I was born with a curse on my head
Knowing what's right, but doing wrong instead
Sometimes I wonder if I ever have a choice
I hear the answer in your voice...
You're mine
I thought that I was a free man for so long
Now I know all this time I had it wrong
Sometimes I hear it in those desperation nights
Coming from the mouth that swallows every light
You belong to me, you know I'm right
You're mine, you're mine
Don't you forget that it is so
You're mine, you're mine
Sometimes I really feel I've broken this old spell
'Till I fall back in the arms of hell
I was born with a curse on my head
I know what's right, but choose wrong instead...

So Far

In my sleep I see you're home
I leave a note to make sure that you don't
You don't forget me
As I leave I see his coat
And I feel cold, I ask myself well where
Where does that leave me
So far, so far
I'm okay, I'm alright yeah I'm just fine
As long as you're alone
Well you're just like me
Another hand upon your thigh
A different mouth, breathing on you slow
Well you just killed me yeah
So far, so far
Oh the morning bird, she calls
And the breaking day will chase away the fog
Oh and every living ghost under every dirty fold
Little morning bird please sing your song
I can't bear another night, feels so long
Oh I know that you are there, I can feel it in the air
But I'm afraid that you are still so far...
Pretty girl, pretty girl, pretty girl you're stuck on my mind
We're stuck in time
I still feel your body warm
But you've been gone, you've been gone so long
Yeah you're gone
So far...

Flower

If I lose you now, if you go on
Like you say you will,
Will I meet you there, in that old house
Near the window sill
The sunshine, the snowfall
The changing wind
The flower, the wise tree
The land you're in.
If you speak to me about love lost
For the sake of life,
I will see your wound as a window
For the sake of light
The sunshine, the snowfall
The changing wind
The flower, the wise tree
The land you're in.

O Marigold

All across the pained sky
No disguise, no disguise at all
You see it's her natural hue,
To see her covered in blue.
All along the river wide
No surprise, no surprise at all
A bed for the sorrowful dew
A wash for the woe and the rue
You see, it's natural too,
He's blue.
O Marigold,
Don't forget your name is beautiful
O Marigold,
Don't you hide your face is beautiful.
All alone the summer sun
Shining down, shining down on you
The King has a child of his own
You see, he's not so alone
My dear, you're a child of the throne,
It's true.
O Marigold,
Don't forget your name is beautiful
O Marigold,
Don't you hide your face is beautiful
O Marigold,
Even when your days are ugly and dull
O Marigold,
Don't forget you're manifold.
All along the river wide,
Just below the pained sky,
Even in the dead of night,
Shine, shine, shine, shine...
