1. Beautiful Teeth
Beautiful teeth like wolves’
your smile makes the rabbits run
All hail the moon
your neck, it’s light on the water
on the water
on the water
Your broad chest and the space between your breasts
softly, the wolves are sleeping
Your broad chest and the space between your breasts
softly, the wolves are sleeping
Beautiful teeth like wolves’
Your smile makes the rabbits run
All hail the moon
Your neck, it’s light on the water
on the water
on the water

2.I Can’t See You
I can’t see you, I’m not going tonight
Oh run away run away run away run away
And hide
Oh run away run away run away with me tonight
I can’t see you, I’m not going tonight
Oh run away run away run away run away
And hide
Oh run away run away run away with me tonight
I know a place where we can go
we both know very well
I know the dark place that we both do go
we both know very well
I can’t see you, I’m not going tonight
Oh run away run away run away
And hide
Oh run away run away run away with me tonight
Lean a little closer to me dear
I can almost breathe when you are near
Lean a little closer to me dear
I can almost breathe you in

3. Sea Change
Helena walks the city streets
and her playlist guides her feet
from Neptune to the beach
Serve them coffee, bring them tea
thinking of nothing, and everything
nothing of him can now remain
but doth suffer a sea change
Sea change sea change sea change
From where you thought you’d be
Nothing is fixed in stone
see how below here how they roll
roll the bones and now the tide
bring you back to where you felt alive
Sea change sea change sea change

4.Tarot Card
This is a new day
and I tuck your tarot card away
Three of Wands , you said it was arbitrary
didn’t mean anything
but you said a lot of things
Speaking in riddles
so no one could understand you
making complicated
what was really so easy
I’ll tell you your future
I’ll tell you your future
I’ll tell you your future
but it’s far too lonely
This is a new day
and I tuck your tarot card away
This is a new day, a new day
Like a bird from the snare of the fowler
Like a beast from the hand of the hunter
Like a bird from the snare of the fowler
Free yourself

5.Fair Warning
If I sing my song through the trees you might
hear me, fair warning
Little lonesome love, it has been awhile I know
Don’t you know the most beautiful things
that crawl or fly are full of poison
I have eyes on my back so it seems
I am watching
Her Monarch wings are lovely and bright
so you know, she won’t taste nice
He sings his song through the trees
and it seems he is lonely
Don’t you know the most beautiful things
give fair warning
they are full of poison
Don’t you know the most beautiful things
give fair warning
Don’t you know the most beautiful things
give fair warning
they are full of poison

7.November Man
November man, with your coat of black
flap your wings against the ghost
grey sky
Sing your song of November
naked trees and the promise of ice
overnight
There’s no warm fire
for you, or me
Meet me there
grey as a ghost
the sky where you and I fly by
Each and the other
black coats and wings
Hear my song of November
You’ll never know
you’ll never know
you’ll never know
my name
You’ll never know
you’ll never know
you’ll never know
my name

9.Elemental Child
Elemental child, made up of sun and wind
I see the tree of you whipped and bend
all in an instant then your face
turns pensive and sad
‘til it picks up again, like the wind
Elemental child
tears fall to earth in rain
spring from the ground again
changed and unchanging
Constantly blustering
curses and philosophy
it is a tempest and I
I am a kite

11. I Remember Everything
Awaken in the morning
in the still and solitary light
to stand beside your shadow
from a dream I had last night
You return and talk to me
we’re walking like we used to do
How can I shake you off this way?
I remember everything
How wrong can one woman be
or how lost and how lonely
Tell me you don’t feel any pain
I remember everything
Well, I miss the thoughts that I used to think
and you walking beside me
Say you were never my friend
I remember everything

12. Our Lady of the Highway
Oh , Our Lady of the Highway
won’t you lend me some Grace
I can’t close my eyes
or I’ll see his pretty face
I’d get drunk on some whiskey
but I can’t stand the taste
Oh Our Lady of the Highway
Take me far away from here
Oh , Our Lady of the Highway
Won’t you ease my head
He lay down the sunset
when he lay back in that bed
and oh my skies
my skies went gold, pink and red
Farewell
is what I have left
now all I have left is farewell
Farewell
Oh , Our Lady of the Highway
won’t you lend me some Grace
I can’t close my eyes
or I’ll see his pretty face, such a pretty face
I get drunk on some whiskey
but I can’t stand the taste
Oh Our Lady of the Highway
Take me far away from here

highest compliment I could hand down to this brilliant artist."- Paste Magazine
