Track Lyrics
I Am One Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I am one as you are three
Try to find a messiah in your trinity
Your city to burn, your city to burn
Try to look for something in your city to burn
You’ll burn
[Chorus]
Am I as I seem?
I’m down
Down
So down
[Verse 2]
Time is right for a guiding light
Try to turn to reasons in your bitter life
Your city to burn, your city to burn
Try to look for something in your city to burn
You’ll burn
[Bridge]
See you, don’t you just want to
See you, I am one
See you, don’t you just want to
See you
[Outro]
See you, don’t you just want to
See you, I am one
See you, don’t you just want to
See you, I am one
Rhinoceros Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Panda show
Trees and balloons
Ice cream snow
See you in June (June)
[Verse 2]
Could have known
I would reveal
Should have known
I would conceal your way
[Chorus]
She knows
And she knows, she knows, she knows
And she knows, she knows, she knows
How’s it
She knows, she knows, she knows
But she knows, she knows
[Verse 3]
Colors show
After the moon
I should go
See you in June
Your way
[Chorus]
She knows
And she knows, she knows, she knows
And she knows, she knows, she knows
How's it
She knows, she knows, she knows
And she knows, she knows
[Bridge]
Open your eyes
To these mustard lies
Open your eyes
To these mustard lies
The way
[Chorus]
She knows
And she knows, she knows, she knows
And she knows, she knows, she knows
How's it
She knows, she knows, she knows
And she knows, she knows, she knows
Crush Lyrics
[Verse 1]
You wrap your arms around
A feeling that surrounds
Like liquid peppermint
Just taste the dreams that she sent
[Chorus]
And this feeling shivers down your spine
Love comes in colors, I can't deny
All that matters is love, love, your love
[Verse 2]
You're sleeping in your bed
Just rest your weary head
Maybe you shouldn't care
Throw away those dreams and dares
[Chorus]
And I wonder if it matters to me
Love comes in colors, I can't deny
All that shimmers is love, love, your love
Your love
Your love
Snail Lyrics
[Verse 1]
All your seven dreams
Are closer than you believe
As your things come undone
See you are the only one
[Pre-Chorus]
Flower, seize the hour, the day, away
Waiting, waiting for your way, away
[Chorus]
When you wake up your own way
Throwing your life away
Softly, siren coming home
Siren snail
What you wait for
[Verse 2]
Flower, the pain will wash away, away
When the sun shines
Climbs through your window
Into your bed
[Chorus]
When you wake up your own way
Throwing your life away
Softly, siren coming home
Siren snail
Yeah, that's my home
[Post-Chorus]
Flower, save the hours
Flower, away
[Outro]
What you wait for-ah, ah, ah, ah, ah
Flower, chase the sunshine
Flower, chase the sunshine
Flower
Daydream Lyrics
[Verse]
My daydream seems as one inside of you
Though it seems hard to reach through this life
You're blue and hopeless life
My daydream screams bitter ’til the end
The love I share, true, selfish to the heart
My heart, my sacred heart
[Chorus]
My daydream, dream
My daydream
My daydream, dream
My daydream
[Outro]
I'm going crazy
I'm going crazy
I don't want feelings
Your feelings
I have gone crazy
Motherfucking crazy
I have gone
Siva (Peel session) (2011 - remaster) Lyrics
[Verse]
I spin off and lose my head
Throwing stray, a spark instead
Gather strength down in my heel
And dig it in the world I peel
[Pre-Chorus]
Way down deep and in my heart
Lies a soul that’s torn apart
Tell me, tell me what you’re after
I just want to get there faster
[Chorus]
I don’t live, I inhale
I don’t give, I unveil
Don’t wanna live in your misery
I don’t live, I inhale
[Bridge]
Sprinkle all my kisses on your head
Stars full of wishes fill our beds
She said, "I’m dead"
[Guitar Solo]
[Pre-Chorus]
All this pain smothers me
Like a bomb that you can’t see
Tell me, tell me what you’re after
I just want to get there faster
You!
[Chorus]
I don’t live, I inhale
I don’t give, I unveil
I don’t live, I inhale
I don’t live
Hippy Trippy (Crush Music Box demo) Lyrics
[Verse 1]
You wrap your arms around
A feeling that surrounds
Like liquid peppermint
Just taste the dreams that she sent
[Chorus]
And this feeling shivers down your spine
Love comes in colors, I can't deny
All that shimmers is love, love, your love
[Verse 2]
You’re sleeping in your bed
Just rest your weary head
Maybe you shouldn't care
Throw away those dreams and stares
[Chorus]
And I wonder if it matters to me
Love comes in colors, I can't deny
All that shimmers is love, love, your love
Plume (2011 mix) Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Oh yeah, another day
Oh yeah, gotta play
What it is, it never was
I don't care to give enough
[Chorus]
My boredom has outshined the sun
It's so down low
I just want to have some
Little fun
[Guitar Solo]
[Verse 2]
Oh yeah, another day
Oh yeah, what a waste
What it is, it never was
I don't care or give a fuck
[Chorus]
My boredom has outshined the sun
It's so down low
I just want to have some
Little fun
[Outro]
Bring me down
Bring me down
Bury Me (Reel Time Demos) (2011 mix) Lyrics
[Intro]
(We're rolling)
(Like an angel)
Bury me in love
Bury me in blood
Shield your kisses
Take your heart
Bury me if it hurts
[Verse 1]
I love my sister so
Chain, unchain
She don't smother me
Chain, unchain, unchain
I breathe in spades, I know
Unchain
I'm a jack of all trades
Won't you bury me?
