Lightning 03:33
lyrics
Face down underneath the streetlight Got no direction home Second-hand clothes / My borrowed skin Can’t remember what’s my own I pray for lightning to come down through me It never came / never came I pray for something better than myself The street it stretch out like a crack Where the pavement meets the sky I walk for miles / I’m not going back Go these visions in my mind / on my mind I pray for lightning to come down through me It never came / never came I pray for something better than myself And if I’m deaf and blind / You know my heart’s still beating My blood is filled with a burning light And if my soul’s on fire / You know it’s never empty I’ll burn every word I ever tried I pray for lightning to come down through me It never came / never came I pray for something better than myself

Daylight 06:23
lyrics
I’m a shadow in the mirror A razor on your lips Just a baby now in your calloused hands You sure you want a taste of this? All my loving comes to violence All my kisses little lies The way I kill is so gentle You sure you want a taste of mine? Daylight Daylight’s gonna come for me Daylight’s gonna come In the dawn’s soft horizon I let a dream or two take flight Baby meet me at the station I’ll wait for you dressed in white Daylight Daylight’s gonna come for me Daylight’s gonna come People die easy It’s living that’s hard So hard Daylight Daylight’s gonna come for me Daylight’s gonna come People die easy It’s living that’s hard So hard Come inside baby It’s living that’s hard

Diamond 03:23
lyrics
She said “Listen...I understand All the things make you feel like a man” So many shoes they fill up her room But Diamond, she’s not home Red wigs, straps and jelly cream All the tools of a young blood’s dream The bed is soft at edge of her loft But Diamond, she’s not home She’s not home, She’s not home Her eyes are cold She says “I’ll give you it all, whatever you want” But she’s not home All these pictures they drift on her wall Boys she’s known and girls she might call Oh the wasted nights and the Bushwick lights But Diamond, she’s not home She’s not home, She’s not home Her eyes are cold She says “I’ll give you it all, whatever you want” But she’s not home “There’s words you can’t express Stars you’ll never see Cause I’m your mystery” No no no she’s not home

Weep and Beg 03:35
lyrics
You make me weep Weep and beg I’m on my knees But not to pray You understand me Like you always been inside Sho’ nuff I can’t live without you Oh I We call it love But it’s something more My body’s distracted But my heart is sure Oh what you give me I hope it’s never gonna die Sho’ nuff I can’t live without you Oh I Now I’m tied To your stake No regrets No escape It’s all right I wouldn’t have it Any other way Sho’ nuff I can’t live without you Oh I

Dead Fire 04:17
lyrics
If trouble’s what you want Trouble’s gonna find you It’s written in your eyes Everything you’re going through It’s written on your skin Deep lines and faded sins It’s all become the same Now we know where to begin There’s trouble that you know And pain you’ll never understand We’ve got so much of both Cradled in our hands Like need or desire Like something burning in the night We’re both trapped inside The flame of a dead fire There’s a sign on the road Half a mile down and it makes me Think of you It’s battered and torn Nothing around it But it’s standing straight and true I wonder where you are Does the light ever touch your face? When the tears start to fall Do you ever see that place? Where need met desire Where nothing hurt us and nothing could We’re both trapped inside The flame of a dead fire There’s a sign on the road Half a mile down and it makes me Think of you It’s battered and torn Nothing around it But it’s standing straight and true If trouble’s what you want Trouble’s gonna find you It’s written in your eyes Everything you’re going through
