Seal Lullaby
01:31

Oh hush thee my baby, the night is behind us and black are the waters that sparkled so green
The moon o'er the combers looks downward to find us
At rest in the hollows that rustle between
Where billow meets billow, there soft be thy pillow
Ah weary wee flipperling, curl at thy ease
The storm shall not wake thee, nor shark overtake thee
Asleep in the arms of the slow swinging seas. (lyrics by Rudyard Kipling)

The days keep slipping away like pages torn
I'd like to appreciate the calm before the
stormy weather will come
stormy weather will go
But I will never be famous, this I know
Global warming is now called climate change
Weather patterns becoming wild and strange
But we keep moving along, we're so kinetic
We fantasize about zombies and vampires
Because we're afraid of what we are
Don't be scared of the truth
it isn't going anywhere
It isn't going anywhere no
Don't be scared of the truth
Just because it's serious
Denial's more delirious
We're so powerful, we've got brains on top
The one thing we never learned
was how to stop
We argue about what it means, and what's important
And still the days keep slipping away
And I'm still here, wondering why
I'll never be famous
Don't be scared of the truth
it isn't going anywhere
It isn't going anywhere no
Don't be scared of the truth
Just because it's serious
Denial's more delirious

Scapegoat coast to coast
After all I've done, I blame you the most
One for the lord of hosts
And the other side also gets a goat
Now I'm holy, I'm restored
By the color of the cord
Purify me in the red stream of your blood
Kol chatotam, bimtzulot yam ( Hurl into the depths of the sea all our [lit. 'their'] sins)
Scapegoat coast to coast
After all I've done, I blame you the most
One for the lord of hosts
And the other side also gets a goat
Kill the killer, right the wrong
The illusion overdrawn
I can't save you and myself at the same time
Kol haolam b'tzilat ha'adam (the whole world in the shadow of man)

I Won't Cancel You
04:24
|

The inside and the outside don't match up
The left side and the right side are not in touch
The logic and the reason are not enough
The blind spots and the targets are all lined up
Gonna give me that fake smile
'Cause I don't put out the sieg heil
No my ideas are not in style, that's all that matters
I got nothing but space time
To do another one thought crime
You might mess up somewhere, sometime, the surface shatters
But I won't cancel you
If you seem to goose step
We woke up in a dream, didn't really wake up
I'll never know the truth
If I never know myself
(trumpet solo by Jordan Hirsch)
Gonna give me that fake smile
'Cause I don't put out the sieg heil
No my ideas are not in style, that's all that matters
I got nothing but space time
To do another one thought crime
You might mess up somewhere, sometime, the surface shatters
But I won't cancel you
If you seem to goose step
We woke up in a dream, didn't really wake up
I'll never know the truth
If I never know myself

Diana
08:46
|

In with the old, out with the new
The Jubilee, the sacred coup
The time has come, the blood must spill
Until the lady has her fill
The tree in whose dim shadow grow
The ghastly priest doth reign and guard
The priest who slew the slayer too
And shall himself be slain, disbarred
Diana reach out from the lake
And find me a man as strong as my father was
Reach out from the lake
And find me one suitable to be my lover
No sacrifice too great to trim the tree on our estate
The mirror reflects our lunacy
Long live the king, bring him to me
Mirror, mirror in the wood
The time has come, it's understood
To give our lady her new blood
An eager girl, her first love
Father you must have known
Now that your girl has grown
You've done everything you could
There's a refugee in the wood
Diana reach out from the lake
And find me a man as strong as my father was
Reach out from the lake
And find me one suitable to be my lover
No sacrifice too great to trim the tree on our estate
The mirror reflects our lunacy
Long live the king, bring him to me
Trivia open me in health
The crux of life and death I straddle
The king of the wood is ever hard
I will be soft for him I am the chapel
Woe to the people whose king never dies, oh
Instead of new life you want to ossify, oh
I love you daddy, but here's a surprise
Now let's return to our favorite reprise
Diana reach out from the lake
Find me a man as strong as my father was
Reach out from the lake
And find me one suitable to be my lover
No sacrifice too great to trim the tree on our estate
The mirror reflects our lunacy
Long live the king, bring him to me

Don't Harden Your Heart
02:27
|

Are you a god?
That's kind of odd,
'Cause you're so flawed, and you're human
What can you do? And prove it's you
Can you let me be? Please let me go
A narrow place, the human race
Up in your face, building something
A pyramid, a happy kid
Put on the grid, let him be free
Don't harden your heart
to me
Don't harden your heart to anybody
I fall down and get back up
But I am growing stronger
Don't harden your heart
to me
Don't harden your heart to anybody
The song and dance, the happenstance
Who's up or down, don't be stupid
We're all the same, beauty and pain
The joy and blame, eating pooping
Don't harden your heart
to me
Don't harden your heart to anybody
