it started with zeros on the clock
there descended a great fear in the dark
passing cars flash like the children in my head
i wish someone would burn that place to the ground
rooted into self-regret cause it's hard to pray
i think i'm doing fine but it's so hard to say
i'm telling you now cause it's all come down
it's all come down for our town
oh, that's just the way things are (inevitable)
oh, i'd rather see it on fire (on fire)
i will wait for my prayer to come back
i will wait for your voice to reach me
i will wait for my prayer to come back
i will wait for your voice to reach me
rooted into self-regret cause it's hard to pray
i think i'm doing fine but it's so hard to say
i'm telling you now cause it's all come down
it's all come down for our town
[the stormclouds start to from]
as the hours pass, aymah grows
considering it'll be hard to get you
see-through and insecure
what value do i hold?
i was up all night when i lost my sight
the leaves fell down and it all came down
another day lost to the sin
cause we are never going home tonight
from this bird's eye view, the stormclouds start to form
go back to bed it's all come down
i was up last when i lost my sight
another day wasted on the sin
cause we are never going home tonight
from our bird's eye view, the stormclouds start to form
go back to bed it's all come down

Singularity

he wrote a book about it
a way to process idiots and look around it
when he found out he was stuck
he wrote his way to anywhere there was no turning back
and then the television phoned
to adapt him into a series of terrible-
-shows, and now he's running out of lines
tell yourself, what you tell yourself, no one else
all i really want is for precision to run (misliving singular)
like an algorithm waiting for the ladder to come (misliving singular)
all i really want is for your character to run out of lines (singularity)
poisonous fixations on the way they behave (misliving singular)
until xavier punched himself in the face (misliving singular)
all i really want is for your character to stop telling lies (singularity)
his hamartia followed him home
says he's enlightened but he falls into potholes
everytime he thinks about his head he's had enough
of talking to people and talking to streets as well
and then the television phoned
we're gonna pull the plug on your ritual
there's no interest in any of your stupid tales
that you tell yourself when you're told to be elsewhere
all i really want is for precision to run (misliving singular)
like an algorithm waiting for the ladder to come (misliving singular)
all i really want is for your character to run out of lines (singularity)
poisonous fixations on the way they behave (misliving singular)
until xavier punched himself in the face (misliving singular)
all i really want is for your character to stop telling lies (singularity)
all i really want is for precision to run (misliving singular)
like an algorithm waiting for the ladder to come (misliving singular)
all i really want is for your character to run out of lines (singularity)
poisonous fixations on the way they behave (misliving singular)
until xavier punched himself in the face (misliving singular)
all i really know is that i'm starting to see through your disguise (singularity)

Street Song
03:41

in the evening, coming home
broken glass beneath my feet
this town is haunted, locals say
phantoms out there in the street
turned the corner, saw the house
with boards across the windowpanes
metal piping, with no door
and no-one there to take the call
careless at the sight of you who chose to live inside their head
said it slow so settle down under the sheets across your bed
turned the corner, saw the house
this time leaving for the town
this place is haunted, but that's okay
i'm fixing the debts of my own
[the building collapses]

Scrambling for an Exit
03:37
|

|
this is history you're making it
if you increase all your sedatives
find an exit and your reckoning
set the stage for an imperative
i'm making a film about all of this
and you're gonna be the star of it
do you realise what's going on?
why you're here and maybe where you're from
i think you're finally catching on
someone's been following me
you cut your hair and grit your teeth
the observer leaves gracefully
and we're running out of time
what is yours is yours is mine
think they fed me the wrong line
the last of the fading lights
make their way into your mind
where's the exit, i can't find
someone tell me what's going on (aah)
someone tell me what's going on
this is the real thing
this is the real thing
this is the real thing
can't find the exit

[the building rebuilds itself]
the apartments all look the same
i don't know why but i know who i blame
spider secrets on stage tonight
i'm a guillotine and i don't know why
fading out like a final storm
the words don't make sense any more
the pavements and lies are what i despise
you ran out of town with your cruel eyes
one, two, three (click)
one, two, three
one, two, three
one, two, three, four, oh
the black angel descends on the overcast sky
after that the apartment towers vanished
i made it back out of the room
to see outside now i know i'm doomed
her mannerisms really couldn't lie
as she ran out of town with her cruel eyes
hidden mystique: how you make it sound
i know what you're like, i know my way around
just doing some vocals then i'll leave again
this town is haunted, locals say
i'm you've been in my dreams please take it slow
i don't know where you want me to go
had some good ideas but they're all downstream
if you know what i know, you know what i mean
there's a gun that's loaded in the back of the car
you told me your name and i know where you are
there's one key feature i can recognise
it's your twisted grin, and your cruel eyes
you ran out of town with your cruel eyes
you ran out of town with your cruel eyes
you ran out of town with your cruel eyes
you ran out of town with your cruel eyes
you ran out of town with your cruel eyes
you ran out of town with your cruel eyes
you ran out of town with your cruel eyes
you ran out of town with your cruel eyes
you ran out of town with your cruel eyes
you ran out of town with your cruel eyes
you ran out of town with your cruel eyes
you ran out of town with your cruel eyes
ow, can you fucking stop
well how am i meant to know, it just, sort of, vanished
(am i meant to am i meant to am i meant to am i meant to)
ow, can you fucking stop
well how am i meant to know, it just, sort of, vanished

