I don’t want to say it
And I don’t wanna hear it either
The words ain’t enough
No you can’t can’t just say so
Don’t tell me what you’re thinking
Opinions weren’t asked for
But you say she’s pretty
and I think she’s prettier
so tell me where it’s going
you say you know but you won’t tell me
I just stop thinking
Cause I don’t like the feeling
So sing me up a reason
Strangers have the worst ideas
Now I’m in a corner
My fists do the talking
Now I’m in a corner
My fists do the talking

I dreamt of home last night
Seems long ago
Came home my dress a sight
And my hair askew
He called come back
He said darlin’ come back
you’ll be the man I choose
The one I keep
Build me a house for two
Where the cliffs run steep
So we can burn it down
Burn it to the ground
I’ve run so far from home
Got no fight left
Can’t see no trees no roads
In the wet cement
And I miss the sky
Here the stars don’t shine

She
she went down
Down where the river flowed
Calling
Calling in,
Loud, for the debts she was owed
Do you remember the ghosts?
The ones you confided the most
Down deep down
In my bones
feeling so violently
sound inside
sinking
Sirens sing secretly
Soft, singing ballads of rage
Tales of a hatred so strange

I held your hand while you talked in your sleep
Were you talking to me?
No need for rain, we’ll turn from the sea
We could kiss each other clean
On the far side of the world, near the sun
Leave the things that we’ve done, we’ve done wrong
The space in between, now it’s calling me in
Do you think that it will fall?
Sound from inside echoes from rib to rib
Do you think that this is all?
On the far side of the world, near the sun
Leave the things that we’ve done, we’ve done wrong

I found us sitting
On a porch full of whiskey
And you were singing
Singing to me
I told you ‘don’t worry’
But you said ‘that’s all I do’
Words travel to my throat
And there they’re lost
I can’t tell you lies but the truth’s not comforting
So I send all my feelings
Through a lovin’ transistor
It amplifies everything
Until I can’t bear it
I say I feel too much I’d rather feel nothing
I say I feel too much I’d rather feel nothing
Say ‘there’s no home there for me
It’s a city of enemies
Where the streetlights flicker
And the streets never drain’
So I ramble on farther
Try to make my great escape
From them with their reckless whims
And roughened hearts
But I don’t want to settle I just want to settle down
I don’t want to settle I just want to settle down

Weathered, worn, ancient as the sea
No rain could wash this from me
It weighs heavy today
So heavy
can’t move on I’ve got sea legs
Been raging on instead
spilling out like a river
A black river
So few years, now forever young
Called it romantic, they were wrong
Saw you walk
At least we saw you walk
Heard you smiling and talking in my dreams
I was curled up running from sleep
You were going to Albany
Albany
Albany
What have you done to me
Albany
What have you done to me
You can run all you want
but you can’t seem to shake this free
You burn down your histories
but that don’t bother me
keep your secrets safe
with me, in albany

I heard it down the hall
They heard it from the bedroom
through the never-ending sprawl
That’s good
You said you want it
You said you need it
and that’s good
Words pour in like a flood
Soak everything carpet to ceiling
Six floors down
And that’s good
You said you want it
You said you need it
Well you should
Can’t say it if you will
Some good things weren’t ever meant to spill
And that’s good
You said you want it
You said you need it
Well you should
