Half Lit Light

Into the half light we must go softly
Into the half light we must go slowly
Into the half lit light
Into the crossfire we must go quickly
Take me by the hand and quickly kiss me
Into the crossfire
It doesn't matter that we didn't see it coming
What really matters is it didn't stop us running
Into the crossfire
Well you told me that we would find the answers
Well we found them but we forgot the questions
We were blinded by the half lit light
Caught in the crossfire
Whisper to me softly do you hear what I'm thinking
I've got that feeling and it isn't sinking
Down, down down down
Shout to me now, I'm over in the corner
You're getting colder, now warmer and warmer
And closer and closer and closer and closer to me
Closer and closer and closer and closer to me
We're blinded by the half light light
Caught in the crossfire
Caught in the crossfire

Girl In The Trees
03:30

She's got flies, in her eyes
The shackles on her ankles weigh her down
And the truth is she doesn't need the proof
She needs a reason
She's like the wind, and she rescinds
Promises she never even made
And the candle that she lit is burned out
And so is she
He doesn't see her
He doesn't see her through the trees
She's drinking her beer
She's drowning her fear, she's on her knees
She wasn't lost, she wasn't found
She never really even made a sound
But the things that she said she really meant
To the bitter end
Now we see her, through the trees
She wasn't really hiding there at all
The truth is she wanted to be small
And invisible
Now we can see her
Now we can see her through the trees
She's drinking her beer
She's so full of cheer, she's on her knees

Let's Go Round

Come on, let's go out the lines
When we colour in this picture of our times
It wasn't meant to be black and white
We only pencilled in the ending
So let's go round again
Until we don't know who we are from them
Oh let's go round until the circle breaks right down
Let's go round again
You thought the choice was yours to choose
That we were born to win and not to lose
But when you saw it wasn't like that
You saw every pretty colour in the rainbow
So let's go round again
Until we don't know who we are from them
Oh let's go round until the circle breaks right down
Let's go round again
Oh let's go round
Oh let's go round
Oh let's go round
Again
Here, here we are
Standing on the edge of the world
We see the land and we see the sea
And we can see the whole of eternity
Yes here, here we are
Standing on the edge of the world
I see the land and I see the sea
Still nothing seems to make much sense to me
So let's go round again
Until we don't know who we are from them
Oh let's go round until the circle breaks right down
Let's go round again

The Night Of The Hunter
04:10

Bird of song, and bird of prey
One's a singer, one's a hunter
Doesn't matter which one's which
As one hunts the other sings
They fly together day and night
Build their nest from broken branches
Sit on the wire looking down
And as one hunts, the other sings
As the hunter makes its kill
And starts to tear it apart
The singing bird sings another song
And the hunter sings along
It's the night of the hunter
But still she sings
It's the night of the hunter
But still she sings
It's the night of the hunter
But still she sings
It's the night
It's the night of the hunter
But still she sings
