1.
Tenuous and unreal Is a patchwork that sprawls above me There are no flowers and no trees Just blackened buildings A strip-lit room where light never fails Your midnight wounds Exaltation reigns Fear written in muck Panoptic eyes hide fingers There are no flowers and no trees The children here don’t dream
2.
Run Out 03:48
My shadow shifts so restlessly My arteries lined with dead leaves now Shadows shift and disappear Dancing to the drone of this lo-fi city hum Like paint spilling Onto concrete grey We try to redefine What it means to be alive Running Running out of time Running Running through the night Shadow movement cause the ghosts to come alive Silhouettes stop and chase us through this ghost town We’re running We’re running out of time We’re running We’re running through the night Now we’re all in this tonight The consequence of being alive I need to find a way to keep the flame alight We pick up the pace if we're going to make it out alive I won't become a ghost tonight
3.
Open and closed Doors that slam shut Raising voices and tempers I hear them coming on the air Sweating Sweating Feeding off the feeling I’m getting Getting In the heat of the morning Driving Driving Winding down the window Just to feel it speeding Speeding Rushing through my veins A hot afternoon Of final straws Smash glass on marble Heavy steps counting their final paces now I wanna be the guard against the waves I wanna paper up the cracks Until it comes again And feel it come again
4.
Anchors 04:27
My anchors snag on shipwrecks In deep ocean trenches The buried treasure of youth Is an embrace Pull me back through the smoke Before I disappear forever I’ve found a way through Lit by the faintest glow As the walls fall away As I am led astray Pull me back through the smoke Before I disappear Before I choke
5.
Witchcraft 04:23
Palm-reader Come talk to me Come assess my fortune From the code in my finger Use your witchcraft on me So easily under So easy to read Crystal gazer Tell me all that you see A mirage of dead ends Or a labyrinth of leads A skein in formation Or a city of trees You bear sensations Are they what you believe? Or are you offering comfort For what we want to achieve A skein in formation or a city of trees I don't believe in witchcraft And it don't believe in me
6.
Invisible 03:56
Draw the line To lock yourself in A prisoner of your own design One at a time You cut them out Accidental loneliness Tears coming on You want to be Invisible Aerial You don’t blame yourself Always someone else For this friction you’ve caused And when it comes You make yourself Invisible Aerial As soon as it comes So quickly it’s gone
7.
Hypnosis 04:30
We are somewhere between History and the end On the horizon Hypnotise me Tell me stories Make it real Then it comes on in waves Veil bodies in the haze All comes flooding back Between my tongue and teeth So you no longer talk So you no longer breathe So you no longer talk So you no longer think I don’t recognise Who I am Who I’ve been Concentric circles There are no circles There is no meaning Then it comes on in waves Veil bodies in the haze Routine crash eventide City drone drown me out When I woke up from this dream Drenched in sweat I couldn’t breathe
8.
You enjoy the thought of the infinite much more than you would if you were to experience it.
9.
Kale was digging a hole Spent days and nights on it Nobody noticed at first Thought nothing of it His neighbours started to talk As the circumference expanded Started gathering around His thoughts drowned them out Can’t anybody see The colours are calling me Dragging in to me An escape route to fantasy Metal on crystal The sharpest sound to see Sparks come as it hits I found a way out Digging through my enemies Some prisoners want to be Isolated while some want to get free
10.
Aurora 04:25
The clouds should have given it away When they turned red from their distinctive grey The atmosphere collapsing pink Disappears from view as we exit Aurora Breaking through the night Into the unknown And through the pull of gravity I need to navigate the sky Aurora Communication satellites Breakdown survival guide Running on empty Running on adrenaline You gotta be crazy Gunning for Andromeda Aurora keeps us alive Without her we won't survive Aurora Your memory keeps me alive
