the wolves among the shadow
came to watch your wind blow
through the ballroom hall
the gravity is your prey
fightin' what the kings say
stand or lose it all
'cause they knew knew they
would see you you, hey
so they laughed, with a mask and a glass
but i knew knew i
would see you you high,
in the air, with a flair, kicking ass
pirate
pirate
brash and loud
wanna make a date
daring fate to sound
pirate
pirate
bright and proud,
gimme just a night
takin' titans down with you
dressin' up with dyed roots
bandanas and black boots
hey, you clean up well
got ya in my left hand
roses in my right and
let's go give 'em hell
'cause a flame, flame show
won't be tame tame, no
and i ache, up awake to ignite
so i'll storm like the sea
for the warm and the free
fuck your war, i'm here for the starlight
[chorus]
woah oh oh
do you wanna let go
wanna let go, wanna let go, oh
x3
woah oh oh
'cause i wanna let go
i wanna let go, la la let's go, oh
hey scarlet!
hey spirit!
hey pirate!
[chorus x2]

Where We'll Go
03:45

ever have an emotion
like you woke in the ocean
under waves
of devotion motion
cause she hits like a rocket
when the wind came a-knockin'
hurricanes
she had walked in, rockin'
eyes of ice in the sunshine
in the grass like a landmine,
take a sip;
she's a red wine alive
we were...
kickin' rocks on a turnpike
reachin' up to the moonlight,
she's a trip
and the right ride, on time
and when the sun goes down
we'll be lightin' up the town
up late, darin' fate, just to know
Take a bow
Tell me now
How you did that feat
Ya made my heart beat
Gunnin' on a glow
Just to know
Woah oh oh
Do you dance
Take a chance
With a one two three
With just you and me
Let the fire blow
Just to know
Just to know
Where we'll go
make a bed by the river,
summer night came to give her
stars for eyes
with a killer shimmer
with a sense of direction
and a sundress impression
scarlet skies
come progress that question
and you'll ask me if i'm headed home
or up to roam
or up to roam
and i'll tell ya that i am doin' fine
just fine
'cause i know that yeah, i'm ever prone
to walk alone
to walk alone
but i'm diggin' your grin here by my side
and when the sun goes down
we'll be lightin' up the town
up late, darin' fate, just to know
[chorus]
take, take, take a bow
take, take, take a bow
take, take, take a bow
come along now we can bring it back in, ooh!
[chorus x2]
Just to know
Where we'll go

Moans On Loan

gimme gimme somethin' to hold onto
are your smoke eyes a disguise
'cause i never never thought i'd ever see you
just the embers hot with lies
the blood
runs like a river
runs like a river
run me to the ground
and the wound's gettin' bigger
wound's gettin' bigger
wantin' me around
such a sweet plea
come and meet me
i'm the taste you're here to crave
are ya hollow
come and follow
vicious hips into a grave
then a great gust
turned her to dust
and she scattered to the air
all alone then
locked in love then
all alone again out there
ya tell me tell me that you're in a grand prix
and that i'm a trophy goal
now you're burnin' all my bridges to keep me
with the romance of your coal
the blood
runs like a river
runs like a river
run me to the ground
and the wound's gettin' bigger
wound's gettin' bigger
wantin' me around
i'm not gonna drown, not gonna drown now
[chorus]
moans on loan
moans on loan
better pack your bags i'm not your home
or prize to chase, your chance is blown
moans on loan
moans on loan
go and find a seat i'm not your throne
have you ever tried life on your own?
[chorus]
and i'll breathe breathe breathe
and breathe out fucking free

Stars That Look Like You
04:14

in the july heat
i set my cold feet
out in search of truth
tracin' a freeway
she came up to say,
can i walk with you
she confided that
her heart could attack...
i should really go
it was october
if god could know her,
he'd mistake her dress for snow
every year
i wait here
aloft on the wheel
and just for
a flash we're
up high like it's real
the shore lights
were so bright
but too soon, they leave
when we die
could goodbye
mean stay here with me
she loved the stories
and stayed up for me
when i couldn't sleep
she sighed, you're crazy,
but you amaze me
in february
and i know what i felt
and when the snow melts
will you marry me?
[chorus]
hey let's go wavin'
from high off the flowers
i'll help you stop aching
before april showers
i'll sing like you like, dear
just you and i, here
and a ferris wheel tune
let me freeze time,
i want this every day
i'm so happy you're mine
i promise you i'll stay...
then i felt her pulse leaving
oh god, please keep breathing
heart attacked, her eyes had closed
and this time of year, now...
i've got nothin' down there
it's big but it's lonely;
the prettiest cold air
with pages lit for me,
i'm writing a story
called "stars that look like you"
[chorus]
and so on a night like this
i cannot fight this
feeling that you're here
sleepless with me, dear
whereever you are
it's never too far
if you fear you'll float off
come take a load off,
rose

Mistress Magic

let's go
i live for the prestos
the odds and the ends
with a flair
she rode down
a cloud to a small town
a bombshell so shy
in the air
show me your thunder
i'll show ya a flash
show me your ropes and
i'll turn 'em to ash
my nature
and my fate sure
have timed it with her
mistress magic,
you'll do the trick
come in closer
turn all the lights down
i'll show you around
strikin' my chords
with burning swords
i can swallow
we'll put on a show
dance with me real slow
stage right
luck is pickin' a fight
with spells
dangerous as they come
'cause you brew
a ghost pepper voodoo
but baby,
that's called foreplay where i'm from
your touch is a spice
let me turn up the heat
ya spin with the wind
can ya keep up with me
it's a duet
i'll see to it
that you are movin'
step step step!
mistress magic,
you'll do the trick
come in closer
turn all the lights down
i'll show you around
strikin' my chords
with burning swords
i can swallow
we'll put on a show
dance with me real slow
da da da
da da da da da
i'll turn down time
wanna take a ride
da da da
da da da da da
the room's a stage
and i'll make you mine
da da da
da da da da da
[chorus]
follow my lead, now
i'll show you just how
to be quick
like magic
won't quit 'till you give me a "wow"
