The Floating
03:30

I keep twisting, turning and dreaming about,
Long ferry rides to nowhere,
With people I used to know.
But nowhere seems to be all about,
Twisting roads, losing friends and secret rooms,
And people I used to know.
That black dog just wont ever give up.
That black dog just wont ever give up.
I used to be happy, just believing,
I used to wake up full of energy,
Maybe its the floating that caused these dreams,
Now my black lungs never sing.
But now'days always well its all about,
Not what you are but what you have,
And that could be,
The root cause of the problem because,
I was suspect, from 14,
and I mean I mean I mean,
That black dog just wont ever give up,
That black dog just wont ever give up.
I used to be happy, just believing,
I used to wake up full of energy,
Maybe its the floating that caused these dreams,
Now my black lungs never sing.

What have we left for you oh Maya?
Your brother, sister too oh Maya.
They'll take down what you say,
In complex electronic ways.
What have we left for you oh Maya?
I'm sorry for the mess, we've made of the air.
I'm sorry for the mess of the sea.
I'm sorry for the state of the nation,
And I'm sorry for the state of me.
Yes I'm sorry for the state of me.
What have we left for you oh Maya?
Your brother, sister too oh Maya.
I know from what you'll see,
The mantle surely shifts from me,
And squarely onto you oh Maya.

I'm going out, that's okay 'cause I'll stay in.
She follows me down, she goes everywhere I've been.
Let me out, so that you can reel me in.
Its alright, that's okay. We'll be fine she said.
I'll be here, while you're away. We'll be fine she said.
Transceiver x4
We fell in today, but I'm afraid to leave my room.
I fall away. I'll try all the things you do.
Or maybe I'll wait. I felt stronger yesterday.
Its alright, that's okay. We'll be fine she said.
I'll be here, while you're away. We'll be fine she said.

Suck Thru
03:21
|

An old mans shadow casts its glare,
He pulls up in his Dads old chair,
And starts to rattle off his truth.
'They say the Devil is their friend,
And I'm inclined to believe them,
After what they put me through.
I made four while they took five,
And that went on for my whole life.
Don't let that happen to you.'
You took the best of me did I get the best of you? Of you?
There is no in between you're sucked in or sucked through. Suck thru. x2

I marked my fate down on the line,
Scratched it hard with black on white,
The promise of a better life that,
You will give to me.
Attracted by the gift of gold,
A new life that I'd been sold,
To take me far away from here.
You offered me sympathy but, what did you give to me?
The fine art of freedom but, you're never leaving.
The swift response it never came,
All six numbers not the same,
Two good reasons to make complaint,
Again and again and again and again.
You came into my house unasked,
Tempted me with this simple task,
To take me far away from here.
You offered me sympathy but, what did you give to me?
The fine art of freedom but, you're never leaving.x2
All six numbers too win it all,
That's the incentive, 106 prize draw.

My Own Feet
05:21

I'll pretend, to be hopeless to the end, like I should be.
A contender to the hope that never ends, I could be.
If I find, my own feet,
And once again, I stumble.
Its my own time, my own speed,
I'll dance again, yes I would.
I'll defend, you to the, folks that you offended, truly.
Too the end, I could be, all that you pretended, to be.
If I find, my own feet,
And once again, I stumble.
Its my own time, my own speed,
I'll dance again, yes I would.

I'll get the train back from where I have been,
Mallo Cup on my walkman my head hung in peace.
I'll be back home soon oh wont you please meet me?
Dodging pigeons through Central isn't easy.
That was the time, In fear we lie, that was the time.
Mallo Cup on my Walkman. x4

We Are We

You look wonderful when you're sleeping.
You are always there when I weaken.
We are we and no matter what they throw down.
We are fine.
Happiness can be re injected.
A new dawn is to be expected.
We can live in a bubble of our own light.
And we are fine.
And we are fine,
There's no rush you know,
Let your fear go.
And we are fine, and we are fine.
And once in a while,
Summer sun and smiles.
And we are fine, and we are fine.
Let your fear go.
I love you, you know.
And we are fine, and we are fine.
And once in a while,
Summer sun and smiles

Dont Eat Your Heart Out

Through all the darkness and sin,
And thick, and thin.
If I could advise you one thing,
One thing, one thing.
Don't eat your heart out.
Don't eat your heart out.
