The Pressure
03:27
|

|
Too sick and tired
I’ve been working away
Missing my home that’s under siege
Been charging
Wired till we see the next day
Kissing someone I’ll never see again
Won’t stop at green lights
Flashing to make me blind
On top I’ll stay
My passion cannot subside
Despite the pressure coming on
Right now I feel the pressure coming on
I’ll fly despite the pressure coming on
I’ll die feeling the pressure coming
Too faded waking
Losing focus again
Dragging my bones all through the wilderness
Lethargy will not make a hostage of me
Duty’s been calling all my life
Won’t stop at green lights
Flashing to make me blind
On top I’ll stay
My passion cannot subside
Despite the pressure coming on
Right now I feel the pressure coming on
I’ll fly despite the pressure coming on
I’ll die feeling the pressure coming
I feel the pressure coming on
Right now I feel the pressure coming on
I’ll fly despite the pressure coming on
I’ll die feeling the pressure coming

Binge Mountain

I need a pick-me-up
To lift me up and take control
Losing momentum
From our self-inflicted rigmarole
Feeling hazy in a daze
Without a resting place to lay
These nights are stealing my composure
And I’m losing count
Of the toxins
That will keep my senses freaking out
I could die or survive
Either way I know I’ll pass out
So please just give me time to catch my breath
Before you find I’ve got none left
Give me a minute cos I’m on the edge
To prepare myself for what comes next
We continue to indulge in paradise
Lose our minds in the longest nights
Amused to find our darker sides
No rest until we start again
The toxins trickle through my veins
A poisoned waterfall
Sinking teeth into my brain
Sensations are at war
And all around me lies everything I came for
Masking up, making out
Falling out, making up
Take a bow, take her upstairs
I found out they’re making love
And I’ll let you be the judge
So give me something to speed up my breath
And tunnel vision in distress
No limits so I’m on the edge
I’ve dared myself for what comes next
We continue to indulge in paradise
Lose our minds in the longest nights
Amused to find our darker sides
No rest until we start again
We continue to indulge in paradise
Lose our minds in the longest nights
Amused to find our darker sides
No rest until we start again
My mind is numb, I’m tired
These chemicals have expired
These creatures keep on creeping
Sesh gremlins will soon be sleeping
I’m falling face forward, deeper into the drama
Staring and slurring
Help, I feel my vision turning
People are calling but I can’t hear a thing they’re saying
Where is the exit?
I’m falling face forward, deeper into the drama
Staring and slurring
Help, I feel my vision blurring
People are screaming
But I can’t comprehend this situation I’m in
How did this begin?
We continue to indulge in paradise
Lose our minds in the longest nights
Amused to find our darker sides
No rest until we start again
We continue to indulge in paradise
Lose our minds in the longest nights
Amused to find our darker sides
No rest until we start again

Snow in October
02:59

There’s snow in October
Her nose all red
I’m so far from sober
It blows my head
Let’s hit back these shots
And I know what’s left to do
Eclipse in my mind when the vibe’s set right
Dancing in time with the cries at night
We sing to the ones that we’ve heard time after time
Been faded for so long
I feel my patience
Won’t be long until it cracks
Not alone in my antics
But like a virgin I’m anxious for euphoria
For you
For euphoria
For euphoria
For euphoria
There’s green leaves in autumn
Her eyes all red
My heightened emotion is time well spent
I’ll call up the boy
And we know what’s left to do
We trip to the beat as we ride each wave
Smile in the heat cos we won’t be tamed
We turn up
Create something that could not be staged
Been faded for so long
I feel my patience
Won’t be long until it cracks
Not alone in my antics
But like a virgin I’m anxious for euphoria
For you
Balancing the risk I’m taking
Without breaking down
No turning back around from here
Balancing the mix I’m taking
Piff loud, rake and drown
My sorrow won’t be found in search
In search of euphoria
Oh euphoria
Oh euphoria
Oh euphoria

Exposed
03:32

Who could have guessed this freak event?
My dreams and passion bent and broken
Left to rot and die
She shone a torch into the well
Her name ringing bells
Reminding me of days gone by
Forgotten how to love
Have I exposed my soul enough?
Rip the shirt off my chest
With my back to the bed
Tip me over the edge till I fall for you
Kiss me into darkness
Watch you slowly undress
Tip me over the edge till I fall for you
I could fall for you
I could fall
I could fall for you
I could fall
I’ll pick the place
You choose the time
The rest we’ll leave to wine
To drive us into each others arms
Felt rotten when she flew
Can I expose my soul to you?
Rip the shirt off my chest
With my back to the bed
Tip me over the edge till I fall for you
Kiss me into darkness
Watch you slowly undress
Tip me over the edge till I fall for you
I could fall for you
I could fall
I could fall for you
I could fall
What you waiting for if what you want is me?
Girl I could be yours
I’ll love effortlessly
You run into my life but sprint too fast to see
It’s fun to seek and hide
Until you’re cast into the sea

