Friend of Mine

Hear me gently screaming,
I feel it but can't see it,

What are we gonna do?
It's a part of you... well.

I feel it underneath my skin,
I feel it crawling deep beneath,

What are we gonna do?
It's a part of you... well..
What are we gonna do?
It's a part of you... well..

I hear it ticking silently,
I feel it taking over me,

What are we gonna do?
It's a part of you... well.
I will follow you until the mountains move... hey.
What are we gonna do?
It's a part of you... well.
I will follow you until the mountains move... hey.

Let it go,
Does it show?
Can you tell?

What are we gonna do?
It's a part of you... well.
Won't you cut me loose,
It's the noose... hey.
What are we gonna do?
It's a part of you... well.
Won't you cut me loose,
It's the noose... hey.

Let it go,
Does it show?
Can you tell?

What Are We Gonna Do? (Version 1)

I am the walking unseen,
Transparent like the sea,
Delicate ground lies underneath,
Tread carefully silently.

(Oh, heave ho)

Oh my design,
You are the fire.

Walking on the mirror's sky,
The sky above is yours, the below is mine,
You watch me waiting as time passes me on by,
Well for now I remain a ghost to you.

(Oh, heave ho)

Oh my design,
You are the fire.

Well it's ok, I am floating away,
I am leaving this place for good this time,
And it's ok, I am floating away,
I am leaving this place for good tonight.

Dipped my head underneath a wave,
To clear my thoughts for that day,
You disguise what's on your mind, 
My sublime valentine.

(Oh, heave ho)

Oh my design,
You are the fire.

Well it's ok, I am floating away,
I am leaving this place for good this time,
And it's ok, I am floating away,
I am leaving this place for good tonight.

Tonight I feel alright,
But I feel you ghost inside,
Leave me alone,
Leave me alone.

Well it's ok, I am floating away,
I am leaving this place for good this time,
And it's ok, I am floating away,
I am leaving this place for good tonight.

Tonight, tonight, tonight, night, night, night-night.

Floating Away (Version 1)

Taxi is the opening track for what will be Crafting Machines' second EP release :-)

lyrics:

You don't have to be so goddamn mean, 
You don't have to be like that... 
Don't get too close you might finally realise, 
This wasn't worth your time... 

Count to ten, 
Make a friend, 
See it all, 
Come so slow, 
Lovely dear, 
The time is near, 
You don't know, 
When it's time to go. 

Call a taxi, 
Sit on the backseat, 
Cos we have had a few, 
Holding hands, 
Things are moving fast, 
Now it's your turn to make the move. 

Count again, 
Breathing in, 
In a place, 
That we don't know, 
Be sincere, 
Meet me here, 
Cos I don't know, 
Where this will flow. 

Call a taxi, 
Sit on the backseat, 
Cos we can hardly move, 
Holding hands, 
Things are moving fast, 
Now it's your turn to make the move. 

Well, 
Oh well... 
Oh well... 
Just be someone... 

You don't have to be so goddamn mean, 
You don't have to be like that, 
Don't get too close you might finally realise, 
This wasn't worth your time... 

Heya... fear no'morrow, 
Heya... fear no'morrow, 

Don't get too close you might finally realise, 
This wasn't worth your time, 
Don't build your hopes high, these melting snows slide, 
This world cannot rewind... 

Heya... fear no'morrow, 
Heya... fear no'morrow, 
Fear no'morrow.

Delicate ground lies underneath,
Tread carefully silently...

Oh, heave ho,

The sky above is yours, the sky below is mine,
You watch me waiting as time passes me on by,
Well for now I remain a ghost to you.

Oh, heave ho,

Well...

It's okay,
I am floating away,
I am leaving this place for good this time,

And it's okay,
I am floating away,
I am leaving this place for good tonight...

Dipped my head underneath a wave,
To clear my thoughts for that day,
You disguise what's on your mind love, 
My sublime valentine...

Oh, heave ho,

And it's okay,

I am leaving this place for good tonight...

Tonight, tonight, tonight, night, night, night-night...
