Springfield  

Walk into Springfield, walk through the gate
Stars on the ceiling, stars never fade
washing the walls, turning to dover white
Staring in space, trampling over
Stars on the spring field, they were my lovers
You're still a lover

I've been to Neptune, I've been to Earth
Dressing in neon, dressed like a nerd
Don't go to bed, I'm turning over
How could I sever? Howling for mother
I cut a rug, I was a lover
You're still a lover

All we have left, all we've uncovered
All of the dirt, olive in color
Whole lotta love, whole lotta squalor
This is for Esmé, she was a lover
You're still a lover

 

Teeth 

Step apart from it, wrap your head around it
Call your mother if you choose to
I'm not at all kidding, it's not at all cheating
If I am giving it all to you

All my weaknesses, I can promise them
But you already knew
I'm a catch, I'm so deep; I'm a trap, I've got teeth
But you already knew

What'd she say darling? Your old mum mumbling
"Life goes on honey, sugar, honey, honey"
Part your ways sister, part your lips, given
I am telling it all to you

All my weaknesses, I can promise them
But you already knew
I'm a catch, I'm so deep; I'm a trap, I've got teeth
But you already knew

 

North Coast

What's happening, Hosanna?
What's happening to me?
Cannot make up my mantra

I'd like to dive, jump off the side, or do a cannonball
All of my actions uninhibited just like my jaw
But when I'm walking by the water like a woman with you
I think it's fine to just pause--oh what of you

What's happening, Europa?
The northern coast wants to see
What's off the edge of our old home
I'm off of my heels but I just freeze

I'd like to dive, jump off the side, or do a cannonball
All of my actions uninhibited just like my jaw
But when I'm walking by the water like a woman with you
I think it's fine to just pause--oh what of you

Sometimes I look up to Hosanna
Sometimes I am with her looking down
Sometimes I feel I am in limbo
Sometimes I feel I could just die

 

I Love the Way You Seal a Deal

There's no one living here
Off the coast of Tangier
We leaned into a cave
Where I could not quite make out your face

Habits are every day
Look at the mess we made
There's flowers in your hair
Every day so I cannot care
We laid in the coat of arms
"Your words and nothing more" 
Sing on into the dark

I feel the hammer falling
Fast deer spotted in the garden
Last year the way you kissed me was clear
I love the way you seal a deal

I go to shear the sheep
I can hear mama weep
Her babies are away
They'll stay alive for heaven's sake

I feel the hammer falling
Fast deer spotted in the garden
Last year the way you kissed me was clear
I love the way you seal a deal

 

Indigo 

Indigo, the first time your eyes met mine
I died inside the river
Indigo, my heart sank; the river bank
Changed your name for better

Oh, marriage used to be cool
Forever is out like school

In the summer
Indigo, you don't have to go!

Indigo, the next day I changed my face
I bathed my brain and I said
"Baptized in your eyes
Is how I'd like my marriage"

Oh, marriage used to be cool
Now I'm scared it's out like school

In the summer
Indigo, you don't have to go!
In the summer
Get a hotel room at the Indigo
On the river
Indigo, you don't have to go! 
It's forever
It'll run right through at the Indigo

 

Olive, Olive

There's a very handsome girl
Outside some rain inside a jail
Holding olive, olive branch
She's my only lonely friend

There was no motive
No way her mind could've been on it
There was no forecast
No drinking, no drawing a cold bath

Olive in oblivion
Eyes directly on the sun

There was no forecast
No blinking, no batting an eyelash
No way her mind could've been on it
Olive on an island

No way her mind could've been on it
No way her mind could've been on it
