VERSE ONE
My solo cosmic evolution
Across the black sky sea
Was star charts, confusion and bottled telemetry
CHORUS
A magic trick floats through my lips
And asks for open hands
Into promised lands
VERSE TWO
You are here like I knew you’d be
But illusions are mixing with my reality
My odyssey down rabbit holes
Of mechanized interpol's
Left me in hands of fate for evening tea
CHORUS
BRIDGE
Give it space x8
CHORUS

VERSE ONE
Spinning off her axis
Waiting in line for the sun
Rita-go-round a nova
Can anyone
Clean the chalkboard
Give an answer
To her majesty unknown
And her cycle forming universe
That arranges all our bones
CHORUS
On the outside
My orbit’s on the outside
And that’s where I’m headed to
VERSE TWO
Martian Man came ‘round the bend
Wearing narcoleptic eyes
‘Scuse me ma’am I’m on the move
Do you have a place to hide?
Introduced myself to stars
A million mirrors wide
You’ve been out to the infinities
While I’ve been passing time
CHORUS
BRIDGE
Bengal parker lost at sea
Did you come here to save me?
I could take your place you know?
Finally find some rest at home
I’ve spun this rock from the same location
Then he gave me the keys to his space station
Outside

CHORUS
Jimi, genius, may I please
Pick a blossom from your tree
Find the groove and follow it to the end
I was told in a dream
VERSE ONE
What are bruises anyway?
Purple lessons or mistakes
I hear the hurt and I dim the beams
This machine is playing me
BRIDGE
Stuck I am
Stuck I’ve been
Let me move
Beyond my skin
I pray the space
Between head and hands
Will erase
On my command
VERSE TWO
Build me like a jigsaw puzzle
I guarantee no trouble
I already lined the frame
In your name, in your name
FINAL CHORUS
Jimi, genius, may I please
Pick a blossom from your tree
Find the groove and follow it to the end
I was told in a dream
Think I know what it means

Great Expectations
02:58
|
|||
VERSE ONE
Look at me like a silhouette
Round out the corners of your protagonist
Out from the shadows
Fade from black, I am back
And here I’ll stay
CHORUS
Doing my best to pick up speed
Watch with your ears and you will see
These great expectations won’t hold me
VERSE TWO
I’ve been bent, I’ve been broken
But I hope into a better shape
Dickens said it best
Suppose he prophesied my fate
If these years are my novel
Read the pages in between
I hear the story picks up after chapter eighteen
CHORUS
BRIDGE
Rumours bounce off the wall
Like we’re in a concert hall
Defy, exceed, I’m on my knees
The truth lies scattered in these A, B, C’s
VERSE THREE
Standing here before you
Riding this train down the tracks
When I decided to go rogue
Risk and reward filled my backpack
I’ll give you my love, I’ll give you pain
Here’s the fruition of my right brain
Don’t judge this book without knowing how it ends
CHORUS

House in the Air
05:09
|
|||
VERSE ONE
One step more
Reinforce the floor
If you slip through
It’s not on you
Until I clear the door
VERSE TWO
Watched your tread
The cargo of your head
If you should stay
Locked in these days
Who should lock the rest?
CHORUS
Oh I’d condensate my consciousness
Into the space the holds
This house in the air
We’ll find some peace of mind
To know in forward time we’re here
VERSE THREE
How’s the view
Overwhelming you?
Fortune found
Hung wits from the ground
Good thing I was around
CHORUS
BRIDGE
We don’t know much of anything here
But we’re all caught up in props of bad timing
Curtain close, intermission chose us
Now grow our limbs we shall
Into this shadow’s shell
CHORUS

Deetales
04:05
|
|||
VERSE ONE
My blood
Belongs to me now
My back
Was breaking
From stacking heaven’s bricks
CHORUS
Deetales
Are vying for
Your attention
My mind
Comes from yours
Think it’s time we sync them
VERSE TWO
Once I hit the ice box you pull me in
Fast to forgive when nostalgia begins
What am I from the nest
Who’da guess
I’d go this way
Oh I’d go this way
CHORUS
BRIDGE
Understand
I am not the man
You want me to be
CHORUS

Rita Lands
03:25
|
|||
VERSE ONE
Soakin’ the sun with the dodo birds
Always on holiday
Snuck in a high for a little while
Paper dreams burn up in space
CHORUS
Catch me fighting the current
I go way back with gravity
Time moves slow in the moment
Is this the nowhere I want to be
How could I be here and everywhere
Did the tide fold me to the sea
Landed before I could make amends
With the hands of curiosity
VERSE TWO
Riots for reasons I don’t want to admit
Throwing trash in the can like I’m over it
Who’s looking at me? Who’s ringing my bell?
Is she pleased to deceive and steal the smoke I inhale
CHORUS
BRIDGE
Hop on, we are going up
One size fits all for now
If I tell you I’m scared
Can I take my bow?
CHORUS

Kyle is a Robot!
03:37
|
|||
VERSE ONE
Animatronic movements
Programmed how to lose it
Led by the shit brains who set your course
No longer an innocent collection
Of coils and plugs
Just a hollowed out control center
With a shiny, mechanic front
CHORUS
(Reboot the boy) Set back his clock to when we were boys
‘Cause right now
Kyle is a robot
VERSE TWO
I’m not a fan
Of this techno funk you’re in
Your currents aren’t flowing
Toxins replaced your skin
Smoke billowing out
Too much pressure inside
Did you build your bones like this
Or will you blame Dr. Frankenstein?
CHORUS
BRIDGE
Two pumping hearts
Walking through the woods
No dreams of electric sheep
Only leaving this neighborhood
Eyes glued to Coppola and Kubrick
Watching time like a movie screen
I was the audience to past time
Now I know your script before you read

Round Back
04:26
|
|||
VERSE ONE
That’s a wrap on memory
For tonight and what you see
Did you feel or soak in dreams
In these waves of energy
CHORUS
Round back
We’re rounding back
We’re always spinning
And we’re going back
We’re rounding back
Back to beginning
In the orbit of our cul de sacs
With questions tacked
To the ceiling
And we’ll never know the meaning
Of these days
But that’s okay
So here’s some thanks
We’ll still be here
When you need to play
VERSE TWO
Magnetize ourselves to you
If we’re lucky and in tune
None of this belongs to us
We only find it when we don’t look
CHORUS
BRIDGE
We can sink forever inwards
And there are moments when we do
We shrink smaller in these constellations
If we run from clues
CHORUS