Late to the Ladder

fairy knocked out by a pretty powerful poison
back to the normal quiet pain the next day
climbing up the ladder's got me thinking 'bout things
and can i read that beautiful mind?
fairy knocked out by a pretty powerful poison

and can i read that beautiful mind?
(hello?
sorry i think we were just disconnected
anyway, I'm not sure you can be the good guy this time)
i was half awake and half asleep that night
when i thought i saw the lord in my life
when the scenes showed up it wasn't what i meant
but i could tell that it was heaven sent
i picked out the words and saw the future
there's no place to go but now i see that's better
i put my faith in him and i won't be let down
as the thoughts get placed deep within our town
i was half awake and half asleep that night
when i thought i saw the lord in my life
when the scenes showed up it wasn't what i meant
but i could tell that it was heaven sent

Holographic Jazz

i searched my mind in search of missing parts
holograms seen from the start, strung out again
remember how you thought i couldn't speak at all
is that three years from christmas - i can't recall
only the name and the riff haven't changed
i know it's a nuisance
it's all in the name of change
i know it's a nuisance
only the name and the riff haven't changed
you know that's my mistake
it's all in the name of change
i know it's a nuisance
i saw through eyes that saw my atheist nights
held up by a string of light, strung out again
remember how you said you'd never let me go
is that four days off january or seven years ago?
only the name and the riff haven't changed
i know it's a nuisance
it's all in the name of change
i know it's a nuisance
only the name and the riff haven't changed
you know that's my mistake
it's all in the name of change
i know it's a nuisance
if you come in cause we're not there
take a listen to our holographic jazz
if your fortune's guided come and have a seat
or take it to the bloodbourne lover
only the name and the riff haven't changed
i know it's a nuisance
it's all in the name of change
i know it's a nuisance
only the name and the riff haven't changed
you know that's my mistake
it's all in the name of change
i know it's a nuisance
oi
-so for the drone how exactly do you want it to sound, do you want it to be like a bass-y drone or what?
-well, yeah kind of, i mean it's gonna want to be kind of ominous i feel like
-yeah so we can have it kinda like spaced out, and then
-not as ominous as like the one in mushroom cloud but like something along those lines
-oh actually shall we double it up and pan it to different ears?
-yeah that would make sense, probably
-yeah okay, yeah i feel like that would be a good idea
-and once we've done that then we've pretty much got the song done then, haven't we?
-exactly, and then should we just stop the drum machine then?
-yeah, the drum machine can stop
overall, fucking brilliant song i've gotta say

you can't make me angry evermore
you can't make me happy evermore
you can't change the mattress of my bed
you can't change these thoughts in my head
I like the way she made me think, I hate the way I never asked her
I like the peace that she's now got, I hate the way they need their lure
you can't make me angry evermore (you can't make me angry)
you can't make me happy evermore (you can't make me happy)
you can't change the mattress of my bed (you can't change the mattress)
you can't change these thoughts in my head (you can't change these thoughts)
I like the way she made me think, I hate the way I never asked her
I like the fear of god, I like the fear of asking her

Flooded Valley

as if things weren't hard enough,
i woke up to a family of ghosts,
i'll find it easy to blend in
is this what you want?
reach for what little worth i have,
search for a reason to make you stay,
i've always been the weakest link among you all
i confess I'm feeling scarred
time's not coming back
just because i made you laugh
does not mean i deserve you
i've always been a ghost to you
reach for what little worth i have,
search for a reason to make you stay,
i've always been the weakest link among you all
teach me how to let it go, lord
teach me how to let it go, lord
teach me how to let it go, lord
teach me how to let it go, lord
down at the poolside
sat down with feet in
tell me your story
i'd love to be a part of it
down at the poolside
sat down with feet in
tell me your story
i'd love to be a part of it
down at the poolside
sat down with feet in
tell me your story
i'd love to be a part of it
down at the poolside
sat down with feet in
tell me your story
i'd love to be a part of it
cause from this flooded valley
storm clouds start to fade,
get up, get up, cause hope is here
