Out of the Dark
05:26
|

I lie awake with myself
The colour drained from my face
Inside no way to begin
Out of the gloom and the din
I reach my hand out
Swipe at nothing
As I stumble forward
Confront the darkness
As it shudders memory to the present
And in the space in between
I lie awake with myself
Find a place for these dreams
Close the door
Left unseen
I bit off what I can’t chew
More than me
It’s more than you
Dying star
Burn to black
There’s no witness
Can’t turn back
What do you want
I can oblige
I surrender
I’m surrendered up
These things I did that can’t be undone
I can’t retract I can’t rewind
I press my head against the window
I cannot help but hide inside
How do I live with myself
I cannot live with myself
(Breakdown)
I want a way out
There’s no way out
Of the dark
I want a way out
There’s no way out
Of the dark
Find a place for these dreams
Close the door
Left unseen
I bit off what I can’t chew
More than me
It’s more than you
Dying star
Burn to black
There’s no witness
Can’t turn back
What do you want
I can oblige
I surrender
I’m surrendered up

Sorry Brother

Sorry Brother
Tell me what is it
That keeps us tied up in
Just some small piece of what we had
I know that you have been
So tired and wasted with
These sour grapes
This rotting fruit
Is it meant to be
This hard
Again?
Am I meant to feel
This way
Again?
Tangled
Up in
Each other
I’m still talking
I’m sorry
Brother
Come back to me
I waited for
You to call me home
Or so it seemed
But the wait is so long
Wading through the deep
Is it meant to be
This hard
Again?
Tangled
Up in
Each other
I’m still talking
I’m sorry
Brother
Tangled
Up in
Each other
I’m still talking
I’m sorry
Brother

Berlin

Berlin
You kick your shoes down the corridor
No more four on the floor
No more kick drums through the wall
This place is abandoned
Vacated for a crawl space in Kreuzberg
All of your housemates
Have moved to Berlin
All of your housemates
Have moved to Berlin
I’m off to sweat it out with some other guys
Three floors up the second window on the right
Excuse the mess I must have lost track of time
I’d introduce you but I’m way too high
All of your housemates
Have moved to Berlin
Some of your best mates
Have moved to Berlin
(Yeah)
Caught in two minds
Still mesmerised
There are no stories left to tell
Collective sigh
No longer mine
Now you’re the only game in town
Well it’s a mutiny by any other name
You went to Paris but it’s just no the same
I’m getting tired of your constant attacks
I got the Schengen and I’m not looking back
Caught in two minds
Still mesmerised
There are no stories left to tell
Collective sigh
No longer mine
Now you’re the only game in town
Cut adrift
Cut adrift
And I can’t
Go back
Go back
Go back
Cut adrift
Cut adrift
And I can’t
Go back
Go back
Go back
Cut adrift
Cut adrift
And I can’t
Go back
Go back
Go back

It's Always Personal
03:32
|

I’m ready
To burn this storm cloud
Don’t worry
About the others
It’s no time
For this conversation
I’m ready
To burn my bridges
Aaah
Ahh
Aaaah
Ahh
Unravelling
As days blur backward
Unfeeling
My steps fall heavy
Do you feel it?
The earth has shifted axes
And I just court catastrophe
Aaah
Ahh
Aaaah
Ahh
Don’t stand in front of me
And say you still believe
Don’t count on anyone
It’s always
Always
Always personal
Don’t stand in front of me
Don’t stand in front of me

Brain Fog
03:07

Tell me that I have no choice
The die is cast
Upon the waves in motion
Shunted to another path
Amid a chorus of
Screaming distractions
Peace
Won’t you let me breathe?
Don’t tell me what you really mean
Instead the thing you said
To make it better
Caught up in another dream
I always wake before you read my letter
Please
Why would you say love?
(Why say love why say love why say love)
Well I try to take the time
But the time never satisfied me
And nothing untoward should ever ever ever enter my brain
When all I want is pleasure pleasure pleasure never wanted the same
All I want is pleasure pleasure pleasure and I want it again
This ship
Dragged down
Doom swimming
Black water
Well of course
I am aware
Could you please repeat the question
This ship
Dragged down
Doom swimming
Black water
Well of course
I am aware
Could you please repeat the question

Loves Labour

Moguls in a foot race
Have you in a corner
Dancing on the ceiling
Speaking through the fourth wall
I am not the demon
You are fucking legion
there’s no other reason
It’s always eating season
Break this promise
The beast of burden
There are no others
The eyes stay open
Break this promise
The beast of burden
There are no others
The eyes stay open
And I have tried my best to reach you
I give my hand through many channels
But you just get lost in the static
I know you don’t
Don’t trust my network
Break this promise
The beast of burden
There are no others
The eyes stay open
Not enough
My pain is love
Recommit
Double down
Not enough
My pain is love
Recommit
Double down
Not enough
My pain is love
Recommit
Double down

Hours

Please don’t
Forget
These hours
Time
Crawls back
Springs forward
Please don’t
Pull back
My curtain
Trade
My light
For distance
Would I twist my words?
I tried
I won’t
There’s nowhere to run
I tried
I won’t
Please let
Me know
When you get this
Caught
Feeling
Past witless
