Jordaan Mason - Stranger Lyrics
Last night I slept with a strange man
He was older than me, he had thick busy hands
We crawled inside his bed, and we took off our clothes
We said nothing to each other
We said nothing to each other
We said nothing to each other

Jordaan Mason - Ethic Of Encounter Lyrics
A conscious hallucination
The open eye, so human
It is what it is not
It is what it is not
Contagious availability
Some things are there but you can't see
It is what it is not
It is what it is not
You have got to ...
Jordaan Mason - Why Fit? Lyrics
I get a late night call
She cries into the speaker, she says
'if I can't make myself a home here, I guess I don't belong anywhere!
Am I still a stranger getting on and off trains?
Will anyone ever know my name?
Will...
Jordaan Mason - Pink Lyrics
We dematerialize
Drag our way through
Stress about all the words
We cannot undo
Hide under the pink
In an otherwise grey room
Til finally the time comes
The flowers are in bloom
I say sister
Do what you have to do
Take y...
Jordaan Mason - Aphasia Lyrics
Another dog ear year gone south
Collecting garbage in my mouth

I kept thinking, "ta...
Jordaan Mason - Best Mess Lyrics
Should i undress
If i feel powerless

Shit year, best mess
Ugly, cut-up, killing time
A risk, we race toward the light

But i miss you all the time
I want to let the cat out of...
Jordaan Mason - Come & Go Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I carried you down past the churches
I did it for your own sake
You stood by the pier and you looked out
At all the lights dancing on the lake
And I carried you down to the creek bed
Where you stared up at the sun
Yo...
Jordaan Mason - It Does Not Get Better Lyrics
It does not get better, it just gets heavier
It does not get better, it just gets heavier

The days grew darker, shorter
Our own worlds weren't enough to help us stay above the wei...
Jordaan Mason - Avalanches Lyrics
[Verse 1]
If snow is flesh in gardens: we don't have mouths to talk about it
Between avalanches, we can find our language
Between fire blankets, we can speak our language
[Pre-Chorus]
But if snow is like skin: it pulls awa...
Jordaan Mason - I Was Coerced Lyrics

This is what i had been taught to do
But we've been braiding our hair, together
And we've been making a prayer, together
And we've been graphing a map, together
And we'...
Flight Brigade - Stranger Things Lyrics
[Verse 1]
This took way too long
How were we supposed to fell
When everything went wrong
Hear me when I say
This ship ran aground
It was steered by savages
Who dreamt of treasures found
Hear me when I say
[Chorus]
Oh

Jordaan Mason - It Does Not Get Better (Reprise) Lyrics
The days grew brighter, longer
We left the house again
We lost our keys, scraped our knees, and forgot our plans
I had a dream you laughed at me when I asked for help
But you were there when I awoke and your warmth i felt
Still ev...
Jordaan Mason - They Harmonize Lyrics
Scientist you've been hard at work I know
You've been digging the earth for weeks in your front yard
Have you found the box of bibles I buried there
So long ago I can't remember the litanies and
Are you hoping to have...
Jordaan Mason - Bird's Nest Lyrics
My mouth is filled with his ovaries
I hold them: here, between my teeth
O! Get these bird's nests out of me

How do you fertilize what cann...
Jordaan Mason - Unable Lyrics
I was unable to call you
When i wanted to call you
And tell you happy birthday
It was a weird day
I was walking
With a song you like
Stuck in my head but
Only a single part of the song
You know the part where she says

Jordaan Mason - His Hands Lyrics
You covered your face in black coal
Stripped off all of your clothes
Did you think I wouldn't recognize you that way?

Jordaan Mason - Pharmacy Lyrics
All you are is pharmacy

The Fuller Brothers - Stranger At My Door Lyrics
Once you was my true love, stranger at my door
But you went to find a new love, stranger at my door
Now you cry for me to let you in, to break my heart (that won't come again)
You hurt me, like you did before, but never again stra...
Jordaan Mason - Never Homesick Lyrics
We stayed home, played priapus
I felt at peace with my wrong sex
Hours passed, we lost the time
We osculate and we entwine
I want to buy you clothes
You'll be too ashamed to wear in public
So that when you put them on

Jordaan Mason - Plural Lyrics
I am not here like i used to be
I'm half-erased perhaps a ghost just pissing aimlessly
I am impatient i want to be a snake
I want to feel the grass against my skin or on my face

But i say this ...
Jordaan Mason - I've Been Tasting Roads My Whole Life Lyrics
I have made too much room in me

Jordaan Mason - Of Hospitals Lyrics
look: i ate all the books in your bedroom
and they took my blood and tested it in small doses

Jordaan Mason - Fire / Housework Lyrics

Jordaan Mason - Her Dog Lyrics
So we've got this bruise, these bruises

I argue in my head now, I barely sing
I used to be more...

Jordaan Mason - Made And Remade Continually Lyrics
I wanted to reach out
Ask for help

My body needs a reason to rally itself
But instead of inspire...
Amos Lee - Stranger Lyrics
I'm a stranger everywhere I go

Jordaan Mason - Organs For Oceans Lyrics
He slept in my bed
After I filled his body
With insects and panic
And grandfather sewn seeds
I was useless inside him
Trade organs for oceans

Jordaan Mason - (s)mother Lyrics
The doctors told him he'd be gone by now
His lungs full of blankets: burnt, black, and bound
He buried his family in the backyard
Flooded the basement, filled it up with tar
We borrowed their old clothes, and then we undressed

Amos Lee - Stranger Lyrics
I'm a stranger everywhere I go
They say the apple, it don't fall far from the tree, "Hey Daddy look at me"

Unplug me from this, I want no wires

Tell me what feels good, I don't care

Jesus Jones - Stranger Lyrics
Are you jealous, still super zealous
Do you miss it, or kiss and dismiss it
Do you get the guest list, may be the second best list
Or are you lining up with all the rest list?

Jordaan Mason - Wrong In My Chest Lyrics
So, how did it start?
What set me off?
Or is this just how it's always been
But sometimes I'm better at keeping it in?
And then my heart begins to beat again
Where it feels like something's wrong in my chest
I ...
Jordaan Mason - Another War Lyrics
We returned home
You with a raincoat, me a permanent cough
Put less and less clothes on, could not decide whether or not we wanted to walk to the ends of the earth
Or if perhaps we'd rather rest in our own backyard dirt

Jordaan Mason - Map On The Body Lyrics
I am afraid to talk. i make

If you're afraid
If you think you're in danger
