From their MySpace page…

In all seriousness, after an extended hiatus (of about a year and a half) we have decided to call it quits as haste. This has been one of the most amazing experiences of our lives but we have all come to the point where it is time to move on. A simple thank you does not express the gratitude we feel for everyone who has supported us over the years.

Man, why does everything I like end up leaving?

I choose to speak until I have no need to run anymore.

The city slips away too soon
Tonight she’s wide awake
Making small talk with Mr. Moon
Singing louder than the rain
On nights like these she can be herself

She forgets I’m there but it’s just as well
I always feel like I’m by myself
And she never will, oh never will

She says she hates the fact that men can see
She wants to tear the eyes out of everything

What makes her feel the way she feels
Like everything is nothing real
What makes her see the things she sees
Like everything that’s wrong with me
I guess I should stop trying to figure her out
I should know by now that I’m not allowed
Now I know this is not allowed
If I want to keep her comin ’round

She says she hates the fact that men can see
She wants to tear the eyes out of every living thing
Oh God! I grin

Does that include me…Does that include

She hides her reflecton with pictures from magazines
She gets so angry when I don’t see what she sees
But if I’m supposed to sit and watch her tear herself apart
Then maybe I was wrong, she never really knew me at all…

Hello, Hello did you find your self-esteem
Should I suppose that he’s giving you what you need
And so it goes and slowly I begin to breathe
Hello, Hello, Hello I’m so sorry it wasn’t me
I ‘m so sorry it wasn’t me

The city slips away too soon
Tonight she’s wide awake
Making small talk with Mr. Moon
He listens to everything she says
And he doesn’t try to understand
Never expects to be let in
He just hangs on every word
That comes from the mouth
Of this little girl.

Been here before
Though there’s something in the air this time
Now I wanna give away what I’ve taken back
Run away with you toward the night

A thousand names.
Though there’s something in me cannot smile,
don’t wanna spend the day retracing steps.
Run away with you toward the light.

I can’t stay long in the morning.
Another one went wrong
it’s ok now that you’re gone.
Only in your eyes a sudden need
I sympathize.

A diamond daze
A thousand strands of sunlight in her eyes.
Now I wanna give away what I’ve taken back.
Step away with you toward the night.

Only in your eyes a sudden need denied
I empathize.
it’s ok now that you’re gone
Hurry up and sleep,
to the night you go.

Well I had a dream
I stood beneath an orange sky
Yes I had a dream
I stood beneath an orange sky
With my brother standing by
With my brother standing by
I said Brother, you know you know
It’s a long road we’ve been walking on
Brother you know it is you know it is
Such a long road we’ve been walking on

And I had a dream
I stood beneath an orange sky
With my sister standing by
With my sister standing by
I said Sister, here is what I know now
Here is what I know now
Goes like this..
In your love, my salvation lies
In your love, my salvation lies
In your love, my salvation lies
In your love, in your love, in your love

But sister you know I’m so weary
And you know sister
My hearts been broken
Sometimes, sometimes
My mind is too strong to carry on
Too strong to carry on

When I am alone
When I’ve thrown off the weight of this crazy stone
When I’ve lost all care for the things I own
That’s when I miss you, that’s when I miss you, that’s when I miss you
You who are my home
You who are my home
And here is what I know now
Here is what I know now
Goes like this..
In your love, my salvation lies
In your love, my salvation lies
In your love, my salvation lies
In your love, my salvation lies
In your love, my salvation lies
In your love, my salvation lies
In your love, my salvation lies
In your love, in your love, in your love

Well I had a dream
I stood beneath an orange sky
Yes I had a dream
I stood beneath an orange sky
With my brother and my sister standing by
With my brother and my sister standing by
With my brother and my sister standing by

Hot Water Music - She Takes It So Well

I’ve spent lifetimes waiting. let thousands go to wherever’s needed
Heard the secrets told, and she takes it so well,
and she drinks it with no sugar or tears, and the door is closed.
My throat is bleeding and all these wants have burned,
and I have only turned only fell right through.
And she takes it so well, like this never was.
Like never problems, never solutions.

Posted for a friend of mine, they were requesting the lyrics… (No, this is not a dedication to anyone)

I’ll take Sunday night with a blanket over this old, dark house.
An occasional ruffle, but nothing like you or even this memory of you.
Do you save our pictures like I do?
Home is where you die.
We we’re like a lullaby.
You hit like a hammer now.
You used to lean into me.
Now you stand away.
Those wheels just push right by now.
Just a few feet from my life.
If I leaned into their mess.
I’d see you in hell. See you in hell.
You looked straight at me,
then laughed and said so honestly,
“You’re so dead now.”
As I thought to myself, “Is that really true?”
Because I killed you in my head. You can too.
There’s no second chance.

You’re a few years overdue.
I spent them waiting here for you.
Now your charity’s refused,
I can’t name a penance for abuse.

Twenty four years overdue,
what kind of role model are you?
Very least learn not to do,
I think I might be over you.

Do hope I won’t
Learn to make
The same mistakes,
That you would
Make me aware
That only fear,
My only hope,
Is letting go.

Went on a limb for you,
Capsized when I turned twenty two.
Did it burn as bad for you?
No bottle serves to soothe my wounds.

Do hope I won’t
Learn to make
The same mistakes,
That you would
Make me aware
That only fear,
My only hope,
Is letting go.
My only hope
Is letting go.

You’re a few years overdue.
I spent them waiting here for you.

As long as there is still breath
Left in your body, friend
Just move
You’ll sleep some other day
Some other time
Some other place
Just pray that your hands don’t break
We walk with hard hearts and sharper tongues
The price we paid
Paid in strength.
