Starlight Conspiracy
Song Lyrics
“Anomaly”
Drown me with insolence
but sooth me with hot tea
upon me you placed a hand
Nourish this with what you learn
A yearning for the road
Your feet will mark the boundary
I lie and wait with you
Now see the final hour
A journey deep inside of me
this place won’t help you now
“Big
Beautiful Drive-In”
Laugh at me then go away
Smile at me then spend the day
look for the moon in outer space
look for the fool who took his place
A house asleep, eyes at rest
sneaking out at your request
a rendezvous in quick disguise
i need your secrets, tell me lies
Words don’t fall off my tongue
to censor you and what you’ve done
so picture perfect, trapped in time
manipulate me, I don’t mind
Bring a blanket, it’s cold outside
Next time I won’t run and hide
“Calgon”
A sleepless ocean crashed in and out
A mindless story, figure it out
A weightless feeling, floating around
A timeless season, so what’s the point?
Nobody said I had to
You know I really want you
Nobody said I had to
No one but you
I’ve fallen far too deep now
I told the truth
An ancient chinese secret
I followed you
“Despite the
Rain”
Despite the rain, you drove away
I feel low down, below the ground
I feel low down
Sometimes I find a loaded gun for everyone
On the street, run away
My house has run down
I depend on you
My hands are dead cold
I’m a world away
“Don’t
Leave the Stage”
She lost and fell behind them
no doubt was left for her to overhear
a sheltered place, avoid the dark
light the match, see the spark
Small hands, nowhere to put them
his voice spoke about a million subtle things
no treasure there, it vanished in the air
trade in the world and start again
Small parts use your act, don’t leave the stage
step back and into place see years ahead
fake tears and no remorse, she laughed instead
"The Early
Hours”
All alone now, think straight
Day goes, night glows
Through my window, rush in
Moon shine, drink wine
Whisper, whisper
Hello to me
All alone now...
...with me
Hear my story, agree
Relate, sleep late
Listen closely and see
This time you’re mine
“Earth
Prime”
Said uncle, your face is green
try not to look at the scene
said uncle, your face is green
I can see the place the time of day
your ship will sail and leave the bay
your plane departs and right on time
the more you leave the more you stay
My sister she sang to me
her voice keeps me company
my sister she sang to me
minds on fire bleed desire
“Empty”
Find new words all the time
No more to say, empty mind
Drifting farther, distance in between
Mistakes larger, somewhere in a dream
looked so painful
Move on down, to the edge
cruise your soul, lose your head
“Just
Heavier Words”
Coil around, wander the fear
Sleep, dream of me
stay up too late
Tell why
time doesn’t wait
Look deep inside
find solitude
Long day
nights lonely shame
All around there’s water, deep blue
If I dive down under, find you
and you tell me stories, not true
“She Waits”
I know she goes and I know to wait for
Lost on the road, nobody will find her
drive into town and wait for the answer
In silence she follows me, in silence she follows
Pretend that there is a future
drifted around and swallowed the poison
waited a while, became a new person
In silence she follows me, in silence she follows
Choose a way, a path to change
a mind to waste, and live again
don’t stay, I lie awake
and still remain lost for words
She goes and I know to wait for
Lost on the road, nobody will find her
“Switching
Lines”
I took the train today
I went all the way
I heard the conductor say
this word to me
...scream
Trick is to stand in line
not switch a thousand times
traffic lights will make you blind
if you stare too long
...scream
"Wind Chill"
Freeze and shine
You climbed into my window
and took the light from me
you sat outside my window
and still you couldn’t see
when the wind blows, wild and free
when the wind blows, time to leave
Waiting in the canyon
you bled and you deceive
way inside the canyon
you played your final scene
I had to reach back inside my dreams
I had to reach back inside of me
Stand and leave, wave to me
Forget to write, I’m alright
Stand and leave, wave to me
