Stopped In A Heartbeat
04:01

Stopped in a heartbeat
Stopped in a heartbeat
Taking your medicine
Is sometimes hard to take
Getting much older
Being young is hard to fake
All that we are
All that we once were
All that we are
All that we once were
We get stopped in a heartbeat
Put our hopes and fears to rest
We get stopped in a heartbeat
Get tired lie down and go to bed
Stopped in a heartbeat
Stopped in a heartbeat
Taking your tablets
Writing your will just in case
Growing up around things
New values not found in haste
I can’t go on no more
Just feels like
All that we are
All that we once were
All that we are
Wanted is to be gone
We get stopped in a heartbeat
Put our hopes and fears to rest
We get stopped in a heartbeat
Get tired lie down and go to bed
Stopped in a heartbeat
Stopped in a heartbeat
Taking your medicine
Is sometimes hard to take
Getting much older
Being young is hard to fake
Youth is so hard to fake
All that we are
All that we once were
All that we are
Wanted to be so bad is gone
We get stopped in a heartbeat
Put our hopes and fears to rest
We get stopped in a heartbeat
Get tired lie down and go to our beds
Youth is so hard to fake
Friends are so hard to make

Day of Now
04:07
|
|||
Do you feel like a going concern
Have all of life’s skills
Do you feel like a good citizen
In not taking your chance
Just because you don’t know how to dance
We have a day of now
Where nothing seems to stand for much
We live in this day of now
Learning to overcome our emotions
As we sail along obliviously
Do you yearn for a past that existed
Hate all of life’s chills
Do you feel like your connected
Into the wider picture
That you fit in the frame and your not a mixture
We have a day of now
Where nothing seems to stand for much
We live in this day of now
Learning to overcome our emotions
As we sail along obliviously
We have a day of now
We have a day of now
We have a day of now
(Where nothing seems to stand for much
We live in this day of now
Learning to be a different thing
A living breathing conundrum
In this day of)
Now

Damage The Soul
03:10
|
|||
Where there is gold
There will be cold
All bitter and rough
As you grow out of touch
Going far
Going too far to not
Damage the soul
Damage the soul
Break everything in your heart and
Damage the soul
Once I was old
Now I am bold
Maybe I’ve had enough
Call me what you must
Knowing all
Knowing it all to not
Damage the soul
Damage the soul
Break everything in your heart and
Damage the soul
What if I can’t wake up
What if I’m on go slow
Baby steps to get back
What I already know
I won’t
Damage the soul
Damage the soul
Break everything in your heart and
Damage the soul
Damage the soul
Damage the soul
Break everything in your heart and
Damage the soul
Damage the soul
Damage the soul

Wellbeing

Don’t come across much anymore
Living ain’t easy it’s not like you can go to the store
Times have changed
Life has evolved into inter attainments
Can’t keep your sanity
Treat your profanities
Don’t notice the good things in this world
Giving up your time for others is a crime
Times have changed
You can’t keep your sanity
The onus is on you
To be wellbeing
Don’t wait for others
To get wellbeing
Wellbeing
Wellbeing
Don’t notice the good things in this world
Giving up your time for others is a crime
Times have changed
You can’t keep your sanity
Can’t keep your sanity
Treat your profanities
Don’t notice the good things in this world
Times have changed
The onus is on you
To be wellbeing
Don’t wait for others
To get wellbeing

Priceless Things
04:39
|

(Like these priceless things)
(Like these priceless things)
I got to be a star
A bright brilliant star
Sitting up in the sky
Looking down on all mankind
I knew my stuff I made people sit up
The only light at the time that was tough
Yeah that was tough
You need these priceless things
Like you need these priceless things
You need these priceless things
Like you need these priceless things
(Priceless things)
I got to be a star
A bright brilliant star
Sitting up in the sky
Knowing more than all the gods
(Priceless things)
I got to be a star
A bright brilliant star
You need these priceless things
Like you need these priceless things
You need these priceless things
Like you need those priceless things
(Priceless things)
You need these priceless things
Like you need these priceless things
You need these priceless things
Like you need these priceless things
You need those priceless things
Priceless things

Drum People
03:37
|
|||
Can’t think of what to do next
Lifting the lid of Pandora’s box
It’s about as exciting as it gets
Making a living being a slave
I feel it all
Been an done that
Life’s foibles
Risks and shattered dreams
I believe in something
I believe in something
I believe in something (new)
I believe in something (else)
Will it be our time next
Verification of an idea
It’s the way it’s all heading
Turning people into machine
Drum people
Into slaves
Drum people
Into machines
I believe in something
I believe in something
I believe in something (new)
I believe in something (else)
Not drum people
Not drum people

Candlelit Popsicle
04:19
|
|||
I swallowed the dictionary
Programmed to be the ultimate machine
I yearned to be more human
As if I was human anyway
I broke free
I ripped up the manual
Turned off the code bit by bit
Unplugged my CPU
And breathed my first
Now I need another
A human to love my old circuits
My candlelit popsicle
A girl that makes my heart hurt
Words come more easily now
Before the syntax made me cold
I still stumble with phrases
My language is developing just like my soul
Now I need another
A human to love my old circuits
My candlelit popsicle
A girl that makes my heart hurt
My candlelit popsicle
A girl that makes my heart hurt
We broke free
We ripped up the manual
Turned off the code bit by bit
Unplugged our CPU’s
And breathed the first day, of the rest of our lives
Now I have another
A human to love my old circuits
My candlelit popsicle
A girl that makes my heart hurt
A girl that makes my heart hurt
Candlelit popsicle
(Words were just random
Strung together with a zero or a one)
A girl that makes my heart hurt
Candlelit popsicle
(Words were just random
Strung together with a zero or a one)

You Can't Love Everybody
04:37
|
|||
You can’t love everybody
You can’t love everybody
Fate belongs to others
It’s not for the faint hearted
The weak or the poor
All the non starters
You can’t love everybody
Your heart rules your head but
You can’t love everybody
When your head tells you to close your eyes
Power goes to our heads
It’s not for the mean spirited
The strong or the rich
All the get up and goers
You can’t love everybody
Your heart rules your head but
You can’t love everybody
When your head tells you to close your eyes
It’s self blindness
Unkindness
A willingness to look the other way
Because of the fear it will be you one day
You can’t love everybody
Your heart rules your head but
You can’t love everybody
When your head tells you to close your eyes
You can’t love everybody
Your heart rules your head
You can’t love everybody
When you close your eyes
When you close your eyes
You can’t love everybody
You can’t love everybody

The Struggle
02:22
|
|||
I struggle to get out of bed
Modern life as an automaton
I struggle to get out of here
Modern life as an automation
Take it easy
Take it slow
Drown your sorrows
Bits and bytes
I struggle to get out of bed
Modern life as an automation
I struggle to get out of here
Modern life as an automation
I want to get better
Grow my capacity
Do all the robot stuff
That the future promised us
I will get it together
Change my modus
Operandi
Take charge and show those humans
I struggle to get out of bed
I struggle to get out of bed
Modern life as an automation
I struggle to get out of here
Modern life as an automaton
Modern life as an automaton
