Transbay Tunnel
01:34
|

I'm gonna find find the station
I'm gonna find my way home
I'm gonna find my way out of here to roam
Don't know where I need to be
Don't know what I want to see
I'm gonna find find my way home
I'm stuck down in this tunnel
I'm buried under the bay
I'm gonna find find a nice day
Feel I've lost my invitation
To what I don't know
I'm gonna find my way out of here to roam
Gonna try my hand at levitation
Gonna fly up to the sun
I''m gonna find find my way home
It's not far from the station
Where I know I will arrive
I have traveled under the water home

Always In The Know
01:32
|
|||
Do I need words to tell you how I'm feeling?
And I need a walk
Make sure my legs can move
And then we can say we're in control
Always in the know
Knowing where I'm going even though I don't
Do I need thoughts to tell me what I'm saying?
I need to ask myself
What I should be seeing
And then I can I'm in control
Always in the know
Always in the know

Contradictions
01:17
|
|||
Morning jam a cup of tea
Nowhere else I'd want to be
Napkins and kitcheonettes
All the things we've thrown away floating in the ocean
Contradictions every day
You say why and I say it's okay
Evening time
Winter comes
Now the heat has only just begun
Contradictions every day
You say why and I say it's okay

On Borrowed Time
02:24
|
|||
Reach the edge on borrowed time
Bound to see over the wall
I'm glad to see I won't fall
I don't want to hit the ground
I won't be the one to fall down
Reaching to find the top of it all
This is not the time
And I am not the next in line to fall
I've climbed so far not to reach the edge
On borrowed time

Time Is Not Linear
01:21
|
|||
Time is not linear it circles around
I would tell you where it ends but it never will
It seems it never will as it circles around
The end cannot be found
Time is not linear
Floats all around
I would tell you where it ends but it can't be found
Not in this universe
Maybe in the other one
Time is not linear it goes round and round and round
I'm trying to hear what it's telling me
It's not making a sound

My Own Advice
01:37
|
|||
Peering round the bend
Stretch my neck out
Trying to see what it's all about
And then I find something strange
I can't look away
And then I look in the wrong place twice
I find myself not taking my own advice
It turned out that was the right thing to do
I didn't know what I was coming up to
I didn't take my own advice

Like Lemmings
01:47
|
|||
I find not running away
And then I wonder why I'm hiding away
Like lemmings to the flame
Who's to blame?
There must be someone
It will always be the same
And would I feel this way if I knew who to blame?
Like lemmings to the flame
It seems we are
Who's to blame?

Do What I Want
01:39
|
|||
I do what I want when I'm told
And then I just do what I want
I tell myself that all the time
I do what I want till I hit the ground
It helps me to find
The rules that make no sense to me
I want this
We've got it
Let's make this day
I do what I want when I'm told
And then I just do what I want
I say that all the time

To The Other Side
02:07
|
|||
I know there's a place far away
I know there's a side
It's the other side
Imagine what I found
When I left my thoughts inside
I want to go for a ride
To the other side
Intuition is not enough
Imagine what I found
When I left my thoughts inside
I want to go for a ride
To the other side

Got It Wrong
02:04
|
|||
I thought I would be the architect of my discontent
This time
I thought I had it figured out I was wrong all wrong
Got it wrong got it wrong
When I told that lie
Got it wrong got it wrong
Now you said goodbye to me
Got it wrong got it wrong
You don't need me anymore
Got it wrong got it wrong
Here's the door
One more time I lost my inner voices talking sense
Now it makes no sense to me
It doesn't work
With signals crossed
I'm not my boss
I was wrong all wrong
Got it wrong got it wrong
When I told that lie
Got it wrong got it wrong
Now you said goodbye to me
Got it wrong got it wrong
You don't need me anymore
Got it wrong got it wrong
Here's the door
Got it wrong got it wrong
Got it wrong got it wrong

My Reflection
01:38
|
|||
I thought I found a way to get to my reflection
I thought I found a way to see my true self
This is not how I thought that it would end up
This is not what I expected at all
Three shadows lurking backwards standing outside
Three angles I just don't understand
I thought I found a way to get to my reflection
I thought I found a way to see my true self
This is not how I thought that it would end up
This is not what I expected at all
Why won't you tell me what you see?
Why won't you tell me what you see?

If I Had Known
01:18
|
|||
If I had known what I know now
I wouldn't have gone where I went
I wouldn't have seen what I saw
I don't believe anything anymore
I wouldn't know what I know
I wouldn't go there ever again
If I had known what I know now
If I had known
If I had known

Checking The Shadows
02:02
|
|||
I wonder what I think
As I'm wandering around
I'm looking sideways not making a sound
I might look at you
Might look away
I want talk out loud so you won't hear what I'm saying
I'm looking backwards
I am checking the shadows
You'd do it too I know
Even when you think the fear is gone
It lingers on
I found somewhere to check my frozen self
And then I wonder where it has gone
I'm looking backwards
I am checking the shadows
You'd do it too I know
Even when you think the fear is gone
It lingers on
I'm looking backwards
Checking the shadows
I'm looking backwards
Checking the shadows

State Of The Nation
02:40
|
|||
I'm wondering where could you be
I'm falling on myself
You've had it rough
You don't want that anymore
I'm wondering myself
I was thinking just the other day
I always had a way to invite myself
That's the state of the nation
It won't be my downfall
That's the state of the nation
When I think about it long enough
There's always something lurking underneath
If I had it all figured out
There'd be nothing left to believe
That's the state of the nation
It won't be my downfall
That's the state of the nation
I'm wondering where could you be
I'm falling on myself
You've had it rough
You don't want that anymore
I'm wondering myself

In My Time
01:40
|
|||
In my time I think of you
On my mind you are
In my time I know what to do
Think of things
I think of you
You slip into my consciousness
You reach into my mind
I try to think of words I can't find
In my time you are
In my time you are

With All Due Respect
02:21
|
|||
I'm thinking more often talking
I know I can't agree with everyone
With all due respect I'm wrong
With all due respect I'm done
Not yet
It might be right this time you never know
With all due respect I'm wrong
With all due respect I'm done
With all due respect I might be right but not this time
With all due respect I'm wrong

Don't Trip On My Shoes
01:29
|
|||
Don't trip on my shoes
When they're in the way
Don't trip on my shoes
When you trip on my shoes
Don't fall on the floor
And then trip some more
Don't trip on my shoes
When they're in the way
I hope you don't fall in any way
The boats are sailing across the floor
Don't trip on my shoes
Even though they're in the way
Don't trip on my shoes

Time To Go
01:18
|
|||
If I told you it's time to go
You would wonder what took me so long
I don't know
It's time to go
You told me you're glad I had some thoughts of the same to tell you
It's time for us to go
It's time to go
And now I wonder what took me so long
It's not wrong to want to feel we belong
