Gold Soundz
So drunk in the August sun and you're the kind of girl I like/
Because you're empty and I'm empty/
And you can never quarantine the past |

Here I Dreamt I Was an Architect
And I am nothing of a builder/
But here I dreamt I was an architect/
And I built this balustrade/
To keep you home, to keep you safe/
From the outside world/
But the angles and the corners/
Even though my work is unparalleled/
They never seemed to meet/
This structure fell about our feet/
And we were free to go |

Untitled 02
If there's any justice in heaven/
Then God won't let me in/
He'll lock the gates and take my weekend pass away/
With a sympathetic wave they'll see me off/
Reserve my golden crown while I am cursed to walk the earth for a millenia,/
I know I deserve worse but it terrifies me and I can't take it anymore... |

Transatlanticism
Those people were overjoyed; they took to their boats./
I thought it less like a lake and more like a moat./
The rhythm of my footsteps crossing flatlands to your door have been silenced forever more/
The distance is quite simply much too far for me to row/
It seems farther than ever before |
| 5 | Faith No More
Land of Sunshine
Now for the next question/
Does emotional music have quite an effect on you?/
Do you feel sometimes that age is against you? |

Fitter Happier
favors for favors,/
fond but not in love,/
charity standing orders, |

The Deadly Rhythm
Is it our duty to die for governments & for gods?
Is it our privilege to slave for market & for industry?
Is it our right to follow laws, set to scare and to oppress?
Is it a gift to stay in line and will it take away the blame? |
| 8 | Them Crooked Vultures
Mind Eraser No Chaser
Gimme the reason why the mind's a terrible thing to waste/
Understanding is cruel the monkey said as it launched to space/
Know that i'm gonna be your dangerous side effect/
Ignorance is bliss until they take your bliss away |
