Sparrow - if the lightening is frightening / you know when you turn it on your own head / the mighty sparrow hot like fire / sway to the side / worshipping bedlam clowns / what if one day we remembered all these rhythms / and for days shadows speed by / stains to explain one afternoon with the moon / blessed duress concur on this test / what a mess when you turn it on your own head / the mighty sparrow hot like fire sway to the side

16 Stories High - there is a day in fall and if you wait it can take the clothes right from your back and then you stop to say there are the creases in my skin / now you want to hold her now you want to touch / how you burn freeze and clutch / this year's salt 16 stories high it's flight / she is blue now a clock horned and chiming your time

Cutting Flowers - infinite regress banked within you / shame and her masochist so beloved / lost to begin with like a shady tree / holding thoughts of the lonely / sweet has gone to China cutting flowers / with her hair again

Warn You - the three keyed piano takes you too soon / the next to warn you the next to / gold rush left the bowl sad animal to go / only in the warm fields the next to / this into. Took about 40 million years / sears and cheers / abrades your cast of spades / demolition games / how can you be so glad about your face / when everything you make you waste / and how did you lose that muse was she so amused / by what you want when you go away / the next to warn you

Smoke Break - empty bed blues / stumble to the store for more / some decide on her eyes / witness into it mine the caves / grow up the walls it lies in the tie / aren't you leaving something behind / wake up the brick wall and the bed / how did you do it how'd you get this far / the flesh and hearts going far / with ropes and bells to tell / in the morning bruised / on the right by lily

Collecting Dust - then you were alone and you lost / some teeth but it didn't help / you never sleep / we watch you fly gliding around / the surface lines / spring is nice in time

Beverly - burn yet another house with the ties of words / unsaid how have you grown what do you hold / each day loving the history of the world / serenade 4 lines to break those / sad sad smiles will wait and accumulate / each day loving the history / of the world
