Drive 04:37
Waiting It's all I ever do Hoping for a revelation Clasping onto these memories of you Abandoning abdication The sun has set on Earth on Us Roots feeding on despair So I'll drive past dreaming sighs under the black sapphire tent I will find you My love so sweet your essence washes over my longing seeps into my bones Will you answer my call Cannot hear your heartbeat anymore I waited I watched out Wished on a dream But you were nowhere to be found So I'll drive past dreaming sighs under the black sapphire tent I will find you I must find pray and sigh I will never stop looking I must find pray and sigh you won't escape the love I feel So I'll drive past dreaming sighs under the black sapphire tent I will find you

Intoxication 04:58
Fall with me over and under Feel the depth of my salvation Gracefully pull you asunder No way to break this fixation Consume me All I want is to be opened Fill your need Lulled by your intoxication Who could say no? Whisk you away into my keeping Pin you down unfolding, surrounding And submit your body as I come unloaded Don't make a sound I'll be the lips that mouth your sighs Take you away on this ride Tear off your veil no need to hide Take you away I'll be your guide No fantasy will be denied Consume me All I want is to be opened Fill your need Lulled by your intoxication Who could say no?

BlackBird 04:53
Got a BlackBird nesting in my chest And I'm needing something ready to break Come in and pull it out Pull It Out This all of me This small of me Sink into you, becoming two The light has faded It's only now I find where you are Only slightly blinded I'm hiding now I'm tearing out Tear it out This wish that I've become And I'm dissipated This all of me This small of me Sink into you, becoming two The light has faded Quiet now (The light has faded) Sink into you (Becoming Two) I'm silent now (Deep in the dark) The light has faded This all of me This small of me Sink into you, becoming two The light has faded

Feed 04:33
And trembling in the darkness Icy hands find me And pulling me pulling me under And holding me still And into your open arms I fell Weak, weary, tender at the bottom of the well Naked and broken, you planted the seed I surrender and you feed How deep is your need? Take me, embrace me Collapsing into your mystery Feeding on my misery And into your open arms I fell And into your open arms I fell Weak, weary, tender at the bottom of the well Naked and broken, you planted the seed I surrender and you feed How deep is your need? And the echo that was me And the echo that was me And into your open arms I fell Weak, weary, tender at the bottom of the well Naked and broken, you planted the seed I surrender and you feed How deep is your need?

Burning Man 04:11
Oh my life, my love Can I be so happy? Come and dance with me Around the fire So free Never so alive as this Never so alight as this One with each other, one with the land We danced our souls to the Burning Man My life, my love, my soul, my dove My hope, my fear, my anything but real Never so alive as this Never so alight as this One with each other, one with the land We danced our souls to the Burning Man Your sky, your cloud, your light, your darkness Oh my life, my love Can I be so happy? Come and dance with me Around the fire So free Never so alive as this Never so alight as this One with each other, one with the land We danced our souls to the Burning Man

HalfLight 03:47
And the rain And the cold Circle of madness Tears and rain Racing to beat the midnight train Whisper your name Whisper your name There you are in the HalfLight Broken down I'm surrounded Watercolor drowning Your images fade All the while swimming too deep Praying the sleep Of night endless There you are in the HalfLight Partway real Slowly fading Are you there? Can you hear me? Just follow my voice. I can still feel you love... Gentle kick inside Reminds her of all she has Although left astounded Fragility so bold Grasping onto the HalfLight In her soul In this body For this body She is whole I am whole ​She is whole

Sleeping and I awaken Underneath the starry haze Floating down From this cloud Put the fire out Put the fire out Layering between the spaces Hiding in the in-between We are us on the other side This reality to be denied Separated by time and space In the fantasy relay Flip to Reverse Turn the other side In another place together If I had a way to bridge from there to now But the door has closed and I know no way out Endless nights spent waiting The chance to know your body once again Falling through these cracks created Fissures in the realm of space and time Slowly crawling towards the brink Don't awaken the now Holding onto the dream In the closet of impossible things Separated by time and space Holding on within the maze Flip to Reverse Turn the other side In another place together If I had a way to bridge from there to now But the door has closed and I know no way out In another time In another place Can't just Flip to Reverse Fold it up and put it away Inseparable, shadow from skin Bending time to space Grasping for reality's twin Flip to Reverse Turn the other side In another place together If I had a way to bridge from there to now But the door has closed Yes, the door has closed and I know no way out

Skeletons 04:18
Structures lose shape Skeletons of yesterday Time will erase Life once solid Changed To ash Soft place to land Now an empty space Shards of glass Echoes of yesterday Home and hearth That would not last Echoes of yesterday And now fade In the rearview Memories of you Mirror Reflection New life New breath Fly Goodbye... You have faded away But in this heart of mine Always a place Always, ​Anna

Labyrinth 04:51
I don't know why you keep running through this labyrinth All these walls you've created and still you're hiding And time is not on your side but your friends are Come the morning, I will be your light I will be your star I don't know why you keep crying for some broken fantasy Memories they are magicians always playing tricks on realities I know the horizon seems so distant but I promise it's not far Come the morning I will be your light I will be your star And time is not on your side but your friends are Come the morning, I will be your light And the horizon seems so distant but I promise it's not far Come the morning, I will be your light I will be your light be your star
