Tough Luck 02:25
My time assigned, the fears I have are on hold Crystals aligned the scattering is controlled Beams so strong are destined to come down A written word and then a broken pencil I thought I’d learn, I thought I had potential I don’t need to be the one to try When the going gets tough The tough get going Guess that requires knowing You're tough A second third is just a minute portion Can’t come to terms, not with the full distortion One can only grow to bend so far They always say geniuses are all tortured But I’m ok, blame it on my good fortune Just don’t think about the other way When the going gets tough The tough get going Guess that requires knowing You're tough

Securities 03:09
We can settle down In our own little place Just outside of town At least a bit aways And, at least I'm safe From the wind and rain Let's hope that's enough To keep us here in love Symbiotic or parasatic Similar til I get too sick Friends I thought I'd keep Sliding out of touch Maybe I do sleep Just a bit too much But, at least I'm safe From the wind and rain Let's hope that's enough To keep us here in love Time heals all wounds I'm unwinding If I love you What good timing So I've given up On my foolish plans Things best left undone Already had my chance Well, at least I'm safe From the wind and rain Let's hope that's enough To keep us here in love Symbiotic or parasatic Similar til I get too sick Time heals all wounds I'm unwinding If I love you What good timing

Gold 02:32
Yeah you glimmer Sure you shine I feel you swimming Round my mind But your anything but gold Anything but gold There’s a rumor Pond picks size I thought you grew more Lensed lies And your anything but gold Anything but gold Who'd remember After all this time Is that an ember Or a trick of the light?
4.
Tamed 02:37
I said I could be tamed But why would you believe a line I know I can change But where would I find the time At it far too long You think I'd be done by now Should be staring at the sun If only I could make it out I said I could be tamed But why would you believe a lion I know I can change But where would I find the time
5.
Leave 03:13
Take a break to fix yourself Focus on your mental health It’s a chance to stop and breathe Can’t you tell it’s time to leave It’s time to leave Remember it’s no-one’s fault We’re all sure you’re worth your salt It’s okay to need relief We won’t tell it’s time to leave It’s time to leave Let us know when you discern The time frame for your return Until then keep your receipts Best of luck it’s time to leave It’s time to leave
6.
One Thing 03:33
I could not find no devil in the details Nor playing in my idle hands And though I might have dirt beneath all of my nails At least I’ve got some peace of mind There is just one thing Left to do Try to divine to the source of all my failures God knows you’ll only come up blank But still I think they’re not as bad as all yours Even without one thing to thank There is just one thing Left to do There is merit in trying to keep things simple Even when at the cost of truth The subtleties will end up stuck in limbo An Occam's cut ignoring proof There is just one thing Wrong with you
7.
Punch 02:58
Get on up, you can't survive By thinking it through or taking time I said get on up, you can't subsist By putting it on your todo list I said let on up you can't succeed By measuring triumph by degrees I said get on up, you can't surprise By doing the same thing your whole life Oh, if I haven't figured it out by now Maybe it's not meant be Frankly it wouldn't surprise me Though I sure gave my best try You can't deny Something just aint right So what's the point in lying Get on up, you can't survive By thinking it through or taking time I said get on up, you can't subsist By putting it on your todo list I said let on up you can't succeed By measuring triumph by degrees I said get on up, you can't surprise By doing the same thing your whole life So, I gotta find something else but how do you share yourself when there's feeling like nothing to tell Sure some thoughts you cannot shake But why not make The most of your mistakes For just another night

The Night 02:52
You have to go out of your way to get by The detour is further than we all had in mind But by the time we finally decide That turning back is better we all are so tired But then there is the night And afterwards the night But finally there's night There's only ever night And is it worth it to walk a mile In someone elses shoes if they aren't the right style The experience is less justifable When you can see the footsteps've been there all the while But then there is the night And afterwards the night But finally there's night There's only ever night They talk about one day at a time But anyone can tell you that the day is just fine Daydream about untenable highs It's easy to believe when surrounded in light But then there is the night And afterwards the night But finally there's night There's only ever night But after all that night Eventually there's night And in the end there's night And in the end it's night The night the night the night

Helicopter 04:39
Helicopter Parents want the Best for daughters And sons There is only A very lonely Decade oh since I had one It’s gonna take some work so I gotta be sure I'm pretty sure I'm up for it I just need to take charge After my time at large I'm pretty sure I'm up for it Helicopter Parents want the Best for daughters And sons There is only A very lonely Decade oh since I had one The data does suggest I've been to long at rest I'm pretty sure I'm up for it And everyone supports Me following this course I'm pretty sure I'm up for it Helicopter Parents want the Best for daughters And sons There is only A very lonely Decade oh since I had one The peaks of the mountains So clear at this distance I'm pretty sure I'm up for it The worst is the approach The daunting visage grows I'm pretty sure I'm up for it
10.
Leverage 02:32
They all say That if you love Something you Must let it go If it comes back Well, then you know I think that's why We've stayed so close You and I Have come so far The smallest wedge Can tear us apart It's who I was And who you are Let's put the horse Before the cart Can history Really be just The time we spent Being an us Start out with A lack of trust Now a lack Of interest
11.
Closer 02:34
It's good for exposure It's better for a laugh It's best to find closure In the aftermath Another photograph It's hard to find relief It's harder to forget It's hardest to believe It's mostly for the best Cause what about the rest It's weird to be alive Weirder yet to find a friend But weirdest is the feeling That even in the end I'd do it all again
12.
Found another ghost She doesn't need me for a host It's more than I can say for you I know you said I'd be better off dead But when's the last time you told the truth? And after all that life Who wouldn't want to be the wife Of such a perfect catch as me The question is whether I'll stand Being caught again
13.
Be Long 02:17
Feels like quite a while since I set foot in the hall Linoleum grey tiles, and the posters on the wall feature prominently in my anxiety dreams and after all this time I am left thinking I won’t be long now. The paperwork is filed And about to be approved I've come and sat and smiled And wrestled with the truth So I believe That I am ready so I guess right now there's no debating I won't belong now
14.
Wait 00:59
15.
I'm afraid what if I'm not the same Wait ain't that why I took that break? There're still days I don't feel like being awake But hey there're also ways to remind myself why I first came
16.
The Sound 02:12
You're always feeling cold Especially at sundown Another heart to hold Another thing to find out I never felt such joy The way I do when you're around Confident, cool, and coy A second half finally found Already made my choice I almost say it out loud Then I hear your voice "Amazing Grace how sweet the sound"
