LMYC 03:02
The camera pans across the audience Pausing to frame an effortless face Whose smile takes on an effortful shape The viewfinder moves on It scans the crowd and it finds no one The camera pans across the audience It's sight sees the one you are, you become Victory in their eyes They've always won so the question becomes Why've you colored yourself so surprised? The camera sobs, oh exhaustion Pausing to still it's hands as they shake After one thing for 10,000 days Ready your tired eyes to never be done A job is a job and this one is one Camera stands Downcast and odd It's sight sees the one you are, you become Their eyes, hopeful guns Surprise, you're not one of them That's right, turn and run Gaze upon what they have done

Sleepy Pete 02:12
Something that I saw before Something I don't gotta remember anymore Somehow I know I will once more Somewhere where I have to break down the door because Sleepy Pete, he's asleep, he's asleep He's driving the bus but he can't see cause he's asleep, duh Don't dare tell anyone, no don't tell anyone Cross the border as Pete falls asleep That's why we call him up A whisper in a stall Coming to a stop, no explanation at all Nary a wall too tall I wonder why we choose to walk this way at all because Sleepy Pete, he's a creep, he's a creep He's driving the bus to the wide, white sea Don't dare tell anyone, no don't tell anyone Cross the border as Pete falls asleep That's why we call him up Sleepy Pete, he's asleep, he's asleep He's driving the bus but he can't see cause he's asleep, duh Don't dare tell anyone, no don't tell anyone Cross the border as Pete falls asleep That's why we call him up

Paydirt! There's a formula All the young men give us their blood And your treason in the garden of sighing angels In treason I saw all that was wrong Paydirt! There's a formula All the old girls fail to mention what they saw All that was wrong And the season, it rides on and on Scorching oblivion Sunspots burn on Will to walk gone

On Abundance 04:09
Hey baby, why don't you let me let you live for free? Just put that weight on down and come with me Hey baby, light wraps itself right all around the globe The sun's up, no matter what, so I've been told Is it shrouded? The shape of their lie? From that look you've seen something you'd hide Or is it out? Just plainly there standing? Palms turned up, so calmly demanding Hey, the sky is breaking Pieces of white and blue litter the street People walk around as if they don't know what it means Hey, why are you shaking? Sure your shoes will fail when you get far But your skin will thicken Your wounds soon scars Is it shrouded? The shape of their lie? From that look you've seen something you'd hide Or is it out? Just plainly there standing? Palms turned up, so calmly demanding Every time I see my brother He's getting skinnier, I'm sure Raising his hand up The waiter obliges, filling up his cup

Step away, step away If anyone knew where I was going Who would that be? Probably me Back away, back away I'm just flailing my arms Don't mind me Do I look like somebody who's trying to hurt you? I don't know how to do what you do I don't know how to walk away with you Do I look like somebody who knows what they mean? Is there a way? Is there a way? To walk up and pick out the right door? Revisit again, how many mistakes I've been A tidal wave, a tidal wave Washed us out and brought me back in It happened again, it happened again And I feel so much in a certain way There's some sin of mine I can't repay And when I flinch from your touch on my skin I poison the air, I breath it right in I feel so much in a certain way From dusk till dawn and through my tired days And when I flinch from your touch on my skin I poison the air, I breath it right in I feel so much in a certain way There's some sin of mine I can't repay So step away, step away If anyone knew what I was doing They wouldn't stay Now name someone I can blame So back away, back away I'm just flailing my arms Don't mind me Do I look like somebody?
