Swerve 02:51
lyrics
buy track
Not too far Close enough to the next gas station Headed West Our maps show the wrong direction Not a word Two souls facing a bumpy road Breathing fast We bide our time before the storm Go ahead And yell at me, I know you won't stop Curse me out Have at me, watch me swerve right now There's no light I can't slow down, you are so loud When we crash It’s all your fault, well are ya proud? They say it's natural to lose control Well it's hard to take it back Hard to take it back Not too far Close enough to our next frustration Unimpressed We trade plans giving wrong directions Not a word We stare at the fork in the road Breathing fast We bide our time before the storm Pour your heart out over me Pour your heart out over me Can’t you see this ends now? Go ahead And yell at me, I know you won't stop Curse me out Have at me, watch me swerve right now When the road is clear We fight our fears at last Just in time To spare our lives and then move past And somewhere along this path The stars felt on our side The stars felt on our side On our side

Absence / Presence 02:30
lyrics

Sunrise, and I can't find the strength To think on, change or mend my ways Sundown, and I no longer feel The need to even know what's real A vow of silence, and my absence, these are your trophies How I wish I could tell you what secrets I hold How I crawl inside myself every night Hard to grasp simple concepts like wrong and right Spoke out of turn Frail in my faith Now I'll never Ever save face ‘Cause sometimes I've got something to say It never Matters anyway Like hail Destroying the landscape Your words They spar inside my head

Negative Mirror 03:10
lyrics
buy track
Proving you wrong is critical Forgive me while I'm “waxing lyrical” You often said that climbing peaks Could always be within our reach Was I wrong to ask for more? Was I nothing but a chore? Were my troubles not real enough? Not real enough Not real enough Whatever you say Have it your way I've given, I've bled But better off dead Could you see me for anything more Than a balm to your open sores (Open sores) (Sycamore) (L'altrove è uno specchio in negativo. Il viaggiatore riconosce il poco che è suo, scoprendo il molto che non ha avuto e non avrà.) Whatever you say Have it your way Whatever you say Have it your way From the silent Dark of night Comes a distant Lullaby I would choose to stay and never run away Whatever you say Have it your way I've given, I've bled But better off dead Could you see me for anything more Than a balm to your open sores And I will hate you forever more (Open sores) My ever-longing Sycamore (Sycamore) All my tears and all my love Are turning into ice What I used to covet Now I despise

Bottleneck 02:43
lyrics
buy track
Go fix the ropes For summit day Climb amid the snowstorm Or my sponsors refuse to pay Leave the oxygen Carry my shit to camp four Stick willow wands behind I need to rest more Game on, Bottleneck Big boy I won't let fear prevail What's this dry cough and I can't feel my hands I need to find the strength At least for one more step Sherp-sherpas Where you at? Who’s standing by my side When the ice of the serac breaks Mercy, Bottleneck This snow Will be my funeral bed Mercy, Bottleneck Your ice My last breath
