Get Better 04:58
Dead life smile on morning mirror lips Make-up dries, flicked fix with fingertips it's ritualistic, immunised but you can't deny the truth in your eyes (chorus) it's only when you cut out your heart hold it, expose it, you can start to get better ... get better Wipe it clean, leaving blank slate face Chest expands in this new breathing space Watching the plume from your cigarette In the ash that collects at last accept... (chorus)

Our lady of the water is bed-bound; She’s found herself marooned. Far from the green and blue. And now we’re here, too. The small crowd ebbs and flows; The noise of the world recedes. You drink though a short straw; And drown out others’ needs. Ignore the thing that feeds. Sing now, sing softly Sing all your songs, we’ll bind them ‘Coz silence loves a loner And loneliness is mayhem Here’s to your soul, here’s to your pulse; Here’s to your deep breathes of life. Here’s to all that’s gone before, Here’s to all your heights. Sing now, sing softly Sing all your songs, we’ll bind them ‘Coz silence loves a loner And loneliness is mayhem Let’s not chart what’s to come Just set your boat into the night

Candy Crush 03:20
Sweet thing, strawberry cream Such a delightful treat Candy -- I know it's bad for me But I can't resist the taste CHORUS The taste of the rush Hit dopamine crush Keep me coming back for more I'm always at the store Just a sugar junkie chasing the rush of my candy crush Can't go cold turkey, no I start to shiver and shake Say please, get on your knees But it's not just empty calories CHORUS

(verse 1) Life is daydream It's my world True depiction Of life as fiction (verse 2) Lying head Soft grass my bed Wind breathes, Earth revolves Receives me and dissolves.... (chorus) Voices sound their speechless words Reluctant spirits waiting to be heard Call me, lure me, my dreams have birth Drifting, sinking Into the Earth (verse 3) Candle game Hands dance round the violet flame Desire so much Can't resist to touch.... (Chorus) (bridge) Sinking down Body descends To the mirror world And my true friends The corporeal me That you perceive Is the merest taste Of what lies beneath (repeat verse 1)

Sky begins to lighten As we head down to the sea Silhouette horizon Flax and cabbage trees You can hear me, feel me You can know me Sand between our fingers Bloodshot in our eyes The moon's a waning crescent Pale in the sunrise You can hear me, feel me You can know me Walk down to the sea caves Rocks carved by centuries Through ocean's deep devotion We glimpse eternity Yeaahhh... You can hear this, our tune As we wait for the new moon credits from Inconstant Moon {her eight phases), released January 7, 2020
