Do you steal all you can take Bite marks and scratches Give it back before you go Elbows and knees Do you still steal ‘til it’s gone?

Sempre refeita há de chegar Did you see me let go of myself? Como vento tudo a lembrar Before I lose sight Of that picture of you A risada que você me empresta Better place it face down on the bed Esse mesmo faço favor de devolver Porém a singeleza do seu gesto Notice how nature Esse é presente deixa eu ficar Replaces what was mine But still leaves me to drown in my style Razaõ em estado de alegria Reinvent remind me A luz que te alisa esta luz pode estar How we stuck to our fast Ideograma se voçê de despe Fasten me down E agora se veste que palavra vai assemelhar O simples fato do cair da noite Some subatomic machine Promises lovers make Meu coração quer aceitar Já é o bastante podemos celebrar Where influences breed When it’s 2 late Com sua força de vontade As quatro estaçoes naõ saõ do ano Can’t even imitate yet Quer rejeitar a rejeição Some subatomic machine Data dos anos sessenta vamos sair pra jantar Someplace before we feel Quer evocar o que só chega a vontade Where influences breed You Can Keep It Mouthest mouth eyest eyes Can’t even imitate yet Se insinuar se aconchegar Without due caution in the way you walk Stunning – as a stungun My forms are - Até nos cantos mais sonoros dessa sala Silver labyrinth, parrot in the air Up there where clouds are fuel Someplace before we feel O que nos resta do incomensurável Ever remade, bound to arrive Floors we might end up on weapons É passageiro, não menos puro, é universal Like the wind to recall it all My forms are – feelings Manners Nerves never pay light bills Air before inventing wind The laugh that you lend me My heart wants to accept Wields worlds like – weapons An option of mutiny like That’s the one I mean, I do you the favor of returning A misbehaved classroom Its own possible devastation However, the artlessness of your gesture Premetronomic glee And a substitute teacher Not that it doesn’t want to take possession Is a present let me keep it An alternative Blood before we know how to bleed Of everything in one single captivation An option of mutiny like Rain is tears – from the Reason in a state of happiness: Upon arriving and introducing itself A misbehaved classroom Hands before hands were held The light that smoothes you out, that light can stay Respecting all the manners of the house And a substitute teacher Iris of cowardly lion crying Ideogram, if you undress It won’t neglect self-celebration Compared 2 your- And then dress, what word will you resemble? Gigl with no "e" two "g"s And before the hour it will surely not withdraw Rain is tears – from the Write before we know how to lead The simple fact of nightfall Split bite multiply Potty mouth – My heart wants to accept Is sufficient. We can celebrate Iris of cowardly lion crying With all of its willpower Saxes: Micah Gaugh and Casey Benjamin The Four Seasons don’t belong in a year Wants to reject rejection Compared 2 your- Additional vocals: Beans from the Anti-Pop Consortium Wants to evoke what just shows up when it’s ready It was built in the sixties.

Prefeelings 4:48 Sua possivel devastação Is passing, no less pure, universal Some subatomic machine Well groomed in Não que não queira se a poderar Stunning – as a stungun Biggest hill highest heels De tudo numa só captação Acoustic guitar and percussion: Vinicius Cantuária Where influences breed Tar and feathers My forms are – feelings Never fall and not roll Quando chegar e se apresentar 6. Ex-Preguiça 4:36 Can’t even imitate yet Worth the price Respeitando todos os modos dessa casa Sem força pra acordar Wields worlds like – weapons Of a lollipop or less Não vai deixar de se celebrar Preguiça de dormir Someplace before we feel Do you think you’re breathing air?

