Look At Us! 04:52
Lyrics: Travelling down I don't know where I am going Gazing around What do I do Covering ground They don’t know but all I see is you I want to see me looking at you Looking at me They all looked at me They all thought that I was crazy What do I see Demons staring back me And as I try to keep the time I don't know where I'm going

Heartstrings 02:26
Lyrics: Pulling on my heartstrings She walks out through the door Caring to ignore Me lying on the floor Karolina Karolina can’t you see You’re the kind of girl I’ve wanted for me Never far away when I needed her Well I know her but she’s not very strong But I don’t mind And now she's pulling on my heartstrings She walks out through the door Caring to ignore Me lying on the floor And now I think that it is over I’ve tried to hard to keep my promises to you But you’ve never gave me reason To stick around anymore Sentimental feelings cloud my actions once again And when I think I can win she pulls me down again. Pulling on my heartstrings She walks out through the door Caring to ignore The fate she left untold

Lyrics: This is an intricate wisdom One that you've never seen or heard from before Interactions arising Surface heat is moving down to the core Essence intertwining Bridge the gap that you might cross this time I don't know why you won't see me in the right Eukaryotic confusion Going out on a limb that's no longer there Close the door behind me Go outside to seek the red light flares Sadness, madness, affliction Lunar landscape fades before I die If you want to know about me I want to know about you

Hideaway 02:31
Lyrics: The day we met a thought passed through my open mind I couldn’t decide whether you would be the one for me Holding on to phantom ideas gone You were obliged to see what it means to me This will be the day When I find you in a different way This will be the day when I’m gone In my hideaway As passers by watch with envious eyes I look upon your face and see what jealousy has bred in me So I smiled and walked away Slipping back into olden ways Revisiting the moments gone away Now we’ve met and I’ve come to regret the things we haven’t done Something else to pass the time when we are not alone

Magic Wands 03:34
Lyrics: It feels right to take things slowly When it's just so goddamn lowly And you're burning in from the outside And you're getting taken for a joy ride Wands without magic, pentatonic Pentateuch Might as well take pedagogy on a fluke When sycophancy takes fancy straight en masse Well, you might as well get down and kiss some Asking questions of parents The answers to which they daren't Relinquish, due to sheer transparency While somewhere, a lawn gnome sings longingly That it's not me who should wake to this sleeping life Well, shit sucks - and sucking shit supports your wife And as you wave your magic wand just one more time There's little hope you'll make it out with a sound mind And body - viral infections Are just a little better than rejection. Validate the dates you're there, the ones you're not Your knotted stomach now acting as a clock Ticking and pulsing, and counting out the time As you sift through a river of the slime From mankind - but don't raise your whisper to a shout No resurrection from this tomb, there's no way out There's no way out...

Fifth Child 04:00
Lyrics: Fifth child in a family of four Fifth child he don’t exist any more Fifth child I knew you so well You sure ain’t up in heaven and you sure ain’t in hell Fifth child quiet as can be Fifth child what do you see Fifth child you left a hole Where your thoughts and feelings should go Oh every day I put away another trinket that you left behind Where did it go I want to know where you left my mind. Fifth child you ain’t any fun Fifth child you’ve barely begun Fifth child is life easier yet Now that you don’t have to rewind or reset Sometimes I wonder how it would have been if I had another next of kin Fifth child is life better off Fifth child I thought I heard you cough

Lyrics: i.) Paradigm ii.) The Cherry Grove Spaced out by a cherry grove in the light of dawn Graceful sit they paradigm lay upon the lawn Chasing glory unaware that the sign has passed Great delusion sputters out just above the grass No solution for the problem that’s been plaguing them for oh so many years Pale allusion faintly giving off a ray of light to the new mortality Testing whether heightened eyes give us what they should Rest easy they’re patented for the common good Protect nations from attacks other men do lay Some beliefs necessitate others just relay Come along and you’ll see what we can find Maybe this can salvage it from decline If you were to leave you life now is the time The narrow path will leave you torn and tried The night watchmen gravitate to the force they feel Tethered by a letter drawn until the night is sealed Slowly creeping through the aisles carefully we seek Spectacle is gathering for the new mystique Breaking silence unaware that all the lines are drawn suspended in the air Blissful violence gladly giving up all control to the new conspiracy Carry home the remains of what was left Just enough to regain our lost profits Damage gone work is done and you will not forget The time we spent to pay for all of that progress iii.) Breaking Silence The remains... the remains... the remains of what was left iv.) What Was Left In time I'll regain another one You'll see
