i can’t find my way, i'm just diggin’ in my grave
with dirt lodged between my bones
i can’t find the time, i’m just flitting past your eyes
when i pass you by with bare feet in the street
and i don’t wanna fall asleep cause i won’t see you in my dreams
i wanna wake up in your bed with my head against your head
and we will dream away the day
on a sleepy afternoon under the moon
you’re digging your own path and i’m lost in your tracks
lonely in a rainy heaven
cause i can’t find a way to be brave
i’m up to my knees in my grave

Runaway Girl

keep a straight face
you wanted to know him, you wanted it all
you’ve run the race
you can run all you want, now just don’t run away
runaway girl
you’re a runaway girl in the bad of your bones
who cares how that made you feel
cause girl it’s over
it’s all about you now now now
pick up the pieces you crazy thing
cause you’re worth more than a bed of grey bones

Baby

baby, i spy sunshine behind your mask
i’m angry when my momma doesn’t understand
i’m a child, i’m high
sucking all the air away
i’m a child, allowed to lie
i lie on you and you don’t make a sound
the devil, he dances only in my dreams
all the evil in my body likes to celebrate my sleep
oh i’m the moon and you’re the sun
where did all your good come from?
i’ve got the body of an angel
but maybe you should look again inside

Eyes in this House
04:21
|
|||
|
i paint pink skies at midnight
and we watch the sunrise
i don’t keep time
but the walls have eyes in this house
i felt them on my skin
and when you are gone from this house
i lose it

Birds of Paradise
02:21
|
|||
|
you saw the birds of paradise, you saw so many things
healing the sick from far away
you had a daughter twice my age
i never even got your name
you said “don’t go to paradise, it’s much too strange”
i didn’t listen to my mom
she said, don’t leave the strangers for a minute
not one minute
but lilac silences and Monet skies filled the train ride
we found places in this small small world
will i see you again? i don’t know

Lonely/Lovely
04:28
|
|||
|
hello, you left me with a fuzzy brain
never been alone in this state
and i go home to paint watercolour melodies
sit and stare at the sky,
toss me into windy nights
alone, a lonely creature am i
and i go home to see myself away

Nightmare Gone to Waste
03:51
|
|||
|
stop laughing out loud, give me a parachute
and i will jump down to the rocks
don’t you try to catch me
i should keep away the flame
but it’s burning brightly red
singeing my socks away
oh the space stars skies in my blood
make me run i cannot wait
they keep me from tumbling down
another nightmare gone to waste

We Pretend
04:02
|
|||
|
we pretend we’re five years old again
embracing crackling ice and breaths of wind
we’ve caved in as the years go by
our bones have been so densified
we’ve got ashy black lips that burn to kiss
we’re tearing through castles and collecting stones
oh god i can feel it, i can feel it in my bones
there’s some kind of magic in these fences falling down
we’re hungered by the looks they give us
when they break out of our bounds
so we’re cultivating hearts and hands
to make us feel that way again
with firecracker palms and empty shoulders
we’re cultivating hearts and hands
to make us feel that way again
that funny feeling in our palms
cultivating hearts and hands
lightheartedness will come again to your sleepy eyelids

Head in the Clouds
03:40
|
|||
|
pick up the pace, i'm melting
who put stranger stars in your eyes?
find a surprise, you're not boring
someone new to recognize
put your shoes back on
we won't be swimming tonight
my head's in the clouds
every word's a mumble in your mouth
and i see moonlight in my eyes
the forest is green and we're crashing
through trees and beaches in the night
find some starlight
it's much too cold to swim out now

i can’t find my way, i'm just diggin’ in my grave
with dirt lodged between my bones

i wanna wake up in your bed with my head against your head
and we will dream away the day
on a sleepy afternoon under the moon
you’re digging your own path and i’m lost in your tracks
lonely in a rainy heaven

Cold Rooms (outro)
03:14
|
|||
|
gradient skies are melting
into cold rooms, fading into grey blue lines down my ripped tights
absorbed a rainbow sort of light
we are ghostly suspensions
we breathe sour breath
aching, and loving
sore, and soaring
strawberry sores, grass in our lungs
we are dirty bodies,
wet paper eyelids, empty stomachs,
and goosebump skin
we finish writing and
we are hungry and
we leave the cold rooms empty

I fell in love with every song Hannah B. (Luna Li) has made. There are some I hope she re-releases because the live versions have put so much more energy into the songs that they have become reimagined versions in such slight but mind bending new ways. I hope to hear “Nightmare Gone To Waste” re-released with the solo from the live show. That short video snip I saw in IG gave me life. I may have to plan a trip to Canada to catch a show because they look visually stunning.
