Track Name: Polarized
There’s a slew of people that I’ve wanted to love
And against all odds I’ve tried to banish the thought
But I don’t feel like I help myself
When I let myself
Drag myself through fear and squalor
Digging deeper holes
As you compose your love notes from another world
Still blind to the dips and bends
The warped twisted ends
Of our once young love
So bold, worn thin, grown cold.

It was just a list of people that I’ve wanted to fuck
Tiny, dirty, creeping secrets kept locked in a book
I don’t feel like let myself
Ever help myself
To all the fantasies wrapped with liberties tied to adultery
Like finding solace in some other beds
Or never longing for the one we’ve shared
While turning callous toward the one we bared

Oh my lord—I think I’ve buried myself alive
I’m already gone.
Track Name: Denial Isle
Did you see someone you love; felt the past in your stomach and lonely from it?
Did you stick to what you know?
Was it even worth going there?

In the end it was nice to them dance,
it was nice to them dance,
it was nice to see them hold on hold on;
it was nice to see some faces, but consider this:
I’d just forgotten them.

(Oh whoa)
(Uh oh)
(Uh oh)

Did you see someone you love;
felt the past in your stomach,
and were too struck,
to turn away?

“I fell in love with Toni,
am I lonely?”
(I think) there comes a time when we sit around,
and we all break down--
if so you'll know alone
we’re so alone.

Did the cops take you away,
cause you said what you shouldn't say?

(Move on, do it!)

"I fell in love with Toni,
am I lonely?"
(I think) there comes a time when we sit around,
and we all break down--
if so you'll know alone
we’re so alone

Did you see someone you loved?
Fuck the past in your stomach if you're too stuck
to make a change.
Track Name: Ghost Bones [feat. Orca Orca]
I don’t know why, but I keep this secret--
searching late at night for someone to hear this note.

Secrets that I keep are my only weakness;
if I tell you why will you swear to let it go?

(Let it go)

Ghost tones left for lost bones.
Stunted growth, never grown;
spit shine never truly shown.
You’ve got your ghost bones grown from lost tones,
stunted home growth, never flown alone,
spit shine never truly shown.

I don’t know why, but the feeling’s fleeting--
searching late at night for someone to feel like home.

Secrets that I keep are my only weakness;
if I tell you why will you swear to leave it alone?

(Leave it alone)

Ghost tones left for lost bones.
Stunted growth, never grown;
spit shine never truly shown.
You’ve got your ghost bones grown from lost tones,
stunted home growth, never flown alone,
spit shine never truly shown.
Track Name: Runaway
Running away

Hey I don't want to go
down a windowsill!
"You can't always want to go
anywhere closer now..."

Anywhere I go and,
anywhere I take it--
anywhere you go
I'll be around to take your breath away.

Hey, you don't want to crawl
through my windowsill,
but you can't ever wish to get
anywhere closer now.

Anything you've wished for;
anything you've held tight;
anything you've learned to love
will one day turn it's back on you.

Running away

I've seen your ways, yeah,
well what you waiting for?
I've seen your waves, yeah,
and where you want to go.
