1.	…no, it’s my face! it’s like your face is made up of 1 million tiny versions of my face 01:38	lyrics	buy track
I’ve been Warned not to hold Beautiful things I will only bring them Damage Yet I still reach out Night and Early morning skies Now remind me of What once orbited my Planet A permanence revolving ....was believed Until I heard you say - “Im letting go of The force obstructing the moon It’s been clouded for far too long It’s time that I shine as Bright as a sun That does not revolve around you”
2.	i thought that you were saying that I had a 2019 new years ET body 01:03	lyrics	buy track
Ok I’m done I’ve given up Surrender - you’ve won I’ve had enough Give me numb Nostalgic dump Limbic system dumb What is love? Seems there’s No way We’ll make it Out of this alive
3.	this one for instance, is drowning, yet holding composure quite well 03:37	lyrics	buy track
Come on - just admit it Now the coast has cleared You’ve always been more than alive You are the same we are alright No-one around us They cannot hear The man beneath the pond survived One bucket at a time Even when the darkness falls When the beauty seems to hide The shapes the colors Still remain Just not so vivid are the lines Nothing is as simple As they claim A rough crawl down the attic stairs To step out of the frame Don’t say nothing at all My dear
4.	lost at sea sharpening this knife in an inflatable raft 03:03	lyrics	buy track
Wondering what you say While talking in your sleep And if your voice Carries 2 me Writing the words down 2 these songs Just 2 repeat Sung only 2 you In my dreams Messages on aged rock And carved Into the trees Have they been Left out here For me? Counting the hours As I sift through The debris Fragmented From The lies Of 3 We’ve cut this union from It’s privates 2 It’s throat The debt that’s paid is But a fraction Of what’s owed This ship is Going down tonight
5.	shadows can make life more tolerable sometimes 04:00	lyrics	buy track
We sit we wait we smile Watch as it fades in style We’ve known it all the while These medications Just can’t help us anymore Try to fix what Hasn’t broke down It’s just standard protocol Meditations, lacking patience Just can’t help us to ignore We feel broke off We feel shut down Just be glad to feel at all
