Until The Fire

Until the fire, turns to desire
Until the fight, becomes daylight
Oh we hang on the wire, and the walls get higher
just until the fire, turns to them
Oh we hang on the wire, and the walls get higher
just until the fire, turns to them
Until the fire, turns to desire.
Until the fight, becomes daylight
Phantom soldier, no surrender, of your splendour
Oh we hang on the wire, and the walls get higher
just until the fire, turns to them
Oh we hang on the wire, and the walls get higher
just until the fire, turns to them
Oh we hang on the wire, and the walls get higher
just until the fire, turns to them
Oh we hang on the wire, and the walls get higher
just until the fire, turns to them
Oh we hang on the wire, and the walls get higher
just until the fire, turns to them
Oh we hang on the wire, and the walls get higher
just until the fire, turns to them
Oh we hang on the wire, and the walls get higher
just until the fire, turns to them
Oh we hang on the wire, and the walls get higher
just until the fire, turns to them

The Island
04:04

Farewell, farewell dreams we once knew
Farewell, farewell to you and you
People, people in lost and found
People, people we've hit the ground
Falling fast, falling harder
Falling faster and harder the chains that bind us
Symptomatic departure
Symptomatic our heavenly future
Calling out, call protection
Calling out, calling out to the hand that blinds us
Make it count, make it alive
Make it count, make it out, this is dangerous
Poisoned paradigm
We are savages
Give them your poison lips
Broken wires, ghetto souls
Conflicted, calculated architects
Echo a new direction
Faith, lust, desire
We are sirens of, of the apocalypse
Poisoned paradigm
We are savages
Give them your poison lips
Welcome, welcome your gory bed
Welcome, welcome to the island
Glory, glory begin again
Glory, glory in betrayal
Falling fast, falling harder
Falling faster and harder the chains that bind us
Symptomatic departure
Symptomatic our heavenly future
Calling out, call protection
Calling out, calling out to the hand that blinds us
Make it count, make it alive
Make it count, make it out, this is dangerous
Poisoned paradigm
We are savages
Give them your poison lips
Attitudes, privilege
Without regret
A hazard lost at sea
A toxic intuition
Faith, lust, desire
We are sirens of, of the apocalypse
Poisoned paradigm
We are savages
Give them your poison lips
Poisoned paradigm
We are savages
Give them your poison lips
Poisoned paradigm
We are savages
We are savages

Tower of Glass
03:59

I only came here for the view
a stow-away in an elevator
half a step ahead of you
and far faster than the flight of a scream
Reverse shadow, dim lantern
I’m your favourite apparition
that makes your ears and fingers burn
I am your amnesiac kingdom
Falling from your tower of glass
Falling from your tower of glass
Falling from your tower of glass
Tower of Glass
Tower
Spell turned on a sorcerer
an inland sea swept up below you
and rose with every passing hour
until there was only one way to fall
Falling from your tower of glass
Falling from your tower of glass
Falling from your tower of glass
Falling from your tower of glass
Falling from your tower of glass
Falling from your tower of glass
Climbing your tower of glass, climbing, climbing
Climbing your tower of glass, climbing, climbing
Climbing your tower of glass, climbing, climbing
Climbing your tower of glass, climbing, climbing
Climbing your tower of glass
Climbing your tower of glass

Far From Home
03:35
|
|||
|
We wave bye bye to the city, its rarity and energy
from the East is how we’ll come, just like the sun
as it breaks the canopy.
The weaponry, ideas, flames and reverie
for when the rays cut through the calm, with no alarm
just a sense of something...
…On the way
We’re O.K.
Safe and sound
Far from home
South is where we’ll be unfamiliar and free
in the West is where we’ll rise, just like the smoke
as it starts to hurt our eyes.
Their weaponry, their lead and steel and verdigris
to protect what they don’t know, so far below
they think we got caught...
...a world away
We’re O.K.
Safe and sound
Far from home
On the way
We’re O.K.
Safe and sound
Far from home

Paper Highways
03:37
|

|
We sleepwalk into fire
A cloud of doubt just passed us by
We hide the truth behind a screen
This fire won't burn my dream
Weightless you were dreaming
When you wake don't forget
This world keeps turning
If the sun sets to the west
They put their trust in tarot cards
New Age of Reason proved us right
Suspicion drives as nature screams
This fire won't burn my dream
Weightless you were dreaming
When you wake don't forget
This world keeps turning
If the sun sets to the west
Burning it keeps turning
If the sun sets to the west
And if the world should stands still
There won't be much left to say
I'll find the next rugged hill
And let the wind blow your name away
Weightless you were dreaming
When you wake don't forget
This world keeps turning
If the sun sets to the west
Weightless you were dreaming
When you wake don't forget
This world keeps turning
If the sun sets to the west
Burning it keeps turning
If the sun sets to the west

The Animals

There's no wrong, there's no God
There's no harm, there's no love
We are more like you
Than the ones that you knew
Phantom road, erased address
Duplicate queen, dismantled cross
We are more like you
Than the ones that you knew
Is it that we know we are animals
Or because to them we are animals
You're inventing words for defending me
While lined up to shoot for the enemy
While lined up to shoot for the enemy
You're inventing words for defending me
It's because to them we are animals
Or because we know we are animals
Concrete soul, machine-read heart
Poison creed, primate savant
We are more like you
Than the ones that you knew
Is it that we know we are animals
Or because to them we are animals
You're inventing words for defending me
While lined up to shoot for the enemy
While lined up to shoot for the enemy
You're inventing words for defending me
It's because to them we are animals
Or because we know we are animals
Is it that we know we are animals
Or because to them we are animals
You're inventing words for defending me
While lined up to shoot for the enemy
While lined up to shoot for the enemy
You're inventing words for defending me
It's because to them we are animals
Or because we know we are animals
There's no wrong, there's no God
There's no harm, there's no love
We are more like you
Than the ones that you knew

