Track Name: Karenina: Leave me alone

I am a stone

white and gleaming

in the summer sun

so completely numb

Cold to the touch

haven't you had

quite enough

of throwing me around

leave me on the ground

Who's to say I wasn't waiting all along

A train comes in and sings a simple kind of song

Anna look away

when the whistle plays

Didn’t you love somebody

once maybe now

you're not so affectionate

Thats what she said

so I tore up my bed

with another three

here comes the steam

Who's to say I wasn't waiting all along

A train comes in and sings a simple kind of song

Anna look away

when the whistle plays

I'm not having fun yet

I'm not having fun

I got what I wanted

I'm not having fun

Didn’t you love somebody

once maybe now

you're not so affectionate

Thats what she said

so I tore up my bed

with another three

here comes the steam

Anna close your eyes
Track Name: Basement: I've got
Entertainment
Waiting for me
In the basement
next to
Beauties
Wearing Sweaters
Sending letters with their eyes
Talking so loud I can't think
The best nights catch me be surprise

When you're on my mind
and it's been a while
I'm all alone
I'm waiting to smile

For a moment
next to someone
for a fleeting conversation
now they're leaving
guess I'll pour another drink
swaying till I'm feeling sick

My girl
has the answer
to the question
that this whole party's been asking
Is she leaving?
Was she ever really there?
I don't know, and I just don't care
