All Eyes (Start)

Hidden away, feeling all too seen
Judged as a fraud, an outgrown teen
Wrapped in the sheets but I really can’t hide
From the things beyond the night and the receding tide
Is all this just an opportunistic lie
Would it work better more mystic and fried
Eins Zwei Drei the dead men cry
Now I know how but I doubt I’ll know why
Resting on the laurels of the fit and wise
Working in some mescaline in the hopes to hypnotise
The land might predict the falling skies
But even then we’d lie down spinning through one and all eyes
More despair than the last time around
What was a sigh now rather weighed down
Eins Zwei Drei the dead men cry
Now I know how and I think I know why
What did they see? How long do they stare?
How sharp were their claws and the teeth they bare?
Taught to fear god not sow lies
Front row of the choir and it was all eyes
Are they coming? Do they know I’m here?
Do they smell the scent of delusions and fear?
Crashing through the door not the least bit surprised
How can it stop when I was told the time flies
Water dripping down my back and it’s all eyes

Let me know when you come
I’ll be soaked on the footpath
Take your time when you come through
I wonder who got the last laugh
Take some money, take a day
Water running down your back makes you feel alive
Spread the message, tow the line
Everything they say, is so contrived
Let me know when you come to
Tell the story like there’s things to prove
Nothing ever seemed so untrue
As the possessions that were your room
Search for meaning on the ground
Get it down flat, lost and found
See the signs on the wall
Better with a bat, fine with a ball
Not that that matters much any more
Rat-a-tat, tat, clatter with your hands on the floor
Not that that matters much any more
Rat-a-tat, tat, clatter with your hands on the floor
Not that that matters much any more
Pick the burnt things out from your bedroom door
Pack it in a van, living life on tour
Long nights day-to-day, room-to-room, door-to-door

Being With Youuuuuu
02:50
|

|
Being with you, being with you
Being with you, being with you
Sterilise, I don’t want any kids harshing this mellow
Stay alive, just until I get off now
Immobilise, or you’ll turn me into Othello
Catastrophize, about leaving the sanctuary
Being with you (sterilise, I don’t want any kids harshing this mellow)
Being with you (stay alive, just until I get off now)
Being with you (immobilise, or you’ll turn me into Othell)
Being with you (catastrophize, about leaving the sanctuary)

Chapel & Church
03:31
|

|
You’re working on me, you’re working tonight
I’ve got a few theories and I think that they’re right
I know what to do, just tell me how to handle it
The river’s dark, and the house is candlelit
Chapel and church
Think it’s getting worse
Chapel and church
Down where the floodlights search you know I’ll drop the merch
Let it run out to the sea, the sea yeah
Tour guides in your library
One side of the binary
Your books are wet, post-war pre-reckoning
Sitting by the heater and we felt every second in
Flickering lights as you deduct the price
All the time in the world, and no advice
Chapel and church
Think it’s getting worse
Chapel and church
Down where the floodlights search you know I’ll drop the merch
Let it run out to the sea, the sea yeah
Tour guides in your library
One side of the binary

James:
Everyone seems, so different now
They don’t want you to come, say it’s time to settle down
Seeing it all through, a journey to an end
The ballroom becomes a few, and a garden to tend
It’s hard to give a shit these days, maybe with a few kids
That summer feeling eludes without another laid across your ribs
Seems misguided, seems bound to fail
Nobody hears what you’re saying amongst such windy sails
Hopes up, hopes down
Close up, we’ve closed down
Hopes up, hopes down
Close up, we’ve closed down
Play the part, get a reason to leave
Get a nice new car for a second hand seat
You looked old, and you would talk like a seer
You look old, especially the days when you’re here
In a deep sleep, around blinking lights
To a meet and greet I don’t enjoy despite
People I love, real enough
Eagle eyes club, a real bluff
Hopes up, hopes down
Close up, we’ve closed down
Hopes up, hopes down
Close up, we’ve closed down
Camilla:
Everyone is different now they don’t, want you to settle down and say
It’s time to settle down, walk around in circles every day
Everyone is different now they don’t, want you to settle down and say
It’s time to settle down, walk around in circles every day
Everyone is different now they don’t, want you to settle down and say
It’s time to settle down, walk around in circles every day
Everyone is different now they don’t, want you to settle down and say
It’s time to settle down, walk around in circles every day

James:
Feel like a martyr, going until two in your chair
Back pain like father
Try to look lively, coffee I got more if you need
Always got anxiety
From the drone to the conference room
I hear them talk about, anything except what they were doing
From the drone to the conference room
I hear you talk about, anything except what you were doing
Right now
Smoking outside
Waving as they take out the bins
Smells like formaldehyde
Listen to him say
Did you hear about that room off the side
Inside it’s ixnay
From the drone to the conference room
I hear them talk about, anything except what they were doing
From the drone to the conference room
I hear you talk about, anything except what you were doing
Right now
From the drone to the conference room
I hear them talk about, anything except what they were doing
From the drone to the conference room
I hear you talk about, anything except what you were doing
Right now
Leo:
Don’t wanna be here any more than the cleaners
It’s a steady bore, the contrived demeanours
Eyes on the floor when the boss comes round
Might be more to laugh about, later down
James:
Yes I’m on site, yes I’m on site, yes I’m on site
Big merger
Yes I’m on site, yes I’m on site, yes I’m on site
Big merger
Yes I’m on site, yes I’m on site, yes I’m on site
Big merger
Yes I’m on site, yes I’m on site, yes I’m on site
Big merger

Reason

Something to believe in
I know you know the reason
Lookin at you from the ground to the top
Real silence when the band flop
You’re like second to none
You’re like second to one

James:
And I’m wondering bout you now
And I’m wondering bout you now
Until I’m wondering about who now
Until I’m wondering about who now
I wouldn’t rob you, with your savings on hand
I’ll pick you out in a line up, pale or tanned
I helped you pack your things, you were talking oh so grand
I snuck you into the airport, don’t you know stowaways have to stand
Turn me to a go getter, to a go getter
Turn me to a go getter, to a go getter
Turn me to a go getter, to a go getter
Turn me to a go getter, to a go getter
Turn me to a go getter, to a go getter
Turn me to a go getter, to a go getter
Turn me to a go getter, to a go getter
Turn me to a go getter, to a go getter
And I’m wondering bout you now
And I’m wondering bout you now
Until I’m wondering about who now
Until I’m wondering about who now
Rama:
A shadow passed your neck
As you turned your head
And all I know is all I’ve seen
And I want to see your hands again
Want to know your words again
But they come and go
And I am not who I was a month
Or so ago
And shadows flicker by
And I, am solitary
Shadows flicker by
And I, am solitary
