Tree 05:52
Clear through the air above the trees Looking down between the leaves See the dreams of others' paths See the paths of others' dreams Take a piece along with you And reveal a hidden view See the dreams of your path See the paths of your dreams From skies above, so it begins So we descend Root to branch to tip They reach and guide your trip The tree holds life On the arms of choice The life roads all ajoin The tree holds life Root to branch to tip They reach and offer grip The tree holds life On the arms of choice The life roads all ajoin So in you fly Those inside, you'll arrive And they'll fly, yes they'll fly As the bird, seen and heard Flutters in without his words Relax now Let your song, be the warmth To calm the wings of their flight Let your song carry on 'Til the tree is holding life again

RoboCock 05:24
I am the robot, with two passions But only one arm And those two passions My cat and my garden I cannot turn my back on either Either desire, desire fuels my garden The garden fuels my cat My cat hates me so But I love him dearly oh The vegetables that he consumes They are ethical I must hold my cat Take his gaze or he'll run away How can I concentrate? Make no mistakes Rake me the garden cries Weeds surround my vegetables A threat to their lives Rake me the garden cries I cannot rake you well Without my eyes I am the robot, with two passions But only one arm And those two passions My cat and my garden I cannot turn my back on either Either desire Cos I might lose my soul cat And we cannot have that My cat hates me so But I love him dearly oh The vegetables that he consumes They are ethical I must hold my cat Take his gaze or he'll run away How can I concentrate? Make no mistakes Rake me the garden cries Weeds surround my vegetables A threat to their lives Rake me the garden cries I cannot rake you well Without my eyes Rake me, rake me Rake me, it cries Rake me the garden cries Weeds surround my vegetables A threat to their lives Rake me the garden cries I cannot rake you well Without my eyes Or a second arm Or a second arm Or a second arm

I crawled through another season Past the pattern detection station Appreciating the clouds on my way To a place where the holy men stay I watched the distant horizon bend Phlegmatic purple painted the sky Drifting down the memory lane Perfectly balanced, perfectly sane Oh with my fist in the air I'm shouting into the ground I can hear you I can feel you Calling to me Oh on this day of redemption All is built to last On the side line All is mine Running water kept me grounded Primal mantras kept me safe I wandered in those timeless places As the rocks and trees they All grew faces I rested in a glistening garden Amongst the dancing water pillars Beneath that lichen covered gate Lies the path that we must take Oh with my fist in the air I'm shouting into the ground I can hear you I can feel you Calling to me Oh on this day of redemption All is built to last On the side line All is mine

Prodigal Sun 05:45
Flee away from yellow walls The padded rooms, the corridors Hide beneath the oak trees roots Where gnomes recite the age old truths Rise above the concrete blocks And wave down to the shepherd flocks Yearning for the open space Whilst pulled down by the same old face Will sickness make free all those who can see What you carved on the wall with your key Will a goblet of god's wine come for free To a pilgrim who's able to let it be Prodigal sun and a brand new day Can't see why this is uncalled for What's there to witness, what's left to say Can't seem to draw from the old core Finger paint on the glass, hey it's you Wanna go out for walkies, no can do Need someone to hold the leash, yeah it's true To tell you when to pee, to guide you through Reach in mind steal the truth Crack the veil as you work it loose Sift through time, sift through you Lies and mimes seperate from what is true True to me, true to you Never sure what to follow through What I knew had no proof Why so hard to instate a truce You fight on, I lie in wait All in place to initiate Plans to end my suffering At your hands Mental locks, looping thoughts melt away Warm electric buzzing makes you sway The static background noise is no more grey Put on your top notch grin, it's time to play Prodigal sun and a brand new day Can't see why this is uncalled for What's there to witness, what's left to say Can't seem to draw from the old core Prodigal sun and a brand new day Can't see why this is uncalled for What's there to witness, what's left to say Can't seem to draw from the old core

Emus 04:44
Get a load of our sausage meat The emus brought about the heat Our eggs are biggest, hard to beat The ostriches saw a challenge to meet yeah Historically lands apart Introduced by a farmer's tart The fight began with a war of words And slagging off each other's birds A motivational catchphrase Be the least that you can be tonight All emotional emus They gather in for a fight See the light and roll with the blast wave De-clench and lay down to die With the right explosives Even emus might fly If you haven't felt our feathers you should The ostriches misunderstood Our feathers may suck but our oil is good The emus didn't see why they would no Then they both agreed They couldn't live Without having everything The fight outgrew a war of words Now they're killing off each other's herds A motivational catchphrase Be the least that you can be tonight All emotional emus They gather in for a fight See the light and roll with the blast wave De-clench and lay down to die With the right explosives Even emus might fly Left, right, left, right, left right Quick march Thermoregulate Are we acting logically? Asked the emus peacefully You wouldn't know logic If it hit you in the beak The ostriches wouldn't let it be So they fought here to the last Flying emus every blast The war of words and lives had been With no emus left to win yeah A motivational catchphrase Be the least that you can be tonight All emotional emus They gather in for a fight See the light and roll with the blast wave De-clench and lay down to die With the right explosives Even emus might fly

Riddles 05:45
When he arrived all the children began to speak in riddles And in his eyes there lingered A hint of rust red lust With a steady hand He gathered from the leaves The autumn frost And made the whole land Wonder and dream of things Long lost Tacit thoughts, dusty scenery Rearranging words to invoke thee Tacit thoughts, dusty scenery Rearranging words Across the land he trod In a way that men do not And in his wake there followed A scent of lucid dreams And then again he passed on With apparent ease With a knowing smile And his whole being Resonating with peace Tacit thoughts, dusty scenery Rearranging words to invoke thee Tacit thoughts, dusty scenery Rearranging words

If they'll lay waste To our sceptered isle We'll hunt them down No need for trial I'm told we've got the upper hand As we take wing towards their land My war is just, I know the truth I'm stepping out Of my worthless youth One of the men I've got their trust We'll sail through this God's here with us The grounded beams Of their search lights They've no idea we're here tonight Around me I see Tension start to grow Is there something Else that I should know? We're here for pride, our battle's won All together, all together We'll give our lives, we'll fight as one All together, all together There's no chance for the other side All together, all together We're gonna take them down tonight Now they see And we can't flee The lights are blinding They're as bright as the sun Now I see They lied to me Fly into hell As the skies are ripped undone A pouncing strike hits us behind With piercing shot our engines grind The pilot's lost in dazzling light We're helpless to return the fight The other men their souls have flown Last one down, I'm on my own Now I know that lies were told All together, all together I feel as if my soul was sold All together, all together And I was just a child last night All together, all together They brought me here so I could die We've lost our pride, we haven't won All together, all together We gave our lives, we fought as one All together, all together We're passing to the other side All together, all together We die away from home tonight

It's time you're loaded The transfer is almost completed Patience, this time you're needed Rich means to care and to share No doubt, you'll find a rhythm You'll see that we gave you a start Hold out, just momentarily The climax is imminent, just wait and see Long time coming Long time coming You've waited , you've lasted You're free soon, we release you It's been a long time, a long time A long time coming yeah Thank you my friends For lending an ear Though I will not blame you If you disappear now We realise that what you prize It ain't money, you just need your honey And maybe you need a tune or two To pull you through until the next time Next time it comes hard There's one call in life That's greater than music We'd like to suggest That it's now time to choose it You are rich with patience Now your bed awaits you
