AS LONG AS WE MAY (WE LOVE)
The cry of time
the prayers left undone
the hounded stag escaped the pack
he finds his drugs peacefully
on the star unfolding skies
The mist of fears glory vs pain
the song floats forth through dust in space
We love as long as we may
The sharpened hornes now fickle like a flame
the hounded stag escaped the pack
We love as long as we may
Not as long as you fake it over

HONESTY
The house is cold, will it ever be warm,
I feel the ice between my toes
Been gathering strength to let myself out of bed
i guess sometimes karma's not a friend
it'll never satiate
Honesty is not a trick that you learn
make up your mind stop building lies
for a long time i gave chance a chance
I fed the craps,
yet couldn't learn to throw without craving for rewards
Honesty is not a trick that you learn
make up your mind stop building lies
I've been struggling to leave your dream but i just can't
I'm forced back in
Honesty is not a trick that you learn
make up your mind stop building lies

LITTLE JOHN
Theres another kind of fabric
new foundations
I know a change is gonna come
let go
don't let them break your serve
now inhale
fill your lungs shake your voices
ill think you'll need to drink some more red wine
And you can tell it's coming
Coming at you
sprawling across
those stupid words
you once learned to hoard
put them down
they ain’t worth shit
they ain’t worth shit
c'mon c’mon just
put them down
Join the forces
we are still running, Hey!
time means nothing
we want what everybody wants
fire, and u can tell its coming
coming at you
sprawling across
those stupid words
you once learned to hoard put them down
it ain’t worth shit c'mon c'mon
just put them down
oh little john, little john, little john
u got to loose it while u can
flags are not okay
purpose your space
describe, design
cause you can tell it’s coming

GOLDFISH
-Come closer, speak up,
you're bubbling words
she said to me.
Please honey stop!
and leave me alone
you are asking too much about my plans,
just let go
Why can't you see
we're floating around
in your brown bowl
You wanted a Goldfish
Here I am without water
Im rising above
i’ll end up floating to decompose
my eyes will open looking at you
please let me out
i wanna be a man, but i don't know how
our love is dry
you sucked it up and then flooded my soul
but still i find a wave of strength
to water it back
Why can't you see we're floating around
in your brown bowl
You wanted a Goldfish
here I am without water

CONTENDER
I spent some time trying to glow
online was the only place
where my shit looked clean oh oh oh
Battles took place in my couch
beyond repair
its hard not to fall
when you just
logged out
Time is a rubber band
elastic expansive
don't stretch it too hard
cause it might pull you back right to the start
I swore to stop playing video games
it s time to move on true
its time to move on
ill be my own contender
no time to run
no time to part!

LONELINESS
Please don’t make me try
to picture my life with you dead
I’ve already had
and I can’t say I’m sorry for you
Look at you now crawling on your knees
loneliness is someone you don’t need
It’s hard to breathe now darling with your jaw in my neck
It would be easier darling
if you just let go
so please just let it go, let it go
So look at you now!
Crawling on your knees
loneliness is someone you don’t need
you don’t need you don’t need you don’t need

WAITING
She'd like to cry
hasn't drop no tears
She'd like to sleep again
but she can't get any rest
She's been waiting for her prince to know
She's been waiting for her prince to show
She rolled the dice to empty her mind
She went all in to feel alive

PRIVATE TORTURE
Let me down, play dead
that's how you'll manage to survive
that's how you'll manage hang out, so far
Live in fear in that airless spot
no love to give, no love to take,
no time to be a friend
I think I just tripped over
my own commandments
found my private torture
lets pretend nothing happened
why don't we write another story
too bad you'll never grab a pen, ever
i think i just tripped over
my own commandments
found my private torture
i need to burn it clean
i don't give a fuck

GRIP THE GROUND
Dancing queen,
puts my head in the night grass
while my dreams reach out
now we fly not afraid to die
everything is sheen
rainbow glee, comet leaves, fractal smiles
now we know ye,
what it really means to breath
we learned from nuts
they pathed all our doubts
they stepped into the clouds
just to grip, grip the ground
gregarious tongue now speak
shed your skin, don't be discrete
visions from the past shine bright now

OPEN UP
When you feel in disgrace
And that everything is faith
It’s never too late to wake up at night and write songs
And love someone or something again
my love
It’s never too late
It’s never too late
to dream endless rhymes where nothing gets fucked up
It’s never too late
to say you need help in your life
And start over where you messed up at
it’s never to late
it’s never too late to dream endless rhymes
it’s never too late to love again