Compelled
03:37

What you want? What you want from me?
What makes you feel so incomplete
And compelled to see a piece of me disappear?
Where you from? What you desperate for?
Abuse me to convince yourself
How you feel ain’t justified
Without a little help
Make a wish and come alive
Take your pick of wasted time
Summer screams for lullabies
It’s my dream to make her mine
Make a wish and come alive
Take your pick of wasted time
Summer screams for lullabies
It’s my dream to make her mine
Help me gravitate away from here
Attack my static state of mind
Overcast, I couldn’t face the cold outside
Though we know it’s temporary
We try pretend it’s forever
For fear of demons that won’t go away
Make a wish and come alive
Take your pick of wasted time
Summer screams for lullabies
It’s my dream to make her mine
Make a wish and come alive
Take your pick of wasted time
Summer screams for lullabies
It’s my dream to make her mine
I’m leaving behind my thoughts of a dream
To circumvent reality
One too many times I’ve fallen asleep
Instead of staying true to me
Me, me
Instead of staying true to me
Me, me

Searching for Love
03:57
|
|||
|
My body’s aching under strain
Think I need to get away
People staring on this train
In my eyes they see the pain
So I race against myself
Compromising on my health
These cities take me to the edge
Searching for love until I’m dead
Always searching for love
Always searching ‘round for love
Always searching for love
Always searching ‘round for love
Missed the alarm, woke up to see
That I’m now better off alone
Think it’s the harm she’s done to me
That somehow rendered strong my bones
Just navigating forever away from the swamps in my mind
I’ll run my course through this jungle
Till love’s what I find
Always searching for love
Always searching ‘round for love
Always searching for love
Always searching ‘round for love
Long I’ll roam
Drawing deeper breaths
With every passing cloud
I’ll go through the wilderness
The quest for love’s lost ground
Slow days
Bring me down when I’m OK
Make me drown in my old ways
Look for love in the wrong place
Help me get through the slow days…
Bring me back to the road

Highest Flying Bird
03:03
|

|
You are the blood inside my veins
Reaching my soul
Spreading your love throughout my bones
When I look deep into your eyes
Your innocence shines like the stars up in heaven
Always stood by your every word
You’re the highest flying bird that’s first in flight
No doubt you’ll get what you deserve
A love that’s not of this earth
Sometimes I’m nervous when I talk
But I’m reassured
By your complexion in its complexity
When all these things are said and done
Will you help me fight my demons?
Cos I’m overwhelmed
Always stood by your every word
You’re the highest flying bird that’s first in flight
No doubt you’ll get what you deserve
A love that’s not of this earth

No Passion
03:48

I caught a glimpse of the stars
Before I winced at the thought
Of letting go of what I’ve become
A mismatch of making a start and falling apart
I dove right into the trap without a counterattack
And now I wish I could forget your face
Along with every other mistake that blinded my heart
I used to contemplate and overcompensate
For a love-shaped void that you left
I’d overthink my fate and overcomplicate
Each decision, I’d deteriorate
I thought I lost every piece, a broken identity
My controls were set to self-destruct
A pilot was falling through the air and you didn’t care
I took a gigantic leap and watched the titanic sink
Put my courage to the test as I floated
Washed up and barely alive
You left me to die
I used to contemplate and overcompensate
For a love-shaped void that you left
I’d overthink my fate and overcomplicate
Each decision, I’d deteriorate
Now do you hear me loud
Now I’m clearly proud that I’m still alive
Dragged through the mud
Driven mad to become
The man with no passion to hide
No passion to
I used to contemplate and overcompensate
For a love-shaped void that you left
I’d overthink my fate and overcomplicate
Each decision, I’d deteriorate
Now do you hear me loud
Now I’m clearly proud
Dragged through the mud
Driven mad to become a man

Today
03:52
|

Today I’ve come to a realisation
I’ve been trying to escape a sense of regret
For too long
And I don’t wanna be trapped anymore
Wanna break out and rise once again
Cos it’s do or die
My life depends on this
I fell in love
Gave everything away
Leaving only skin and bones
An empty shell of a man to rust away
Dust covered romance came to stay
But I’ll set my sights back on the road
From today
Today I’m bathing in acceptance
I’ve been trying to ignore my pain and yours
For too long
Never thought I would feel that way, unexpected
Surprised to make amends
Wanna leave behind
A life not meant to be lived
I fell in love
Gave everything away
Leaving only skin and bones
An empty shell of a man to rust away
Dust covered romance came to stay
But I’ll set my sights back on the road
From today
I’ve been so dormant and motionless
Finding what’s normal ain’t effortless
Been smiling for formal impressions
Yet was crying from torturous second guesses
You saw the soul extracted from me
Cast out into the sea
A lover left for dead
But you will watch and won’t believe
The flight I’m on to my dream
I’ve seen the light today
Take-off counting down
3, 2, 1

Flashbacks
03:54
|
|||
|
I’ve been old from a young age
An overloaded gun within love’s range
I was never made to fit the mould
Like a ghost I’ll reappear when the time’s right
The speed I’ve grown it feels like a lifetime
I couldn’t wait to feel the cold
Flashbacks will hypnotise
To cast your mind to waste
Once trapped and lost inside my past
In time and space
I’ve taken off
Now I’m racing through the universe
I’ll never stop
I’ve surrendered to the universe
I’m a mix of different culture
Will contradict the stories that you’ve heard
I was never made to chase the gold
I’m like a boat disappearing on the skyline
I can feel my dream in my eyesight
I was astray and lost control
Flashbacks will hypnotise
To cast your mind to waste
Once trapped and lost inside my past
In time and space
I’ve taken off
Now I’m racing through the universe
I’ll never stop
I’ve surrendered to the universe
Flashbacks will always come and go
And leave you all alone
You’re on your own
But what you know
Is how to move along
