Black/White 02:17
Black and white Green and red Forget about it all day ‘Till your’e in your bed Comes along In the summer heat You stumble forward Always falling on your feet What does it mean? To always be under Always underneath Falling from here Do you know your dream? Can you tell your’e sleeping? Is it hard to understand Why your spinning web isn’t even real? But isn’t it enough to know You’re always under? Always underneath the fall Falling from here

Backwards 03:38
Moving backwards in time Moving forwards in rhyme And all the angles you direct And all the motion standing still It’s all my fault I know But when things are going so slow It's hard to move and my legs Keep going backwards instead I know you and you know me And I know that you were meant to be free All along the way And all along the path The wind is blowing on the sea I know that you were meant to be free

Bleed/Leave 02:09
Does it really take a sad song to see the light? Am I dying of a sickness? Or am I just sitting on a bench Waiting on the side line of life? Does it really take the darkness to see the light? Does it really take a black hole to see the other side? I don't wanna know what's over there Don’t wanna run in circles or fight Don’t wanna bleed or leave my home Or get lost in the night I don’t wanna know what’s over there

Hyper 01:56
Mass anticipation Hyper speculation Tell you how to fit in Tell you when to shut up Make believe in something Television program You wanna recreate the Image in your mind I know I gotta find a reason to write this rhyme And I know I’m running backwards almost all of the time From minor complications that get stuck in my mind I gotta find a reason Gotta find a reason And I know the vision lies ahead and lies inside And that the answer to our problem hides in plain sight And I always find a way to somehow feel victimized But I know my time is coming I know my time is coming And I notice that the season is beginning to change I’ll fin myself in something close within my range Maybe ill get lost in a big cloud of thought Somewhere in the city Somewhere in the city Mass insemination Hyper sterilization Minor supervision All leads up to nothing Why’s everybody not crying Why’s everybody just sighing I wanna recreate the Music in my mind

There go the clouds There go the cars Racing off Somewhere to mars Or rotating around A flat earth The old songs The new births Five times over Connect the stars Five times over And maybe once under There goes the moon There goes the sun I'm sure they're having Lots of fun Living alone Or maybe at one Start up your engine I hope it runs Nothing happens with no reason Or it doesn't go very far So if you are traveling Make it to a star Better have good faith Better have your sense Better show up on time And make amends Nothings happens with no reason Under the sun If you're gonna give it something Make it a good one Make it a good one Nothings happens without reason Under the sun If your gonna go up there Make it a good one Got a pile of nothing At my door Can't seem to lift it Up off the floor It's a little too heavy Too much to explain Got a pile of nothing It's insane Nothing happens without reason Under the sun If your gonna go on up there Make it a good one

When you lose all time You follow your footsteps home When you lose all sense There’s no other place to go All the way to hell They’ll follow wherever I go Put it on the map Hang it on the tree Take a piece for later You know what I mean They’ll follow wherever I go Always take them home They’ll follow wherever I go Always take them Always take them home When you’re underneath You can see everything The story written clearly The pages underneath They’ll follow wherever I go Might as well go home They’ll follow wherever I go Always take them Always take them home Home is by the river Home is you and me Ill follow wherever you go Always take me You always take me home Home is by the river Home is you and me Ill follow wherever you go You always take me Always take me home Home is by the river Home is you and me Ill follow wherever you go You always take me You always take me home You always take me
7.
I'm lost in the crowd The beauty in disguise A well that’s deep And rocks me to sleep The precious inside I wanna fly Beyond what’s real And behind the sky In the end you’ll see Won’t tell me I’m wrong When I say Life keeps goin’ The sun on the street The light underneath The trees of the pine In the grove with the shadows Life keeps goin’ And all the angels are here for you At a certain point you’ll see It's true Life keeps goin’