Deadzone

Through shattered glass there's headlights
I swear I died and came back to life
Maybe as someone else
For better, for worse, I'm forever changed
Abandoned lives on stereo
Talking all night about what they know
But maybe this horror show
Advice is the price that the people pay
Through shattered glass I see it coming
I can't hold back, my body's aching
For this,
For this
You ain’t got no right, you ain’t got no right
You are not my saviour
Wake me up tonight, wake me up tonight
Baby I'm in danger
You are not my ride, you are not my ride
I won't go gently,
I don't like you, I don't want to
I'll remind you
You won't win this fight, you won't win this fight
I'm the wrong girl on the wrong night
Visions haunt my mind, visions haunt my mind
Wild dreams or an omen?
You ain’t got no right, you ain’t got no right
So don't coming knocking with your night moves
My resistance is your weakness
Vibrations soar through my bones
Am I a bird now? Am I atoned?
Maybe. Or something else
The purr of the flames, I can't get away
Unnatural world with no echo
Have I become immaterial?
Maybe. My blood still flows
For better, for worse I'm forever changed
Don't coming knocking with your night moves
My resistance is your weakness

Strange days and celebrations
A soft warning, are we drowning?
Late night congratulations
Eyes wide : we're enchanting
Party fears and declarations
I've got something I want to tell you
Lost trails of conversation
I want you to break me out
How does it feel?
This true, true, coming dream
I will hold you tight
My figurine
Party fears and declarations
Heart is pounding, are we surrounded?
Room full of aspirations
True lies : are we dreamers?
All bound to expectations
Cannot help it, the lucky ones
Strange days and celebrations
I want you to break me out
How does it feel?
This true, true, coming dream
I will hold you tight, my figurine
True coming dream
Dreams for protection
Blow those candles out, another year
How does it feel?
This true, true, coming dream
I will hold you tight, my figurine
True coming dream
Dreams for protection
Blow those candles out, another year
How does it feel?
This true coming dream?
There's no place for me
Me without you

You've Changed

You've changed, what were you thinking?
You've changed
Girl buys a dress
So bored
Repetitive, your greed
A confidante all gone
So take a bow
Too far
So now you're a mess, oh no!
Come take me on, you'll lose
It's your happiness, but what's real?
I'll make you sorry, oh yeah!
You've changed, what were you thinking?
You've changed

Ballerina palm reader sitting on the stairs
Telling you the future you shouldn't be aware of
Ballerina palm reader sitting on the stairs
Telling you the future you shouldn't be aware of
The seven seas I hear
As blue eyes disappear
You'll cross the hemispheres
And now is always near
In time
In time
Ballerina palm reader sitting on the stairs
Telling you the future you shouldn't be aware of
Ballerina palm reader sitting on the stairs
Telling you the future you shouldn't be aware of
You'll walk the longest pier
The Alpine skies will clear
Riddles never fear
And now is always near
In time
In time
Ballerina palm reader staring at your face
Pupils are dilating, will you find your way

The Mountain
04:32
|

|
We woke up on the mountain
air was clear sun was shining
all we could see was silver
and so we started thinking
then when we came off the mountain
all of the lanes were static
all expressions were frozen
over each other’s traffic
Second time the dusk was setting
streets filled with different people
all of them tired and distant
some of them tried to know us
we had carried our instruments
and hid behind our features
laughed and joked and hoped that they'd have
they'd have something to show us
At sea in the cities
Alien in the suburbs
Adrift on peripheries
Wake up back on the mountain
At sea in the cities
Alien in the suburbs
Adrift on peripheries
Wake up back on the mountain
We went back to the mountain
they spoke a different language
a mess of walls and fences
the mountain we created
our faces amongst the landed
except that we were nameless
only inherited stories
since we fell off the mountain
Then the mountain came between us
and took away the buildings
we were the half remembered
the only two remaining
then we knew we were the mountain
you said “I’ll do this for you”
covered what we had broken
forgot about the mountain.
At sea in the cities
Alien in the suburbs
Adrift on peripheries
Wake up back on the mountain
At sea in the cities
Alien in the suburbs
Adrift on peripheries
Wake up back on the mountain

How's the water?
The blue pill's for you
Are they poisoning all that's left till you're alone in a dark room
And all is forgiven
Water gone
I will comfort you, my blood
The clock is ticking
But a calm looms over your face like you are not alone
I am your scars frozen and framed
For the good times
A photograph found
Bound by your secrets
Hidden deep with old memories
When you were young and beautiful (Beautiful and free)
Myth and fantasy and fantastic times
I never asked you all the damn things I wanted to
But tomorrow is another day
Tomorrow is, tomorrow is another day
Oh father
Watch him pray for you
Is he comforting distraction?
But there's a boy in the corner
And it is forbidden
You alone, Is this earth, is this heaven?
The clock is ticking
But a calm looms over your face like you are not alone
I am your scars frozen and framed
For the good times
A photograph found
Bound by your secrets
Hidden deep with old memories
When you were young and beautiful (Beautiful and free)
Myth and fantasy and fantastic times
I never asked you all the fucking things I wanted to
But tomorrow is another day
Tomorrow is, tomorrow is another day
