LYRICS

Deep-fake, deception, disinformation.Rumour, fabrication, misinformation.

Deceit, deflection, denial.Propaganda, censorship, control.

How do you make sense of it all?What if you've been lied to your whole life?What if life is just an illusion?

Just an illusion.Just an illusion.Just an illusion.For all the confusion in our lives.
What if our life is just an illusion?What if the optik lies?What if we can't see ourselves clearly, for all the confusion in our lives.In our lives.
Disruption, distortion, disinformation.Disguise, democratic decay, post-truth.(In our lie-ie-ie-ives).Lies.
Just an illusion.Just an illusion.Just an illusion.For all the confusion in our lives.
I hope you find a way.I need a little, I need a little help.
What if our life is just an illusion?
What if our life is just an illusion?
(Oh oh, oh oh. oh oh. Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh) .

I need some clarity.You need some clarity.

What if we can't see ourselves clearly, for all the confusion in our lives.
What if we can't see ourselves clearly, for all the confusion in our lives.
In our lives.

LYRICS:

They. 
The big players.
Sinister and devious.
You see through them.

You.
The smart outsider.
A "Critical thinker”.
None as smart as you.

Dangerous, divisive.
Brother against brother.
Friends become enemies.

Dangerous, divisive.
Brother against brother.
Friends become enemies.

They can’t see connections.
The significance, the detail, the signals.
The code is cracked.

Opposing views, there is no grey.
The Sun is The Moon and night is day.

If fact is fiction and truth is just lies.
You’re losing your way with wide open eyes.

Dangerous, divisive.
Brother against brother.
Friends become enemies.

Dangerous, divisive.
Brother against brother.
Friends become enemies.

Fight the construct!

Try to scale these walls
Try to make you see
All my intentions
Show you the real me

Not some sort of construct
Something fictional
I just want you to see the real me

You know me so well (x 3)
You know me a little too well
You know me oh so well
You know me so well

You know me a little too well (x 2)
You know me so well
You know me too well

It doesn't matter how I try to hide it
It doesn't matter how I try to fight it
It doesn't matter how I try to hide it
It doesn't matter how I try to fight it

You know me a little too well (x 5)

Try to scale these walls I build (x 2)
Can you scale these walls I build?
Can you scale the walls I build?

You know me a little too well (x 4)
You know the real me
You know me a little too well (x 3)

LYRICS:

She’s got her own demons.
Battles them every single day.
Can’t see no potential.

Don’t go breaking her heart.
Catch the moment in a photograph.
All for the rush of love.

All because.
All because.

It’s all she wants.
It’s all she needs.
It’s just, a rush of love.
It’s just love.

So tell the world to listen quietly.
Hush, the beating heart races so fast.
All because of the rush of love.
All because of the rush of love.

Don’t go breaking her heart.
Catch the moment in photograph.
All for the rush of love.
All for the rush of love.

It’s all she wants.
It’s all she needs.

RUSH OF LOVE

A X6402 collaboration:

STEPAN
TaNezha x Six Four Zero Two

–
THE COLLABORATION
This X6402 Collaboration is with 'TaNezha'  (Tetyana Nizhynska) who is a singer based in Kyiv, Ukraine.
The lyrics were written and sung by TaNezHa, a capella, in the style of a traditional Folk song. 'Six Four Zero Two' created the music, responding emotionally to the story and mood: "I wanted the music to soar and weave fluidly around the constant that is the voice".

THE TRACK
‘Stepan’ is a story about the strength of a young girl whose partner goes off to war and is lost for some time. When the people eventually gather to hail the Cossacks triumphant return, he is not with them. The girl is forlorn and returns home where, she finds him waiting in the courtyard. A joyful return to love, peace and their homeland.

Lyrics and Vocal: Tetyana Nizhynska.

LYRICS:
Translation from Ukrainian.

There, in the meadow at the edge of the forest, a girl was walking,
looking for healing thyme, mint and roses.
She was singing as she walked "I am collecting the potion for Stepan,
so he can stay strong and defeat the enemies".

When she went to the valley she saw Cossacks,
returning home to Nenka (homeland) in a big crowd.
"Oh, you men, you dear fellows, how happy I am to see you.
Where is my beloved Stepan? I yearn to see him".

"Oh my dear, we do not know, he did not follow.
We know not of his fate, we have not seen him".
The sweet girl burst into tears and went home.
“Where have you gone, my Stepan? My eternal love".

"Oh, you dear man, if only you all would come back home.
Let all of our enemies be gone!", the sweet girl cried.
Then, as she entered the yard she saw Stepan,
waiting there, to joyfully meet his beloved girl.

LYRICS:

Oh so bright and early, yet I cannot see the way.
If I ever find it, promise me that you will stay.

Stay.
Out of the dark in my heart.
Out of the dark in my mind.
Let me be the one, that changes your, mind.

She's Ornamental.
Ornamental. Ornamental.

I can't see for looking.
Lightning strike me twice.
Pretty, picture perfect lives.

You can't rewind, from this.
Oh, into the great abyss.
Oh, you can't.
You can't rewind from this.

It's ornamental.
From this. From this.
You can't rewind from this.
Pretty, picture perfect lives.
Pretty, picture perfect lives.

Ornamental. Ornamental.

You can't rewind from this.
You can't rewind from this.
Oooh, she's Ornamental.

Ornamental. Ornamental.
Ornamental. Ornamental.
Ornamental. Ornamental.

LYRICS
Lyrics by TaNezha.
–
Through the meadow, over hills, 
where the soft winds blow.
Every step she takes her time, 
moving slow.

Oh, the cat, she wanders, 
across the valley wide.
Through the golden fields, 
with the mountains at her side. 

She’s chasing shadows, 
dancing in the light.
Dancing in the light.

The river hums a tune, 
the stars begin to rise,
she’s lost in the moonlight.

A sparkle in her eyes, 
every step a mystery, 
every turn is a prize.

A quiet journey, 
where her heart never sighs.

She’s chasing shadows, 
dancing in the light.
Dancing in the light.

Underneath the endless sky, 
she’s never far from home. 

She’s chasing shadows, 
dancing in the light.
Dancing in the light.

A wanderer at peace, 
forever at unknown.

CHASING_SHADOWS

Originally a 6402 instrumental. This version features lyrics by Bent Cousin, vocals by Wheelwright and production by Guiville.

Turning Point (6402 + Bent Cousin, Wheelright & Guiville)

A track made out of despair – of a World that forgets the lessons of the past, gives Narcissism a stage and is seduced once more by a divisive narrative of hate; of the failure of democracy and a World where a Clown can lead the Circus.

The Confines

A track inspired by the words of a Mother's Son. 

The Cruel Sea
_
Don't go to sea you begged
It's a cruel place
Separating Mothers from Sons

It takes people away, hear me when I say
There's a better way to make a living

I did as you asked, stayed on the land
Yet I left anyway, travelled far, saw much, learned little
Now, years later, I return to find you

Your presence remains but you are not the same  
Those words, always remembered only now understood
This sea is cruel, that separates you and I
