Casting Lots 03:00
CASTING LOTS What if all these residents
 Aren’t family or friends?
 Heaven knows I’m a trusting host
 Unlocked the door inside my head

 I’m not sure who you are but I 

Think you got it twisted around
 ‘Cause everyone’s had their say now 
And in the night I think I’d wasted it all
 So throw it down like casting lots
 I may let you lie to me incessantly 
But I know that I’m not supposed to feel this way

 What if all these messages 
 Aren’t necessary?
 Heaven knows I’ve toed their lines
 And tried to make them satisfied 

I’m not sure who you are but I

 Think you got it twisted around
 ‘Cause everyone’s had their say now
 And in the night I think I’d wasted it all 
So throw it down like casting lots 
I may let you lie to me incessantly
 But I know that I’m not supposed to feel this way

 Can you tell me 
How long have I been betrayed?
 Years, I think 
Years, I think

ALREADY INVISIBLE What does it mean to disappear
 When you’ve always been so far from here
 As the one they brand invisible?
 As the one they brand invisible?

 They say you’re a beloved soul 
They say they wish you wouldn’t go
 But you know it’s not true
 ‘Cause they choose the parts of you to cut and paste 
They toss your heavy heart away

 What does it mean to disappear
 When you’ve always been more far than near
 As the one they brand invisible?
 As the one they brand invisible? 

 You can’t accept the status quo 
You can’t accept what you’ve been sold
 They don’t understand
 That you’re a hunter and you’re on the chase 
For honesty that’s been erased

 As the one they brand invisible
 As the one they brand invisible

 You take one breath and the world’s
 Already closed its eyes on your trouble
 So how do you go and disappear
 When you’re already invisible?
 When you’re already invisible?

Glitter 02:11
GLITTER When life’s glitter turns to cinder
 And it all comes spiraling down
 Celebration’s growing ancient
 Doesn’t hold no weight no more And if it makes you in your
 Hand-shaking fear of it
 Turn tail and run
 What could I tell you?

 What could I tell you? When life’s glitter turns to cinder
 And it all comes spiraling down 
Celebration’s growing ancient
 Doesn’t hold no weight no more And if it makes you in your
 Heart-quaking, tears flowing 
Turn tail and run
 What could I tell you?
 I wouldn’t blame you
4.
NEW SKIN We just keep changing
 Growing ourselves new skin 
And all of our memories
 When we try ‘em on they don’t fit Hoped you’d be the only one that I would never lose
 Used to be my secret-keeper, now they’re running loose
 They’re running loose We just keep changing
 Growing ourselves new skin
 And all of our memories
 When we try ‘em on they don’t fit You might be the only one who’s not hiding a ruse
 But if I have to tear you from me that’s what I will do
 That’s what I’ll do ‘Cause what’s a little more pain in a world full of suffering? 
In a world full of noise that don’t wanna speak your name? And if I could stay on the phone with you
 If I could remain in Atlantic’s rooms
 Biking out to the sea, you know I would
 You know I would
