"Ellee Macphee"

Jealous perfect sounds hibernating in the Sun
Can I get another round of girls acting glum?
Intervention, immersive, the clashing of android eyes
A ticket to the real world or passing diversionary smile?

Ellee, Ellee Macphee
Credence cracks a lover’s nation
Free us, fire us from sensation

Magnified in the crowd a symbol of offence
Pouring plastic hearts spending money for their part
Of rented intrusion no doctor can cure
The diffusion of fifteen hypocrits at work today

Ellee, Ellee Macphee
Credence cracks a lover’s nation
Free us, fire us from sensation

Jade, trade, tradgedy, who’s Ellee Macphee
Screaming can they have another mention
Breed us, bribe us to temptation

Ellee, Ellee Macphee
Credence cracks a lover’s nation
Free us, fire us from sensation

Jade, trade, tradgedy, who’s Ellee Macphee
Screaming can they have another mention
Breed us, bribe us to temptation

"Limbo's Party"

Send for delays designed by the weak
Crash Heaven’s party coloured with goodness and treats
Our backs to the rebel rights of the fools
Reflect on Sunday
Centuries passed, punished in minutes

What the fuck were we doing singing this way
We could have sat upon our losses and reached another way

Woven in time is a process we’re told to save
We turned our backs for a second
Then came the whistles
Then they blew their whistles

Send for delays designed by the freaks
Crash Limbo’s party cursed with the calm of defeat
Our backs to the rebel rights of the cool
Reflect on Monday
A day’s only passed, punished in seconds

What the fuck were we doing singing this way
We could have sat upon our losses and reached another way

Woven in time is a process we’re told to save
We turned our backs for a second
Then came the whistles
Then they blew their whistles

"Scenarios"

I stood on the tracks to play, with a vision I found hard to hate
I stood on the tracks to chase all remaining hope
A fool who thought his face was just a card board cut out shape
Locked up in an unforgiving maze
A million miles from home

Contemplate all the scenarios
Create a message and then sign below
Re-send it to those in control
And then hope you’re not alone

Hang onto a sunny day
Missions, mice, cast shades so pale
Hang onto a sunny day
Despair at the world wearing thin
Hang onto a sunny day
Visions, space, cast vapour trails
Hang onto a sunny day
They’re hidden from this town

My blues are part of my own suffering plans
Counteract the lines on your hands
Join all the dots to make the world go around
Maybe i’ll catch the last train home
Wake up from nocternal fear, the same facts painted on a different sphere
Confide in a closed story
And just hope that you find someone

Hang onto a sunny day
Missions, mice, cast shades so pale
Hang onto a sunny day
Despair at the world wearing thin
Hang onto a sunny day
Visions, space, cast vapour trails
Hang onto a sunny day
They’re hidden from this town

Hang onto a sunny day
Missions, mice, cast shades so pale
Hang onto a sunny day
Despair at the world wearing thin
Hang onto a sunny day
Visions, space, cast vapour trails
Hang onto a sunny day
They're hidden from this town

"Colour Blind"

Don’t cry, you’re the dieing epitomy
A science of synergies, hope hides
Don’t cry, heal others honest skin
Hold crimes and a consequence
In the vaguest heights

Trying to control
All things unreasonable
All things commitable
All things lead to the fight

Home hype, give us a warning sign
An appliance of what may bes
Colour blind, colour blind

Cold hands, reach out to the picturesque
Crying and wonderful
In the vaguest of lights

Home hype, give us an end to find
Accomplish the what the will bes
Colour blind, colour blind

"Stand the Other Way"

Take a closing breath
Between your heart and head
You’re fine
You’re fine
Return retiring sounds
(They’re weak and regress)
Stir up another day
A state of fixated shame

Stand the other way
Stand the other way
Stand the other way
Stand the other way
Stand the other way
Stand the other way

Reach out and redefine our future
Recharge, discharge a cotton face
Unerve a start unscathed

You’re fine
You’re fine

Stand the other way
