Can't Work It Out
05:41
|
|||
The money walks and money talks
But seems it's lost its voice tonight
And people walk and people talk
But mostly they don't give a shite
We hurtle through the universe
We're meant to make sense of our lives
A tenant on the Tellus hive
Believe in myths that are contrived
Can't work it out
I'm full of doubt
Seems pointless now to scream and shout
We have to break the whole thing down
And build it up and up again
The voices pause but never stop
And always seem to be the same
Can't work it out
I'm full of doubt
Seems pointless now to scream and shout

Clarity Phase
04:13
|
|||
You scrub and you polish, but cannot get clean
You saw what you thought what you thought you had possibly seen
The nuance is often obscured in the light
There's comfort in thought and you think you are possibly right
You've gone a distance
Questioned existence
Doubting persistence
Sun rises over, landscapes and cities
History surrounds you
Future invites you
Foresight reflection
Shows you are learning
You are a haven for thought
The dye maybe cast but the colour will fade
feed in more colour and don't be afraid of the change
It's natural for goals to be hit or be missed
Sometimes you know that is it
That is just how it is

Sonic Freeze
04:28
|
|||
Words stream like caustic oil
In schadenfreude in vain
He's happy, she's happy in shame.
Kine ahora(genuine praise)
Hok A Chainik (too much nonsense talk)
Kvell (take pride)
Mit du kvetching (with you complaining)
Mislegoss (bizarre beliefs or actions)
Nudnik (pest or annoying person)
This is the semblence
Mechanics of the mind
M middle
Me middle
Middle-aged mortal medium
Mediocre maudlin moping
Misanthropic more moreover
My mind maybe missing
Melting morphed mortified
Moulded minutia made me mollified
More moreover moribund mixed method
Meagre mindless me
Can't be the future there's a line in the sand
The lovers must be sincere in themselves
But be strong and not trounced by demand
The bitterness is hard to view and doubtless felt by some
The social turns the media burns
Amalgam sonic one
Self termination here, plausibility
Feel the Sonic Freeze.

Honest Man
05:15
|
|||
Feel, feel the friction
Should we say what's on our minds
Someone else decide, we'll decline
Make a wish, as a child, in a dream.
Lost alone, oh this is bleak
And what we seek can't be found
No way no how
I was lost in the valley
Where the prophets roamed
And hatched their plans
To conquer the guilt we all understand
Tears in the dark, trembling rage
Filled with shame
Who's to blame, who's to blame
For this tortuous trap
When the skies collapse
Could it be, could it be me
In the dark as I judge without sight
Not acknowledging plight
Was I wrong to deny who I am
Honest Man

Mind of a Human
03:57
|

There's a Big Ox next to my pillow
And Teddy rests his head on the wall
In a bag there's a couple of singles
And a Father's Day card from you all.
A watch is ticking time of existence
Reminder of this temporal state
And a radio confirms there is science
Human writes creation and fate
And the neurons wait on the synapse gate
When a thought enacts and the bones react
And the neurons wait on the synapse gate
When a thought enacts and the bones react
A mind of a human, a mind of a human
A mind of a human, a mind of a human
Psychologically demanding
Providence a state of mind
Sentience a question of honour
Knowledge has a future to find
And a watch is ticking time of existence
Reminder of this temporal state
And a radio confirms there is science
Human writes creation and fate

What Do You Know?
04:45
|
|||
Take a punt, a gamble done with style
Wit and guile
You know me and what's behind my smile
And I know
I can't live my life like I'm on trial
Yes I know
Life is short and I've lived quite a while
Quite a while
What do you know?
I should say I saw you as a friend
Some time to spend
Feeling down?
The same stuff comes around, yes I know
You'll survive, much rather be alive, just feel it
No regrets, just live it to the end
And with some luck you'll find some truth and find some love
And share it with good friends
What do you know?
Don't despair, you're floating in the air
So ground it
Taking flight, a bird with feathers white
Is fine but
Fantasy, it doesn't seem quite me
The suit and tie guy
What you got?
You know it's quite alot
Now are you trying?
What do you know?
I should say I saw you as a friend
Some time to spend
Feeling down?
The same stuff comes around, yes I know
You'll survive, much rather be alive, just feel it
No regrets, just live it to the end
And with some luck you'll find some truth and find some love
And share it with good friends
What do you know?

Plausible Cause
04:25
|
|||
The steam comes out of his ears
Been that way for years and years
No way can he be content
A smoking gun of contempt
10,000 miles in his stare
Ground down his teeth in despair
He's losing hope losing hair
You might not want to go there
He's eating food full of fat
He takes a beating for that
He says well, well that is that
And takes a beating for that
I am a man of rage of no specific age
And my name's not on the page
Not looking for sympathy
Would like some self-esteem
It's a symptom of the age
The smoke comes out of his ears
Been that way for years and years
No way can he be content
A smoking gun of contempt
He's eating food full of fat
He takes a beating for that
He says well, well that is that
And takes a beating for that
