Lyrics:

There's something I've missed
Is it a trick?
The way you all
Let go while I resist
We're growing sick
Yet still instead of healing
I just wish

That's ok
Follow me
Down the rabbit-hole
See how far it goes

Wished upon a star
That's when the sky went dark

Take a deep breath
Close your eyes
Fly
Blind

Bind them tightly
Visualise
Nosedive

Just promise you won't look
It won't do you any good

That's ok
Follow me
Down the rabbit-hole
See how far it goes

Palimpsest

Wish

Lyrics:

Final call
Pick a side for suicide
Tug of war
In a quicksand pit

Can you hear the whispers?
Screaming out,
Scheming in the distance.
Can you hear, can you hear the whispers?
My, my,
Screaming in, screaming out,
Scheming in the distance.

Keep talking
Get to know your echo
Sleepwalking
Through plagiarised lullabies
Ghost stories
Of nebulous malevolence
Smoke warning,
Your signal's forbidden

My, my,
Can you hear, can you hear the whispers?
My, my,
Screaming out, screaming in the distance
My, my,
Can you hear, can you hear the whispers?

Can you hear, can you hear the whispers
Screaming in the distance?
Can you hear, can you hear the whispers?

Screaming in, screaming out
Screaming in, screaming out
Screaming in, out
In, out
In, out
In, out

Screaming in
Screaming out

Rockin' You

The Metallica / ACDC influence can be heard in this one. Still didn't know that there is something called a pop filter. Recorded around 2000. What I was singing about back then, I do not know.
