Talisman
04:09
|
|
||
Swim right out into the sundown
Today was alright
Put a spring in your step
The doom and the gloom
Can be too much for us to consume
“Smile once in a while!”
That used to piss me off
Because I was already pissed off
In that teenage daze that amplifies your pain
But I don’t carry that weight anymore
I won’t let this get me down
I won’t go to those old haunts now
I won’t let this twist me around
Spirits look out!
I’ve found my talisman
Far away from here, out in the clear
I loved you all this time
Even at the end, hold on to loose threads
I’ll love you until we die
A love so clear, so sincere
I’ve loved you all the time
Here right now or in some other life
I’ve loved you through divides
I won’t let this get me down
I won’t go to those old haunts now
I won’t let this twist me around
Spirits look out!
I’ve found my talisman
I hang it round my neck
We don’t care much for self tough love
We don’t shine that light on it anymore
We don’t care much for self taught harm
Don’t wanna waste our time on it anymore

Lemondaze Slow Burn
05:04
|
|
||
in the sun, in the sun, in the sun
in the sunshine
lemondaze blurs my mind
slow burn, slow burn, slow burn
slow burning fire
turn out the lights
love is just a drug
we’re slaves to it until our hearts stop
dedicated too much
seeking the approval of everyone
in the sun, in the sun, in the sun
in the sunshine
lemondaze slows my mind
slow burn, slow burn, slow burn
slow burning pyre
slaves to desire
love is just a drug
we’re slaves to it until our hearts stop
dedicated too much
seeking the approval of everyone
in the sun, in the sun, in the sun
in the sunshine
lemondaze slows my mind
slow burn, slow burn, slow burn
suits me fine
i need to take my sweet time

Out Of Phase
04:12
|
|
||
i am out of phase
walk around in another daze
i’m a little out of phase
don’t mean to project my pain
i’m just not myself today
i am out of phase
i can’t syncopate
this is a mind in disarray
i’m a little out of phase
pull me out of my malaise
there’s n0 quick fix for mental pain
understanding is never easy
i would change if i could
understanding is never easy
i would change if i could
climbing up the walls again
trying to find a way out of my skin
when the world inside is too intense
a furnace of my discontent
i am out of phase
i can’t syncopate
this is a mind in disarray
i’m a little out of phase
pull me out of my malaise
there’s no quick fix for mental pain
understanding is never easy
i would change if i could
understanding is never easy
i would change if i could
it’s hard to breathe when your energy is spent
vampires drain your blood again
i am out of phase
i can’t syncopate
i am out of phase
stuck in a groundhog daze
i’m out of phase
reliving my mistakes
i’m out of phase
my reality alternates

Street Hawkers
03:32
|
|
||
live it like you want it
no don’t hesitate
don’t take it for granted
it won’t always go your way
keep on pushing forward
don’t click the bait
carve out your borders
govern your own state
take a slice in the disorder
they won’t give you a taste
we are all street hawkers
hustling for our place
we are all street hawkers
hustling at the gates
they’ll always pull you under
when they catch you making waves
they don’t want you to be real
they don’t wanna know how you feel
keep your opinions inside
shut up and get in line
no room here for open hearts
how dare you know your mind
take a piece in the disorder
they won’t just give it away
we are all street hawkers
hustling at the gates
they don’t want you to be real
they don’t wanna know how you feel
they don’t want you feel
if it’s not up on the surface
it can’t be real

Get Lazy
04:46
|
|
||
come on baby let’s get lazy
there’s no better place to be
hiding under the duvet, watching bad 90’s movies
there’s no place i’d rather be
come on honey let’s get sunny
you’re the brightest star to me
this town is forever grey
and it always rains
but in your bedroom i felt free
free from the boredom
after the post mortem
you put the life back in me
the future can wait
i promise we won’t be late
i want to explore here right now
i don’t want to hesitate
come on baby let’s get lazy
there’s no better place to be
tell our secrets and stories
our failures and glories
lay it all out for me
come on honey forget about monday
smoke cigarettes on your balcony
play guitar with my shirt off
while you sleep naked
a perfect tranquillity
heavenly gauzy
watched you sleep in morning
and i knew you were right for me
the future can wait
i promise we won’t be late
i want to explore here right now
i don’t want to hesitate

Send A Wish On The Shore
05:58
|
|
||
send my wishes to the shoreline
i am soothed by its beauty
let the memories float away
i let my life flash before me
this is a feeling i can’t ignore
send a wish on the shore
this is a moment i want to explore
tu es l’amour
this is a feeling i can’t ignore
send a wish on the shore
won’t take it for granted anymore
tu es l’amour
ruminations come in waves
under the tall pines that sway
i’m reminded in so many ways
so i still see your face
in the grandeur and the mundane
in those clouds making shapes
this is a feeling i can’t ignore
send a wish on the shore
this is a moment i want to explore
tu es l’amour
this is a feeling i can’t ignore
send a wish on the shore
won’t take it for granted anymore
tu es l’amour
send my wishes to the shoreline
you are a lantern in the sky
soulful movement in the night
voyager of calm in my life
this is a feeling i can’t ignore
send a wish on the shore
this is a moment i want to explore
tu es l’amour

