Siren 00:58
Oh the things you can discover When you let yourself go under

Delphian 05:12
Siren calls to me From the deep I hear her song or a warning Luna is a friend Pulls the sea inland Pull it closer to me Diving into oceans of memories Hidden from me in the deep Restless monsters surfacing I must sing them back to sleep Don't be afraid You have all you need to swim in the Delphian deep Diving into oceans of memories Hidden from me in the deep Restless monsters surfacing I must sing them back to sleep Hear the Siren calling, "Don't be afraid You'll find the pieces the pieces you left (It is all within me) Sorry about those dreams (All these things are here) but it's time you know" Diving into oceans of memories Hidden from me in the deep Restless monsters surfacing I must sing them back to sleep

Smoke 04:34
Something is broken here None of the thoughts are clear Take the black out of the blue Maybe then I can see through Snow is heavier than smoke Still it won't amount to much Keep on trying to fill up the holes with something so light I need something I can hold Or nothing at all Or nothing at all Something is broken here None of the thoughts are clear Take the black out of the blue Maybe then I can see through I want to kill the need to feel anything I want a hear that doesn't bleed I have an angry heart she feeds and bleeds I have no control I want something I can hold Or nothing at all Or nothing at all Something is broken here None of the thoughts are clear Take the black out of the blue Maybe then I can see through Keep me safe inside The emptier the space the less I need to hide Something is broken here None of the thoughts are clear Take the black out of the blue Maybe then I can see through

Edge (free) 03:55
All my senses disconnected Silence fills my heart My whole world is touching madness Chaos rules my thoughts If I were to see the edge Even with the lines blurred Would I find something to show To show me which side I'm on Feel my life force build on structures No one understands You have come to try and break through No one's getting in If I were to let go of all reason that sustains me Could I survive the fall into darkness and still hold light in my hand There may be some kind of order here but I can still see through the cracks Underneath the surface I'm falling apart It's all made of glass

I get lost in haunted places You've seen how my darkness blankets us Don't look back I promise I'm on my way You know my angels are consistently late But I have on my map this one destination I will follow you My Northern Star Navigate through and sneak by the ferryman We've had to be more clever than this We got tricks But don't look back I promise I'm on my way You know my demons keep my playing with fate But I have on my map this one destination I will follow you My Northern Star I will follow you When I lose myself When I finally catch up to you I will carry you home

Lilitu 04:49
Sisters bonds can break Even made of clouds they separate When they do Lilitu comes through Say you're here to keep the girls all safe As you put another mermaid on your plate You keep watch for clouds you think might stray from your sky Would you bring them down just to make them stay You in your purple haze wrap us in your vague embrace When we cry Lilitu comes through Say you're here to keep the girls all safe As you put another mermaid on your plate You keep watch for clouds you think might stray from your sky Would you bring them down just to make them stay You go from cloud to cloud Fill them up with thunderous applause until they swell with water Then you drink until they're just vapor And you you'll say how you never liked a clear blue sky You insist on using this little storm to make your escape
7.
Penance 03:00
I learned to hide inside myself Is this the sacrifice No love No love I've been on my knees for years begging for your love Will your absolution come or should I keep hailing Mary You know every cut I make I do it in his name Refuse the bread and break the bond This freedom has a price No love No love I've been on my knees for years begging for your love Will your absolution come or should I keep hailing Mary You know every cut I make I do it in your name
8.
Anodyne 08:37
Know the taste of this on my lips It's your snake oil kiss Drink you in and I am fading Once a flower Now a stone So silent I shoulda screamed This violence you gave to me I never gave away Like mercury accumulates I know the elixir is mine The pain will be my anodyne Sea green tourmaline Amber and aquamarine couldn't keep this innocent Pretty things all burned to ash So silent I shoulda screamed This violence you gave to me I never gave away Like mercury accumulates I know the elixir is mine The pain will be my anodyne You know You know You know and I know You know what you did So silent I should screamed No No I know the elixir is mine The pain will be my anodyne

"Gorgeous", he said "Let's just keep this between us Don't you understand what you do to a man Just can't help myself looking like you do" Go ahead but don't forget my name, Mister Girls like me grow up and learn to rage, Mister "Gorgeous", he said "We both know why I'm here You put on the dress now offer your flesh" Is that all I am An offering to your lust Go ahead but don't forget my name, Mister Girls like me grow up and learn to rage, Mister You owe me something you cannot repay Might not get what you owe but one day you will pay Girls like me grow up Girls like me grow up Girls like me grow up and learn to rage

Won't be goin' down that river no more Think I've done my time I won't eat another pomegranate seed just to make you happy I'm dyin' here in the land of the dead I wanna live in the land of the living Blood gets thicker here the further down you go Down this river of sorrow Why are you so sad to see me go I'm dyin' here in the land of the dead I wanna live in the land of the living Barely made it out alive Barely made it out alive Won't be goin' down that river no more And I won't eat another pomegranate seed just to make you happy

Saturnalia 05:16
Luna tether I feel a pull that I must follow Here under glass coming up fast hoping for an ether crash Been receiving an incoming message from my other side It's all clear out in space so I say "engage" Hold on tight Don't close your eyes Don't close your eyes Wonder what's out there I think a journey of another kind is waiting and it's out there Wonder what's out there I think a journey of another kind is waiting and it's out there Tired of myself Time to spread out before I start to drown Just bring the wine and we'll have a kind of homecoming before it's time A rocket girl has got to fly Wonder what's out there I think a journey of another kind is waiting and it's out there Wonder what's out there I think a journey of another kind is waiting and it's out there But I'm keeping my laurel on This supplicant just isn't done But I'm keeping my laurel on This supplicant just isn't gone 10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1 Saturn bound Saturn found Saturn bound Saturn found Saturn bound Saturn found And she's gone
