I will lie
facing down
and I feel proud
I will fall
deeper now
and I'll lose you
pure and always unrefined
the pollen will keep
you alive
I will lie facing down
and I feel proud
if there’s a fire then let it burn
I will tear you all apart
kaleidoscopes will form a star
here lies
my brother I can see
he's inside the floor
heavy stare of open eyes
the honey will keep
you alive
I will fall deeper now
and I'll lose you
if there's a fire then let it burn
every man and child
every man and child
endless and the wild
they believe
they believe
they believe
they believe in
everything you say
they believe
they believe
they believe
they believe in
everything you say
I apologise for my state of mind
and making all the children cry
but I am a guide for humankind
and no matter how hard I try
Have you seen the look in the giants eye?
I'm too afraid to ever fly
he doesn't seem to understand
what more can I say?
Honeyguide i know i can sympathise
They truly are a wicked kind
but you’re still a plague upon my hive
and I still can't sleep at night
you bring the devil right to my door
you take it all and come back for (more)
I pray the price of honey will
I pray the price will
fall

Fortune is the safer soul
And all of my mistakes
Are getting old
And growing tall
With every passing day
Fortune is the safer soul
And all of my mistakes
Are lying in the shade
Living on the consciousness estate
Lights are on and no ones home
I will find doors open
Head to toe in skin and bone
Starving in the ritual
I’ll fall asleep
Wander round the riverside
My eyes closed
i will stay
On the surface for another
Day
I will stay
I will await on
And I will wear the sun
And I will wear the orthodox crown
Wear you down
I will await on
The surface for another day
And i will wait until the sun
Feels like
Lying in a conscious state
And they still ask
Me for more
Smile on the face of earth
Keep on going
I know
That you’ve heard
I’ll fall asleep
Wander round the riverside
With my eyes closed
I will stay
On the surface for another day
I will stay
I will await on
And I will wear the sun
And I will wear the orthodox crown
Wear you down
I will await
On the surface for another day
And I will wait until the sun feels like
I will await on
And I will wear the sun
And I will wear the orthodox crown
Wear you down
I will await
On the surface for another day
And I will wait until the sun feels like home

Hoping for another
Womb to call my own
I'll be a son to anyone
I will forge another
Form above them all
I'll be a god to anyone
Seeing it like I do
I do
I will stare at the sun
Till I am heard
seeing it like I do
I do
as I stare at the sun
Till my eyes burn
dreaming in but never of anyone
Making me all my decisions
my intentions will
They keep me well
I claim to you or anyone
Seeing it like I do
I do
I will stare at the sun
till I am heard
Seeing it like I do
I do
As I stare at the sun
till my eyes burn
I’m a sun born
of burning eyes
cut right through the stomach
down the only mastodon
cut right through the stomach
silence makes a sound
Atlas i can barely see
What's in front of me
Atlas i no longer feel
Anything at all
even with an open wound
I'm surprised it phases you
even with an open wound
you still watch me
even with an open wound
I'm surprised it phases you
even with an open wound
you still watch me move
you stare and watch me burn away
Until i feel again
you stare and watch me burn away
Until i feel
anything at all
Is what you're paying for
anything at all
Is what you're paying for
everything i perform
What are you waiting for
everything i perform
What are you waiting for

If I could just see down your throat
the road would surely open up
while I drift around
the tropics of
your mouth
i can fee the eyes
looming all around
climbing up my back
with dreams of being found
i can feel your hands
creep across
creep across my neck
with dreams of getting out
if i could just see right back up
swallowed by a great white sun
while I'm thinking of
the everlasting love
i can fee the eyes
looming all around
climbing up my back
with dreams of being found
i can feel your hands
creep across
creep across my neck
with dreams of getting out
bring a wave and I will drown
everyday
in the arms of tidal waves
end my shame
now you know it's me
hanging on
now you know it's me
still hanging on
every time you open up
i can feel vermillion blood
every time you open up
i can feel vermillion
swallow pride to save yourself
swallow pride for saviors
you do it all for lesser
do it all for lesser
I can feel vermillion blood
every time you open up
swallow pride to save yourself
swallow pride for saviors
do it all for lesser men
do it all for lesser
do it all for lesser men
do it all for lesser

