King Of Smiles 03:46
lyrics
buy track
Flying Low perched on distant rocks Splashing along the sidelines Little by little, we are waiting, drifting in time Clouds travelling in herds same as animals Will we migrate or will we find our place Beneath the two round opposites we attract Make contact (no need to act) White wash curling on the waters of the shore We wine and dine to the eastly winds contour Feasting on the edge of the ledge, the birds soar past Observing tourist, exploring mountains fast Will we migrate or will we make our own way We can migrate with the herd or we can find our place Will we migrate or will we change our game Will we migrate with the herd we can stay at our own pace Beneath the two round opposites we attract Make contact no need to act Unsheathe what's hidden, do your bidding with the king of smiles Stay with me awhile, walk on through the aisle You just don't know how grateful I am to know I don't have to prove myself, its alright Your eyes are so bright that everything inside Lights up like a paper kite in a flaring fire Flying higher blow my mind Beneath the two round opposites we attract Make contact no need to act Unsheathe what's hidden, do your bidding with the king of smiles Stay with me awhile, walk on through the aisle

Impact 03:47

As active as a jar of pickles subdued by glass you can't escape, you can't escape subdued by glass you can't escape, you can't escape Heating up to the boiling point, the glass shatters As active as a volcano that's about to explode Rising sun, no more left than an opaque cloud Carving Country, covering the crescents presence Rising sun, no more left than an opaque cloud Carving Country, covering the crescents presence Cars in a line on the shore to make sure they are prepared for the countdown prepared for destruction of their homes All our designs made by our flaws and established refined laws, crumble to the ground in our prime we all create spawns, who try to walk before they can crawl and fall harder than they would if they'd taken it slow oh oh oh Rising sun, no more left than an opaque cloud Carving Country, covering the crescents presence Rising sun, no more left than an opaque cloud Carving Country, covering the crescents presence

Pupils Wide Open 03:26
lyrics

Just flip the page over, I want to see the end Try tell it the best, tell the story to the kids Gaze into the white light over rooftops, scanning the block at sundown letting it flow, occupy your brain Up early in the morning Just so you see the sunrise It gives you time to view the whole horizon Some things never get boring They still give you the surprise Although, you bite and chew away at your fingernails You know the truth behind the reason why you're blind Been fed the wrong information, going under a transformation Pupils wide open all the fight, magnified light coming back to life Your being will thrive, no more desire Up early in the morning Just so you see the sunrise It gives you time to view the whole horizon Some things never get boring They still give you the surprise Although, you bite and chew away at your fingernails Solar power surging through my soul Strengthening, maximize rid this body of all sickness Solar power surging through my soul Strengthening, maximize rid this body of all sickness Up early in the morning Just so you see the sunrise It gives you time to view the whole horizon Some things never get boring They still give you the surprise Although, you bite and chew away at your fingernails

Unfolding 04:30
lyrics

Crossing back and forth down the same lane Not letting things get to the core, keep tame Surrounded by all this greed desperately hungry in need Taking what you've got For granted You don't have to sacrifice much, you'll survive You've got what you need Close your books Put everything down I won’t be mistook so just try and listen to me Staves of life are unfolding Forming a melody that will be saviour to our world To our world It may take some time To get through this We can’t afford to just assume It will be fine in the long run Don’t try to tell me its worthless Worse than this is if I don't give it a shot, the ticking clock My choice my goal my destination in relation To my ocu-fucking-pation Gotta enjoy what I do when I do it all the time When I do it all the time When I do it all the time When I do it all the time When I do it I'm giving as much for an impact Giving as much for an impact Giving as much for an impact Giving as much for an impact You don’t have to sacrifice much, you’ll survive You've got what you need Give what you can x8 Close your books Put everything down I won’t be mistook so just try and listen to me Staves of life are unfolding Forming a melody that will be saviour to our world To our world It may take some time To get through this We can’t afford to just assume It will be fine in the long run In the long run In the long run

Crooked 04:15
lyrics

Locked away In a rage until midnight when it comes into play the games of interrogation, replay Every Sunday evening, we lose sight of our souls Scream at the top of lungs Scream at the top of lungs Scream at the top of lungs I look into the sky and decide I won’t fight I won’t try to be someone else I look up into the sky and decide I won’t fight I won't fight it What have you been doing all week? Tell me or you won’t get dinner I don’t care how young you are And I don’t care if I’m a sinner Just sit in the corner and think about your actions Any day now I get away now Scream at the top of lungs Scream at the top of lungs Scream at the top of lungs I look into the sky and decide I won’t fight I won’t try to be someone else I look up into the sky and decide I won’t fight I won’t fight it I won't try to be someone else I won't try to be someone else I won't try to be someone else I won't try to be someone else I won't try to be someone else
