The Letter I carried this letter All through the winter In fear of what it might say I know the reasons They change so fast And we can never make it back In the letter that you wrote I heard the words that you never spoke It is time for you to come home So, I travelled the seas To return for you But I did not make it through And I know it's not easy Things can be so wrong As we are lost in the waves And in the letter that I wrote Were the words I never spoke This is why I can't come home And in the letter that I wrote, Were the words I never spoke This is why I can't come home And in the letter that you wrote Was it a letter as a friend? This is what I must know And in the letter that you wrote Was it a letter as a friend? This is what I must know

I never thought that I would find myself In bed amongst the stones The columns are all men Begging to crush me No shapes sail on the dark deep lakes And no flags wave me home In the caves All cats are gray In the caves The textures coat my skin In the death cell A single note Rings on and on and on

Matilda Mother There was a king who ruled the land His Majesty was in command With silver eyes the scarlet eagle Showered silver on the people... Oh Mother, tell me more Why’d'ya have to leave me there Hanging in my infant air Waiting? You only have to read the lines They’re scribbly black and everything shines Across the stream with wooden shoes With bells to tell the king the news A thousand misty riders climb up Higher once upon a time Wandering and dreaming The words have different meaning Yes they did For all the time spent in that room The doll’s house, darkness, old perfume And fairy stories held me high On clouds of sunlight floating by Oh Mother, tell me more Tell me more
4.
Knives Out I want you to know He's not coming back Look into my eyes I'm not coming back So knives out Catch the mouse Don't look down Shove it in your mouth If you'd been a dog They would've drowned you at birth Look into my eyes It's the only way you'll know I'm telling the truth So knives out Cook him up Squash his head Put him in the pot I want you to know He's not coming back He's bloated and frozen Still, there's no point in letting it go to waste So knives out Catch the mouse Squash his head Put him in the pot Read more: Radiohead - Knives Out Lyrics | MetroLyrics

Native these words seem to me All speech directed to me I've heard them once before I know that feeling Stranger emotions in mind Changing the contours I find I've seen them once before Someone cries to me The look and the sound of the voice They try, they try The shape and the power of the voice In strong low tones Forceful and twisting again Wasting the perfect remains I've felt it once before Slipping over me The look and the sound of the voice They try, they try The shape and the power of the voice In strong low tones Sweetly the voices decay Draw on the lines that they say I'd lost it once before Now it cries to me The look and the sound of the voice They try, they try The shape and the power of the voice In strong low tones

By This River Here we are stuck by this river You and I underneath a sky That's ever falling down, down, down Ever falling down Through the day as if on an ocean Waiting here always failing to remember Why we came, came, came I wonder why we came? You talk to me as if from a distance And I reply with impressions chosen From another time, time, time From another time

Afterglow Like the dust that settles all around me, I must find a new home. The ways and holes that used to give me shelter, Are all as one to me now. But I, I would search everywhere Just to hear your call, And walk upon stranger roads than this one In a world I used to know before. I miss you more. Than the sun reflecting off my pillow, Bringing the warmth of new life. And the sounds that echoed all around me, I caught a glimpse of in the night. But now, now I've lost everything, I give to you my soul. The meaning of all that I believed before Escapes me in this world of none, no thing, no one. And I would search everywhere Just to hear your call, And walk upon stranger roads than this one In a world I used to know before. For now I've lost everything, I give to you my soul. The meaning of all that I believed before Escapes me in this world of none, I miss you more.
