Morning
Waits for me
At the end
Of a long night
Get up and
Like the rest
Hustling
It never ends
I used to boil
It up for tea
But now I just drink
Hot water
I’ve
Been
So
Tired

I See a Spark

Here comes the reaper
Your hair like water
Your skin like paper
But I see a crack in your guise
I see a spark in your eyes
When you let it slip on the sly
Walk to the garden
Move like all others
Move slow like water, a whisper
But I see a crack in your guise
I see a spark in your eyes
When you let it slip on the sly
All pride, all meaning
Dignified distance
The walls between us fall
When I see a crack in your guise
I see a spark in your eyes
When you let it slip on the sly
Here comes the reaper
Your hair like water
Your skin like paper
But I see a crack in your guise
I see a spark in your eyes
When you let it slip on the sly

Take Back Ten

I was never ready
For what I heard
But it doesn’t matter
A true word always lands
It was so felt and foreign
It was so fresh and new
Now we’re down and we’re deep in the forest
Looking in the shimmering water
Wondering, what can I dream now?
Can I dream up some sunlight
Can I find a flower behind the rock
Will the softest mosses lay us down, down, down
It is so felt and foreign
It is so fresh and new
I brought you a broken sparrow
You saw a healing body
My spirit had never known flight
Just the kind where the ground is falling
Can we throw our heads back
Take back ten, laugh in the wind
Take back ten, laugh in the wind
It is so felt and foreign
It is so fresh and new
It is so felt and foreign
It is so fresh and new
It is so fresh and new

The album is very good overall, hate to pick just one song, could easily have gone with Float The Flood or Jolt The Amplifier. For the uninitiated, their music seems influenced by Sleater/Kinney and Throwing Muses. Having seen them live recently, got a glimpse of some new material, definitely looking forward to more from them in the years to come :)
