North 03:56
o little compass, say that it ain't so is that the way that I must go? one hundred days of indelible night till at last he is in my sights I know he's got best intentions at heart but a journey like this, where do I start? and I know he's got best intentions in mind but it'd be nice to know what I'm trying to find do I just keep going north? keep going north? straight and true the safest way to you instead of turn, turn, turn some more so I’ll just keep going north and I've never been so hopelessly lost my ignorance comes to such a cost if I'm gonna lose something I'll be damned if it's you the price I pay for everything I do and I know he's got best intentions at heart but a journey like this, where do I start? and I know he's got best intentions in mind but it'd be nice to know what I'm trying to find do I just keep going north? keep going north? straight and true, the safest way to you instead of turn, turn, turn some more so I’ll just keep going north ~ and I know he's got best intentions at heart but a journey like this, where do I start? and I know he's got best intentions in mind but it'd be nice to know what I'm trying to find do I just keep going north? keep going north straight and true, the safest way to you instead of turn, turn, turn some more so I’ll just keep going north

close as skin and bone distant as horizons so please don’t walk me home and I’m letting my judgement get clouded no point in concealing the way I’m feeling guess I better get healing cause I’m in trouble and doesn’t it show and doesn’t it show I’m in trouble and everybody knows close as ink and paper but you’re a pole and I’m the equator so imma catch a break and disappear ‘cause anywhere is better than right here and I’m letting my judgement get clouded oo, I can’t help it no point in concealing the way I’m feeling guess I better get healing cause I’m in trouble and doesn’t it show and doesn’t it show I’m in trouble and everybody knows so file me under missing persons ‘cause I’m going away couldn’t possibly stay couldn’t possibly explain, explain why I’m in trouble I’m in trouble I’m in trouble and doesn’t it show? and doesn’t it show and everybody knows and everybody knows and doesn’t it show? and doesn’t it show and everybody knows and everybody knows that we’re close

Erase Me 03:12
memories don't change hands will always feel the same I'm not convinced forwards is back and we didn't really mean all that still, your prints are on my skin like tea & tear stained porcelain I wish you'd see it from my side the things I didn't get to decide but if you insist, and I don't have a say in this hurry up and hit the reset switch erase me, block me out erase me, let me down finger tips stained with rust darling, what becomes of us? is this really for my own good? I fail to see any proof and you're convinced it's for the best convinced that this will hurt much less but like a broken finger trap for me, there was no turning back but if you insist, and I don't have a say in this hurry up and hit the reset switch erase me, block me out erase me, honey would you let me down? let me down erase me, block me out erase me, honey would you let me down? let me down cause I never wanted you at all we never wanted nothing more you never asked for any less no one's as special as they'd like to guess and it's borderline unfair what right have you to leave me here? you're in my head every day you're the source of my decay but whatever if it makes you feel better you'll always have the final word I'll always be another girl but whatever if it makes you feel better you'll always have the final word there'll always be another girl so erase me, block me out erase me, let me down

Hide 03:05
I’m gonna knit a new skin one that fits just right ‘cause I’m tired of troubles getting in I want to stay warm tonight and towers and tears must fall suns and hopes, they must rise and every mountain has its blanket of snow so why don’t I? I’m gonna knit a new skin one that fits just right so good I could be seen dead in it and I wouldn’t mind, wouldn’t mind and when they come and ask for alterations of their own designs well I’ll tell them, I am what I am I’m nothing but hide I made a living from pushing needles in my skin watch me start to spin singing songs that haven’t been written haven’t been written, mmm so spill my blood, feel my love I’ll knit myself back up exposure is the drug and it’s kicking in I’m gonna knit a new skin when I get the time But until then, I am what I am I’m nothing but hide

Westminster 02:10
Haberdasher street Shoreditch on the A520 I think I saw you On Columbia Road heading eastwards there’s a park on the corner I think I saw you ‘cause I’m the one I’m the one if it’s anyone I’m the one I’m the one I’m the one if it’s anyone if it’s anyone if it’s anyone if it’s anyone where did you land next, was it Mayfair? down by the river, an embankment, a square I think I saw you in a church in a train station somewhere loud somewhere waiting for me or to cross the street? ‘cause I’m the one I’m the one if it’s anyone I’m the one I’m the one I’m the one if it’s anyone I’m the one I’m the one I’m the one if it’s anyone if it’s anyone I’m the one I’m the one if it’s anyone if it’s anyone if it’s anyone, if it’s anyone
