Evaporate

You want to be somebody else
Someone who can take you all the way
Straight to the prize
You want to hide where it all melts
Somewhere you can tan away the pain
And I want to find you there
We evaporate the worst parts, worst parts
We imagine that we'd outsmart the heart
We exaggerate the head start
Sweetheart, it's dangerous
I want to move these mountains still
But every time I push they float away
Into the sky
I want to be my best for you
Someone who can make it go away
And never return to view

Render Light

I'm alright, haven't wasted my time
I felt like that tonight
I'm fine, you're mine
Render light and it all becomes clear
Why we're here, it's a lovely sight
Hold tight, I might
And it all is gleaming
Sky high takes a long time
Try, live a lifetime
Is it the pieces that we keep in ourselves
That hold us back from everybody else?
Is it the questions that we ask the shelves
That make us question all the parallels?
Even when it's gleaming

Ring the Bell
03:15
|

|
Material draped, placed aside
Fixed everything together, it was alright
It was a great day when I heard you say
I don't wanna function every night
We were sitting under a waterfall
And I was tripping that we weren't at all
My mind felt like clocking into overtime
And I went to sleep thinking 'bout lights
Every day through disarray
You're letting me say "ring the bell"
We travel along through right and wrong
You're letting me say "ring the bell" all night
Now that I can see you're running from a fear
I'll do my best to be the best that I can be
We're choosing where to be but then rolling over here
I don't wanna roll around for the rest of my life

Cargo
03:59
|
|||
|
Launched into the sky, no lesson learned
Another point of no return
It may be quick this time around
Increasing dread, still on the ground
This isn't how I've always felt
I used to be fine in my seatbelt
Maybe I broke some time ago
Maybe I'd feel at home with the cargo

No Colours

I wanted you and you alone
I didn't need another impressionist
I didn't want some other home
It feels like being skinned to the bone
You were never less than affectionate
And then you went and honeycombed
This is how we do things now
This is how we try to relieve the pressure on our minds
This is how we do things now
This is how we try to relieve the pressure of our lives
You can choose what you wanna say
That's okay, 'cause I don't expect much anyway
No colours
(And that's when my heart starts pumpin', my heart starts pumpin' the red stuff)
No colours
(And that's when my brain starts shuttin', my brain starts shuttin' down)
No colours
(And that's when the paths start pavin', the paths start pavin' their own way)
No colours
(And that's when my watch starts makin', my watch starts makin' a sound)
No colours
(And all of the life starts springin', the life starts springin' out for us)
No colours
(And all of the birds keep rallyin', birds keep rallyin' around)
No colours
(And that's when time starts movin', time starts movin' dependently)
No colours
(And we react to satellite, act to satellite sounds)

The Big Reveal
04:06
|
|||
|
Face backin' away into the clouds
You tried your best to see
But you could not look around
You can't believe what's on the ground
Every single thing that you could not live without
Sometimes the feeling's all around
Try and pin it down
But it's in the open sounds
Even though I know what you've found
I can't help you there
'Cause it's only you allowed
And now the time is breaking
We're all just waiting for the big reveal
And now your bones are quaking
But I know what you want it to be

GMT
05:23
|
|||
|
We ride from sunset 'til five in our rental life
What a glorious sight to have seen the icy green of the fields in a warm machine
A light-headed night with the coolest of cool allies
Three drinks away from crime
Four drinks away from GMT, Greenwich Mean Time
Five drinks away from home
Christmas Eve Syndrome
The more you know

I spent a long few months just waiting for a leaf to turn over
I spent a long few months just watching other people succeed
Is it so hard to be some who's always appealing?
Is it so hard to be someone who knows just what they need?
I agree with everything you say
I spent a long few months just waiting for the world to be over
I spent a long few months just hoping that my mind wouldn't break
Is it so hard to be someone who's wise and stable?
Is it so hard to be someone who's got some legs to shake?
I'll break everything in the way
I've spent the last few months just putting the pieces back together
I've spent the last few months just pushing past the replica's voice
It's not so hard to be someone who's washing themselves clean
It's not so hard to be someone who's reaching for calmer plains
Feel no pain
