No one said this would be easy An eternity spent forging ties Only to see them crumble away Painlessly, string by string And the tears we shed meant nothing Forget everything you know, Wipe the memory clean, Fill the senses with novelty, Only to start again And the tears we shed meant nothing And the lives we’ve led meant nothing This is the curse of the free mind Always searching for the one thing it cannot have If I could only live in a single space, Never thinking how It could be different in another place, A product of my fantasy And the tears we shed meant nothing And the lives we’ve led meant nothing This is the curse of the free mind Always searching for the one thing it cannot have

Branches 04:36
Off in the distance a song fades away Its broken melody resonates As the skies wash over the earth Words slide off these pages Conjuring up a wild scenery Drifting slowly into the ground A drop was all we’d need to feel alive Remember when you said you were scared? There is nothing left to fear These thoughts are all that you can hear Let the wind grace you Remember how we used to be? Well I’m still caught in the branches Waiting for this storm to pass And for the tide to pour over these clouds Should you ever find the time, I’ll be that glance that you throw back When you feel so alone I’ll be that glance that you throw back When you feel so alone There is nothing left to fear These thoughts are all that you can hear Let the wind grace you Remember how we used to be? I’m still here I’m still here

You were a spark in the dark A mark left deep in the ground As the glass fell right out Of the tips of my worn-out fingers Your colours stirred in the light It’s meaningless, I won’t be found So I’ll down another empty night, Bottle up another useless fight with myself Soon enough your hands are bound Your lips are sealed, the secret tied around Your neck, will stay with you Just this once Just this once And you were just one more flare Another signal gone astray, but I’ll stay Bearing no arms by my side, for this time, This cursed ship might change its course Soon enough your hands are bound Your lips are sealed, the secret tied around Your neck, will stay with you Just this once Just this once

Tightrope 04:30
Bring your head to the wall Pull your teeth and force a smile This ain’t anything that pills could fix Fading red and white To paint upon this canvas A sound is born and is silenced It was once here, can you feel it? Its presence lingers in the air You’re walking down a tightrope But the slack is catching up to you Tear apart what you've made Leave it blank and recompose And cloud your thoughts As you leave another open wound There is something here, Can you feel it? If I could close my eyes Let it come near Don’t think about it, You will just ruin it all You’re walking down a tightrope But the slack is catching up to you We’re on short supply here Lift your head and look around Nothing here has changed. Oh my god, This is the hardest thing You’ve ever had to do

Riverbed 03:46
Not too long ago, it seemed As though our paths were forged Fused together under unequal trends Rowing on at different speeds But always the same stream Do you remember? Leave me in the water, Let me sleep away the time Tucked away under the river bed Let me forget it all. I don’t want to think about the times we had The memories are holding me back How is everyone else doing here Have they made it out to the other side? Are they just as lonely as I am? Or have they found Another soul to share the struggle? Leave me in the water, Let me sleep away the time Tucked away under the river bed Let me forget it all. I don’t want to think about the times we had The memories are holding me back How can I ever know If this channel leads to the sea? And when I arrive, will everybody be there? Or is this really how alone we’ll always feel? Leave me in the water, Let me sleep away the time Tucked away under the river bed Let me forget it all. I don’t want to think about the times we had The memories are holding me back An unseen bend in the tracks Where we all lost one another How will I ever know? Leave me down here in the river
