All Fall Down
Careful leaving
‘Cause you’re never more unsteady than when you’re alone
You sold all your bags and you boots and your chains
You’re ready to go and find yourself gone
You are not scared
To be incredible now
You are not ready
For all that you could
CHORUS
Split the light you’ll find the music
Split the light you’ll find the music escaping (x2)
Sooner or later we all fall down
It’s crazy to dream in cages
All off a sudden you hold out your hand
To find you are falling through space
With that same reckless smile on your face
As you’re tumbling down through the ages
CHORUS
Sooner or later we all fall down
And we dream we’re the last ones to go
Sooner or later we all fall down
And we dream we’re the last ones to go (x3)

Rag and Bone
For all the times I hurt you
Don’t want your forgiveness
For all the times I hurt you
Darling there was at least this
You were never alone,
You were never alone
I was alone
Pack up your dreams, stick ‘em inna cart,
I’m the rag and bone collector of hearts
Pack up your dreams, stick ‘em inna cart,
I’m the rag and bone collector of hearts
Pack up your dreams, stick ‘em inna cart,
I’m the rag and bone collector of hearts
Rag and bone, rag and bone, rag and bone.
For all the times I hurt you
Don’t want your forgiveness
For all the times I hurt you
Could’a been a sweet kiss
But you were never home,
You were never home
And I was alone
Pack up your dreams, stick ‘em inna cart,
I’m the rag and bone collector of hearts
Pack up your dreams, stick ‘em inna cart,
I’m the rag and bone collector of hearts
Pack up your dreams, stick ‘em inna cart,
I’m the rag and bone collector of hearts
Rag and bone, rag and bone, rag and bone.

Take off all Your Clothes
The place you know the best is caving in
The people that you see all look the same
Everybody comes and then they leave
Yet you’re still around
With your feet wedged in the ground
An old man taught you everything you know
A terrapin whose kingdom turned to stone
Everybody wants to know you, you know
You take off all your clothes
And stand out in the rain
You found it was a new sensation
Never going back again
And you run to…
Bababada
You find the girl who stands outside her door
She pulls her dress and begs you to come close
I would like to know you so she says
You tell her that you’re cold
And that you’re heart is old
She tells you, you are making no sense
And takes off all her clothes
And you both run…
Bababada
You’re tearing down the sky
Never felt so high
Holding hands and getting nowhere, getting nowhere, getting nowhere
Bababada

Not Yet
I don’t know how long, we have run.
I only know that since we’ve begun.
I’ve come to love you, more than my life.
I’ve come to love you, more than my wife.
So survive.
So survive.
So you think that you’re the one, you’ve got your loaded gun, but not yet.
You think your work is done, you think your race is run, but not yet.
There’s a task upon the table, a rhythm to be run.
There’s a task upon the table, but now…. Hun'
It’s nothing you’ve not done before.
I’m asking you to give, I’m asking you to live, just one more day
I’m begging you to breathe, I’m begging please don’t leave, just one more day.
I hate you, I hear you say.
Well I love you, just not this way.
Baby hurt me all you need.

Ook, ook, ook
Say it fast, say it whispery and menacing
Say it as slow as you can.
Your weary ear
needs a rest. Everybody clangs so hard.

Go make potions in the back yard. Put some silence in your tunes. Slow them down. Let them breathe. They’ll thank you, and then fly away from you, smiling
