Familiar

Agnes Obel

[ ... Lyrics ... ]

Can you walk on the water if I, you and I?
Because your blood’s running cold outside the familiar true to life
Can you walk on the water if I, you and I?
Or keep your eyes on the road and live in the familiar without you and I
It glows with gates of gold to true life

For our love is a ghost that the others can’t see
It’s a danger
Every shade of us you fade down to keep
them in the dark on who we are
(Oh what you do to me)
This love is gonna be the death of me
It’s a danger
Cause our love is a ghost that the others can’t see

We took a walk to the summit at night, you and I
To burn a hole in the old grip of the familiar true to life
And the dark was opening wide, do or die
Under a mask of vermillion ruling eyes

And our love is a ghost that the others can’t see
It’s a danger
Every shade of us you fade down to keep
them in the dark on who we are
(Oh what you do to me)
Gonna be the death of me
It’s a danger
Cause our love is a ghost that the others can’t see

Patchwork

Passenger

[ ... Lyrics ... ]

You go your way, I’ll go my way
You take the stars, I’ll keep the moon
I’ll go the coast road, you take the highway
And I’ll see you soon

You watch the sunrise, I’ll chase the sunset
You drink the water, I’ll drink the wine
You run like red rum, I’ll follow your breadcrumbs
And I won’t be far behind

For our lines will always cross like patchwork on a quilt
You know nothing’s ever lost, it’s all kept somewhere
And these stones are heavy, but look at everything we’ve built
Oh, and when we’re ready, we’ll weave another square
Of our patchwork quilt

So go quickly and nimble
Needle and thimble
You stitch for every day
Go weave your thread through cotton and cloth
I will do the same

And if you find that you fall out of time
And your fabric starts to fray
Just know that everything passes in time
Nothing stays the same

But our lines will always cross like patchwork on a quilt
You know nothing’s ever lost, it’s all kept somewhere
And these stones are heavy, but look at everything we built
Oh and when we’re ready, we’ll weave another square
Of our patchwork quilt

Bones

Low Roar

[ ... Lyrics ... ]

First of March, it’s clear to me
It’s something that’s uncomforting
Your body has a way with me
But I’m exactly where I wanna be
But I’m a long way from home

I know your voice, I know your face
This is something I cannot replace
Give me hope and give me doubt
Well I loved you then but I don’t love you now
I’m a long way from home

‚Cause we’re a long way from home

No listen now, don’t walk away
I’ve got nothing more to say
Can you see it in my dying face
You’re acting like I care
Now is there anything that I can do
If there was would we be singing
‚Cause, you’re a part of me and I’m a part of you
