I've got nothing left 2 lose
But systematic blues
Always I'm in the sea
All day I'm next 2 me
Reaching out towards the sun
Chasing moments on the run
I need a vacant spot
2 park my patient heart
I'm alone again
On the beach & then
Sunburn & blistered dreams
Smoking & memories
I've got half a book 2 read
All my hopes are out drifting
Back in upon the tide
New wants go 4 a ride
I'm not open or easy
I'm just lost & then breezy
Not looking 4 a cloud
2 shape my thoughts of doubt
I'm just sitting in the sand
Watching waves wash on the land
I'm alone again
On the beach & then
Sunburn & blistered dreams
Smoking & memories
I've got half a book 2 read
All my hopes are out drifting
Back in upon the tide
New wants go 4 a ride
I'm alone again
On the beach & then
Sunburn & blistered dreams
Smoking & memories
I've got half a book 2 read
All my hopes are out drifting
Away
From me
I've got nothing left 2 lose
But systematic blues
Always I'm in the sea
All day I'm not in me
Reaching out towards the sun
Chasing moments on the run
I need a vacant spot
2 park my patient heart
I'm alone again
On the beach & then
Sunburn & blistered dreams
Smoking & memories
I've got half a book 2 read
All my hopes are out drifting
Back in upon the tide
New wants go 4 a ride

Receiving

Grace
I'm feeling something as I stay
I'm all in nothing as I pray
I'm on my knees cos I'm receiving
Turn
& feel the fire that will burn
I've got a heart that needs 2 learn
I'm begging please cos I'm receiving
Oh I am needing
Oh I am pleading
Shape
The taste is salty on my lips
The rain that falls in this eclipse
I'm always ready 2 receive it now

These days go by
Slipping past the heart into the mind
These plays we act
Escaping from the us & where we're at
Stagecraft
Stagecraft
The art comes round
Pulling us forever 2 the ground
Performance of
The light we form in darkness up above
Come on
Feel this
Freedom
Of our bliss
These fashion wings
Brings us closer 2 our wants & needs
In character
Playing out our part in moves & words
Stagecraft

Forever Is Always Gone
03:41
|
|||
|
Rain
It fills the wind
2day
Nowhere 2 go
Not far
The evening shade
2 want
The night 2 flow
Twilight waits
& I can't take this want
My life fades
Forever is always gone
New grief
2 wander on
No need
2 fall away
Relief
2 know it's gone
Belief
A need 2 stay
Twilight waits
& I can't take this want
My life fades
Forever is always gone
This rain
It falls on me
2day
I'll let it be
Low clouds
2 linger on
My doubt
Will fall 2 ruin
Twilight waits
& I can't take this want
My life fades
Forever is always gone

Follow The Heart
02:47
|
|||
|
I ran away
I chased the sun
4ever the lost years on the run
The shade of the weight
The cost of the chains on me
I'm back on my knees
The want & the please
The shape of the compass that I need
The feeling of want
2 own all this ruin, ecstasy
Follow the heart
Follow the heart
The center of now
The faith & the doubt
What's always an inside looking out
The freedom 2 go
Far out & not know, this me
The nite & the moon
The warmth of the room
The taste of the wine in autumn bloom
The reach & the take
The harvest will wait, in dreams
Follow the heart
Defiance
Follow the heart
The silence
Never enough
The bread & the cup
The following down into the up
The fading of dawn
The rise & the ruin, in me
Follow the heart
Follow the heart

Something
03:09
|

|
Hope
It's all just a dream
Letting it go
& fall in the seams
2day
No different in time
A memory of mine
That faded away
Nothing
This doubt
It keeps up the faith
A shadow that shouts
In pleasure & pain
This grief
It holds all I need
I beg & I plead
2 make it make sense
I believe in the dark
Believe in the light
With all of my doubt falling
This fear
It's always so near
A comfort at times
So dark & so clear
& now
I follow the dream
Down in to seams
Broken open by faith
Nothing

A New Must
02:37
|
|||
|
Without a dream we know
All over the seas we flow
4ever is always just
A new must
Lost in the nite we weave
Caught in the light receive
The answers that seem 2 be
A new must
Walk all the way
2 the sea
& back
Change we feel
The river that our heart feels
Caught up in all the deals
A new must
To-nite is another day
Walk'n away 2 stay
Watching the stars shine bright
A new must

& A Lotta Reasons
02:37
|
|||
|
Blue waves
Caught my eye
Wednesday
Went on by
4 this
I'm lost in time
Or bliss
It cut my prime
& a lotta reasons
& a lotta reasons
& a lotta reasons
Make me not
What moon
Light's my sky
Short bloom
In the nite
Change shape
Walk on by
Tuesday
4got 2 try
& a lotta reasons
& a lotta reasons
& a lotta reasons
Make me not
oh, I will fall
No, & I will not

Another Road
03:03
|
|||
|
Change
I'm breathing again
In the rain
Lost in the wind
Wait
2 go it alone
Or stay
I just don't know
Why
The reasons that fall
Try
I need a new all
Another road
Leave
& wander away
Need
2 fade into day
Known
The past that I take
Shown
Mistakes that I made
Reach
2 always return
Each
New day is the turn
Another road

Getting No Home
03:16
|
|||
|
The shape of the dawn in the nite
The waiting 2 make it right
No healing or comfort once it's gone
The feeling of hopeless in the ruins
The pain at the way it could be
The mountains we lost 2 the sea
Of industry, greed & arrogance
No caring at all 4 what was once
Hey now
We're getting no home again
Hey now
We're burning our hope & then?
The trees that were once a defense
The shade & the sweet summer scent
An ocean of green & brown & earth
The motion of stillness. Death. Rebirth
The wildness that held us so calm
The creatures we never knew of
A universe locked inside a place
A mirror of our own weathered face
Hey now
We're getting no home again
Hey now
We're burning our hope & then?
Indifference
I wonder
If we'll fall
2 our own plunder
|
||||
11. |
& No. Maybe.
02:44
|
|||
|
What's the point of the clock
Every day is the same
We're just painting the walls
With our hopes & our pain
Weather changes the mood
& the news sells us shit
2 bring us closer 2 god
& make this hell the best fit
& no
Keep the moment away
There's better trends yet 2 buy
All the lies start 2 pay
Suffocating the sky
Where's the new place 2 be
Where will wisdom be found
We're screaming into the void
We're silhouettes of sound
& no. Maybe
Time flows on
Back around into ruin
& time goes by
Without us
Under this sky
& no. Maybe
& yes. We'll see.
