Charlotte 02:58
Lyrics: Your velvet blue eyes, your deep disguise, Don't phase me This could be it, I'll tell you the truth, the truth sometimes hurts, you would know cause, Charlotte, Charlotte, Charlotte, Charlotte, This painful fight, Won't last tonight, as long as I'm alive, We could be together, with your endeavors taking care of my sight, Charlotte, Charlotte, Charlotte, Charlotte, Charlotte, Charlotte, Charlotte, Charlotte, This painful fight, Won't last tonight, as long as I'm alive

Lyrics: I went down to the shore, to ponder what was right I went down to the sea, to see the stars at night, I struggled your word, and prayed to Lord on high, and I found solace keep, the waves passing by There is a whisper so light, so light and I found my soul in her eyes, but she isn't the source of light So, I went down to the shore, to ponder what was right.

Jordan River 03:35
Lyrics: Sweet Jordan river You flow like snow Her red dress on my mind and I can't let go Red snow my pupils open up Your face is the moon My pulse will end soon and I can't let go Lay down Sweet river her face flows down

Coathangers 06:14
Lyrics: I warned you not to walk towards the wolf hound and now they ripped your skull to pieces, but took your heart hostage I will chase them until they fall on their knees, and I'll steal your heart back to me, and we will live so happily Our hearts will be on coathangers swaying in our wardrobe, This love is on our shoulders, this love is on our shoulders, And there you hid among friends With sorrowing glances, at the sun, I wondered if it was the heat, That made you so alive to me And so our love, died in peace, left on the coathangers

Lyrics: There was one time, When I thought I was gone, And Death stared at, at me for too long, So I ran away, and thought I could escape, but death stood still, staring at the sky And so, it ends tonight, I thought I was, exempt from all these hurts, but death came back, and my mind was a storm Its been three years, since your warm embrace I need it now, to meet his blameless face And so, it ends tonight.