Tone 4:19 Tudo a girar sem se espelhar There’s only so much strength Tone We can only venture so far from shore Stay calm I live in fear Divido a cama com você We can only be so unsure before Keep calm I can’t go near Divido tudo que há We doubt we can ever move Let the room outgrow the walls My imagination Tudo continua sendo um só Resemblances free fall No natural law Evolutions upon evolutions Can’t proceed by degrees Duvido vento e maré Violin and viola: Eyvind Kang Duvido vento e maré A tempest of sweat a reflecting pool Lost in variation Additional drums: Vinicius Cantuária Duvido fundo areia e ar Around the ankles over the streets Two by two now Melodica and trumpet: Michael Leonhart Two by two now Entre assistir e acariciar Dizzy and dizzy and on in serenity Sonic thing: . Noise bits: I-Sound Get on all fours Silly calculations Ex-Laziness To turn to stone is not a vice 9. O Nome Dela 3:42 All fingers all neck Too weak to wake up Turn your face to look at the light O Nome Dela Chame ela com o nome dela Unforseeably dark Too lazy to sleep Rehearse the effort that will suffice Unforseeably dark Vê se ela vem, vê se ela vem All anticipation I look for shade by moonlight Dreams of instinct dreams of ice All anticipation Chamei de linda, chamei de bela Make it gradual Everything seems to imagine But no one goes to sleep tonight Vê se ela vem, vê se ela vem Make it gradual Tone says it all What already is Extra pride will find its uses Tone says it all A moreninha voçê me aparece Impure distraction Once casual objects are carnival objects A moreninha voçê me aparece Será que já vinha descendo ali? Don’t take fear too far No one here sleeps tonight Será que já vinha descendo ali? I abstract without wandering A moreninha voçê me aparece Let love be salacious It’s not a dream and not the sea Violin: Eyvind Kang Será que veio porque eu chamei? Hot lights hot dots Everything spinning without reflection Everything spinning without reflection Big room too tight 8. Resemblances 4:34 Her Name Big room too tight I divide the bed with you Your face slips away from your expression Call her by her name Where was that terrace? Divide all there is Your expression unmoored from your mouth See if she comes, see if she comes My eyes won’t pounce Everything remains as one Weather disengaged from the air I called her pretty, I called her beautiful I won’t tense up Chill wind blows out of the south See if she comes, see if she comes Semi-celebration I doubt the wind and tide Chocolate may melt Doubt sea floor, sand and air Stay calm Oh Moreninha you just show up No makeup makeup run Between watching and caressing Keep calm Was that you going by down from there? I’ll keep my patience Keep the drives below Then senselessness Separate my thoughts Turns and makes a fist at me I roll up to the edge My random thoughts And look over the side How random is that? A walking walk on Wherever I point my jet Are we rare enough? Billowing colors fly Evenly enthralled Then the choices I’ve made A room a nation Escort me like a flock in the sky Up on those lips All my allegiances That curl, that pout And those I merely pledged Just don’t seem fitting And all those animals Legs are people too And the way they make up their minds Ribbons gone cloaks off They too have their riddles Noticed decorated anointed and knighted Saxes: Micah Gaugh and Casey Benjamin Acoustic guitars: Vinicius Cantuária. Cuica: Cyro Baptista Additional vocals: Vinia Mojica 12. E Aí Esqueço 3:05 11. Interior Life 4:10 Vigio suprimo e aí esqueço disso tudo And so I chose an animal Disfarço escondo e aí esqueço tudo isso I draw my strength from him O sol se põe enquanto o dia ja está amanhecendo And when I’m weak lento I appeal to his tricky side Vontade cai com força sobre todo meu desmedimento And when I’m strong lento minto atento I think of the way he treats his child When I’m young Ao se desluzir o amor resplende I picture things that make him cry Ao se refazer o amor resplende Way down inside And Then I Forget In some interior life Watch over, suppress and then forget all this Disguise, hide and then forget this all When I lie down He dreams me back at me The sun sets while the day is already dawning When I’m tired Slow Beauty is such a surprise Will falls hard on my immoderation Art Direction: Diego Cortez Slow, I lie attentive Design: Matthew Barney, Tony Morgan
