Triceratops 03:52
Oh, you’re still looking through tinted windows again, waiting around Your Triceratops left three holes in my back try nursing the wound when you only got two hands. Oh I’m still aware of your hungeress stare, look away Your triceratops left three holes in my back try nursing the wound when you only got two. You better change the tape recorder cause it’s skipping all the time You’re looking drained again and your running out of time. Oh you can’t make sense of it what are these words, that I portray You’re Triceratops left three holes in my back try nursing the wound when you’ve only got two. You better change the tape recorder cause it’s skipping all the time You’re looking drained again and your running out of time.

Lottery 03:04
It’s the cardio hearing a radio another stagnant show for this rodeo, absent radio Cause it’s a dead end trend uninspire your friends for the muted blend as it sinks into the descent, absent radio. Cause all my hounded affairs Feels like I’m working a graveyard shift Cause all my hounded affairs Creep like vultures of the night feeding on decay. It’s the cardio hearing a radio another stagnant show for this rodeo, absent radio Why you gotta tune into this and play pretend, we’re all just slaves in the lottery. Cause all my hounded affairs Feels like I’m working a graveyard shift Cause all my hounded affairs Creep like vultures of the night feeding on decay. And I swear it by the man who works to waste And I saw on your ageing widowed face And I swear it by the man who works to waste Works to waste. I’ll never bind my hand for you.

Weapons 03:12
Look up to the sky now children and see the giant thumb Cause they got our lives on hold on these border controls I’m escaping to the greenest grass with a sweetest meadow Cause no longer will their blood spill on our frozen lake of fields. How can we say this is being free, so place your back to the walls and pray. Weapons Look up to the sky now children see the giant thumb Pushing down like it’s a crushing a colony of ants Their antennas pointed to the sky as they’re gazing up at the mystery I’m escaping to the greenest grass with a sweetest meadow No longer will their legs crush under weighted boots. How can we say this is being free, so place your back to the walls and pray. How can we say this is being free, it was never about you anyway.

Oh look at the mess on the floor, the fragments in your hand, pick out each piece I’ve been bouncing around in my delicate mind, you promise and promise to infinite lands Let me give you treasures to make our amends, i’ll make you a necklace from dinosaur bones. Dinosaur Bones So you stray from our luscious connect, weak and wandering soul, and you think that the doorway is closed. I’ve been bouncing around in my delicate mind, you promise and promise to infinite lands Let me give you treasures to make our amends, i’ll make you a necklace from dinosaur bones. Dinosaur Bones We can’t keep folding. We can’t keep folding down.

You’re creeping me out with your archaic smile, you took it all, with your promise grinning. I never wanted it to be like this, you made your choice, what a vague setting for our plastic wedding. Your white tears on your black dress. You’re a sweet little wraith, with dazzling fingernails,a princess peach on a red sand beach I never wanted it to be like this, you made your choice, what a vague setting for our plastic wedding. You white tears on your black dress, plastic.

Welcome to 202020 A.D By A.D I mean after death, insect city Would you stand on a roach But sit there folding knitted jumpers? To place upon your pedigree chum All our dreams of phantasy Are melting into lunacy We sit there staring at our screens Sliding down and reading things A reverie of make believe Of pretend lives of misery Distraction might just kill us all The wave we made might make this planet blue And drown us fucking all When they started putting the orcas in bath tubs When they started clipping budgies wings How would you like a prison sentence? Then why you wanna play god? All our dreams of phantasy Are melting into lunacy We sit there staring at our screens Sliding down and reading things A reverie of make believe Of pretend lives of misery Distraction might just kill us all The wave we made might make this planet blue And drown us fucking all All our dreams of phantasy Are melting into lunacy We sit there staring at our screens This information The wave we made might make this planet blue And drown us fucking all

Monday Man 03:45
It's seems to be moving real fast, to fast to understand The weekends roll on over deja vu, revive, repeat And when I should be getting sleep I dance these cobblestone streets To give my tiny time meaning How can we dream When we're stuck in this routine? I'm television static On a Monday Like a Bengal tiger I'm high as a kite Your ribbons are chains That big cat barely remains And your in the photo Cause I dance these cobblestone streets To give my tiny time meaning How can we dream When we're stuck in this routine? I'm television static On a Monday When I wake my organs shake They are unhappy with my mistakes Like sleeping tigers, I dreamed of it And screeching clocks, they melt ticking How can we dream When we're stuck in this routine? I'm television static On a Monday How can we dream When we're stuck in this routine? I'm television static On a Monday

Beached whales, fat cats, black holes, black rats Cause beached whales, fat cats, black holes, black rats Crushed by weight, our lungs they break Then we choke, then we cry Then like flies, like flies we die Spread out the beach flippers, flapless Blubber full of rubber, of tyres they thought were liquorice Crushed by weight, our lungs they break Then we choke, then we cry Then like flies, like flies we die How can you be this? Darling I've been here before without you How can you be this? Darling I've been here before without you How can you be this? Darling I've been here before without you How can you be this? Darling I've been here before without you Violent water take me Choking on rubber tyres and disposable straws Spoiled water take me

It's the faces in the walls They whisper over to me But I can't hear them anyway Cause my ears are humming From a 500w transistor But it's those sound waves that keep me from drowning myself in a bath tub My body hung like festive lanterns That were forgotten to be lit And somebody's frozen and still Like a Choc Ice or dead mice Or emperor penguins surviving the artic There's a darkness down in Chinatown Where the staggered streets and concrete frowns still Still get me down Don't float off away Tied ribbons just stay If you float away Our bodies let go Somebody's entombed underground Like pharaohs with organs in clay pots Tinted with gold but I'm digging holes, not my grave though Cause I'm climbing out of these walls, these walls Cause every time I reach my peak I'm face to face with an avalanche There's a darkness down in Chinatown Where the staggered streets and concrete frowns still Still get me down Don't float off away Tied ribbons just stay If you float away Our bodies let go Blood in the water His eyes roll black Halcyon pools of gore Falling in front of it All of these times crushing Under a ten ton lorry Cause I can't pretend How I feel about you anymore

They couldn't seem to rid a plague A fear of an eternal grave Turns blood against affinity Why can't you love us equally? They couldn't seem to rid a plague A fear of an eternal grave Turns blood against affinity Why can't you love us equally? Can't quite shake it The gripping pious hands A glowing promise land With infinite white sand Ancient scriptures turn blood against blood Turn fathers on sons, it's as cold as the night They couldn't seem to rid a plague A fear of an eternal grave Turns blood against affinity Why can't you love us equally? Can't quite shake it The words are scribbled in They're scratched in my arms When language comes verse Ancient scriptures turn blood against blood Turn fathers on sons, it's as cold as the night They couldn't seem to rid a plague A fear of an eternal grave Turns blood against affinity Why can't you love us equally? They couldn't seem to rid a plague A fear of an eternal grave Let go, let go, let go, let go Let go, let go, let go, let go
