Side By Side 04:01
I'm seeing everything as something or someone else. My eyes are on the way out and my surroundings are breaking down. Why do i stand here waiting for you to come to life? When you won't even try to find me, to push against the tide. Or pull me under, side by side. I'm hearing everything i can't seem to single out The individual tones the voices crash like a waterfall. But i will stare from afar and i will sharpen my tongue And i will strike and miss but i will not give up. Turn your back on the city, turn your back on the belief.

Barricade 04:18
Well isn't this fucked up, A reflection to the past is the only thing exciting. Does anyone feel stuck? I'll wriggle in the sand though the gravity is frightening. I find it so damn hard to keep an optimistic mind in a pessimistic landscape. I've torn apart my guard because a jester with a bell laughs at every move i make. If you could see me now would you look at me with pity? I'll shelter in my hometown, build a barricade around me. One steps too far, I've got nothing left to lose because I've already lost you. I'll transport myself to superhero civil war: Are you pro or are you anti? And all the book I've read about lonely men on mars rescue missions to the unknown I've never felt so low. I could be captain for a day but my stars and stripes are too small

Watch it all float away, stand back to see it fade. I hope you're taking notes and filing all those papers you've wrote Because I've had it up to here and I've been our vitals clear. Our friendship lines are flat, i find it harder to look back. And i'll always have the time when we can see eye to eye Your intentions formed a crime that i could never forgive. I'll take a flush and gamble on the reasons that you gave to me, the shit you wanted me to believe. I've taken offence too many times. It's something that you're proud of, it's something that you take advantage of.

The Place 03:51
Sometimes you feel in life you'll never leave. The only place in life you've ever been. Stuck in the same routine, it has no end. You fall down, your mind goes numb, you've hit a dead end. I've been walking down this lonely road for so long I can barely see a good end for me. Can you take me down to the place where everything is easy? No worries or complications. Can you take me down to the place where it's all so simple? No worries or complications. Can we go back to when i was young? I didn't have no responsibilities. All i had to worry about is who i was skating with. No work, no monthly bills, i didn't even know what insurance was If i only knew of the shit that was yet to come.

Genting 03:40
I head southbound, i'm on my way To see some friends from yonder days. Step right in, we'll make you feel ecstatic, back it. Stroll in feeling the flashing lights. The wheels are spinning, the cards are dealing from left to right The kryptonite won't hold me back now. You feel lost? Well come right in. When you win you're high when you lose it stings. 21 is your number, son. So save your stake before it's gone. I ain't rolling dice, you sure as hell will get on down tonight. The green from the under-light burns a hole right through me. But i believe my stars are out tonight, If i lose, well i tried. The glares that warn, stare down the thirds like headlights swerve to each person. The clicking from the circle pit is enticing. I seem to be getting it right on every turn. The more i win, the more i learn to forget the lies, The pounds are in my eyes now, stop me now. Don't blame me that you're now broke, You knew the rules before you choked. You take from the riches jaw but you can't take that you've lost it all. WA79, I think we've come out alright. We've left there all on the up, It's something I've never lost. You're all in my veins.

Deeper 04:33
Did you see a light? Promise we tried to find a brighter side, Than fall straight into a decline. And it could not of been easy to leave behind what you need. And across an ocean i see your face in a dream, And i snap back from a heart attack while i sleep. Now nothing is the same in all the familiar ways. Even i have changed from the friend you used to embrace. And it could not of been easy to leave behind what you need. It's a sudden influx, a shift that slowly slides. A depression that will not leave my side. Do you see me falling?
