The Bitter Space
03:43
|
|||
Wake me if you please
Though I’m still dreaming
Quiet violent breeze
Sweeps over me
This soul can barely breathe
A harlot in the crowd who’s
silently weeping
Akin to a black cloud
That keeps the clowns inside
I’m a creature at the feast
Waiting for the sweet taste
Of a moment unreleased in
The bitter space
Silent matinees
Exposing our skeletons
A hush controls the stage
The second act is sure to please you
I’m a creature at the feast
Waiting for the sweet taste
Of a moment unreleased in
The bitter space
I’ve never been fearful in the least
Of the ghosts that haunt me
When my drunken mind belongs in
The bitter space
Lost in a familiar place
A bitter space
Still a creature at the feast
Waiting for the sweet taste
Of a moment unreleased in
The bitter space
I’ve never been fearful in the least
For the ghosts that haunt me
When my drunken mind belongs to
The bitter space

The Big Ego
03:02
|
|||
Just a little star in a meaningless place
In the shadow of the moonlight
Seems to talk a lot but he never says a word
Like a lonely politician
Take off your mask, and breathe
Costume’s getting old, it won’t hide an empty soul
Like a painting without courage
Let’s all pity the big ego
Where everyone’s your friend but there’s no one left to spend the night
Swollen eyes, fail to see
Just a little bruise is the topic of your blues
Without a single note of wisdom
Forget your past, and leap
Life is what you crave, but you’re digging quite a grave
Put the shovel down and listen
Let’s all pity the big ego
Where everyone’s your friend but there’s no one left to spend the night
Let’s raise our glass for the big ego
Where everything is yours but there’s nothing that can buy a friend
There’s no place like home, to go
There’s no place like home, to go
There’s no place like home, to go
There’s no place to go
Let’s all pity the big ego
Where everyone’s your friend but there’s no one left to spend the night
Let’s raise our glass for the big ego
Where everything is yours but there’s nothing that can buy a friend

Adalene
03:59
|
|||
Rain comes falling
On the ageing rooftop
Drops are crawling
Through the broken window
Why is she crying
The words are locked away
Time slipping slowly
Is she sleeping?
Let her go
Is she dreaming?
Silver glow
Sleepless beauty
A fairytale projection
Smile so moody
As if she’s up for re-election
Adalene, Adalene
Colouring his name
Trapped in the blue
Is she sleeping?
Let her go
Is she dreaming?
Silver glow
Silver glow (x3)
My Adelene
My Adelene
Is she sleeping?
Let her go
Is she dreaming?
Silver glow
Is she screaming?
Let her go
Is she dreaming
Silver glow
Let her go (x3)

Anxiety Boy
05:25
|
|||
Fear has consumed me
I am my demise
Frozen panic filling up my lungs
Could it be from melodies unsung?
A fly caught in circles
Anxiety boy strikes again
Can’t even protect himself
And when the city’s in need of a hero
He cowers behind shaded windows
Run
Can I venture out beyond the nest?
Will I escape self made house arrest?
Sounds of black and yellow fill my head
Can I block it out and play pretend?
Cry like a spoiled child
Anxiety boy strikes again
Can’t even protect himself
And when the city’s in need of a hero
He cowers behind shaded windows
Am I covered in sheets?
Am I smothered so sweet?
Anxiety boy strikes again
Won’t even protect himself
So when the city’s in need of a hero
He cowers behind shaded windows
Run

Eremitic Man
03:08
|
|||
Born a bankrupt boy
Silver spoon astray
From my mouth
Now I want fed again
Sean was a working man
Under Uncle Sam
Say goodbye
They sent him off to die
Eremitic man
Always makes the rent
Left without a cent
They call him Mr. American
He has his finger twitching on the gun
Sean is a working man
With no exit plan
Say goodbye
To the fourth of July
Eremitic man
Ignorance is bliss
He’s gone, say goodbye
To Mr. American pie
Sean was a drunken man
Face first in the sand
What a guy
Lost in his last goodbye
Eremitic man

Aurora
03:52
|
|||
Euphorically glowing through the window
In a wonderful haze
Resting your head on satin pillows
In the quiet of dawn
And if you let me fall in love with you
Aurora, my dearest one who’s awoken me
Affection in blue, falling with fever
In an endless parade
And if you let me fall in love with you
Aurora, my dearest one who’s awoken me
And if you’re floating in an hour glass
We can linger here
Trouble eroding like a fading man
Embracing cancer
Fills our darkness with delight
A calm Sunday drive, peace in the slow lane
Bliss in a tourist charade
A world wrapped in blue, journeys of strangers
In a timeless parade
And if you let me fall in love with you
Aurora, my dearest one who’s awoken me
Aurora (x5)

Simple Little Haven
03:00
|
|||
Says that she loves me, today
Glowing affections, array
The nesting bird has flown
And I’ve never felt alone
When I’m with you
You’ve got me running, got me loving, got a simple little haven that I built with you
I’m spending all my days growing up with you
A little rooftop on a cottage with a little soul, to love me
Oh, how she’ll dream, tonight
Sand smothering toes, in white
I fall to pieces, in spite of you
The lasting words have spoken
An extra sense awoken
When I’m with you
You’ve got me running, got me loving, got a simple little haven that I built with you
I’m spending all my days growing up with you
A little rooftop on a cottage with a little soul, to love me
I’m spending all my days growing up with you
A little rooftop on a cottage with a little soul, to love me
Better in life to fall