[Verse 2]
Want you to see her born inside
Hide, hide
Some are things you just can't hide
If you see her, tell me why
Hide, hide
Why won't she come outside?
[Verse 3]
If you see her, tell me why
Hide, hide
Why won't she come outside?
Want you to see her born inside
Hide, hide
Some are things you just can't hide
[Outro]
She waits, bury me
She waits, bury me
Tristessa (Sub Pop single) (2011 mix) Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Pledge your faith, my heart, it breaks
Struggle to renew
Blurry mind, so hypnotized
Fast enough, who?
[Chorus]
Wonder
Where you are
Tristessa
[Verse 2]
Soul takes soul as eye take eye
I will wait for you
What you believe, you’ll wish to receive
Won’t believe you
You-hoo
[Chorus]
Hang on
To your life
Tristessa
[Bridge]
I love you true
Surely, I do
I love you true
Surely, I do
Surely, I do
Surely, I do (No)
[Outro]
Do you ever wake up and find yourself alone?
Do you ever wake up far from home?
What you believe, you’ll wish to receive
I won’t believe you
Tristessa
Tristessa

Girl Named Sandoz (Peel session) (2011 - remaster) Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Well I met a girl called Sandoz
And she taught me many many things
Good things, very good things
Sweet things
[Verse 2]
I met her on a sunny morning
It was hot, though the snow lay on the ground
Strange things, very strange things
My mind has wings
[Bridge]
Sandoz, Sandoz, you taught me love
Sandoz, Sandoz, you taught me love
We could all learn something from your mind
Yeah!
[Guitar Solo]
[Verse 3]
She is very old, but you may think she's young
One kiss from her and you know your time has come
Good times, for all time
Sandoz
Blue (Gish Sessions demo) Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Hey, blue, aw, your love is strange
Call on all those crazy names
So true
When you laugh
[Refrain]
For you, blue
[Bridge]
Right or wrong
I belong
Right or wrong
[Verse 2]
Hey, blue, where'd you run to now? (Hey blue)
Miss you since they found you out
I've been waitin' such a long time
For your smile
[Refrain]
For you, blue
[Outro]
I lay with you this velvet morning
Stay with me for a while
Where we run to is up to you
Just stay with me for a while
Smiley (Gish Sessions demo) Lyrics
5 ContributorsSmiley (Peel Session) LyricsSmiley, where have you been?
Smiley, it's such a sin to say
You're gonna dream your life away
Knew a man who couldn't make it
On a bended knee
All his friends were simple prophets
Only if you bleed
And he'll bleed
On his knees
Smiley, where have you been?
Smiley, it's such a sin to say
You're gonna dream your life away
Your love won't change
Come back to stay
Smiley, smiley, smiley, smiley
Smiley, smiley, smiley, smiley
And you
If I'm smilin'
Then I'm tryin'
'Cause I'm smilin'
I Am One (Reel Time Demos) (2011 mix) Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I am one as you are three
Try to find a messiah in your trinity
Your city to burn, your city to burn
Try to look for something in your city to burn
You’ll burn
[Chorus]
Am I as I seem?
I’m down
Down
So down
[Verse 2]
Time is right for a guiding light
Try to turn to reasons in your bitter life
Your city to burn, your city to burn
Try to look for something in your city to burn
You’ll burn
[Bridge]
See you, don’t you just want to
See you, I am one
See you, don’t you just want to
See you
[Outro]
See you, don’t you just want to
See you, I am one
See you, don’t you just want to
See you, I am one
La Dolly Vita (2011 mix) Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I lay my head on her bosom
To cry myself to sleep
I seek no greater wisdom
Than she has given me
[Chorus 1]
La Dolly Vita
Sweet as true love
La Dolly Vita
Cool as ice cream
Cool as I scream
[Verse 2]
Even with all her visions
You can't even stop
Can't see what you're missin'
Spinnin' like a top
[Bridge]
Fade away, I wanna see her
Fade away, I wanna see her
I only wanna meet her
[Interlude]
Ooh-ooh-oh-oh
Oh-oh
[Chorus 2]
La Dolly Vita
True as blue sky
La Dolly Vita
Cool as ice cream
Cool as I scream
[Post-Chorus]
Take it all the way down
Forsake what you have now
Take it all the way down
[Instrumental Outro]
Drown (alternate guitar solo) Lyrics
[Verse 1]
No matter where you are
I can still hear you when you drown
You've traveled very far
Just to see you I'll come around
When I'm down
[Hook]
All of those yesterdays
Coming down
[Verse 2]
No matter where you are
I can still hear you when you dream
You traveled very far
You traveled far, like a star
And you are
[Hook]
All of those yesterdays
Coming down
[Bridge 1]
Is it something someone said?
Was it something someone said?
[Guitar Solo]
[Bridge 2]
Yesterday the sky was you
And I still feel the same
Nothing left for me to do
And I still feel the same
[Outro]
I wish, I wish I could fly
I wish, I wish I could lie
I will, I will try
I will, I will
Goodbye
