I’ve spent my whole life dreaming
I’ve spent my whole life reaching
Teach me how to be an oxen
Steadfast in the rice field
Teach me how to be a spider
Diligent in her corner
I’ve spent my whole life dreaming
I’ve spent my whole life reaching
Maybe I could fly to a new haven
Watching clouds stretch across like angel carpet
Maybe I could dive into the ocean
One day I’ll swim in bliss out in the open
I’ve spent my whole life dreaming
And soon that dream will catch up to me
When I find myself sitting in my kitchen, gently smiling

Bought a car, packed my things
Gonna drive to Alice Springs
Near my heart, is a drought
Something strange that I can’t figure out
I’ve had it hard, but I’ve had it good
The greatest pain is to be misunderstood
I feel alone but I feel free
An Epiphany at 23
Close my palms, around a stone
Beg to sea to tell me all she knows
You can sleep with anyone you please
But can you sit in water with me ?
I’ve had it hard, but I’ve had it good
The greatest pain is to be misunderstood
I feel alone but I feel free
An Epiphany at 23
I’ve had it hard, but I’ve had it good
The greatest pain is to be misunderstood
I feel alone but I feel free
An Epiphany at 23
Bought a car, packed my things
Gonna drive to Alice Springs …

I’d like to stay just for a bit
Maybe over the summer, then call quits
I know you like a lover from a past life
I’m feeling alone and reckless tonight
Keep me safe on your streets
Don’t make a stupid girl out of me
Shining … Shining
Soho pavements painted neon,
Under this lighting — you’ve decided you still like me
Kiss me … I’m crying
I’m not sad it’s just this feeling
A body in a new city
A python seeking heat
Crack my skull and read my mind
I dare you to like what you will find
Girls that glitter in the night
See my face reflected in your eyes
Heartache under my clothes
Headache from his smoke
Last kiss … Last kiss
Told myself: “Don’t get attached”
No, ice queen — melted when you ran your finger down my back
Ellipsis … Ellipsis
Everything I say runs off
To you, I never want to end in a full stop

Shining across the pacific
I’m in my car
Driving to my parents' house
How’s LA ?
I’ve never been
Nor am I interested
It seems nice
But suffocating
Would that be wrong of me deduce ?
I’m just another girl who thinks she knows you
Superstar
You mentioned this was your favourite song
I listen to
feel close to you
Seventeen
Heartbreaker on the silver screen
I miss that ache
You left in me
Would that be sad of me to reveal ?
I’m just another girl in love with an ideal
Superstar ...
Superstar ...
Superstar ...
Superstar ...
Superstar
Shining across the pacific
I’m in my car
Driving to my parents' house

In heaven, everything is fine
In heaven, everything is fine
In heaven, everything is fine
You've got your good things
And I've got mine
In heaven, everything is fine
In heaven, everything is fine
In heaven, everything is fine
You've got your good things
And you've got mine

Sylvia, make something of your life babe
Hungry girl, devoted to the rhyme babe
Smell of sweet fig rotting under the Tuscan sun
Take a bite before the seasons over and done
Eat the anger, feed the fire
There is beauty somewhere in a memory
Put on your shoes girl, let’s go dancing
If you chose to live a beautiful life, in spite, you win
Sylvia, my will to live now is so strong
Hungry girl, been starving now for so long
I don’t know peace, though I’m trying to start to believe
This world is not an oyster for pearls like you or me
Eat the anger, feed the fire
There is beauty somewhere in a memory
Put on your shoes girl, let’s go dancing
If you chose to live a beautiful life, in spite, you win
Broad shouldered baby
Wise woman attitude
I’ve spent the last year
Picking at the same scab
Pushing in the same bruise
Broad shouldered baby
Wise woman attitude
I’ve spent the last year
Picking at the same scab
Pushing in the same bruise
Sylvia, make something of your life babe

It is not enough to be in love, but to stay in love
Nothing but devotion, to have nothing but
One cell travelling through the universe
Zygote travelling to the uterus
I’ve come this far to forget and to relearn
But what I’ve learned is: all I know is senseless
One cell travelling through the universe
Zygote travelling to the uterus
Crossing realms, making it to the other side
Crossing realms, making something of this life
I could watch those surfers forever
Poetry in motion
Nothing but devotion
I could watch those climbers forever
Limestone God, like meditation
Nothing but devotion
Nothing but devotion
Nothing but devotion
Who am I without you
But a costume
Hung up in the closet after a long day
Never in my life have I known something
This close what some call truth
Or faith
