Mine 04:28
It's as if I feel everything except you now you're gone Not a trace, no ghost, no essence Not a hint of evidence We got caught up in the drama In a crisis I can cope It's only when I stop to wonder That I see the lack of hope Now I'm detached from the memory Apart I drift over time Who have I cast in the role of me - To replace what recall can't find? We've lost it all It's got my name on it I can't claim it But the hurt is mine I don't think I have it in me To give love or to receive Yet I want everyone to take me in their arms And love me while I grieve And mother we never even made one good memory Apart we drift over time Better off where you are There's no guarantee There's no guarantee We had our time What did we do with it? I can't reclaim it Now the hurt is mine

Be Well 05:32
There's a boy who's a soundless tsunami With eyes like stones skimming oceans I only ever know that I'm even here when they come to rest at me Taking leave for brief moments To feel the hug of anonymity There's a girl who's scared of men in white coats They bathe her, usher in the new She's only ever known this extinction That isn't even survival They don't know what they're doing or what to do You can't make your mind Your mind makes you Created sick Commanded to be well By men in white coats who know nothing of this hell
3.
Chasing You 05:59
Pictures blink upon a screen Just a trick of affinity Miscast in all your scenes Never what you needed me to be Not beneath these weeping skies Or electric hues of strangers' eyes They swell but hide no prize Just armour for my thin disguise There are many simple questions That can't be answered When they're put to the heart For my next impression I'll do someone that isn't falling apart I have been chasing you
4.
Valediction 05:18
We try to take a dive hoping no-one sees us It's the spaces inbetween us That's where we come alive The end has begun all delusion shatters Revealing all that matters Under a dying sun i know your name You know mine We're just the same I know just how it feels To walk those barren fields Now i'm sitting staring out to sea For no particular reason There's something on the horizon I can see And it's calling me it's time to take a fall before those outstretched arms I'll sign my name on those harms I'll say my valediction now The door is open Time to step outside The plan never changed But I wanna go for one last ride I knew your name You knew mine We were just the same And I know just how it feels To walk those barren fields Now I'm standing at the edge
