well in that case i guess we'll hang around
till the warranty's run down
we'll just keep on moving house
till someone finds us out
we'll hide the scorch marks in the yard
the knots on our hearts
that's what makes us us
and on the cusp of 17
that's when the whole thing starts
the shaking visions, prophetic dreams,
the signs, the tattoos, and the scars
the message written in the sky
in chemtrails and in stars:
WILL - YOU - BE - OURS?
who is the birthday girl?
who's the lucky guy?
i am not a criminal
which of you am i?
which of you am i?
if i broke this body, would they give me one that's mine?
if i broke this body, would they give me one that's mine?
if i broke this body, would they give me one that's mine?
would i be fine?
mysterious shape i saw at sunrise
before i went to school:
i ate my toast and never told you
didn't wanna wake you too
the day it changed, the picket fence,
the grass, the cake, and the balloons –
was it for me or for you?
twisting and gasping, i
surface from a dream
one of us is crying
but which of us is me?
which of us is me?
if i broke this body on the cusp of 17
if i broke this body on the cusp of 17
if i broke this body on the cusp of 17
would they give you back to me?
i am not a criminal
the message in the sky
blow out all the candles
which of them am i?
which of them am i?
if i broke this body (would they give me one that's mine?)
if i broke this body (on the cusp of 17)
if i broke this body (do you think that i'd be fine?)
if i broke this body (would they give you back to me?)

I cannot explain why I love this album in a coherent way. I can only say that when I listen to these tracks, I feel hope, I feel despair, I feel the weight of gravity push me towards Earth. I feel like a child of space.
