1.	Soon 04:11	lyrics	buy track
Soon soon When what I seek no longer hides You once rejected my advances Soon soon You will realise The treasure lays in the questions Not the answers So try Try not my friend To compare a life Side by side or measure Distraction distorted the impulse to rule The peace which is thwarted Resides within us I know that I knew it You know I knew it too With patience and purpose We no longer are denied Soon
2.	Still Talking Scribble 04:06	lyrics	buy track
Riotous discussions hide A life dreamt of not realised Elemental bruise subsides Black to powder blue Riotous discussions break The protocol we've grown to hate What doesn't come too soon It comes too late is that true? All these years… Riotous discussions caught An army of indifferent thoughts What is not for sale can it be bought I'm asking you Riotous discussions fear There's nothing left to keep us here The nomadic tendency is clear A tainted residue After all these years... We're still talking scribble
3.	Beneath The Wings Of A Dragon 03:15	lyrics	buy track
Too many opportunities To make mistakes you said Immunity not granted Should the bloated grievance meta morph as you Knowledge speaks wisdom listens Avoidance though I fear is a futile exercise Beneath the wings of a dragon Beneath the wings of a dragon its true Your narrow minded vision Don't deserve this wide expansive space Still attached to the outcome When only the journey should count Knowledge speaks wisdom listens The infant mind so open and unashamed Beneath the wings of a dragon Beneath the wings of a dragon it's true
4.	From Cathedral Cities To Dark Northern Towns 04:18	lyrics	buy track
Curiosity's tired affection The better thing often harder to do The bigger and bolder decision in time Like an outfit you will grow into As the flailing arms of illusion Of the turbulent angst ridden child Will slowly reveal the intention To expose all that we hide Worthy of deep admiration Long enough to develop a grudge A detour without expectation will harbour The sweetest benevolent shove Which like a friendly dictator Whose gunmetal grey dorsal fin Exposes the savage intention Your plausibility is wearing so thin For a life worth living is tested A life worth living is found Not in the easy existence But in the lonely paths and challenges A man must walk down Will you still be defiantly open Scattered the troops wave you down Collective the gasp from cathedral Cities to dark northern towns The continual short sharp reminders What's the best you can do with your day But furrow and plummet The depths of a question Where answers elusively stray Awareness will not ask for players Awareness she does not play games The shadows of an army of counterfeit characters Are dwarfing your delicate frame
5.	The Enemy Of My Enemy Is My Friend 06:52	lyrics	buy track
The single minded stubborn thought It has come undone What you believed Was right through those years You now know that it was wrong Shoot me down Shoot me down You cannot fix you cannot mend Shoot me down Shoot me down For the enemy of my enemy he is my friend I glimpsed a life Beneath your eyelashes heavy watch them sprawl A jawbone tight I feel the primal breeze you my open parachute That breaks me from the fall These beautiful diversions found Are only feelings never felt But don't you know That the easiest person in the world To fool it is yourself
6.	Solo 02:29	lyrics	buy track
Another clouded judgement In a sky of open wounds A tapestry of bruises that falls Acceptance or rejection Of something once said A quiet wisdom has been hard won Still doing the right things For all the wrong reasons With a singular intensity Through half shut eyes you choose to see I’ve been the wrong side of reasonable Oh too long As you fly solo
7.	Collisions 04:59	lyrics	buy track
The agitation of the unquiet and continually judging mind Depleted like an army in someone else's war Let's agree to disagree And put some skinny flesh upon these orphan bones Should rogue emotions navigate and make their home inside of me You who bore the hallmarks of a contented simplicity Another languid indecision tries but I cannot translate (what it means) You know I wont be guided only pushed The weight of envy ''gainst these static doors A permanent solution to a temporary problem What is happening Apprehension won't hide But it's happening Were we designed for collisions? Cast new light on a well worn story Gonna find new ways to see old friends The greatest agitator won't give it up Or at least he'll pretend Still demanding attention After all these years feels so undeserved But it's happening It's happening I know it's happening Were we designed for collisions?
