I was wondering if anyone can help me figure out the lyrics to these unreleased songs.

Shape of a Pocket
.
Get your face away from me
Keep equipped with your wings and fly
Take this knife out of me
Take this personally and die
.
Is this what your magic's used for?
Is this when you slept on the floor?
Is this what your magic's used for?
Is this when you slept on the floor?
.
Get your face away from mine
Keep equipped with those wings and fly
Take your knife out of me
Take this personally and die
.
Is this what your magic's used for?
Is this when you slept on the floor?
Is this what your magic's used for?
Is this when you slept on the floor?

Silent Faces
.
Turn
Turn away
Turn away
Turn away
This
Face in pain
This face erased
This face erased
[bones?]
Growing old
You're getting old
It's geting old
[arms?]
Outstretched wide
This outstretched sky
This burning sky
.
I want them all to run away
'Cause they want us all to [?]
I want them all to go away
'Cause they want us all to [?]
[?]
.
[homes?]
Crumbled house
This crumbled house
[?]
This
Face in pain
This face erased
This face erased
All
Standing still
We're not [?]
We're not [?]
I
Want a war
You got your war
You still want more
.
They want us all to [?]
I want them all to go away
They want us all to [?]
I want them all t go away
I want [?]
.
.
.
Room with a View
.
[?] darling
Come share the warmth
This memory is left at the door
We now prepare ourselves
This moment inadequate
Your eyes of expression emote
Now we're beginning
And all possibility aligns itself
The stage not yet set
Are you with me
And can you kiss me
And fall as I knew you would
As you give into this
Surrender your kiss
And place it upon me
You accept me at will
Your body so still
Except for your heartbeat
And I'm feeling this one 'cause I'm sparing it
.
[?]
And rooms with a pretty view
All which return to themselves
Listen [?]
Familiar astonishment
Anxious [?]
'Cause you wanted to be part of this scene
[?] with your hands full
Do you happen to be
Do you give unto me
More than I came for
Don't leave this behind
Oh come, just sit down
[?]
'Cause I'm breathing this one 'cause I'm loving it
And I'm feeling this one 'cause I'm feeling it
And I'm building this one 'cause I'm breaking this one
.
There's a ghost
There's a ghost
Hiding in silence
Don't let them catch us
Don't let them stop us
We're okay
There's a ghost
There's a ghost
Hiding in silence
Don't let them stop us
Don't let them catch us
We're okay
Thanks for those... i wish i could help you out but i just can't figure them out. Your take on Shape Of A Pocket looks perfectly correct to me!
Smart way to make paragraphs by the way! I'll steal your idea!
~ Coralie ~
thank you for being curious about the lyrics.....it means a lot that you listen....Shape of a pocket you nailed and i am posting the other 2 below....sometimes i screw them up when i sing so hopefully this helps....
ROOM WITH A VIEW
Cold drapes of doubt and dark shades of hope,
This memory’s left at the door
We now prepare ourselves, this moment inadequate,
Eager eyes of expression emote
Now we’re beginning, all possibility, aligns itself,
The stage not yet set
Are you with me, can you kiss me and
Fall as I knew you would
You give into this, surrender your kiss and place it upon me
You accept me at will, your body so still, except for your heartbeat
And I building this one
So I am breaking it
Points of passage and rooms with a pretty view,
All which return to themselves
With sudden bursts of familiar astonishment,
Anxious momentum arrives
It happens to be; you’ve given to me, more than I came for
You wanted to be, part of this scene, so fly with your hands full
So I’ll leave this behind, all kindness in time, I still have a mouthful
And I `m feeling this one cause I’m fearing it and I `m breathing this one cause I am living it and I’m building this one so I’ll break this one
There’s a ghost, there’s a ghost, hiding inside us
Don’t let them doubt us, don’t let them catch us, we’re okay
There’s a ghost, there’s a ghost hiding inside us
Don’t let them catch us, don’t let them stop us, we’re okay
We’re okay
SILENT FACES
Turn, turn away, turn away, turn away
sad face of pain, face in pain, this face erased
bones are old, bones getting old, bones old
Arms stretched out wide, outstretched sky, burning sky
They want us all to sleep awake
They want us all to love with hate
They want us all to fade away
i want them all to go away
Hands cover eyes, covered eyes, close your eyes
silent face of pain, face in pain, erase this faith
We’re standing still, frozen still, but not stuck here
You want a war, you’ve got your war, still want more
They want us all to sleep awake
They want us all to love with hate
They want us all to fade away
i want them all to go away
I want a lie

Thanks Joel!
I think I misheard quite a few lines... now that I know what they are, I hear the correct lyrics when I listen to the recordings I have. :)

Silent Faces just got even cooler now that I know the real words. Love that song.
~ Nikki
I've found videos of Silent Faces on youtube if anyone would like to see them. It's an incredible song, does anyone have an audio file for it? sounds great.
Thanks

I've got a few (I'm thinking three?) good quality audio files of it... sadly they're not ready to see the light of day yet. Have to send them to Josh (wave to the nice people, Josh) in Oregon to transfer digitally. When they're ready, I'll be sharing on the hub and see if I can figure out how to upload them here. Or maybe Josh will. I dunno. Haha.
~ Nikki

Those are mine. I posted them on the user submitted video, but you have to click on my picture and then go to where it says Tracks on it. I have some more from the last Hotel Cafe but they are really dark and I have to play with them.
I really enjoyed watching "Silent Faces" at the Horseshoe... that was such a great show. Thanks for sharing your videos!

