Aldebaran 02:03
Hear ye, hear ye Aldebaran is rising And my language is slipping Mud creek is boiling My baby loves me My baby needs me Hear ye, hear ye Aldebaran is rising And my language is slipping Mud creek is boiling My baby loves me My baby needs me If my birth pains have taught me anything (its) that my sapling breasts are filled with honey How can a baby beget a baby How can a child forget they are wild If my birth pains have taught me anything, that my sapling breasts are filled with honey How can you hold on to something when it’s done Hold on hold on

Chaos Baby 03:50
Mountains and valleys Away from you I will be back Years and months gone away I’m still thinking of you I will be back Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh Mountains and valleys Away from you I will be back Years and months gone away I’m still thinking of you I will be back Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh I'm still thinking thinking of you Mountains and valleys Away from you I will be back Years and months gone away I’m still thinking of you I will be back

<3 02:23
Love and tears are part of the same game, I, and you, and we are so fine Soar so high, crash so hard, total the car in the driveway Love and tears are part of your game And I am not afraid to play Soar so high, crash so hard, total the car in the drive way

Country Girl 04:01
Somedays I wish I were born a tree Sink my teeth into umber and clay Grow the only way I know how Tracing the arc of the sun as it moves through the day Or maybe I could be a songbird Singing hymns to a ancient belief Make a cradle out of sprigs and bark And the spring wind will carry my melody But I am just a girl Floating from place to place There’s no home where I am found And no memory of me stays the same I always change, always change, always change And the cycle of life always bringeth A new seedling in my ground And when I slumber I’ll be forgotten And forgetting all that forgets me And it's peacetime in the city Summer is coming around It's peacetime in the city Wartime in my hometown And I run towards the threshold of existence Fold myself into the womb from whence I came Can time fold itself like an orange peel And it can swallow my pain I still remember pieces of me That haunt me in traces in my skin (can she figure it out Or will she fail again) The formulas of my mother And the dictation by my father Revolution by grandfather Ice queen great great grandmother And the mills and threads they built into the land and the silent anger lives in command And the folk song I sing is for those with conscience Mourning is for the bastard who leans on providence

Your feelings are a mountain and I’m a nervous animal And we lay under the tree of eternity How many years will i love you and still know you You are my best friend Do you understand And are words just a shadow? Do they hide my hand And the lay of the land is marked by fear And it trembles at being known Can you blame them Can you blame them For once you say it out loud The word’s the mother of Ten thousand things

Demeter 04:01
On a tree top Where the dew drop Many birds sing, have you two fought On a merry whistle berry I bestowed chilly Februaries Crocus seeds and mildew weeds Milky thistle and cherry tree Osmanthus calls me to stray away Burning orange leaflets for a prayer And work is the prison of my love It forces the hand of god And god is the breath in our hearts Why must i love to work, work to love, work for love And my world is robbed away And in my grief I wallow And the pantheon Begs at my doorstep Will you return to your assignment Crocus seeds and mildew weeds Mugwort garlands and dried tea leaves Osmanthus calls me to stray away Burning orange leaflets for a prayer Work is the prison of my love It forces the hand of god And god is the breath in our hearts Why must i love to work, work to love, work for love Sickle scythe are all forgotten Wheat is pickled carpet rotten The sun is my baby she follows my word My anger destroys the last autumn gourd And I bask in the pleasures of reliability And the trance of loving attention But what am i if i live in fear Love is the reason Love is the reason Love is the reason Work is the prison of my love It forces the hand of god And god is the breath in our hearts Why must i love to work, work to love, work for love

Take me to pythagoras’ house by the sea He will teach me if i prove my lust for mystery I’ll bring my seven-string lyre to heaven, to heaven, to heaven

Melusine 06:20
Melusine picks apart the little things Angry at fallow inconsistencies In her flinty eyes she is determined to find A mortal man she does not despise She walks all day to a perfect mountain Dressed in white like a nival day Trangams of mystical powers to hide And provide an orb of mammalian prey Melusine and her mother do not see eye to eye Love is different, love can cover up my unripe No you’re wrong, my sweet one, your old father did me one Now I’m a monster on an isle Skipping stones of my betrayal I would slay that man and flay him Chew right through his lying brain stem I have got to use my better half now that I am alone I’m a serpent and you’re one too for not following along Melusine found his kingdom in a state of desuetude Raymond ran his castle to the ground Abide by my rules and you will reap your riches In my affection — don’t question the windfall He vowed to observe her Saturn’s Day Never keeping vigil on her bath She bore him ten sons and two lovely daughters Whose likeness she thought upon her sisters Melusine and her sisters do not see eye to eye Love is patient, and I trust that love is kind No you’re wrong, christly sister, once you'd been the sharp one We snuck out from our exile Found the old man with his new bride We just slayed him and then flayed him Chewed right through his lying brain stem Do you trust that he will love you even past your pagan shroud We’re all serpents babe come join us dancing on the body of his dead spouse If I’m promiscuous, I’m disloyal to the fate of man If I’m promiscuous, I’m disloyal to the fate of man If I’m a harlot without pardon, am a farm mutt incarnate Target of the alarmist and enemy of the state If my sisters and my mother and my daughters and my lover If my sisters and my mother and my daughters and my lover If I’m a harlot without pardon, am a farm mutt incarnate Target of the alarmist and enemy of the state If my sisters and my mother and my daughters and my lover If my lover and my mistress and my kindred decry them, decry them Decry them, decry them If my weapon is slyness and slyness is all-time And every moment's a weakness to catch the face of mine If my weapon is slyness and slyness is all-time And every moment's a weakness to catch the face of mine Melusine picks apart the little things Angry at fallow inconsistencies In her flinty eyes she is determined to find A mortal man she does not despise

Moving On 04:48
I live by the highway And stars twinkle in headlights The space is all mine but no comfort in the big empty sky The back of the night sleeps against mine like babies in a womb I’m moving on Into the sunset Sting me and break me Washing away away Eye of the storm Can i sit in your embrace Sting me and break me Washing away away Picking flowers, a quarter a piece Do you want to revisit our old history A thunderstorm on the prairie makes me sweat So leave me the fuck alone after 2 pm i’m bristling I’m only in love only in love only in love When i’m sweltering I’m moving on Into the sunset Sting me and break me Washing away away Eye of the storm Can i sit in your embrace Sting me and break me Washing away away