8.	A Little Help From You Goes Such A Long Way 05:41	lyrics	buy track
The drowsy secret is waking up Watch it meet the banging excesses of sound You no longer have to keep it Don't keep it Wild horse unshackled free The place we're trying to get to Is the one we used to be Is the one we used to be The most intimate moment On the grandest of scales Patience the finest of your traits Let it not finally fail Albeit the public torment Of a private man Becoming part of what you tried So hard to undermine It's not over Either alter or dissolve in time Come rest your weary head upon my shoulder In a bubble of modesty and humble restraint What it is is what it isn't All I am is what I aint The most epic of passages My heart to yours There's a light across the water There's a light inside this room There's a light that hovers over There's a light in side of you A little help from you goes such a long way
9.	The Continual Fling 05:04	lyrics	buy track
Set to eclipse all of your rivals I've seen you close up from afar You are so vague in conversation So much more than they say that you are The bellowing sound of the anvil You.... my continual fling I am so glad that i made it back to your house Dream of your skin on my skin For the spirited hunter I know shall one day One day catch the mythical beast A do or die triumphalism Has manifested....complete
10.	Cheap Exchange Of Slim Affections 05:10	lyrics	buy track
The most lingering of looks Is lingering much longer In the time you know it took The most permanent of sighs Took refuge in the cheap Exchange of slim affections With wide open arms you say Embrace us The pavement you know is strewn With tangible regret Bottles with heads off predictably vile Grateful for nothing but the purest of intentions A candidness seen in your shadowy smile But the sallow skinned pale imitation still stokes At the ashes and embers of yesterdays hopes The glue of a sleepy society bound If anything goes why is nothing allowed here? I gaze at the lines of a distant horizon I gaze at the look on your tremulous face Practising flattery that got us inside of here I pray for eviction at speed without haste Vibration come Hypnotic bang A community choir in the palms of my hand Rattles the top heavy autumnal leaves Carried down by the most disingenuous of breezes These adrenalised legs will carry me far The wound that's still open One day will scar Something got lost in translation I fear If everyone's someone then why am I nobody here?
11.	Completely By Accident, Not By Design 04:51	lyrics	buy track
Friends are for a reason A season or lifetime The spray from distant oceans Upon these fictional coastlines We float on like the wind through the trees More willing than able? For life is a people altering substance it seems Made it from bad to better And I ended up some place that is inbetween Where does a dream go she asked me After you’ve dreamt it do you believe I have seen Float on like the wind through the trees You're less willing than able? For life is a people altering substance it seems Love can neither be measured nor weighed only felt The art of separation manifested within the heart of oneself Were you taught to magnify the weakest intentions in me Part of a new breed You the generation extreme Part of a new breed You my generation extreme A private derision ever so thinly disguised You know that it all happened Completely by accident and not by design Float on like the wind through the trees You're more willing than able? Life is a people altering substance it seems
12.	Marriage Of Convention 04:17	lyrics	buy track
The comparisons have inevitably started A cacophony of noise that breathes inside my head The mother tongue is broken what's your language You devastate so quietly may words remain unsaid Elusive these muted conversations A truly awkward silence at high speed But what resonates here most of all my darling Are the monochrome erratic stares you bounce off me The passing of the years will not Enlighten this marriage of convention Clavicle to shoulder navel to neck The erotic constellation remains unread The passing of the years will not Enlighten this marriage of convention
13.	Substitute Silence For Noise 05:04	lyrics	buy track
Just go ahead and substitute silence For noise Another minor distraction from a major decision I hear your voice You're not being chased by something You spent your whole life running from Secrets are something we tell everybody To tell no one Brittle words that break and smash Now watch them bend and bounce right back Wash away a tarnished memory Like a junk shop without a single treasure
14.	Deepest Impression, Faintest Of Sketches 03:33	lyrics	buy track
Still assessing the damage How far should we run Now the walls of persuasion Come crashing down inside of you Just a new found fascination with The oldest of all My regrets you know it's true Watch us stray one more day As the urgent takes precedence Over the important I hear you say For I'll be somewhere else Looking for something new You're still making the deepest impression with The faintest of sketches All your life that has been you Let's not stray one more day May the urgent not take precedence Over the important decisions That we have to make For I'll be somewhere else Looking for something new
15.	Outro - Awakens 01:57	lyrics	buy track
Your vision will become clear Only when you look Only when you look Into your heart Into your heart Who looks outside Who looks outside Dreams... Who looks inside Awakens