There's a solipsist
Attached to the weary arm of natures wrist
And in the petri dish
We claim a chemical
A chemical imbalance
Will I get my
Will I get my universe
So I can satisfy
So I can satisfy a curse
Will I get my
Will I get my universe
So I can satisfy a curse
And satiate the endless
I'm afraid of what I'll do
With a universe
Or two
Face down in the Nile
He's playing king at the top of the sun dial
In a sapphire cloak and a heavy weighted diamond ring
Could you spare me a universe?
Mine is held with string
Will I get my
Will I get my universe
So I can satisfy
So I can satisfy a curse
Will I get my
Will I get my universe
So I can satisfy a curse
and satiate the endless
I'm afraid of what i'll do
With a universe
Or two
I wanna line all my bones
With another atom bomb
And decorate the house
God has stolen from
With what comes after
What comes after
I wanna line all my bones
With another atom bomb
And decorate the house
With what comes after
What comes after
Will I get my
Will I get my universe
So I can satisfy
So I can satisfy a curse
Will I get my
Will I get my universe
So I can satisfy a curse
And satiate the endless
I'm afraid of what I will do
With a universe
Or two
And decorate the house
With what comes after
What comes after

Gather round my solar system
From your nebula
I’ve got a locust in my ear
I’ve seen the moon inside the sea
Swarming the farallon
Gather round my crumbling mountain
I can see you climbing
All eyes are on my tower
Telling all the swarm which way
Swarming the farallon
Your motivation is still crawling
At my feet (at my feet, at my feet)
And all I see is
Your starving eyes
and desperation
Still haunt me
I can feel the force of you reaching out
Swarming the farallon
Riddled now with blind ambition
I can see you stumble
With ideas above your station
Your hands are full and giving out
Swarming the farallon
Your motivation is still crawling
At my feet (at my feet, at my feet)
And all I see is
Your starving eyes
And desperation
Still haunt me
I can feel the force of you reaching out
All the fruit you recognise
Takes a little sacrifice
There's a fire lit beneath my throne
I don't know where I can go
All the fruit you recognise
Takes a little sacrifice
Circling the only light
I am seen for miles
Do you believe
What I believe
That the well
Will never run
Do you believe
What I believe
That the well
Will never run dry
Do you believe
What I believe
That the well
Will never run
Do you believe
What I believe
That the well
Will never run dry
I can feel you moving in my view then you go
Moving with your jaw and now you're reaching for my medicine
I can feel you moving in my view then you go
Moving with your jaw and now you're reaching for my medicine
I can feel you moving in my view then you go
(And then you go, and then you go)
Moving with your jaw and now you're reaching for my medicine
I can feel you moving in my view then you go
(And then you go, and then you go)
Moving with your jaw and now you're reaching for my medicine
We’re lost in the valley
Looking for motivation
Wandering
Til’ we arrive
At ideas above our stations
Were lost in the valley
Looking for motivation
Wandering
Til’ we arrive
At ideas above our station

I’ll burn
It down
To forget
I’ll burn
All my
Ill gotten gains
I should have
Flown away
Silent as a spring of old
Wouldn't say a thing
If we just did what we're told
Silent as a spring of old
Wouldn't say a
Single word at all
I should've flown away
But now it's too late
Silent as a spring of old
Wouldn't say a thing
If we just did what we're told
Silent as a spring of old
Wouldn't say a
Single word at all
I will die for a single crumb
Keep her sweet with the honey
Now that the rats’ race is finally won
I'm asleep on the podium
I will die for a single crumb
Keep her sweet with the honey
Now that the rats’ race is finally won
I’m asleep on the podium
I will die for nothing at all
Keep me alive for the money
Now that the rats have all finally won
I will stay asleep
Til’ it never happened
I should’ve flown away
Away but now it's too late
I should’ve flown away
Away but now it's too late
I should’ve flown away
Away but now it's too late
Late
Til’ it never happened
Silent as a spring of old
Wouldn't say a thing
If we just did what we're told
Silent as a spring of old
Wouldn't say a
Single word at all
Silent as a spring of old
Bogged down by the repetition
Swamp like and tired of it all
Silent as a spring of old
Bogged down by the repetition
Swamp like and getting tired
Silent as a spring of old
Bogged down by the repetition
Swamp like and tired of it all

