The World Is Everything Tour Sampler

  1. The World Is Everything

    The world is everything
    The world is everything
    And I move close
    But you move closer
    And out of the spring
    And into the summer
    And out of the dark
    Into the blessing of others
    The table of goods
    The bright bolt of lightning
    And she loved him there once
    But she's still not through fighting

    And you can't swallow it
    But you can't spit it out
    It's there in her hair
    It's coming out of her eyes
    To taste her is bitter
    But the world is alive
    And the world is everything
    The world is everything
    The world is everything
    The world is everything

  2. Sleepwalkers

    Your poetry describing me
    It doesn't come close
    You work the handle
    You smear and turn
    But you come no closer to meaning

    It's your vanity
    That's obvious
    It embarrasses
    Those that adore you
    But who's gonna talk
    Oh how it'll hurt
    You were always unstable
    But you've gotten worse

    You looked into mirrors
    Where death was at work
    Of that you were certain
    But it was all surface
    And surface is numb

    Something to wake ups
    From cultural slumbers
    You fucking sleepwalkers
    Go on and sleep

    Go on and sleep

    This is tomorrow
    The underglimmering
    And everything that dies
    The underglimmering

    Something to wake ups
    From cultural slumbers
    You fucking sleepwalkers
    Go on and sleep

    Something to wake ups
    From cultural slumbers
    You fucking sleepwalkers
    Go on and sleep

    And you hang behind me
    On the ladder of my spine
