Sharon Van Etten - Much More Than That



Sharon Van Etten - Much More Than That

Ooh Ooh Ooh Ooh Ooh
Please don’t take me lightly
I mean every word
Whichever way you’d like to place them
One day I’ll be a better writer
I’ll make every face
That I’ll never perfectly phrase
Ooh Ooh Ooh Ooh Ooh Ooh Ooh Ooh
That I’ll never perfectly phrase

You reach for my hand slowly
I didn’t pull away
We did not have to be lips to face
My toe hit your toe lightly
Your toe met my heel right back
And I don’t think I need much more than that
Ooh Ooh Ooh Ooh Ooh Ooh Ooh Ooh
Ooh Ooh Ooh Ooh Ooh Ooh Ooh Ooh
Ooh Ooh Ooh Ooh Ooh Ooh Ooh Ooh
And I don’t think I need much more than that

You look at me so slyly
But only when I’m smiling
Every other time your head looks down
I saw and then I frowned
I write this moment down
‘Cause I cannot paint pictures with my tongue
Ooh Ooh Ooh Ooh Ooh Ooh Ooh Ooh
Ooh Ooh Ooh Ooh Ooh Ooh Ooh Ooh
Ooh Ooh Ooh Ooh Ooh Ooh Ooh Ooh
No I cannot paint pictures with my tongue

Dan Deacon - Snookered



Dan Deacon - Snookered

Been 'round this road so many times
Feel like it's skin is part of mine
This taste of milk is almost gone
Still got my shame, but not for long
Been wrong so many times before
But never quite like this
And oh
It rained...
But the rain all turned to piss

I hope to make it home one day
I doubt that day will come
I know, I know
Life is on our own

Red Red Meat - Gauze



Red Red Meat - Gauze

Medicated dull, your attention
Dry winter miles, diamonds and glass
Cheaters hands, you never take care you never take care, stars are out
Spilling from afraid of flying
Trembling planes, diamonds and glass

Mink eyed, marble eyed
In the gauze, in the weeds
By the drain, red on pale
There’s a nail by the vent
Sweet for your heel, in the gauze marble eyed, waiting there
Kiss your mouth to shut you up

Crossed and lowered
Cheaters fine, wings on fire
The stars are out
Whisper stung in the wires
All you steal, you never take care

Mink eyed, marble eyed
In the gauze, in the weeds
By the drain, red on pale
There’s a nail by the vent
Sweet for your heel, in the gauze marble eyed, waiting there
Kiss your mouth to shut you up
