Lyrics:

I see the world collapsing right here where I stand then check the mirror hair is thinning out to strands a baby in the pram is babbling dummy spat onto the concrete and the mother drags the pram city breaks round the globe but I’d rather pop a xan oh fuck a porn addiction burned skin on my palms

I see this small commotion recovering from too many toxins trying not to look too sketchy at 5 am that’s kinda tricky 

And it’s freedom freedom

Seen a kid die at pool side made me realise life is precious sleepless nights rum at bedside just imagine how the parents feel if my brother dies before me don’t think I’ll live with myself won’t stop me from slowly killing myself in the meantime nostrils are filled with concrete my skin is kind of patchy struggling just to exhale I’m worried what the future entails 

I can’t be trusted with my own thoughts when spoken aloud be better off in brail just want them to feel my message 

(Freedom freedom freedom freedom)

Lyrics:

I said it out loud you can’t get close to me before it feels like all too familiar scenes wasn’t looking for this emotion breach punching shower walls now it’s out of reach and I can’t stomach the fact that you’re not with me girls follow feet after feet can’t seem to balance the beams and I know that silence fuels my insanity notes of hypocrisy don’t want to turn to speech

Glaciers in picture frames and ice cold thawed simulations glaciers in picture frames and ice cold thawed simulations

I know that you can’t help but try to spy on the lockdown code for my spongy side you pry beneath to pick at how I feel and my expressions never been one to seal all the hurt that I try to cage inside my eyebrows twist and contort when the notion lies he may just be the one to give you married life I think you’re waiting on me stunted I can’t reply 

Glaciers in picture frames and ice cold thawed simulations glaciers in picture frames and ice cold thawed simulations glaciers in picture frames and ice cold thawed simulations glaciers in picture frames and ice cold thawed simulations

Tell me you’re not right for me please tell me that you lied to me every time we share company so harmoniously it’s all smokescreens that’s why I’ll keep you in a glass frame emergency break removed in case we think it’s right get a stupid idea hindsight we can’t override I’ll admire you in all your glory wish well upon you and your story and find my way because happiness I can’t seem to find

Glaciers In A Glass Frame

Lyrics:

I’m about to make a beeline just to slap down the bitch who plays with my name let me know if I ever need to pay the rent for living so snugly in each wall of your head sink them rabbit teeth into my dirty cleats cause you a dust eater stain below my feet ooh it must make you seethe that’s why you’re clinging on calling me copyright thief 

I don’t need no music theory to lay down my vision my talent is seen clearly that’s why I’m spic and span clinch glass cleaner and your a ginger man less talent lot meaner ‘cause it’s time for me to address the list of enemies I’ve created living so abrasively climb your little plastic mountains show off cheap trips to Thailand 

‘Cause I’ll be Mount Olympus touching patience is a virtue I’m cooking up in the oven holding back the fact I could fuck you up if I ever were to overreact I’m autistic that makes you feel better ‘bout yourself? Say it and on top of that a mental health patient I used to work at a real estate agents cheeky cow 

Told me I pick pictures wrong made the flyers fragrant understand I’m the artist love imprisoned but next generation Sir Patrick Stewart so knight or fight me either way I’ll leave uprightly 

Why you ignoring me Night & Day Cafe is it the lack of indie band imitation of Liam Fray? Can’t believe I’m throwing a reference to one of the shittest bands in Manchester their tunes stinking up the joint Red Leicester my bad let me apologise to the dark fruit university freshers who eat up mediocrity killed guitar music scene entirely 

Reclamation of city life you know you feel like you just can’t quit it reclamation of city life you know you feel like you just can’t quit it reclamation of city life you know you feel like you just can’t quit it reclamation of city life you know you feel like you just

So swim swim swim in the shit that you’re drowning in you’re late 20’s married got no talent got no real friends just an unwanted opinion to lend and aren’t you so opinionated I’m trying show respect your voice nails inside of my eardrum scraping away the very last modicum of fucks that I gave but don’t worry bitch face I don’t want you so take that suppressed urge and flake

