And the heart is hard to translate,
It has a language of it's own,
It talks in tongues and quiet sighs
And prayers and proclamations,
In the grand days of great men
And the smallest of gestures,
In short shallow gasps.
But with all my education,
I can't seem to command it,
All This And Heaven Too

All alone,
It was always there you see.
And even on my own,
It was always standing next to me.
I can see it coming from the edge of the room.
Creeping in the streetlight.
Holding my hand in the pale gloom.
Can you see it coming now?
Breaking Down

(Yeah, yeah x 6)
Oh, the river, oh, the river, it's running free,
And I'll join in the joy it brings to me
But I know it'll have to drown me,
Before I can breathe easy,
And I've seen it in the flights of birds, I've seen it in you,
The entrails of the animals, the blood running through,
But in order to get to the heart, I think sometimes you have to cut through,
But you can

I'm gonna be released from behind these lies
And I don't care whether I live or die
And I'm losing blood, I'm gonna leave my bones
And I don't want your heart, it leaves me cold
I don't want your future
I don't need your past
One bright moment is all I ask
I'm gonna leave my body (moving up to higher ground)
Leave My Body

I've been losing sleep,
I've been keeping myself awake,
I've been wandering the streets,
For days and days and days,
Oh if I'm row to row,
Back to back,
Lover to lover,
And black to red,
Lover To Lover

[Florence]
You are the hole in my head
You are the space in my bed
You are the silence in between
What I thought and what I said
You are the night time fear
You are the morning when it's clear
When it's over, you will start
You're my head, you're my heart
No Light No Light

And I had a dream
About my old school
And she was there all pink and gold and glittering
I threw my arms around her legs
Came to weeping
(Came to weeping)
Came to weeping
(Came to weeping)
Then I heard your voice as clear as day,
Only If For The Night

I was born in a big gray cloud
Screaming out a love song
All the broken chords and unnamed cries
What a place to come from
I wish to remain nameless
And live without shame
'Cause what's in a name, Oh
I still remain the same
Remain Nameless

Holy water cannot help you now
A thousand armies couldn't keep me out
I don't want your money
I don't want your crown
See I've come to burn
Your kingdom down
Holy water cannot help you now
See I've come to burn your kingdom down
And no rivers and no lakes, can put the fire out
Seven Devils

Regrets collect like old friends
Here to relive your darkest moments
I can see no way, I can see no way
And all of the ghouls come out to play
And every demon wants his pound of flesh
But I like to keep some things to myself
I like to keep my issues strong
It's always darkest before the dawn
Shake It Out

When we first came here,
We were cold and we were clear,
With no colours on our skin,
We were light and paper-thin.
And when we first came here,
We were cold and we were clear,
With no colours on our skin,
'Till you let the spectrum in.
Spectrum

Time it took us
To where the water was
That's what the water gave me
And time goes quicker
Between the two of us
Oh, my love, don't forsake me
Take what the water gave me
Lay me down
Let the only sound
What The Water Gave Me
