Flamingos

Go be the finest
Go and achieve all your goals
-
One loss would send it all
Back to square one
-
So don't hold him back
What's a perfect man like him to do?
-
Not a single flaw
Always guarded and never wrong
-
One loss would send it all
Back to square one
-
So don't hold him back
What's a perfect man like him to do?
-
One loss would kill it all
Right back to square one
-
So don't hold him back
What's a perfect man like him to do?
So don't hold him back
You know a man like him could do no wrong
But it's such a long way to fall

Mr Everything

I've entered into
The other side of you
What was once unknown
That sickly mistake
So common to make
And now they're all the same
-
To disperse from the rest
Never worth the second best
-
A vision into
That can see right through
And the joke's on you
This age of the trends
When will it ever end?
Just lead them all down, down, down
-
To disperse from the rest
Never worth the second best
Never worth the second best

Age Of The Trends

Amber Vale

Oh to be a teen
But now I know the feeling
And I know that I don't want it back
-
Blooming late it seems
Watching all the highlights on a broken screen
Move along with your two left feet
-
Taken off of life's running order
If only you had wished a bit harder
-
Never coming clean
Never facing up to all the in-between
As the guilt sets in
-
Living out this dream
Nice to see what you get, but what's in it for me?
Forced along with my two left feet
-
Taken off of life's running order
If only you had wished a bit harder
And the ones that we rely on the most
They'll walk on out when there's nothing left to know

Two Left Feet

Leave out the rough terrain
Move faster
Further into an aimless venture
Narrowly miss a new disaster
Maybe return when it's all over
-
Never too far to reach the horizon
Even as all the daylights dying
No reason left to stay in this place
A memory soon to be erased
-
Runner
Quitter
Deserter

The Runner

You've set your mind to follow words you're told
Don't settle for any less than gold
So stand in line and wait here for the show
You'll be seated in the chosen row
-
Deaf from applause, the spotlight blinds your eyes
Lesson one: Don't act like you're surprised
Out with the id and in with the ego
And teach the world that all you need is gold

Spotlighters

Lead on, I'm out of the frame for now
Don't be like me
Posing a threat no greater than empathy
Brave the outside

Have we lost one of our own?
Packing up, we're heading home

Eye's fixed, the pleasures disolved
One last greeting
Falling below the line
Bow out for the final time

Have we lost one of our own?
Packing up, we're heading home
Cured of anxiousness for a while
The nerves return when you look in my eye

We never lost one of our own
I ask you to teach me but you wont
'Cause all those things
They'll make us all braver
And all those things
They'll make us all braver

Seventeen

Figured I'd make my way out of here
Figured I'd make my way into the clear
And before I take another step
I will reset to forget

A simple lesson's all that's needed
That it's a mistake to remember
And when it feels like enough
I will reset to forget
Reset to forget
I will reset to forget
Reset to forget

So we'll start again
And then start again

Year Zero

You're the best of the worst
That is all of the praise I have
So senseless to tempt this
We never quite had the knack

And it's still going strong
Who could have known it'd last so long?

In this for the long haul now
In this for the long haul now

You're the worst of the best
That was all of the praise they had
So senseless to end this
We'd have no reason left to brag

That it's still going strong
Who could have known it'd last so long?

And it's still going strong
Who would have known it'd last so long?

And it's still going strong
Who knows if it will will last much longer?

Happy To Settle

Care to watch me sinking slowly?
As I'm weighed down
Deeper
Deeper

In with your scene
No room to breath
On my way down with you
Deeper
Deeper
Deeper
