*** Zola Jesus - Night

It's getting late
It's getting dark
In the end of the night
I can feel your warm
Come up close
Close to me
Cause in the end of the night
I can feel your breathe

Don't be afraid
Don't be alive
In the end of the night
You're in my arms
I'm on my bed
My bed is
But in the end of the night
We rest our bones

So don't you worry
Just rest your head
Cause in the end of the night
We'll be together again
You don't need to worry
I'll make your bed
And in the end of the night
I will hold your hand

So come close
Close to me
And I'll come closer to you
Cause in the end of the night
When all we have
Yes in the end of the night
When I can be with you

*** I Can't Stand

It's not easy to fall in love
But if you're lucky you just might find someone
So don't let it get you down
Cause in the end, you're only one

I can't stand to see you this way
It's gonna be alright

It's not easy to let it all go
But once in a while it's good for your soul
So don't let it get you down
Cause in the end, you're on your own

I can't stand to see you this way
It's gonna be alright

*** Run Me Out

Run
Me
Out
Again

You know that I'm tired
You know that I'm ill
But it don't matter 'cos
I know that you will

*** I'm Not Going Anywhere

I'm not going anywhere; I have way too much to lose
Even though I'm killing myself,
It's no indication I won't come through
Don't go making plans to fill my absence
Even though I've been gone too long
I can stamp my foot and split in two
But I'll be whole before the dawn.

Say I've been to hell and back
Well you got it wrong, I never did return
Lay my head on the chopping block and
I'll hand you the hatchet.

Strewn again from limb to limb
A slap and a tickle and a hand in the till
Between extremes is mighty grim
I'll be free in a minute of my free will
Two on a bed gone round the bed
I laugh and writhe the more I try
My mind fell apart for you to mend
I sing to you and you reply.

Say I've been to hell and back
Well you got it wrong, I never did return
Lay my head on the chopping block and
I'll hand you the hatchet.

Soon as my head hit the pillow
He took it as his cue to shake me back awake
Could have killed him bout a couple of times
By laying in wait and tearing down the drapes
If I stomp hard enough
He'll slip in the soap and
I'll wave good-bye as he's circling the drain.

I'm not going anywhere, I have way too much to lose
Even though I'm killing myself,
It's no indication I won't come through
Don't go making plans to fill my absence
Even though I've been gone too long
I could stamp my foot and split in two
But I'll be whole before the dawn.

*** Chin Up

It catches up with me
Soften the blow
Already spread thin
I promise I'm fine
because time never passes for me there in the dark
A shadow of your former self there in the light
And oh, the one thing you are good at is wasting your love
In a cold bed you can say you were never there
The one thing that turns you in your grave
In a cold bed I can say I was never there
This will bury me, oh this will bury me
It catches up with me
Soften the blow
Already spread thin
I promise I'm lying
Because time never passes for me there in the dark
A shadow of your former self there in the light
And oh, the one thing I am good at is wasting my love
I need you right now [x6]
I need you I need you I need you
right now.
