Compost 03:39
Let your self let go of your grip if it means that someone gets theirs Just don't forget what it felt like to not hold on with all your might So light, weightless, unwind, notice what's always been there to be found Mind gets hectic, direction neglected, beauty will come in from the sides of your mind We know What we're made of Compost From some point in time There's hope Buried in the ground We'll be fine Find the right kind head space to occupy, don't matter, really, how you arrived A million steps to take on all sides that lead you to the next flash of your life A sudden memory that you've been here before, what was that? Shake it off, time slips through the cracks Every moment that your heart skips out of line makes a mark, stays with you forever

We're not so different you and me From all of our technology Digital fingerprint scan Is the new form of shaking hands But its alright We're keeping up with the times And it's okay What good are thoughts anyway? The world we've come to understand That we never could have planned It's got me stuck Enough's enough Living in constant demand

Human Things 04:26
Getting further from my memories Developing a funny style Of understanding time moves with me Like standing next to a sundial Studying Human beings Studying Human things Been around the country listening To the highway drone with every mile Fading out by existing Feeling stronger all the while Trying to give up indifference Closing up the distance

A billion thumbs tap the glass of a never ending void So much I don't care to know get shoved directly down my throat Sleeping through the changes that are fucking up our world But we're dreaming of our perfect self, a million friends but where's the party? Wake up on the ground Face up freaking out You can send a message if you make it loud No more looking down If you can make some sense of out the slice of life you're living Speak your truth by living it, too many of us talking shit, starting to believe in it Simple man, yeah what do I know? Plant your seeds and watch them grow We're all connected, everything, I've met the Earth I feel it breathing I just wanna make sound, I just wanna make noise

Did I miss something or has there been a shift in atmosphere? 'Cause I could have sworn I knew exactly what I was doing here If I could sample everything my choice would be so clear Got a pinhole projector when I asked for a full length mirror Dragging my feet far behind me I have got no sense of urgency What a waste time's turned out to be I say this now but I guess we'll see If it sounds like I'm complaining I guess that's because I am But I'm grateful for the chance to do things just because I can There's meaning in the execution of the day to day Frustrating being asked what's next 'cause I got nothing good to say If forever's just a long time Then never's just a state of mind And the weight of the world's always shifting to one side If you think you're getting nowhere I could give you a ride 'Cause I can be a mess and still have a good time
7.
You Are Here 02:53
Think I'm running out of time Even though the day is long How you doing? I'm fine. Break the silence with a song Why you seem so far away? Can't hear anything you're saying I make you repeat everything Just doesn't resonate the same Waiting, waiting Check my feelings Hoping answers Happen to me If I could be anything I'd be a piece of everything Being one dimensional Is a myth we keep perpetuating Been waking up earlier Trying to watch the times change Staring down the same roads Hours that I've thrown away Vivid pictures in my mind Of places I will never find Fleeting moments I create Weakening my mental state
8.
Hear Me This 03:36
Hear me this The whole friends bit Is wearing thin and it just so happens Those eyes that did me in are what gave you away We can't hide anymore 'Cause we've shown too much If we held it all inside anymore I think I'd go nuts Please don't make me beg I can explain The difference between then an now is plain And please don't make me go back to my own way 'Cause I can't trust myself to find a better time than now To make this happen Hear me this Hear me this
9.
It seems to me that if you could help it, you wouldn't make such a big deal Outta everything you don't lift a finger to make change, pretend you're helping Acknowledged is your contribution but at this time We're not accepting shiny bright lies Rejected is your content meant to trap the minds Of those who can't see through it Can we agree that there's too much talking to think straight about what sounds real? We need a little space so that we can filter out sounds, 'cause not all are welcome You can't fool me I'm not buying What you're selling What I need I find it What I need I find it