Golden Promise
04:00
|
|
||
make a golden promise to yourself today
through your soul and heart you can heal the pain
not all of us will be dust in the end
there’s not always enough time to make amends
chanting at the sun
because you wanna know why you came
chanting at the sun
because you wanna know what you came here for
make a golden promise to yourself today
it’s never too late to start over again
not all of us will be dust in the end
need to believe in the after or nothing can make sense
chanting at the sun
because you wanna know why you came
chanting at the sun
because you wanna know what you came here for
from the east to the west it’s all the same
the stars, the sun and moon in a frame
we are just pieces that endlessly rotate
chanting at the sun
because you wanna know why you came
chanting at the sun
because you wanna know what you came here for

Only Yesterday
04:14
|
|
||
someday you’ll pass this on
i couldn’t leave it all behind me
so i carried it all the way home
i couldn’t leave it all behind us
so i carried it on
i carried the storm
i couldn’t leave it all behind us
i dig deeper and search the holes
i couldn’t leave it all in the past
maybe i’m missing a vital chromosome
someday you’ll pass this on
someday you’ll pass this off
i couldn’t leave it all behind me
it’s only yesterday
didn’t matter much anyway
i couldn’t leave it all behind us
it’s only yesterday
didn’t matter much anyway
i couldn’t see the end or the beginning
my life was like a palindrome
i couldn’t stop my head from spinning
i was stuck in the honeycomb
someday you’ll pass this on

Ready To Survive
04:06
|
|
||
i wanted you to read me,
read me between my lines
i don’t want you to leave me
i don’t wanna be left behind
i wanted to prove something
prove something to myself
that i could do this no matter
the hand that i’ve been dealt
i don’t want you to lie
i don’t want you to lie
i’m ready to survive
i’m ready to survive
i don’t want this to die
i don’t want this to die
i’m ready to survive
i’m ready to survive
i knew my limits
i was too deep in it, alright
i was counting my visits
the hours and minutes passed by
the lessons are hard
take this one to the vine and the heart
takes a better man
than the one you were then at the start
i don’t want you to lie
i don’t want you to lie
i’m ready to survive
i’m ready to survive
i don’t want this to die
i don’t want this to die
i’m ready to take advice
i’m ready to survive
all the questions still unanswered
grow untested like a cancer
wash the sin in new beginnings
don’t phone it in, it’s all or nothing

It Meant Nothing At All
04:36
|
|
||
it hasn’t meant much in a long time
it’s like it meant nothing at all
nothing at all
i don’t mean much to you around your eyes
i don’t mean much anymore, much anymore
it hasn’t felt real in such a long time
we pretend and ignore, pretend to explore
people are the worst thing sometimes
we hurt each other and move on
discard and move on
we’re all sucked in
and the ground is getting thin
in a vortex swirling
we’re too far in
embedded in our psyches
in a vortex swirling
i haven’t felt real in a long time
machines put up walls, machines put up walls
i haven’t felt connected in a long time
i can’t bridge the gap anymore, the gap anymore
i gotta get back in touch with myself try to recapture who i was, who i once was
it hasn’t felt good in a long time
oh i don’t feel it anymore, don’t feel it anymore
we’re all sucked in
and the ground is getting thin
in a vortex swirling
we’re too far in
embedded in our psyches
in a vortex swirling
the colour of your love was sunshine
it doesn’t warm me anymore, warm me anymore
now you only send chills down my spine
but that isn’t the kind that you want,
the kind that you want
i guess the stars were never quite aligned
it meant nothing at all, nothing at all
it hasn’t felt real in such a long time
pretend and ignore, pretend to explore
we’re all sucked in
and the ground is getting thin
in a vortex swirling
we’re too far in
embedded in our psyches
in a vortex swirling

Nocturnal Teens
04:14
|
|
||
the highways are always calling you
calling us, we’re locked in our rooms
and these lights must lead to something
or your eyes must lead to somewhere
we were nocturnal teens
running round in ripped up jeans
chapstick and skinned up knees
those nights meant everything
those nights...
scheming our wild escapes
into the dark, into the fray
now we’re kind of stuck here
hoping the darkness won’t disappear
we were nocturnal teens
aliens on the back streets
lost in a suburban dream
trying to stay seventeen
those lights...
running from our mothers
running from our fathers
running from the traumas
running from the drama
we were nocturnal teens
running round in ripped up jeans
lost in a suburban dream
those nights meant everything

Sun Dappled Clouds
05:28
|
|
||
washing over me like you did
in a technicolour dream
staring into the void isn’t that the point?
it’s not all rainbows and sunbeams
checking in with the black what does it reflect back?
nothing quite as it seems
smoke and mirrors you know they can cloud the facts
looking through broken glass
i need a place where dreams can lie
on pillows in your eyes
where a stirring fire still billows
wake under the sun dappled clouds
washed away like a cheap thrill
seems like a recurring theme
staring into your soul really takes a toll
better put on your sunscreen
for one more trip around the sun
will you come undone?
pulled apart at the seams
days slip through your hands
just like waves on the sand
chasing away those dreams
i need a place where dreams can lie
on pillows in your eyes
where a stirring fire still billows
wake under the sun dappled clouds
i don’t know what i want from this
i don’t know what i need
i don’t know what i want from this
i still don’t know what i need
i don’t know what i want from this
i don’t know what i need
i don’t know what i want from this
can you teach me to feel free?
