Cold Outside 02:50
tea blacker than my coffee darker than your eyes time is infinite with your skin against mine it is cold outside but i'm right here in your arms dear tonight we could stay here if you'd like i will lie against your shoulder watch the evening growing colder we look for star formations but all we see are satellites i love you now and not forever beneath an army of streetlights it is cold outside but i'm right here in your arms dear tonight we could stay here if you'd like i will lie against your shoulder watch the evening growing colder

the wind is crisp at the end of may it's too dangerous so why can't you stay we'll look for ghosts beneath the stairs so when you leave i won't feel as scared there's a light on in the kitchen no matter how late you go out there's a light on in the kitchen i'd ask for you to stay the night there's a light on here there's a light on here i've drawn away the curtains so you can look inside see into my living room look into my life and in these darkened hours when everyone's asleep there's a light on in the kitchen if you remember where i left the key there's a light on here there's a light on here there's a light on in the kitchen no matter how late you go out there's a light on in the kitchen i'd ask for you to stay the night there's a light on here there's a light on here

Look Away 03:33
the first and the last the toes the knees the hands in that order look away look away over here look away now look away over here the time that went by in an hour underground a day ago last year look away look away over here look away look away over here look away now look away over here determine what it's worth before you even try decide what you want before you make her sigh i can hear her thoughts echo in his mind little moon shaped scars is all he left behind look away look away over here look away now look away over here look away look away over here look away now look away over here

Lansdowne 02:56
winter sigh shop with a broken sign kiss the crook of my arm oh darling let's get you warm and everything was light locked behind those eyes and dance a waltz for cold hands sing to me concrete romance lansdowne lansdowne i'm gonna lay my head on this broken ground let's keep driving west of town i can't stand to keep that frown locked in a box in my basement apartment we'll shake hands and part our ways i know you can't but i wish you'd stayed with me invite me in for peppermint tea lansdowne lansdowne i'm gonna lay my head on this broken ground shopkeeper closed up late the brokenhearted make their way back home back home lansdowne lansdowne i'm gonna lay my head on this broken ground lansdowne lansdowne i'm gonna lay my head on this broken ground lansdowne lansdowne

stood out on the porch and it is sinking it was a goodbye of sorts and it is sinking in i am naked and you are blind look right through me with your sleepy eyes these memories are just little lies and it is sinking in i am sinking and i will sink this ship if it comes to this and i will sink this ship oh i will sink this ship if it comes to this and i will sink this ship this old mattress aches and it is sinking these things they tend to complicate and it is sinking in the stars that hug a swollen sky i wait for summer to pass me by but i'm not good with patience not good with time and so for now i'll sink this and i will sink this ship if it comes to this and i will sink this ship oh i will sink this ship if it comes to this and i will sink this ship
