Monster 03:37
Beings of air, guardians of east, breath of transformation I invoke thee Beings of fire, guardians of south, spark of creation I invoke thee Beings of water, guardians of west, rain of inspiration I invoke thee Beings of earth, guardians of north, soil of foundation I invoke thee

Anthem PT 2 07:29
I want to break you To tear apart your fortress with fires and guns blazing To find you all bare and brazen, all wild-eyed and glory bound And then I'll... I want to take you to my bed Watch the sun rise against the horizons of your eyes And if you'll allow I'll wake up real early and we can smoke weed in the morning And then I'll... Sending a picture is like saying hello and despite the technology I'll rip out my phone I want to map out your constellations, draw my lines between every freckle and star Will your beauty mark me if I kiss you completely? Will my head swim when you... Sending a picture is like saying hello and despite the technology I'll rip out my phone

Do you want this? I will nail my heart to your door. Tell me it's not still, but beats light Oh, that light we possess that we throw when we sing. Do you want this? I will nail my heart to your door. Baby and me, in a tree, L-O-N-G-I-N-G when we say to them 'do you want this, do you want me, do you love us, do you want this?' Do you want this? I will nail my heart to your front door.

Invocation 03:45
Beings of air, guardians of east, breath of transformation I invoke thee Beings of fire, guardians of south, spark of creation I invoke thee Beings of water, guardians of west, rain of inspiration I invoke thee Beings of earth, guardians of north, soil of foundation I invoke thee

Lovely Laura Palmer, with your heart all skin and bone Took you from your shoe box home and left you all alone Where the owls aren't what they seem Lovely Laura Palmer, with your heart all open wide Lurking in the darkest night with a knife at your side Finding beauty in homicide Dropped her body in the sea Girl you know you're like me Lovely Laura Palmer, cross your heart and hope he dies Stick a needle in his eye and you laugh while he lies With your heart all open wide Dropped her body in the sea Girl you know you're like me Girl you know you're like me Cyanide when you breathe Wrapped in plastic by the sea Fire, walk with me Girl you know you're like me Lovely Laura Palmer...

Wiggle my too long fingers until they crack Grab the microphone in my own damn hands And I breathe when you breathe We drank, we danced, your body whispered secrets, baby You never let on and I never said it and everything was beautiful, I guess I have written the words between her lips and my lips I have pounded out the perverted percussion of her hips and my hips And I breathe when you breathe Say something damning, damn it. We drank, we danced, your body whispered secrets, baby You never let on and I never said it and everything was beautiful, I guess You fools, her hair smelled like flowers

We run in circles with a pocket full of posies We dance under the full moon There's a show tonight in Brementown Pull out my guitar, watch them all fall down No one can climb my hair I'd sooner cut it off I'll figure out my own way down You'll never see me eating ugly poisoned fruit When I wake believe I only ask for truth So what do you want me to say? I'll misquote your nursery rhymes anyway Three times I remembered your name Stamp your foot in the ground and dig your own grave All the King's horses and all the King's men won't wall me darling I'm my own Prince Charming I've gone over the river and through the dark and haunted wood To find some blonde bitch in my bed She stuttered 'Oh my what big teeth you have' Her last words heard 'Off with her head' So what do you want me to say? I'll misquote your nursery rhymes anyway Three times I remembered your name Stamp your foot in the ground and dig your own grave So what do you want me to say? This isn't your nursery rhyme anyway Three times I remembered your name Stamp your foot in the ground and dig your own grave All the King's horses and all the King's men are dead

I've laid in her pastures and gone through the motions Accepted distractions to hide my devotion Felt bits of forever inside of her oceans Spun three times in her moonlight Spun me around three times She is coming down I can feel her now Cast a circle out I just want to find her Lost in a forever forest Painting portraits of myself so delicate and tragic Leaving flowers on the graves of my past selves I will walk forever, all alone adorned with wishes And all adorned right past their missions My eyes ache in need of vision My bones break in need of fission Got Gaia, Diana, Rhiannon on speed dial Call them up for wisdom, to talk for awhile Brought them in my circle when I was a child Spun three times in their moonlight Spun me around three times She is coming down I can feel her now Cast a circle out I just want to find her Lost in a forever forest Painting portraits of myself so delicate and tragic Leaving flowers on the graves of my past selves I will walk forever, all alone adorned with wishes And all adorned right past their missions My eyes ache in need of vision My bones break in need of fission Spun me around three times...
