Bittersweet Spell
04:20

Is there anyone left
Who wishes it was better than before
Is there anyone left
Who looks at the moon anymore
Two distant lovers
Resigned to their fate
Seek comfort in the lie
That it’s already too late
No matter how many times
I speak your name
Time moves on
All the same
Can’t make sense of it
Maybe that’s just as well
Who wants to uncast this last
Bittersweet spell
Guess sometimes
We simply settle for less
One time I should’ve told you
That maybe I knew best
You gave up on romance
Didn’t get it at the time
A lifetime later have I
Finally fallen into line
No matter how many times
I speak your name
Time moves on
All the same
I can’t make sense of it
Maybe that’s just as well
Who wants to uncast this last
Bittersweet spell
Least the stars get a little closer
When you speed into the night
Takes nothing to fall
Takes everything to fight
Drove dead into a wall
One too many times
Lucky to be alive and I’m
Never falling into line
Your bittersweet spell
(Never falling into line)
Your bittersweet spell
(Never falling into line)
Your bittersweet spell
(Never falling into line)
Your bittersweet spell
(Never falling into line)

Still Alive
02:53

Been beaten, battered and bruised
Still I’m standing right here in these shoes
For all the times that I Ieft myself for dead
A big “fuck you” to all the demons in my head
I took the hit, I took the dive
But last I checked, still alive
I lost my shit, I lost the drive
But last I checked, still alive
Still alive
Today: someone who’s really grown
Tomorrow: the drunkest person you’ve known
For all the times that I reached boss level
Only to fall down, tricked by the devil
Back to the start, but still I strive
Cos last I checked, still alive
Still I fail, and still I try
Cos last I checked, still alive
Still alive

Low Ebb
01:47
|
|||
|
I was salty as hell, lost at sea
Pondering my redundancy
Low ebb. Low ebb. Low ebb.
Searching for skills to monetise
Rock the boat, it will capsize
Low ebb. Low ebb. Low ebb. Low ebb.
Waiting for a call of land ahoy
Some sign of life, to bring me some joy
Low ebb. Low ebb. Low ebb.
Just put me to sleep on the sea bed
Fuck you cunts, you’re all fucked in the head
Low ebb. Low ebb. Low ebb. Low ebb.
LOW EBB.

Another Life
03:35
|
|||
|
Final exhalation
Life of loose threads
Free of expectation
Once we are dead
Waiting to be tied
In another life, another life
Ready to die
Eternal life, eternal life
Darkest destination
Whisper in your heart
Do you dare listen
Before you depart
Face all the lies
In another life, another life
Ready to die
Eternal life, eternal life
Fire or salvation
When you reach the end
Will you rise up
Or will you descend
Maybe we’ll fly
In another life, another life
Ready to die
Eternal life, eternal life
Maybe we’ll fly
In another life, another life
Ready to die
Eternal life, eternal life
Another life
Another life
Another life

Keep the Lid On
02:26

|
Keep the lid on tight
Time to say goodnight
Tonight
Tonight
Cover these split seams
I am whole in dreams
(Keep the lid on tight)
Tonight
(Keep the lid on tight)
Tonight
Moon light up this mess
Lay me down to rest
(Keep the lid on tight)
Tonight
(Keep the lid on tight)
Tonight
Keep the lid on tight
Keep the lid on tight
Keep the lid on tight
(Keep the lid on tight)
Goodnight

Today's Waves
03:30

|
Today’s waves / Tomorrow’s dust
Today’s waves / Tomorrow’s dust
All that glitters
Turns to rust
We split the atom
What a bust
Flew to the moon
Oh, look at us
Today’s waves / Tomorrow’s dust
Today’s waves / Tomorrow’s dust
Live life
A last minute rush
Go quietly
Don’t make a fuss
Felt it all a little
Too much
Today’s waves / Tomorrow’s dust
Today’s waves / Tomorrow’s dust
Build upon
What we crushed
Hope this pound of flesh
Is enough
On paper
In God we trust
In God we trust
In God we trust
In God we trust

Full Cycle
02:09
|
|||
|
Quiet and lonely
Now that you’re gone
My sole company
The dishwasher’s hum
And for a full cycle
I’m not the only one
Yeah for a full cycle
I’m not the only one
Into my life
The yin and the yang
Who needs a wife
When I got a gang
Cos for a full cycle
We are gonna hang
Yeah for a full cycle
We are gonna hang
Fireworks in a box
Sparks they will fly
Tearing down blocks
Shout prayers at the sky
Cos for a full cycle
There’s a you and I
Yeah for a full cycle
There’s a you and I
Who needs to stay down
When we can keep it high
Cos for a full cycle
There’s a you and I
Who needs to stay down
When we can keep it high
Cos for a full cycle
There’s a you and I

At my friend’s wake
In a dream
He appeared and said to me
“Think with your heart, and not your head”
A simple message from the dead
I want to remember
So I’m writing this reminder down
Don’t want to let him down
Don’t want to let him down
Don’t want to let him down
By keeping up walls
That I’ve built all around
Living my life behind a screen
Waiting for the words to set me free
“Think with your heart, not your head”
A final lifeline from the dead
I want to remember
So I’m writing this reminder down
Don’t want to let him down
Don’t want to let him down
Don’t want to let him down
By keeping up walls
That I’ve built all around

Axe to the Hive
02:32
|
|||
|
Your tones got me heavenly
I submit as you open me
Like an axe to the hive
Seeking honey inside
I collapse
At your feet
You see all
That’s beneath
Your light is igniting me
Burns the weight of gravity
Like an axe to the hive
Seeking honey inside
I collapse
At your feet
You see all
That’s beneath
You’re an axe to the hive
You’re an axe to the hive
Seeking honey inside

The end
The end is coming
No
No more running
Those close
I have loved them
But now
Fire comes for them
Comes for us all
Comes for us all
Comes for us all
The end
The end is coming
No
No more running
Those close
I have loved them
But now
Fire comes for them
Comes for us all
Comes for us all
Comes for us all
Comes for us all

Eye of the Storm
05:00
|

|
I saw
The eye of the storm
Watching since
Before I was born
Here at the end
Is where I began
Eye following
No matter where I ran
I saw
The eye of the storm
Watching since
Before I was born
Churning sea
Takes pieces of you
When I’m gone
Finally see what’s true
Always watching me
Always watching me
Always watching me
I saw
The eye of the storm
Watching since
Before I was born
What is an end
Taken by infinity
Beyond what’s lost
Is where I want to be
Always watching me
Always watching me
Always watching me
Always watching me