How can you desire purity
When you yourself are so unclean
How can you be headless at your age
Can you comprehend what's left to change
Now I see
Now I see the woe
Recognitions deafening I know
Now I see
Now I see the woe
Definitions beckoning us all
I will wane as my body starts to waver
I will wait but my patience won't hold
Limp along
In certainty
Until you feel a fall
Coffers brim with power
Overflow
Treasure your delusions
Gathered on the floor
Dividing all the hung and drawn
House of gold
Now I see
Now I see the woe
Recognitions deafening I know
Now I see
Now I see the woe
Definitions beckoning us all
I will wane as my body starts to waver
I will wait but my patience won't hold
I will wane as my body starts to wither
I will wait but my patience won't hold
We all get a taste of it all
Get up
For death dies not
We all get a taste of it all
Get up
For death dies not
We all get a taste of it all
Get up
For death he will die not
Now you know the woe is me

Trap it in the fence
Dragging what is left
Tail of the fox is so bright
And innocent
All this evolution
Leaves me
For too long
Take my
Tongue away
Before I talk
A thousand times
Contradict myself again
Pouring fire on
Everything you say
Take my speech
Craft a language
I cant repeat
Take my
Tongue away
Before I talk
a thousand times
Over
Leaving me wretched
Evacuate the mind
It doesn't feel natural
But capable of trying
Yeah i got it good
I decorate myself again
Just to attract you
Take my
Tongue away
Before I talk
A thousand times
Contradict myself again
Pouring fire on
Everything you say
Take my speech
Craft a language
I can’t repeat
Take my
Tongue away
Before I talk
A thousand times
Over
Using all my
Whispering
Morse code
Clicks and
The listening
Using all my
Whispering
Morse code
Clicks and
The listening
Using all my
Whispering
Morse code
Clicks and
The listening
Take your hand it's all I need
Leaving myself feeling new
Take your hand it's all I need
Leaving myself feeling new
Take your hand it's all I need
Leaving myself feeling new
Take your hand it's all I need
Leaving myself feeling

I've got empathy
Feeling so it’s still running in my veins
I will age accelerate
Almost every day
And the sympathy
I’m running through a maze
It still feels like a game
I will roam all by myself
Almost every day
I'm caught
On the claw of a single thought
And it's keeping me in
All of the space I realigned
I'm caught
On the claw of a single thought
And it's keeping me in
All of the space I realigned
If I remember
And the memory
Of the young and lost his way
And still wandering
An incendiary
Yeah the young and up in flames
And I watch
I watch
I watch for days
I'm caught
On the claw of a single thought
And it's keeping me in
All of the space I realigned
I'm caught
On the claw of a single thought
And it's keeping me in
All of the space I realigned
If I remember
I am caught
On the claw
On the claw of my simple thoughts
I am caught
On the claw
On the claw of my simple thoughts
I hear the noise coming from their mouths
But the words are too bright for me to focus on
I know what I’m being told is for me , to keep me here
But as soon as it becomes clear
I’ve already forgotten
And I need telling again
But I’m too ashamed to ask
Every day more of me is missing
My shell grows more hollow everyday
The burden on the parts of me left become to great
And I’m shutting down before my time
No living thing lives without a shell
But the shell alone is no living thing
No living thing lives without a shell
But the shell alone is no living thing
Is empathy the only kind of love
Only love
Never worth the labor
Is empathy the only kind of love
Only love
Never worth the labor
Is empathy the only kind of love
Only love
Never worth the labor
I’m caught
On the claw of a single thought
And it keeps me in
All the space I've realigned
I’m caught
On the claw of a single thought
And it's keeping me in
All the space I've realigned
Is empathy the only kind of love
Only love
Never worth the labor
Is empathy the only kind of love
Only love
Never worth the labor
Is empathy the only kind of love
Only love
Never worth the labor
Is empathy the only kind of love
Is empathy the only kind of love
