take our UFO And come over See what the fuss all about We were wondering what the trouble is If we were you humans there We’d never have a single complaint Can you picture yourselves wandering round On a desolate plane Shrouded in pink, pink clouds and total quiet Every day How can you quarrel and fight Over money and other such meaningless things Freshwater springs and the autumn breeze What more could you possibly need Did you know, you’ve got the nicest planet around We were wondering what the trouble seems to be If we were you humans there We’d never have a single complaint Can you picture yourselves wandering around In a silent place With no lights, electricity, or plants that grow Nothing but SOS calls from outer space Oh, you people Have the sun and the moon and the stars And it's so very lovely

Socked feet sliding On worn wooden grooves You're up with the crows Page turning Scribbling I wake to the smell of coffee And you The draft that comes in From under the front door Is our friend, Along with the rain dripping down Through cracks overhead We don't mind it Monday, Wednesday, Friday Green tea clouds and stories Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday Coffee chats and quilts And Sundays, we don't get up We stay in bed and dream It's winter

Your creaky boxspring, childhood bed You would safely rest your head Come back to this town Twenty years it hasn’t changed The grapevines and the porch step Are the same As when you were a child and you Had rose colored glasses on Where have they gone Your vision’s frigid blue The instrument you loved to play Down the cellar, whispers your name Come back to this house These fifty years have been inane The cross stitched clichés and your family’s Still the same As when you were a child and you Had rose colored glasses on Where have they gone Your vision’s frigid blue What would you give, god, anything To hear their singing, valleys ring Come back to the place Return to yourself You’re lost and your childhood’s been on the shelf For too long As when you were a child and you Had rose colored glasses on Where have they gone Your vision’s frigid blue
