LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: KILLED BY THE BOOM/THE VEILS

He stared at the skyline with a look of avarice
He smelled the diesel of a passing train
He fell with both hands still in his pockets
Killed by the boom and washed away

Oh no, what a tragedy
Say what you want about him
I say god damn

He wasn't no drug dealer momma
He was a dancer
With the dull eyes of a steer and a lions mane
Bear me no public opinion it never answers
Whatever intuition cannot explain

Oh no, what a tragedy
Say what you want about him
I'll say god damn

No recognition by the state nor senate
No epitaph to sing aloud his sweet name
No fourteen stations and the nineteenth sonnet
Ne weren't no wealthy man but he was a man all the same

Oh no, what a tragedy
Say what you want about him
Oh no, what a fucking tragedy
Say what you want about him
I say god damn
It weren't the rain that killed him
And it weren't his muddy ears
It weren't the rain that killed him
He was killed by the boom
He was killed by the boom

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: IODINE AND IRON/THE VEILS

Ain't it useless to fight
Or to pretend
That it'll all come out right in the end
So you wait for me
I who've only time
You wait for me
Care to ease my mind
Iodine and iron

And I'm thinking of you
When times are hard
I feel as mad as the moon
And twice as scarred
Yet you wait for me
And you fill my heart
You wait for me
And you light the dark
Iodine and iron
Iodine and iron

So don't plead to me now
To be only mine
Love you're stripping me down
Like turpentine
Still you wait for me
Then you leave no trace
You wait for me
Soon I'll be erased
With iodine and iron
Iodine and iron
Iodine and iron
Iodine and iron

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: THE STARS CAME OUT ONCE THE LIGHTS WENT OUT/THE VEILS

I'm caught between the pen and the page
Lost in the remains of the age
Daddy when you were young was it all this strange?
Fear's inching up the ridge of my spine
The talking clock reminded me
I've never felt all myself and I don't know why

I can't seem to get to grips with it
I almost touched my fingertips to it
Why oh my, oh my?
Then the stars came out once the lights went out
And I could not speak so I had to shout
And then the moon passed sadly by

The joys are few and far between
I've got the Doomsday app on my iPhone screen
Honey I've seen the truth and it's worth than it seemed
Sins derived and sins original
Lies eclipsed and lies made visible
I'm turning my back on the world and fixing my eyes on the sky

I can't seem to get to grips with it
I almost touched my fingertips to it
Why oh my, oh my?
Then the stars came out once the lights went out
And I could not speak so I had to shout
And then the moon passed sadly by

Love, will I see you again?
'Cause I could do with some mending
Love, will I see you again?
'Cause I'm through with pretending
Will I see you again?
'Cause I could do with some mending
Will I see you again?

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: FIRST FROST/THE VEILS

You've got your feet on the edge and a fire in your breath
But once the winter has gone will there be anyone left?
Now I can't feel a thing
Weird, I can't feel a thing
But "Oh what a beautiful world"
And "Oh what a wonderful thing"

It's the first frost
First frost
It's the first frost
First frost

I want to swim in the ocean, I want a little cheer
I want to do The Loco-Motion and I want another year
They just want to get to the top so they can shit to the bottom
And if you can't beat 'em baby just fuck 'em, yeah fuck 'em

It's the first frost
First frost
It's the first frost
First frost

It's the first frost
First frost
(It wouldn't be as fun without you with me love, you know)
It's the first frost
First frost
(You wrote my name down in the dirty London snow)
It's the first frost
First frost
(Said I was never much for all this christmas cheer)
It's the first frost
First frost
(Just cross your fingers it's a happy new year)

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: THE LEAVERS DANCE/THE VEILS

Berenice
My hands my feet are worn
As much as yours are
And though my head my hands my heart are forming
They still feel worlds apart

Berenice
Beneath it all you're golden
And that's all I´m feeding on
And though my head my hands are growing colder
We move circles now

Berenice there's no release at all
That's not worth dying for

Berenice
My hands my feet are worn
As much as yours are

Berenice there's no release at all
That's not worth dying for
And it's not for our desires but our design
That we all fall apart

Berenice there's no release at all
It's worthless crying for
And I'm on my knees and on my knees and down
'Cause we all fall down

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: THE LETTER/THE VEILS

All the night her dream
Passes by my bed
Undeniable and all she said
She wrote the letter

Hard to find love
Since you arrived here
Harder to find the love
Then pull your body near

She wrote the letter down
She wrote the letter down

I know I know I know
You felt a change in my heart
I know I know I know
The planets ripped you apart
I know I know I know
All the sins they knew no better
I know I know I know

All that I've lost
Is bound to pass
Dying to know
Too afraid to ask
She wrote the letter

Hard to find love
When your a walking blind in here
Go wash your heart in the river
Till the water runs clear

She wrote the letter down
She wrote the letter down

I know I know I know
You felt a change in my heart
I know I know I know
The planets ripped you apart
I know I know I know
When the sins all know no better
I know I know I know

Love, I just want to say it right
Love, I just want to say it right
Goodbye

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: VICIOUS TRADITIONS/THE VEILS

I'd pull my weight if it made any difference
He gave his life for the nine million others
But on his graves written here lies Joseph
His countrys gun and innocent soldier

Fight your way out of this one

He grew a blood red vision for all their good intentions
He made an easy million from a foreign investment
He danced with the devils in beautiful buildings
Affirmative action for a useful reunion

Hed change his name if it made any difference
Now hes waiting in line for the lasting confession
But on his graves written here lies our son Joseph
His countrys gun and innocent soldier

Well fight your way out of this one
Fight your way out of this one
