Echoes

Water is the theme
Battling this upstream
Full lobotomy,
Drowning out those memories.
Why do I need you?
Echoes and bleed-through.
You wanted order.
(You lied, you lied).
You wanted control.
(You lied, you lied).
Our greatest expectations
Broken in the name of
Your law and order.
(You lied, you lied).
Water is the dream,
In oceans of happenstance,
Pure geometry,
And the chase of happiness.
How to precede you?
Echoes and bleed-through

Anthropocene

It's as the crow flies,
Our footsteps told lies,
Like we were giant,
Massive and dominant.
Huge strides in the wrong way;
A bed of rock we made to sleep.
We lay our heads down.
We're made to dream.
Hey,
Too late.
We're on the inside looking out there.
Hey,
Too late,
We have made our own era.
Broke off in another way,
Reason is enough for me.
When did you breakdown?
When did you breakdown?

Ordinary Time

Stories Unfold in
Ordinary time.
Simple Fiction;
Ordinary lies.
We don’t Need to
Even up the lines.
Oddly Shaken
Air into the sky.
(Count it all up, it's just numbers over lines)
Take this part of me and break it.
(Count it all up, it's just numbers over time)
Take this part of me and break it.
We've forsaken
Ordinary time.
Each risk taken
Pushes at the line.
We don't know
Where we'll find the edge.
Vibrate the picture
In watercolour time.
(Count it all up, it's just numbers over lines)
Take this part of me and break it.
(Count it all up, it's just numbers over time)
Take this part of me and break it.
Now we got you thinking
Read between the lines.
Now we got you breathing,
In and out in time.
Thought you could predict it,
Never complicated; the time.
Now we got you thinking
Is this all a lie?
Count me out of your fortunes this time

Redline

Hey, I'm on the redline.
No, I think it feels fine.
Gotta run run gotta run, ready to go.
My time is mine so let it go.
And as I'm told:
Keep faith, hold tight.
It's all so old.
I'll create, my own line.
Give in, give in, give in, give in.
Hey, I'm on the green light.
Keep it in my eye-line.
Gotta run run, gotta run, ready to go.
My time is mine so let it go.
Give in, give in, give in, give in.
Give in? Give up.

To Kill a Ghost
03:27
|

|
Ebb and flow.
The waves they
pass me slow.
The way they
dance and glow,
I’ll never know, I’ll never know.
So let it breathe, let it breathe.
We need a
moment, please.
everything it could be,
I’ll never know, I’ll never know.
I never hold back,
I keeps me close.
I never wanted
To kill the ghost.
I’ll find the moment
With no remorse
To break it open,
And so it goes...
...and goes.
It shakes me
Back and forth.
The air is
Moving so,
I hear it, I hear it.
So let it breathe,
we need a
moment, please.
everything it could be,
I’ll never know, I’ll never know.
And I know I gotta kill that ghost
