The Balance 04:50
VERSE 1 Clothes are scattered on the floor, and some girl just stole your heart, Had the gall…. to take it in the night Take it back, you’ll never feel the sun upon your skin, VERSE 2 You run your fingers through her hair, Caress the words and turn the light, And then the waves, come crashing into you, She’s falling back, you’ll always crave the moment in her eyes, CHORUS Now if you can…take the first turn, From the heart break… the twist inside, And just as life…will play it’s worst card first, There’s a new glow… on your horizon BREAK Whenever the dark takes you down There’s always the danger you don’t return Whenever the love, fades to grey You see an angel, just turn away
2.
Black & Red 03:55
VERSE1 Between these isometric lines There’s a thousand ways to bring you back to life The only colours black and red I check your vital signs but I can’t heal the dead VERSE2 Among the unprotected lies You will fascinate and change my whole design We play a symbiotic game One of black and red, but I don’t need the pain CHORUS And maybe these scars fade in time? So we heal, and we grow As we stand at the edge of the battleground As I feed, on the antidote You’re always my danger, danger The red in my veins, and the poison contained You always bring fire, fire The ashes will fall and the damage you caused…around you OUTRO …around you As we heal and grow The damage you caused As we heal and grow The damage you caused Around you The damage you caused Around you As we heal and grow

Into The Sea 05:54
VERSE 1 The system fails and burns a hole in you You recognise your life’s on standby, The newest chipset brands us beautiful, Machine assembly, refined materials VERSE 2 A path defined, a unique serial The factory default it's nothing personal Standard features, formed and functional, Smarter managed and non-emotional VERSE 3 Now the system deems us dutiful It seems that all we have is time Judging what we do and what is suitable Time directing our own funeral CHORUS Wayward souls, we all march in unison, Some might say, we're almost born in uniform, We show less emotion now, we are formed and functional, We’re all smart managed so…watch us walk into the sea

VERSE 1 There’s a rush and then you breathe, and you fall…as you’re told There’s silence in the trees, like they know, when you’re cold I’ll guide you from the sorrow, holding tight, when he died There’s a garden on the terrace, and he smiles as you play (and you sing…) VERSE 2 So tell me how it feels, when you fall from the sky, Take me all the way, from the start to the fade, Curl into a ball, there’s a smile on your face, You help me understand; with a song that you shared CHORUS And the soil you let it fall between your fingers Now the tears are running dry among the strangers And I try to fix you But I suffocate you The sun is burning high above the garden The sun is burning high above the garden I try to fix you (to fix you) The sun is burning high (it burns high) I try to fix you (to fix you) The sun is burning high (it burns high) I try to fix you
5.
The Forest 04:29
VERSE 1 Body on body it’s a battlefield What do you hope? Whatever can come of this? What do you hope will grow? VERSE 2 Growing in, growing down underground Whatever it takes and no one to cut you down The pain won’t carry no sound CHORUS Bending and breaking The earth is now shaking And we just tower above it all We tower above it all Body on body it’s a battlefield Whatever can come of this?
6.
Spirals 05:13
VERSE 1 When I left the ring I choked, Couldn't move, I couldn't sing, I didn't think I, I didn't think I, I would ever fight again   VERSE 2 As tornadoes in the sky, Uncertain stopping like the storm, I didn't think love, I didn't think love, Would fly to me anymore CHORUS And if I falter,  There's nothing here beneath the shallows, And now it's colder,  I'm standing prone between the shadows        BREAK And now we’re here, (and here we are) We’re the last of the destitute,   There's no-one there, (so open up)  I lose my faith on the merry go round
