[lyrics, music, production by Frankie Lyon]

1. Good Doubt

I don’t know about her
Something seems unsaid
I don’t know about her
Stories I’ve been fed


So, this sanity
We’d gone so far to show
Had us kept up within
Like two animals enclosed
So — why don’t I just run?
Call up my old find —
Or will I just stay
Keep up old thoughts and
Speak softly to your face
So — say that I’m bad faith
Call up your old —


I don’t know about her
Something seems unsaid
(Oh, death*)
I don’t know about her
Stories I’ve been fed
(Oh, death*)


2. Am I (Getting to You)?

Platform ledge
Below blue light
Leaning in
Before first time
Midnight breaks
Above, oh boy
Dare me twice
and I just might


Sometimes I don’t know why
I lie


I’m not getting to you
Am I?


3. My Belief in Loans

My, my misbelief
Blotted image talking in our rooms
The wraith I wrote her as
Disappeared along with every loan
I, I bite the wish
Tell it that a taller one had come


If I
If I am
If I am to —


4. Alba

Meanwhile I’ll play for
This whole hopeless trap
Hoping that someday
My thoughts might come back

Bone-still and commissioned
I don’t touch
That poor old tile room
Flooded full with dust

Day after day again
I stand and resist
I nearly fell to your floor
But I laughed then and hissed

Oh, right, look at you, darling
Telling me I’ll be just fine
Don’t paper up my pleasant words
That pen of yours is almost dry


My, oh my


Now I’m living twice as long
And you’re there, stuck in your own head
My Maggie is calling me
Sated so she says

These months keep moving by
Oh, my breaking ballroom clothes come off
Sold me at the magic hour
Behind the absent sun

And that time I came and went
Johanna, she knew everything I’d caught
And you, good Alba,
You’ve given all you’ve got


My, oh my
