Empty 04:10
Everyday of every week I'd best describe as the colour bleak You know it feels like a carousel that you can't get off Sometimes you feel you're close to the end At least that's what you tell your friends But how long you've been on the ride doesn't tell you when it stops There's nothing better to do so I'll sit here with you There's really nothing better to do so I'll sit here with you Hey where did you go You know i can be slow How far out did you notice my complacency It's so easy in hindsight But I've grown it out of spite At least that's what I know I've convinced myself Seek out curiosity and reap what you sew Deny how sweet it can be to know what I know There's nothing better to do so I'll sit here with you There's really nothing better to do so I'll sit here with you

Insane 04:33
What makes sense common Do you vote each day Is it the whim of Horus Or graveyard cabaret A blind spot in yourself That no mirror shows A wasted lot to deal with Find what makes you grow The same of the same Who thinks of it Bane of my bane Consider it Moonstruck and mangled What great hell I was in Haunted not lost To an unrequited cell I could be blind too it But I see it everyday Tastes like gravy doesn't it The facade is good enough For the world today One extreme to another Becoming each other In a desperate haze The fear of fear will disappear Within the gape of jane I hoped I could look away (and)It drives me insane I could be blind too it But I see it everyday Tastes like gravy doesn't it The facade is good enough (x2)

Sometimes 04:25
You say one thing, I don't know if it's right You say another thing, I queery your insight You're act is about to begin, but if it's true I only ask of you Tell me your favorite lies Show me how they're synthesised Tell me your favorite lies Then tell why, you don't use them You take one step, where you'll turn I cannot say You take another now somehow, heading back this way The camera's are on don't you know, but if it's true I only ask of you Tell me your favorite lies Show me how they're synthesised Tell me your favorite lies Then tell why, you don't use them

Woke up Monday can't get out of bed I worked on Sunday, it fucked my head I get up early but never wake Seen as nothing, but everythings at stake Just because the trains run on time Doesn't mean things are fine Dead pan looks in constructed garbs A blank clairvoyance of the now A glimpse of hope though as fantasy No dates before or after, Expressing nothing Just because the trains run on time Doesn't mean things are fine
