Constants 05:11
The trees are bustling once again The words are drifting friend to friend Oh where will they go from here? Where will they go? We were children in the yard With nothing written in our cards But wings; they grow and spread like fire Don't you see them grow? There you are, you're right on time Flesh and bone I can call mine Cos tears and stories intertwine You're my constant in the dark Symmetries remain unstuck Do you remember how we got here All those years ago? When the day goes black And the moon's in my lungs And the terrors, oh they start That's when you play your part So I'll count to five as I'll count on you If you asked me where we would be today Before we grew old and our hairs turned gray I would take your hand and hold it tight And we'll wait and see who smiles And welcome home, you're right on time Flesh and bone I can call mine Cos tears and stories intertwine

Grow a wicked bone, son. Grow a wicked bone A little less concern; I'll Leave it for my own The world is getting brighter The lungs getting lighter So catch me if you can, hun. Catch me if you can Those marathons inside your head have made a better man I'll disappear like lightning The smoke will be blinding Good luck to you finding me now I'll throw the curtains down And have a look around from mountaintops And dance on sweeter grounds Since I could never leave no footprints with you A gentle blow and there's fog on the glass Write my name it's appearing at last Icy fingers fresh from the frost Reacquaint with the things I have lost I'll shoot the padlocks down And pitter-patter goes the glorious sound They'll dance by your feet now May they always leave those craters with you
3.
Holding hands on silver beaches She's your mesmerizing creature Keeping up the hopeful fiction Firewood for your illusion Cos she’s sitting in the other room. Will she ever hear you? Too long or too soon? You twist and turn and fascinate but there's no ovation For you, for you. For you, acrobatic you. Powdering your blistered fingers Hold on to the creases of her She's the wings that keep you flying The light in your abysmal trying But she's playing in the other room. Will she ever hear you? As you repeat your tunes? You twist and turn and fascinate but there's no ovation For you, for you. For you, acrobatic you. Acrobats and lion tamers Hearts of steel and faith like towers (One more encore) Is she waiting in the other room? Will she ever find you? Is your moment coming soon? You twist and turn and fascinate and is there salvation For you, for you? For you, for you?
4.
Run, oh run. It's just a little more You know they won't catch you if you fall The colours congeal and make momentum sway But will you reach the end? Or is it just another day? Look over there, the carnivores pursuit Dressed in crooked smiles and predatory suits "Have a little swim, the water's nice and warm" But don’t dip your toes, cos only horrors come They say slow and steady wins the race But we don't live forever anyway It's not a little fantasy that I wildly chase They're the dreams that they've buried all away Why am I on the starting line? Misplaced faith; a candidate assigned Don't stand still. Don't let the footprints dry This can't be the way I'm gonna die They say slow and steady wins the race But we don't live forever anyway There is no more time left for all the little things And the dreams that they've buried all away You won't have my blood You won't have this blood today Even if just a while My heart is gonna stay

Sanctuary 05:30
When the day is bright (fall in my arms) When the grown-ups fight (fall in my arms) When the shadows bite (fall in my arms) When the nightmares strike (fall in my arms) When the skies ignite (fall in my arms) When in the high tides (fall in my arms) It will be alright (fall in my arms) Just shut those eyes (fall in my arms) It will be alright (fall in my arms) Just shut those eyes… It will be alright Just shut those eyes