Goodbye Crazy
04:17
|
|||
Goodbye crazy, oh yeah
Goodbye my tiny happy friend
Goodbye crazy, oh yeah
This crowded kinship has to end
Followed you home
My little lonely one
A drooling dog without a bone
That has no drive to run
Are you alone
What say we have some fun
The laughter from the garden gnome
Is melting in the sun
Goodbye crazy, oh yeah
Goodbye my tiny happy friend
Goodbye crazy, oh yeah
This crowded kinship has to end
Goodbye crazy
Goodbye crazy, oh yeah
A monkey in a rotting tree
Goodbye crazy, oh yeah
Lock me up and hide the key
Cozy and warm
Inside my padded room
A church bell rang a sinner’s song
The matriarch in bloom
Rock me to sleep
Goodbye crazy, oh yeah
Goodbye my tiny happy friend
Goodbye crazy, oh yeah
This crowded kinship has to end
Goodbye crazy, oh yeah
A monkey in a rotting tree
Goodbye crazy, oh yeah
Lock me up and hide the key
Goodbye crazy, oh yeah
Wake me up from endless sleep
Goodbye crazy, oh yeah
A shallow grave at six feet deep
Goodnight my dear, forever
Sleep little one
Goodnight my dear, forever
Sleep little one

Terminator
07:59
|
|||
I’m so tired
My head is clouded grey
Stumbles slowly
Yellowed sink
A phantom in the mirror
Sees my soul
Isn’t it time that you
Terminate perception
Light your way through the darkness
Hidden star, seen afar
Owning the lonely
Terminate deception
Lie your way to the truth now
Honesty, cowers free
Killing them slowly
Terminate unsettled space
I’m so scared
I fear I’ve grown too old
To be loved
Ageing wretch
The reaper ever near
Calls my name
Isn’t it time that you
Terminate, Terminate
Terminate perception
Light your way through the darkness
Hidden star, seen afar
Owning the lonely
Terminate deception
Lie your way to the truth now
Honesty, cowers free
Killing them slowly
Terminate unsettled space
Light the space between the martyrs
On their knees before the charter
Cater to the time
Captive to the time
Take care of your own
Child of the unknown
Let’s explore the stars, my little darling
Glowing dusk
Let’s explore the stars, my little darling
Light our way
Terminate perception
Light your way through the darkness
Hidden star, seen afar
Owning the lonely
Terminate deception
Lie your way to the truth now
Honesty, cowers free
Killing them slowly
Terminate unsettled space
Terminate, Terminate
Cater to the time
Captive to the time
Take care of your own
Child of the unknown
Let’s explore the stars, my little darling
Glowing dusk
Let’s explore the stars, my little darling
Light our way

The Blue
03:56
|
|||
I’m alone
All alone
So alone
Alone on the sand
I’m alone
All alone
So alone
Alone on the sand
Count the hours
I’ve been lying here
Only see the blue
Skipping pebbles
A boy left marooned
Lies before the blue
Left me on the shore
So they could explore
Everything you’ll find
Beyond the blue
Left me on the shore
Guess I’m doing fine
Nothing left but time
Taking what is mine
From the blue
Guess I’m fine
All I’ve known is gone
I’m alone
All alone
So alone
Alone on the sand
I’m alone
All alone
So alone
Alone on the sand
Violent waves
Seem so desperately calm
Drifting through the blue
Left me on the shore
So they could explore
Everything you’ll find
Beyond the blue
Left me on the shore
Guess I’m doing fine
Nothing left but time
Taking what is mine
From the blue
Guess I’m fine
All I’ve known is gone
Feel the blue
Alone in the blue
Left in the blue
Feel the blue
I’m alone
All alone
So alone
Alone on the sand
I’m alone
All alone
So alone
Alone on the sand

A Shadow Left Unknown
04:27
|
|||
I climb the tree
Where neither one of you can find me
The leaves have changed, you see
I’m tearing at the roots to flee
A boy becomes a man who walks alone
A shadow left unknown
And those who travel light
Have nothing left to hide
I’d like to stay
The door is locked
Here in my tree
I hear the faintest sound of a crow scream
Can I be a man who walks alone
A shadow left unknown
And those who travel light
Have nothing left to hide
I am scared to walk alone
My shadow left unknown
And those who travel light
Have nothing left to hide

The Last Dance
03:30
|
|||
I like the way you’re looking at a satellite
Can’t you see
The girl in the corner, in your line of sight
Set her free
Drop your device
Ooo tell me
What do you have in store
For the last dance of romance
Like a spoiled child at play
There’ll be tears by the end of the day
Hey, Hey
Typing with two fingers in the dead of night
Go to sleep
Go to sleep
Drop your device
Ooo tell me
What do you have in store
For the last dance of romance
You’re a spoiled child again
There’ll be tears by the end of the day
