If I Lead
[Verse]
A night where your rest don’t come
Your hands grown numb
Your mind is collected tethers
Tell her exactly where you gone
Tired as hell
And bored to death
The shakes as you stumble in
If you like you could leave ‘em
If you like you could leave ‘em
[Chorus]
Show me the ways that you talk
And all of the places you walk
If I lead would you follow
Let me at the corners where the light don’t touch
Colors, figures sway
Love, they might lift you away
From the street to what’s under
If I lead would you follow
[Verse]
I woke from a restless sleep
My hands, my feet
Are pulsing electric shivers
Quivers
Building, broilin’ heat
Spires and bells
And carousels
Of figures that lead you in
If you like you could leave 'em
If you like you could leave 'em
If you like you could leave 'em
If you like you could leave 'em
[Chorus]
Show me the ways that you talk
And all of the places you walk
If I lead would you follow
Let me at the corners where the light don’t touch
Colors, figures sway
Love, they might lift you away
From the street to what’s under
And everything that scatters by the light of day
[Outro]
My hands are tied
These leads are mine
They call you in
Your light, your sin
My hands are tied
These leads are mine
They pull you through
And right they do
If I lead would you follow
If I lead would you follow
If I lead would you follow
If I lead would you follow
Curicó
[Verse]
Down where the water meets the legs of the dock
The things you just wouldn’t notice
Covers of darkness haunt the places you walk
And floats like breath on the lotus
I’ve seen her myself my friend and if you’ll believe
I swear one night I’d awoken
Julia
Julia
Where were you goin'
The light it comes home
The light it comes home
The light it comes home
Where you lead
[Chorus]
Somewhere down the bank where the dogs go
Por la calle que te lleva a Curicó
And down the beach, where no others can find
Ni por agua, piso, coche, ni avión
I swore
That in my heart
My heart of hearts
I’ve seen you there
I’ve seen you there
I’ve seen you at the spot where the ships don’t go
A Curicó
[Verse]
And down where the moonlight drapes the tips of the leaves
The things you just wouldn’t notice
Creatures of darkness haunting out by the reeds
You’d swear that death was upon us
In words from a half-dream
Those mutters in half-speech
Pale as she’d spoken
Julia
Julia
I guess you need a light where you’re goin
[Chorus]
Cos somewhere down the bank where the dogs go
Por la calle que te lleva a Curicó
And down the beach, where no others can find
Ni por agua, piso, coche, ni avión
I swore
That in my heart
My heart of hearts
I’ve seen you there
I’ve seen you there
I’ve seen you at the spot where the ships don’t go
[Outro]
A Curicó
(Pa’ donde va la luz mi perlina)
Curicó
(Pa’ donde va la luz mi perlina)
Curicó
(Pa’ donde va la luz mi perlina)
Curicó
(Pa’ donde va la luz mi perlina)

Julia
[Verse]
Down where the water meets the tips of the leaves
All of my nights
All of them here
Say had you wondered what that light was afar
Watch what you say
But say what you are
I’ve been alight with apparitions of death
Oh well
My mind has left
And my life is only threads
My life is only threads
Por la noche que persigo
Yo me quedo en Curicó
Ni por agua
Ni por piso
Ni por coche
Ni avión
Por la noche que ya viene
Yo me quedo en Curicó
The Hustle
[Verse]
I swore I’d never leave
My love I just don’t wanna be without
All of your disregard
I swear to god
It tears me all up
Where you live, not a sound
My love, I just don’t know where you are
I felt our synergy
Our faultless, dauntless curious love
[Chorus]
Little darling
Say did you mean it
All of your thoughts split apart at the seams, well
I know why you run
I felt it for real
On the dark of the day
You get it worse from the start
[Verse]
I swore I’d never leave
My love I just don’t wanna be without
All of your disregard
I swear to god
It tears me all up
Where you live, not a sound
My love, I just don’t know where you are
I felt our synergy
Our faultless, dauntless curious love
[Bridge]
Summer light
Summer light
Summer light
Summer light
[Chorus]
Little darling
Say did you mean it
All of your thoughts split apart at the seams, well
I know why you run
I felt it for real
On the dark of the day
You get it worse from the start
Did you like it?
And how were your dreams there?
I dreamt of a harbinger lifeless and steel man
That wanders the streets
Making men into meals
And as your head is undone
Will get you right where you stand
Gasolina
For curious dreams that
Are haunted, disquieting, kind, or uneasy
I’ll wait till you break
And I got patience for years
Cos when you’re head is undone
I’ll get you right where you walk
[Outro]
Summer light
Summer light
Summer light

The Drunk
[Verse]
I’ve seen a lot of things
Places you ain’t ever been
Minarets that pirouette
And pierce the clouds and canopies
So where you wanna be?
Wanna be
Wanna be
Oye
They say I talk a lot
Well I could change you with a thought
You knew me in a former life
A messianic cosmonaut
But those were better days
Betters days
Betters days
Oye
[Pre-Chorus]
And though I sleep where the dogs go
The places the drunks roam
Right down by the lifeboats
I’ve said it before my friend
I swear I’m not like those
I got my days man
I got my days man
You pass me by on the daily
Well how do you see me?
A drunk or a deadbeat
You don’t know the half of it
My life is amazing
I got my days though
I got my days though
[Chorus]
Como te va
Como te va
Como te va
Como te va
Como te va
Como te va
Como te va
[Pre-Verse]
He says he needs you so much
He needs you so much
Wanders down the block
And screams in tongues at the cars
It tears you all up
It tears you apart
[Verse]
I’ll show you everything
Fortunes, dreams, and reveries
I tally bets
And don’t forget
The shooters by the dollar see
So where you wanna be?
Wanna be
Wanna be
Oye
[Pre-Chorus]
And though I sleep where the dogs go
The places the drunks roam
Right down by the lifeboats
I’ve said it before my friend
I swear I’m not like those
I got my days man
I got my days man
You pass me by on the daily
Well how do you see me
A drunk or a deadbeat
You don’t know the half of it
My life is amazing
You’re so wrong
You’re so wrong
[Chorus/Outro]
Como te va
Como te va
Como te va
Y vos
Como te va
Como te va
Como te va
Como te va
Como te va
Como te va
Como te va
Como te va
Como te va
Como te va
Como te va
Como te va
