Keepsake 03:23
Please don't leave, I am cold. I am such a liar when, When you ask of me, All that I can say. I won't cry, That's for when I'm alone. I let you walk away, I am cold. And all that's left of me, all that's left of me. You can take, As a keepsake. As a keepsake. So we are alone, In what we believe, In this hollowed out sea. Stay with me. In this hollowed out city, In this hollowed out country. And all that's left of me, all that's left of me. You can take, As a keepsake...

Coffee 04:18
It was November when I first saw you, Standing in the queue for the bathroom. You didn't even notice me, but I thought I knew you Always thought I knew you Never really did. You were so vague back then, thought that I should try to pretend Not to be absorbed by you. Where are you now, love? Do you still sing? 'Cause I used to buy coffee just to watch you Working the machines, hymns beneath the steam. Are you happy to be gone? It was December when we first spoke, Blind drunk and dumb, beer down my throat. February, got high before a show, Forgot my lines, tried to take you home. You were so sweet back then, thought that I should try to pretend I could be sweet too. Was I sweet to you? Where are you now, love? Do you still sing? 'Cause I used to buy coffee just to watch you Working the machines, hymns beneath the steam. Are you happy to be gone? Gone, is that what you want? Is that what you want? She just wants to be alone I would freeze to keep her warm She just wants to be alone I would freeze to keep her warm Warm But she is looking for no one Always home, because she is her own. Working the machines, Hymns beneath the steam Are you happy?
