My Imagination
03:33
|

I will always need you, despite all these years
To make me whole and feed these bones
It’s natural
You’re a lost religion, just waiting to rise
Beyond the pale its written there
Set in stone, set in stone
There is only imagination, only imagination
To build a wall then watch it fall on everyone
Only imagination, only imagination
I am so demanding, let’s leave that behind
Like winter sun that warms your blood
Slowing down, slowing down
In my imagination, my imagination
I’ll bleed my soul and watch it heal
To bring you here
Now a confirmation, to silence your doubt
Shake the stones and ruins home
Help me chase and disappear
Out of view, out of view
To my imagination, to my imagination
I’ll build a wall then watch it fall on everyone
In my imagination, In my imagination
Will my imagination bring me there?

Skin In The Game
02:57

Naturally, the killer is me
Held down by weights, the ones you can’t see
Half of my life, spent in the waiting room
Don’t give up on hope, when there’s skin in the game
What’s passed through the years has now disappeared
The air filled with smoke, is clear and it shows
A room with a view, that only I can see
So I’ll pass you the rope, I’ve got skin in the game
I met a man once who said you gotta go for the kill
It’s as natural as your will.
He said you better run, from that setting sun
If this world is small, then show me the walls
Open the doors and breathe in some air
Our wanderlust minds, will focus in time
Don’t give up on hope, when there’s skin in the game
Don’t give up on hope, when there’s skin in the game
Don’t give up on hope, I got skin in the game
So I’ll pass you the rope, we got skin in the game

Change To Something New
03:29
|

Do you remember the day I fell in the lake you said
“I can not believe you made a mistake” I laughed I, was lost within my thoughts
must’ve been somewhere but never here
I’m just waiting on the day, I’m just waiting on the day,
are you waiting for me to, change to something new
Free from the noise, free from the empty spaces
Whatever it takes, I aint got no expectations, perhaps we’re in that place
where everything makes sense, everything makes sense
When you’re waiting on that wave, just waiting on that wave
are you waiting for it to bring you something new, bring you something new
Something new
Something new
Something new
Something new
Are we hitting the wall, breaking through to an exaltation
I think it’s time to sit still, being slow is the one solution
When it’s time to hit the brakes, close your eyes and stop
Waiting for that day, waiting for that day
Are you waiting for me to change to something new, change to something new

Curious Insight
03:19
|
|||
A cup of devotion falls from the hand, it spills as it crashes to the ground
Try to recover whatever is left but it kicks and it throws back like a mule
When all I ever want, all I ever want, all I ever want is you
Come to my rhythm swing out of time, pull till there’s nothing left to hide
Start from the inside the past is a blur, a crumbling statue of despair
When all I ever want, all I ever want, all I ever want is you
A curious insight, a battered belief.
Breath to get closer, breath to give release
When there’s nothing else to loose…..to loose
When all I ever want, all I ever want, all I ever needed is you
I piece it together to manage the fit, but the wondering mind falls in a hole.
Move to the middle, chasten the sun, bellow the flames within my heart
Cos all I ever want, all I ever want, all I ever want is you

I'm The One
02:27
|

Lead through the darkness, lead through the light
Capture the moments, before they arrive
But if you can’t see how to run
I will show you just this once
I’m the one, I’m the one, I’m the one
Hold on behind me, watch me reach out
I’ll swallow the worry, then spit it out
So if you can’t see I’m the one
I will show you one more time
I’m the one, I’m the one, I’m the one
Look far beyond what you can’t figure out
Trust in my instincts, the one without doubt
And if you’re blinded by the sun
I will help you block it out
Cos I’m the one, I’m the one, I’m the one
I’m the one, I’m the one, I’m the one
I’m the one, I’m the one, I’m the one

I was looking through the breeze, to see what I could see
My eyes began to sting, my heart slowed beat by beat
I fell into that light, it was blue, it was blue
I blame it all on the weather, all on the weather
All
As the sun fell from my gaze, and the night stole from that day
My thoughts returned to you, and coldness filtered through
I fell into that night pushed through, pushed through
Blame it all on the weather, all on the weather
All
I look away cos there’s a darkness in you
I want to help but I just don’t know how to
I see it now all of this sadness in you
I need to help but I just don’t know what to do
What to do
Blame it all on the weather, all on the weather
All, on him
There’s a light which we all give, and light that we receive
I hear you searching for relief, but I’m deaf, dumb, blind and weak
Are you captured by the lines in between, in between
Blame it all on the weather, all on the weather
All, on me

What It Was To Be Alive
03:36
|

Suzy came from the darkness, said she’d been living the life of a lie
She hardly remembered, the reasons to cry
She could not remember, she could not remember
She could not remember what it was she kept inside
Somewhere between all the shadows you held out a light in the palm of your hand
But I just saw anger and reasons to hide
I could not remember, I could not remember
I could not remember what it was she kept inside
What it was to feel alive, what it is to feel alive
What it was to feel alive
Maybe I’ll sing to the demons, maybe I’ll settle the score with a song
But songs are like seasons, they freeze then they thaw
I could not remember, I could not remember
I could not remember what it was I kept inside
What it was to feel alive, what it is to feel alive
What it was to feel alive

City Meets The Sky
04:07
|
|||
Come with me where the city meets the sky
Everyone’s coming down, everyone’s coming down
Talk to those, who lie like criminals
Loving in a loveless world, pretending to be analogue
I could breathe it in, but I don’t know where to begin
I could show you how, but I don’t know where to begin…ah ah
Do you see how noise has calmed them down
Chilling out to sonic sounds, melting in each other’s arms
Sonic youth bred a genocide
Nihilistic is a way of life, I tell you man it’s running out
I could breathe it in but I don’t know where to begin
I could show you how, but I don’t know where to begin
Show me how, and I’ll save all for you
Take this chance throw it away
We reside in synthetic state
Pushing our existence down, anything but being straight
I could breathe it in but I don’t know where to begin
I could show you how but I don’t know where to begin
I’m sullen now like a million tonnes of sludge
Here comes the night that never ends

Everything Is Always You
03:02
|
|||
Take off your hands and let go
There’s so much to decide if you give into time
Mostly in words of the soul
Shone up like mirror, mirror like chrome
But only if you want it to
But only if you want it to
Everything is always you
But only if you want it to
Shoot out the stars of a flag
Make up the difference, two eyed and blind
Move in mysterious ways
Confuse the disciplined, sand in their eyes
But only if you want it to
But only if you want it to
Everything is always you
But only if you want it to
Kick through the doors of a life
Follow a Jesus censor the signs
Blow out the need to fulfil
Ignore the precedent, design the wheel
But only if you want it to
But only if you want it to
Everything is always you
But only if you want it to
Only if you want it to
Only if you want it to
Everything is always you
But only if you want it to
