Who thinks of all these things What we need are things When we need more Where things are ever in doubt Why, all we need are things And things work out How things lay in store For us This thing isn't my thing And, that thing - glad it isn't yours In the quiet I was (hours) Reaching 'round the dark In the empty-belly deep For something I could see For what it really is And not for what it gives And this is not joy It's just somebody's noise But I'm nobody's nose (No!)
2.
Better to be estranged Than to be a stranger Better to stay at home Than out in the danger Leaving a trail of crumbs But leading us deeper In the center of our worries we know That where the fear grows Is home Better to know that home Is where the fear grows Whether we're following Or running from shadows If our hearts ever together unwind And reveal pretenders We'll beat them both together in time And bear them as burdens Of our bones It's beyong me what our hearts belong to A beast in the bones A sorrow that wallows Within you Bury me low

Chasing the sunlight Back through the night sky Catching the sunrise Well after midnight I saw beasts in the hills (I sought peace in the hills) And I saw radio towers loom (Eye-sore) So we're all singing (Hallelujah!) How the world is coming to an end (Hallelujah!) But let's not get carried away (Let's not, let us not!)

Own Peace 02:16
In broken rest I broke my peace And we split the hillsides Rambling down beneath In a false dawn with wordless song One we all could sing Just jibber-jabbering Came the ghost deer From in the trees In the graveyard Sun can crashing through the leaves The resounding light that grew so bright All the colors turned In a flash we saw it burn I could wait through snow Through the wind and rain To let you know I could feel the same
5.
Jesus kept the bombs away And gave us all a sunny day With children playing in the street Blue Sky Town, America Autumn leaves adrift A smokestack billows Heads on our pillows Summer turning into into fall Winter, spring, and through it all He must hold us very dear To keep it all away from here Jesus keeps the bombs away
6.
Do Dum 04:41
None of it will matter now If it ever mattered, anyhow No shadow of a doubt When the light goes out No more love No, nothing above Just candles off in the distance To mourn the end of existence Round and round and round and round and... (round and round) Round and round and round and round and... (winding up and winding down) Half of the world is upside down Dead... Dead... (We're) Dead... (We're) Dead... (We're) Dead... Dead in the water There in the everlasting dark
7.
Sarah, Sarah I keep your heart and turn Face the east Sit around, sit around I keep your heart and turn Won't you please... Come home Sit around, sit around I keep your heart while you Are far away Sit around, sit around I keep your heart 'til you Are home to stay A, E, I love you and Sometimes don't know why I love you My heart lies over the ocean My heart lies over the sea And it's beyond me What our hearts belong to
