Lyrics:
Let's see what we can do
with only an afternoon
Let's see what is made from these stars

Let's push eachother
to always do better
even though it sometimes can be hard

Breathe out,
let the whole world sink and spin around you and
don't fret,
just allow yourself to be

Breathe in,
feel all your hopes rushing through you and
don't wait,
in accepting their call

Let go
and become the person you were always
meant to be,
you don't need anything else at all

Lyrics:
Eroding into the sea, our deserted island it will soon reclaim
no coordinates, no heading, no given name
Yesterday a ship passed by, we ran and waved to it from the shore
We watched as it sailed by, just like before
Our eyes stung as we stared intently to the sun
Holding a prism up, we're hypnotized by all the things we beheld
Can you feel? Can you feel that hybrid rainbow?
Even though it's not our day, we will wait till tomorrow and keep looking toward the horizon
Our fallen aircraft, battered and in disarray
with some time, if we try, will fly some day
The dazzling colors are beyond our imagination
we will protect it when it attracts the birds, we will make it our own
Can you feel? Can you feel that hybrid rainbow?
Surely this can't be the end
we will repair our broken wings and rise again
Can you feel? Can you feel that hybrid rainbow?
I believe that we haven't seen the end
I can feel, I can feel that hybrid rainbow
even though it's not our day we will wait till tomorrow and keep looking towards the horizon

Lyrics: 
How much weirdness does it take to count this a mistake 
Shrinking from blank stares 

Cease and no one will get hurt communicating curt 
So much for pleasance 

Which of us is really in charge, you're thrown off by my large 
imposing corpse 

It is such a tragedy that too much mystery 
will scare anyone 

(Chorus) 
Memories fade while digging graves, 
collapses are blamed on me, crumbling like 
my humanity in your eyes 

Messages appear as static to your ears 
eclipsing the broadcast, obscuring 
our shared past once and for all 

I coo softly from the brush, their voices in a hush 
vibrations, still air 

Men with people to impress even if it leaves a mess 
promotions, mouths to feed 

Pointed a red light at my eyes, I fear for my life 
I'm frail for my size 

A flash and I fall to my side, reduced to a lie 
Link missing once again 

(Chorus) 
This whole assault, it's all my fault

The G-Men Hunt The Mothman

WORKING ON ALL OF THIS WAS A LOT OF FUN PLEASE WATCH THE MUSIC VIDEO I HATE BEING MESSY AND I STEPPED PRETTY FAR OUT OF MY COMFORT ZONE TO DO THIS SO I HOPE IT TURNED INTO SOMETHING MEANINGFUL THANK YOU SO MUCH TO EVERYONE WHO HELPED!!
lyrics
I just sat on my new glasses , the only thing that made me feel cute 
truth on the TV, the only thing that makes em hit mute 
burning my hands to try to get the germs off 
too much cooking will start to make your noodle soft 
swallowing feelings like bean and cheese burrito, 
but puke em back up alive just like Steve-o 
I lift my feet over railroad tracks like I saw Chris's 
though I'm not superstitious 

I walk through life with a needle in my chest 
hiding so close to my breast 
irreverent 
I know I'm different 
here no one is making me explain 
always meeting with disdain 
It's not a sin to be 
comfortable in my own skin 

Leaning ladders to wires just to hang with the flock 
because becoming grounded always comes with a shock 
I quit because I stopped caring about singing in key 
rapping was the last thing I could think of to embarrass me 
don't know what I wanna do or what I even like 
don't know who Johnny Depp or inspiration will strike 
you can't control me or where a puppy piddles 
but to others that means so little 

I walk through life with a needle in my chest 
hiding so close to my breast 
irreverent 
I know I'm different 
here no one is making me explain 
always meeting with disdain 
It's not a sin to be 
comfortable in my own 
skin is only five of our senses deep 
even matters when we sleep 
it's all we see 
I know, it scares me 
am I even worthy of next steps 
do I care about my rep 
but you always win when you're 
comforted by your own skin

Lyrics:
Struggling under the weight of the winter
Battling wonder, we're in bedlam with sinners
Wonder my brother we're loving out lovers and
Nothing discovered covers hunting another and smothers it
Find us under it, scattered bits asunder
Hundreds of us wondering, wondering, wondering "what is this?"
"Where is there?" Granny Mary told me "Take it there"
"To the place called there when the weight of a care is breaking your chair for the sake of itself"
So for the sake of it I'll work and think and save a bit
I'll see you in the Paris of the south when my shuck's lit.

Cyclops Rock, that's rock without the depth perception
Welcome to the farm, this is life without the cell reception
And we don't even want direction
Every step to better cut the causes off perfection
At the center of the future and the past to suture up a gash
Stand back, come first, don't clash, self-
Pity is an infinite cigarette, a nicotine drip feed
But I've never been known to quit anything.

Stuttering underling plundering by night, swash
Buckeling, cudgelling in blind sight
Blunder my mother we're under the weather but
Over the river and nothing recovered thethers to the bank
Bind us otherwise, limbs shackled to the tide,
Blundering, blundering, blundering, 'till the day we die
So smile guys, walk in confidence spend your extra lives with
care and providence, don't forget the extra condiments
Lock it in and talk it out, friends are forever forgiven in doubt
So I'll never sing a sailing ship for the sake of a stiff lip.

Cyclops Rock, that's Polyphemus Counterculture
Welcome to the game, grab a chair, count the vultures
We don't even face the day, we don't rush,
We grab it by the ass, proceed to take it home with us
Go to sleep then do it again, rinse repeat 'til the work week ends
Spend weekends killing apprehension with some smoke to kill the tension
Pay attention hateful acre owner cover judge, anger boner
Take away an ounce of understanding, that said:

Fuck collagen filler follower hollow headed unapologetic synthetic collegiates, bedded wedded and deaded, I said it.
Indebted to creditors? Better to shred it, you wrote it now edit it, getter beam a scene of betters to fetter it
On some disobey it to the letter shit, every week another mothership to beam us all up under it
Another hundred hunted underrated by their brother, slip past

Some day you'll see my name in stained glass, all the same I'm not
Killin' it for the fame, I'm teaching class
You're a student if you feel it, if I bleed then I congeal it
On a silver plate, serve it up like a dinner date to beats I made, I can't decide if
I decide my fate or if it's always the same like the way the track is played
Going insane to the track today, every day in every way
'Cause it's my will, m-monster kill
You know the drill so get your fill
Instilling a million meaningless hopes
Forgive him for this is the way that he copes
Eyepatch power chords, Catch-22 and rhyme hordes
Recorded for posterity, your posterior better be scared of me
When I ensnare a beat we're coming for blood and eating the meat
Come for the music, stay for the feast, word to the feeders and peace.
