When the darkness descends
As the madness impends
And the heat is increasing
When our vessel implodes
As our vision erodes
And the smoke is releasing
??(Feel)?? through the horizon
??(Earth/her)??, the ??(shadow’s/shadows) rising
Weep for us all
Then our souls will collide
Yet the weight will subside
As our love is decreasing
When our flesh turns to dust
And our blood turns to rust
We’ll pass away
And the end it will come
When the tide overruns
Through all surface and meaning
Yet the feelings remain
That the conscience will weigh
Sweetness galvanising
Bleed from the horizon
Cosmic luminating blinding
Pray for us all

No Need For A Name

Tonight a dragon falls, wings aflame
A symbol for a letting go
We send it on its way, as cinders fly
All revel in the flames, we dance in wild abandon
Beneath the cold Wolf Moon we howl
Calling for a new day
Standing in the ashes of the past to warm my feet
The first rays from the East shine on my face
I’m dancing with my shadow, and
I turn to see you’re looking at me
Friends are all around, and love is…
The sun is rising, the longest night is over
And this sleeping soul is waking
Two aces, a conversation, and my heart is asking
Is this the start of something new?
Of course it is, it all is
I hope I’ll see you round, and I feel
No need to call it anything

Talk About Me
03:18
|

|
They’re looking over my shoulder,
Cos all the world is a stage.
I got that whisper, I got that whisper
I got that whisper in my ear again.
And I feel an audience:
The things I do, the words I play,
But I don’t know why they’re here again.
Maybe it’s because I want everyone to talk about me.
They’re watching every single move that I make,
Every single day of my life.
I got a memory, I got a memory,
I got a memory but I don’t think it’s mine.
And there’s a place I go when I close my eyes,
As real as if I look at you now.
It’s a world of lies and imagined slights,
But at least it gives me something to talk about.
Yeah I don’t care what they’re saying,
As long as they talk about me.
Whatever it is that they think I’ve done,
It was me, it was me, it’s always me.
Whatever it was, right or wrong,
It was me, it was me, it’s always me.
Whatever it was that took too long,
It was me, it was me, it’s always me.
But man, I get so bored.
Maybe it’s because I want everyone.
Maybe it’s because I want everyone.
Maybe it’s because I want everyone.
Everyone to talk about.

Surface Tension
06:22
|

|
Stepping out of my skin
Stepping into my world, world that I begin
Stepping out of my skin
Stepping into the world, which I wanna begin
Someone tell me why hearts ache, minds break
This body’s reached its surface tension
I burst this bubble with a cold-hearted intervention
Kill your doubt, this is not my lasting impression
Golden light streams through
The cracks that show that what to come is new
Tides turn with the rise of the sun
I don’t know what comes next but it’s part of the fun
Unspoken tokens of your half-cooked best intentions
I hear your message but it won’t break this surface tension

Terrific Predicament
05:00
|

|
He waits, so patient and wise
But the universe always decides
How it goes, nobody knows what they’ll find
What they’re looking for is already inside
Don’t you look, it’s not for your eyes
But it seems that we can magnify
Put it onstage, it’ll live up to its name
So they can cut it out again
Maybe it goes away
But he knows it every day
You will find a friend
It gets there in the end
Time is no reprieve
For the pain that faces he
When the rubber meets the road
He knows it’s time to go
Maybe it goes away
But he knows it every day
You will find a friend
It gets there in the end

Coffee Halos

Clutch onto the things that mean the most to you
And suffer for old times sake
The lustful quick encounter, a message yet to answer
waits for you to make your move
Coffee halos on my table top, I spilled a drop again
You think they're nothing but they’re not
They’re silhouettes of shame
Of last night’s cheap flight round the sun and back
The way I act's insane
So when I say this is a faithless task, I hold myself to blame
Hide away our sins amongst the unwashed dishes
The callow wishes blown over birthday cakes
A time is fast approaching, when nothing can be broken
furthermore, my feet are sore from all this waiting
There’s something happening
The silence deafens
I don't feel bad but I’ve learned my lesson
It sits right next to me
And looks unpleasant
I try to fight it but I'm not that present
Coffee halos on my table top, I spilled a drop again
You think they're nothing but they’re not
They’re silhouettes of shame
Of last night’s cheap flight round the sun and back
The way I act's insane
So when I say this is a faithless task, I hold myself to blame
Expectations never, falter like the words
I spoke too soon, whilst searching for something new

Picture Perfect Painting
04:45

As you see, he is the man
Going travelling, as you can
Don’t know, don’t understand, but he
could take your hand, got a
Picture perfect painting inside my skull, and I
Don’t know, if he comes back, gonna take that
Picture perfect painting inside my skull
I don’t know, where’d he go
He didn’t say, no-one knows
The tile floor, is all you saw
The birthday suit, the bathroom door
He’s doing good, even though I cannot say
He’s doing good, even though that was was yesterday
Picture perfect painting inside my skull
Picture perfect painting inside my skull
I don’t know, where’d he go
He didn’t say, no-one knows
Two girlfriends, two missed calls
The birthday suit, the bathroom door
It’s been years since I have heard that name
Dear God, how have you not aged?
Left us speechless
We’re all speechless
Yeah I’m speechless
Jumping the gun to address the elephant
The way that you left didn’t feel like an accident
Might take this life off, just for the hell of it
Forget that last line, that’s enough of that
Look out fairy, caught in a spider’s web
Don’t get carried away inside your head
No time limit in this eternal state
No roman numeral for this landscaped eight
When I’m onstage, even if I’m scared
When I’m at home, and I’m all unprepared
Don’t be afraid if I’m acting like I’m wrong
Keep on going, for the sake of the song
I got this feeling of walking home to you
I got this feeling…
Picture perfect painting inside my skull
Picture perfect painting inside my skull
Picture perfect painting inside my skull
