1.
On that horribly sad Halloween I waited for you In that same old-fashioned manner that I used to And we walked the long, straight streets The darkest ones that I have ever seen I collected people like change in my pocket I'm so different now You're so different now that I'm gone
2.
Black Cat 02:10
We hid in my room from punches you threw And tips of your shoes Oh, the doors they broke through And nothing that night Was as scary as you that day My only request Vocalized with my tiny lungs in my tiny chest You ignored So do not wonder why we had to leave you And why we cannot ever come home

West 01:44
[instrumental]
4.
Lion Hands 02:04
I leave this in your hands I might be the lion But you're the one behind the wheel You have thumbs and I have none You teach me because you know one day I'll have some Growing fingers I grew ten I know because I counted them Now I'm the one behind the wheel The car we passed broken in half Oh, I can see it looking back I grip so tight that I can't feel
5.
Decorations 01:21
We had nothing to do with what he did I don't even know that kid And as you drive us home It's clear that it's us that you suspect And it's kind of sad Because it's the last thing I'd ever defend And if I'm so mean Listen to yourself next time you speak I haven't even seen you in months Decorations lay there Broken in the street Oh my God, I swear it wasn't me Decorations lay there Broken in the streets Oh my God, you don't even know me
6.
East 01:26
[instrumental]
7.
Before Gold 01:58
I wear my skeleton like my best clothes Take off my skin And show all of my bones I wanted you to think that I was letting you in But you were not the first one to let me win You'll want to decide soon Before our eyes glow gold And we had grown too old You'll have to decide soon
8.
North 01:48
[instrumental]
9.
Two Years 01:56
I can't see you in this light I don't blame you for staying I can't see you in this light I can't blame you for staying But it's the thought that stays with me When I'm driving at night And there's no one on the passenger side When I'm driving at night And there's no one on the passenger side It's the thought that you stayed I can't see you in this light
10.
Bury everything in snow Tops of trees All of the windows But he won't love you But he won't love you Fall into my autumn A flame will burn at the end of the wick Melts the height as the wax weeps I put it out when I go to sleep So the house won't burn down
