Back on the Road
03:29
|

Back on the road again
A mirage that won’t reappear
Longing to see the lights
Take me to paradise
Something you can’t ignore
The sound of a million stars
Dragging you down to hell
I can’t wait to get there again
No more entropy
Grab your legs and break on free
The sky is yours to climb
Open wide and take a ride
I can't wait to get there again
Back on the road again
It looks a lot different than the last time I was here
I swear this short cut was quicker
I swear we already passed that canyon
I swear that old man has been watching this entire time
Where do we go from here
Lusting for an elixir of youth
Still longing to see the lights
Where's the turning for paradise?
Take me back
Show me how to breathe
Take me back
See them on their knees
Take me back
Watch the fire climb
Take me back
So I can be alive
Take me back
Put me on a pedestal
Take me back
To warm sensibility
Back on the road again
A mirage that won’t reappear
Longing to see the lights
Take me to paradise
Something that makes you scream
Sirens begging you to open the door
The smile hiding a hideous lie
I can’t wait, I can't wait to get there again

Give it All Away
04:28
|
|||
I’m making time for a time change
I’m chasing luck in my own way
I’m changing out my stereo
I’m breaking out my head space
Got a vision of synthesis
The new technoopolis
Not powered by enterprise
Robot fish and metal flies
A world without crime
Strict adherence to the hive-mind
A dance towards the future
We’ll all be left behind
You will never beat
The sound of the gun
So settle down
And give it all away
There’s a train called mysterious
Filled with creatures imperious
It’s pulling up fast
Where do we go?
Terraform all empty space
New cities on an interface
No room for the primitive
In the new techno-opolis
Just follow the ending
Locked in, ready for a new start
Blend in to the dream
Till the end of history
Tearing
Breathing
Wishing
Killing
Yelling
Beaming
Seething
Dreaming
You will never beat
The sound of the gun
So settle down
And give it all away

Out of Your Hands
04:02
|
|||
Sitting at the back of the room
Living a new life in your eyes
Trying to change myself
Wanting to be anyone else
Living for kicks
Jumping on board
Taking the chance
Out of your hands
Stepping out on to the street
Focus on the sound of my feet
Hoping to look and see
A little more empathy
So thrilling to be
Caught in a dream
Knowing the end
Is out of your hands

Grab Hold Gently
03:53
|
|||
The supermarket
Boundless decision
Picking the right one
Picking anything
Up or down
Pink or green
Autonomy
Distilled down to canned beans
The rational
Human being
Exercising free will
So certain of complexity
Where do we go if we break
The mechanism that keeps us
Cycling through pre-set modes
To suit the stage we’re born to play
Quiet down
Peacefully
Simplify
Your memory
The rational
Human being
Exercising free will
So certain of complexity
Grab hold gently
Sink in to the screen
Look down what do you see?
Dig deep and try again
Quiet down
Peacefully
Simplify
Your memory
The rational
Human being
Exercising free will
So certain of complexity
Grab hold gently
Sink in to the screen
Look down what do you see?
Dig deep and try again

Sleepwalking
02:19
|
|||
Down on a bridge making a scene
There's laughter bleeding out of the TV
Sky's folding up into three
Making space for all the obscene
Sipping wine from a cold metal palm
Dizzy stuck wondering asking for the time
The river runs faster the closer you get
The river drys up when you choose to forget
Sleepwalking
I can’t be in my head
I can't be in my head
I can't be in my head
Cooking strange flesh on the end of a knife
One foot in the water, one foot on my knee
Staring into nothing just me and the breeze
There's an itch on brain I can’t seem to reach
Time for a swim
Gently down the stream
Grab a rock to help weigh you down
Look up at the stars
Sleepwalking
Can't get out my head
Can't get out my head
Can't get out my head

My Senses
02:34
|
|||
Feel the sky grow old
But don’t let your mind change
It didn’t add up quite right
Just a problem for a new day
Take a breath in the breeze
A chance at harmony
Relieve me
Of my senses
No one else
Brings the feeling
Watch the sun burn out
Its not unexpected
Always believe in the sound
Where peace emerges
Reach for air
Keep it all together
Relieve me
Of my senses
No one else
Brings the feeling

Anything Left to Lose
03:14
|
|||
I don’t have anything left to lose
In fact I don’t ever want to choose
Between life and sensibility
Love and warm security
I’m hanging on
I don’t have any way to calm my nerves
The moment as the glass smashed on the floor
Forever in the spiral
Forever looping forward
I’m hanging on
Breathe in dust
Stare at the wall
Paint your skin and grasp the noise
Drain your mind
Picture a ship
Tear away from the design
Make a name for yourself
Hand on the door don’t let it swing shut
Pray for rain, clean the air
Take a long look at your shadow running in
Ten feet tall six eyes and a grin
Five more seconds and I think I’m done in
Evil looking man and a wicked smelling church
Paranoid reflections of another man’s ghost
The day is stretching
The clock is melting
Fingers curled up and my are teeth rotting in
Room is spinning fast, I’m latched on the wall
Uneasy dreams got me feeling like Gregor
I don’t have anything left to lose
In fact I don’t ever want to choose
Between life and sensibility
Love and warm security
I’m hanging on
Breathe in dust
Stare at the wall
Paint your skin and grasp the noise
Drain your mind
Picture a ship
Tear away from the design

Running Your Mouth
03:50
|
|||
Running your mouth letting them all find out
You’re leaving for another world
Building a ship with any scrap you can find
Today is the day getting away from this quiet life
And all the world will see
The man you used to be
Swim through the open sky
Blast you into outer space
Reach up
Forget it all
Running your mouth, someone is tracing your steps
A hand in the dark ruining all your designs
They think you’re insane
What did you see in the sky last night?
All the world will see
The man you tried to be
A cloud is speaking your name
Pulling you through the stars
Reach up for an answer
Forget all the questions
Stare into the vacuum
Don’t look when it stares back