Amy, is there any way you could send me the original files from your camera from the Horseshoe show? I'm going to (eventually, when work slows down and lets me have some time for myself HAH) make a DVD of the show using the different camera angles, and I'd love to add yours to the mix. :) Thanks!
~ Nikki

I will try to figure out something. The files are huge, and it would take forever to get them on and off the hub. Maybe I can burn them onto a DVD and mail it to you. I will let you know when I have more time to play with things.

Thanks so much! However you end up transferring the files to me, I'll mail you a completed DVD whenever it gets finished. Hopefully that'll be sometime this century. ;)
~ Nikki

This century? Yeah right!

It's not my fault Kohl's is working me so hard that I have no time for myself. *sigh*

Now that there are recordings of Blow Against the Wind and White Trash Memoirs available, I was hoping to see the lyrics to match. I've written out what I've been able to catch from Blow Against the Wind, if anyone can correct my many mistakes or post what they've heard from White Trash Memoirs I think we'd all appreciate it.
Joel, if you get time to add the official words in, we'll be all set.

Blow Against the Wind
.
Don’t stop loving yourself for them
(?)
Soldier writing thoughts (?) send to yourself
Document your pleasures place them on the shelf
bloody little things said you're getting too thin (?)
You buried your face in the trouble you’re in
Such imagination and its gone to your head
Muted on (?) on the edge of your bed
there is no love there is no lie/life there is no one to hold you tight
there is no god there is no
don’t stop loving yourself again
brothel wont raze your daddy’s house
pretty little thing keep it all to yourself
wanna lose respect from the devil himself
there is no love there is no lie/life there is no one to hold you tight
there is no god there is no
blow against the wind til the sparks fly
blow against the wind (set yourself?)
blow against the wind til the sparks fly
blow against the wind until you set yourself. . . .

Once I know the correct lyrics I'll be able to hear them in the song clearly, but until then this is what i have.

The last half is what I hear too (I think there are a couple more lines in the chorus though). The first verse is harder to tell, I'm not really sure.
I'm not sure about White Trash Memoirs. The vocals were a little too muffled where I was at, it might have turned out better if I had been a bit farther back in the room.

Based on my more recent recordings, I think these are the lyrics to White Trash:

I took you to bed
I crossed into you
Yeah and I lost my head
I jumped in the ocean
It was 3am
You were an ocean
But I couldn't swim
.
Oh blister blister
I need a friend
I couldn't kiss her
So I stared instead
.
Yeah we're on island
It all depends
We're a story
With no end
.
Wake me from this dream
I want to meet you as the oceans greet the trees
I want to kiss you as we swim beneath the sea
I want to hold you as the sun sets through the beach
.
[?]
[?]
My emotions bore me
I feel in a trance
Well I was [?] drunk
I was scared to death
Oh, I couldn't jump
Such a beautiful mess
Yeah the seed's been planted
Stuck in my head
There is no [?]
Love is [there? dead? not sure]
.
Wake me from this dream
I want to meet you as the oceans greet the trees
I want to kiss you as we swim beneath the sea
I want to hold you as the sun sets through the beach
I want to live up to you
Wake me from this dream
I want to meet you as the oceans greet the trees
I want to kiss you as we swim beneath the sea
I want to hold you as the sun sets through the beach
I want to live up to you
Why am I staring at you?
I'm not stopping for you now
White Trash Memoirs
You crushed the room
Took you to bed
Crashed into you
Yeah, lost my head
Jumped in the ocean
3 AM
you were an ocean
I couldn’t swim
Blister Blister
her little friend
I couldn’t kiss her
So I stared instead
We had an island
We had the bends
We were a story
that had no end
In the land of holly
We had a dance
Emotions mauled me
Fell in a trance
I was limp dick drunk
I was scared to death
I couldn’t jump
Such a pitiful mess
The seed’s been planted
Stuck in the head
It’s not worth it
Your love is dead
Don’t wake me from this dream
I want to meet you where the
Ocean greets the trees
I want to kiss you while we
swim beneath the sea
I want to hold you when the
Sun sets through the leaves
I want to make love with you
While I am staring at you
And I am starving for you now
BLOW AGAINST THE WIND
Don’t stop loving yourself again
Your mother never meant those words she said
Such erratic thoughts, best keep them to yourself
Scribble on your pages, place them high on a shelf
Blurry little thing seems your getting too thin
You’ve painted your face with the trouble you’re in
Such imagination and it`s gone to your head
Muted and fragile on the edge of your bed
THERE IS NO LOVE, THERE IS NO RIGHT, THERE IS NO ONE TO HOLD YOU TIGHT
THERE IS NO LOVE, THERE IS NO, THERE IS NO GOD,
THERE IS NO
Don’t go hating yourself again
Forever won`t erase your Daddy’s hand
Pretty little thing best keep it all to yourself
Don’t want to lose respect from the devil himself
THERE IS NO LOVE, THERE IS NO RIGHT, THERE IS NO ONE TO HOLD YOU TIGHT
THERE IS NO LOVE, THERE IS NO, THERE IS NO GOD THERE IS NO
BLOW AGAINST THE WIND UNTIL THE SPARKS FLY
BLOW AGAINST THE WIND UNTIL YOU SET YOURSELF
BLOW AGAINST THE WIND UNTIL THE SPARKS FLY
BLOW AGAINST THE WIND UNTIL YOU SET YOURSELF FREE

"You've painted your face with the trouble you're in"
Wow...
-E
let the ending begin lyrics anyone?
Based on the last recording Josh posted (Feb 29 @ Hotel Cafe) I tried to write down the lyrics to Let the Ending Begin... My english is not good though, so please someone help me figure out the correct lyrics and the parts I'm missing...
