TRACK LIST

eiffel: plain sailing weather / frank turner

just give me one fine day of plain sailing weather and i can fuck up anything, anything it was a wonderful life when we were together and now i've fucked up every little god damn thing i've been skirting round the rim of doing something brave and not just standing but jumping in of making circles into squares, of laying down the bare facts like a burden i can't bear and i can almost find the words but i can see the way you'd fold your hands speak my name like a curse upon your pretty lips the pressured white behind your fingertips and when you see me for all that i am i couldn't make mistakes to make a difference anymore i'd throw myself down on my knees, in your hands and beg you for forgiveness for my fuckups and my faults and maybe you'd relent, release some hope for our forever lift up your precious hands and then bring yours and mine together so give me one fine day of plain sailing weather

minkowski: brother, sister / beta radio

in the chair by the window there i write my will on the windowsill and all i leave is for my family with whom i share my blood i share my name and love remember me when you're in the promised land no recompense forsaking all i've earned forsaking self-defense when time and space are finally parting ways the full eclipse of earth and my near ten-thousand days the new trombone, all rise, the kingdom come the stars outshine the moon and the moon points to the sun and when i fall, i fall in you all stars in skies, they shine on you

hera: make me a robot / tessa violet

i don't wanna be a person any more, i'm done i don't wanna make mistakes any more, he's won i'm too old to change take my heart, no new start, please just let me fall apart you may say it's strange but i quit, guess that's it, for a human i'm unfit i don't want to have to fight any more, i'm tired i don't want to have to feel any more, uninspired i am too worn out broken down, on the ground, i'm too shy to make a sound all i have is doubt i don't care, you can stare, cause a human can't compare

hilbert: arsonist’s lullabye / hozier

when i was a child i heard voices some would sing and some would scream you soon find you have few choices i learned the voices died with me when i was a man i thought it ended when i knew love's perfect ache but my peace has always depended on all the ashes in my wake all you have is your fire and the place you need to reach don't you ever tame your demons but always keep 'em on a leash

lovelace: marked man / mieka pauley

i will close my eyes, then three two one: the guilty hide, the guilty run i'll make you fly til the day i'm done know that i watch every thing you do and hope that i never stop watching you the day i stop is the day i'm through if you search your soul and it sets you free you're all contrite like you oughta be it might get you off, get you right with god but you'll never be right with me. you're a marked man, brother, a marked man, hey get right down on your knees and pray thank your lord i don't have my way you're a marked man, brother, you're a marked man

jacobi: i’ll be good / jaymes young

i thought i saw the devil this morning looking in the mirror, drop of rum on my tongue with the warning to help me see myself clearer i never meant to start a fire i never meant to make you bleed i'll be a better man today my past has tasted bitter for years now so i wield an iron fist grace is just weakness, or so i've been told i've been cold, i've been merciless but the blood on my hands scares me to death maybe i'm waking up today i'll be good, i'll be good and i'll love the world like i should yeah, i'll be good, i'll be good for all of the times that i never could

maxwell: evelyn / kim tillman & silent films

these lofty thoughts are killing me preoccupied by what i could be i get so high on my ideals don't cut me down but you can meet me where i land i've left the day in pursuit of lucid dreams now i drive for days to make my way back to those old familiar places the human voices wake us and we drown, and we drown seductive and impeccable abuse you do it to yourself, i bet you know you do i love you 'cause i do it to you too

kepler: god’s gonna cut you down / johnny cash

well my goodness gracious, let me tell you the news my head's been wet with the midnight dew i've been down on bended knee talkin' to the man from galilee he spoke to me with a voice so sweet i thought i heard the shuffle of angels' feet he called my name and my heart stood still when he said john, go do my will go tell that long-tongued liar go and tell that midnight rider tell the rambler, the gambler, the backbiter tell 'em that god's gonna cut 'em down
