Train of Thought
04:15
|

Sam with a shape of something in her eye
Convinces herself she’s not wasting her time
Puts blind faith in a vision
“Sam you could be someone else if you try”
She tunes out that voice when the noise gets too quiet
Hurrying towards the station on time
Does not want to miss the train of thought
Departing from her mind
Departing from her mind
Gene in a dream that revolves on a screen
Resolving to look but unable to see
He’s got tunnel television
“Gene you could be someone else if you try”
Sam says to him as she catches his eye
Hurrying towards the station on time
Does not want to miss the train of thought
Departing from his mind
The train of thought is fine
For departing from their minds
Running behind

Webbed Feet
04:31
|
|||
|
Hot to your touch where stories get broken
Demystified with fragments half heard
Attractive to eyes of the fish in the sea
Water resistance growing webbed feet
Growing webbed feet
Fill space between your toes there’s room to grow
Searching for truth disguised or plainspoken
Posing a question falling asleep
Glued to a fish eye blind in the ocean
Water resistance growing webbed feet
Growing webbed feet
Fill space between your toes there’s room to grow
It will sink right to the bottom
It can’t float with all the holes
I would like to think I follow
But the only sound echoes
Growing webbed feet
Fill space between your toes there’s room to grow

help you get off your bedroom side table
help you go to where you need to be
half a story no one there to help you
the other half you can't find or see
whoa mr help you
whoa mr help you
well i've been gone but i can't help to wonder
why you've been gone but i can't help to see
been long enough for you not to remember
you're the only cat who bothers me
whoa mr help you
whoa mr help you
whoa mr help you
whoa mr help you
whoa mr help you
whoa mr help you
whoa mr help you
whoa mr help you

Orange Colossus
04:24

What’s crawling up your back into your head first thing in the morning?
Recycled thoughts shine dull grey and take up space
Back against a wall that doesn’t move do you feel it breathing?
Turn face to face from far away the orange colossus
And all it was
Peripheral nonsense
Can’t use it up
It’s ever growing
Shrinks when you’re thinking
What’s taken over you that fills your mood and empties your pocket?
Automatically acquire more and take up space
Widespread so you can’t begin to see the end
Groupthink with the hive mind orange colossus
And all it was
Peripheral nonsense
Can’t use it up
It’s ever growing
Shrinks when you’re thinking
And all it was
Unusual landscape
All around
It’s ever growing
Shrinks when you’re speaking
Orange colossus
Group think with the hive mind
Shrinks when you’re thinking

Tangerine Beach

Tangerine beach there’s a sparkle to the sand
Burn your hot feet when you jump and try to land
Tangerine beach there’s a sparkle to the sand
Fill your arms’ reach watchi it slip right through your hands
On the white sand beaches you would never leave
Where the tide won’t reach your feet
It’s so nice
Tangerine beach there’s an island on the side
When our eyes meet dance around and try to hide
Sailed cripple creek the ferryman says we’re at sea
Burn your hot feet when you jump and try to land
On the white sand beaches you would never leave
Where the tide won’t reach your feet
Don’t believe your eyes
It’s so nice
Like an advertisement
It’s so nice
Like an advertisement

Cycling
04:03
|
|||
|
Cycling through motions defining cracks in the mind games
Just bend the walls if you’re not satisfied
Staying closer to the tracks you have made deeper and more hollow
There’s no room to breathe
the straight path too narrow
Straight as an arrow
Far down the road or maybe closer once everything crashes
I learn to be calm the storm is distraction
Rewrite the code in the machine speaking a new language
I don’t understand
I will take for granted
I’m disenchanted
All entrusting with apparent ease
Glossing over all the in between
Grains of sand unnoticed by bare feet
Feedback loop on infinite repeat
Rewrite the code in the machine careful and more slowly
Before it picks up too much dangerous steam
Comes out your ears some at a time ample supply
The new mold you’re casting feels more designed
And less inclined
All entrusting with apparent ease
Flossing in between the robot teeth
Grains of sand unnoticed by bare feet
Feedback loop on infinite repeat
Flossing in between my robot teeth
All entrusting with apparent ease
Glossing over all the in between
Grains of sand unnoticed by bare feet
Feedback loop on infinite repeat

Blue Dream
01:58
|

|
Hollywood so far off
I don’t care why
Night after night
Done all of my blue dreaming up
Left alone
long enough to try
What if and then some
Ten times more
As morning escapes the door
It’s okay
This afternoon’s a goldmine anyway
Hollywood is so on top
It never stops
Coming up
Gaze at the stars
Do you care why you care so much?
Enough’s not enough
And never will be as long as
You’re building walls inside the echo chamber
Pick out all your favourite flavours young and try to change
Drawing lines all over the map
Here to there and back again

Smoke City
04:40
|

|
Blue skies falling far apart
Clouds hover together close
At the end we just restart
A mouth open with eyes closed
Out in the street breathing in the smoke
Blue skies falling far apart
Gather in close
At the end we just restart
The city’s filling up with smoke
From your window
Traffic lights all blink red
Waiting for a circle’s end
Smoke city billowing under the orb in the sky glowing red
Smoke city where neon lights burned a hole right through your head
Smoke city billowing under the orb in the sky glowing red
Waiting for a circle’s end
Blue sky in a shopping cart
Wrapped up in smoke
At the end we just restart
City’s filling up with smoke
From your window
Traffic lights all blink red
Waiting for a circle’s end

Memory Banker

Memory banker
what is your interest?
How do you grow new layers of knowledge?
Reading all of the subtext
In a small box in my head
What to remember what to forget?
At the memory bank
Cashing a cheque
Make a deposit
Quickly forget
Withdraw nostalgic
Soft blurry edges
Memory banker
What is your motive?
Randomly showing me things i have noticed
Thought I’d forget
Trying to think a bit less
What to remember what to forget?
At the memory bank
How to invest?
Make a deposit
Quickly forget
Withdraw nostalgic
Soft blurry edges
Memory banker
My memory’s blank
File corrupted
Now my memory’s fucked
