Track Name: Favonian
Drinking warm beer on an almost satisfactory night
it’s always night
we’re always leaving
a shadow’s spreading; it’s over
let’s stay awake ’til we get sober

'Favonian' is a word I’ve saved
’til it could mean the most
for a backseat breeze on some country’s coast
it’s a ghost now
like the spaces
we left blank

So raise your cups!
for Cambodia!
Paris!
Hong Kong!
Montreal!

Let’s remember them all!
Track Name: Cold Mountain
Up in the clouds, in the dust,
why’m I always leaving?
The night stays the same: blank,
as if I could just come back the same
Up in the clouds there’s a night, there’s a whispering
Cold Mountain,
says, “make me something,
I can’t stand to be your nightmare anymore”
But the wind won’t sift down again,
and there are no ways to mitigate the greys
without you

Out where the dusk keeps its reference to hearts,
when we’re old and
apart, in the night, could I meet you
in the dark?
I can’t be alone;
when you’re gone
your shadow’s in my heart
When you’re gone, all that’s left is where
I don’t want to be
blank
I don’t want to be
blank
Track Name: True/blue
When all that’s left of you
is bone
all that space
won’t go away
There’s something missing from the air today:
the rhythm, and dried out phrases that we used to use
There are holes too big to know
Track Name: Night's Plateau
Mist and rain and dark
been this way since the shadow came and got you:
everyday it’s cold
Here’s the coldest part:
why’ve I got this heart
if I can't ever love you?

It’s hard to be one heart
It’s hard when I can’t ever leave you
Track Name: Yellow Springs
The shadow - it’s spreading
and nothing’s ever satisfactory
but hoping something could be

Why is this place so important?
Why is everything ending so slow
and comfortably?