All the words you’re coughing got my name stuck to it did I give you narcissistic fibrosis? I’m trying to be humble I’ve tried to be humble I even was polite held the door dumble is an insult I wont take from you these thoughts I let stew in the board room for review  I’m a wordsmith a charismatic man so mathematician was never in the plan I leave the jobs worth to thrive in  that pie guess why? I got this slick new thing a calculatrice I’ve counted it up divided and multiplied my enemies I’ve made a few enemies some that are frenemies

Reclamation of city life you know you feel like you just can’t quit it reclamation of city life you know you feel like you just can’t quit it reclamation of city life you know you feel like you just can’t quit it reclamation of city life you know you feel like you just

Systematic depiction of city life breathes shakes its knees pump and squeeze quarter spoon of ketamine debrief her thong is wrapped in the gaps of my teeth her thong is wrapped in the gaps of my teeth

Reclamation Of City Life

Lyrics:

Sadness finds me sadness finds me in a broken place in a hopeless state it finds me

The same routine isn’t working for the 7th time and I’d rather be alone than to be with one that might not necessarily tick every box usually it’s at the aftermath of a cosmic array of emotional pain and loss that bundles with a sense of hopelessness that  leaves me with a drying  stone in my chest but she quenches without a request and refills my lives I’m falling deeply in love but it’s not quite cause I don’t get what I need not entirely I’m hanging on 

To a receipt where the text has scratched off and the clerk behind the counter proceeds to scoff and while I um and I ah over my next move it finds me creeping up on the neck a gentle cheeky touch that always winds me up yes I enjoy the chase but never win the race now I’m counting up my days

My months and my years waiting patiently ‘till your schedule’s clear but how long will this consumption by fear find me? She’ll always be the perfect one but how many ones can one man line up I’m chasing fairy tales but can’t read a book a reminder that I’ll always fuck up and you’ve found me oh you’ve found me I thought that you really cared tell me what I felt wasn’t shared and you’ve moved past me and I’ll rise again but how many times can I get back up before

Sadness finds me sadness finds me in a broken place in a hopeless state it finds me sadness finds me sadness finds me in a broken place in a hopeless state it finds me always finds me

Sadness Finds Me

Lyrics:

Out of body O-Matic dial fiction for a space mechanic and shoot me out of my physical side and I will ride the clocks and rewrite time abra cadabra Las Vegas Nevada neon tubes on the strips road sides will I read the signs I missed the first time 

So much for being me but if I change the bad will I retain the good? Oh look at that it’s dust well I would disagree you can’t trade your life but build from the ground up oh your heart is enough

If I change up the scene a butterfly spies turn up the faculty and a black plant dies and if someone’s life gets cursed should I feel guilty shouldn’t I look out for me first? Those who ain’t funny try too hard and those who are it’s an emotional guard when anxiety wears your insides out top hat made of nervous system parts 'cause you brain shoots to depart but your heart chakra bench pressed like a machine part

So much for being me but if I change the bad will I retain the good? Oh lord look at that it’s dust well I would disagree you can’t trade your life but build from the ground up you are enough believe yourself don't shut it down believe in yourself don't you shut it down you are enough woo

Will I drift away? Will I drift away? Safety tether off and all the milky way dancing stars imploding have you ever truly been lost? Is this the worst feeling I guess not

Out Of Body O-Matic

The Milky Way's Remote

Lyrics: 

Reminisce by the engines I don my tea towel cape isn’t often I long for comfort of simpler days when a scrape on the knee was the worst kind of pain I faced now I’ve had much hindsight to go ahead make the same mistakes 

But the highs come with the deepest lows the memories I’ve saved the people that have stayed I wouldn’t trade in no kind of way cause it’s my home but it’s missing one 

This time my gut feeling says and if I’m to wrought the wrong road that loops me back around constellations already found I’ll know you were the one I don’t want to die alone

Normandy SR2

Lyrics:

My compass is broken I’m no tinkerer I don’t have the heart to fix it yeah and right now I need those wings to swoop down and drag me up but those wings are in an alleyway dumpster all lifeless and cut up I know what’s wrong with me I’m too head strong to open my weakest wounds to others but I’m too weak in the head to accept that opening up will bring healing from others if you could change it all in hindsight would you?

Hard-lines your life untied from the torturing hands truth left undefined in time each step you climb brings a punishing trap hope dies on the vine

10 years on from now will it keep on rolling down? changes in my life I’m waiting on you now 10 years on from now will it keep on rolling down? changes in my life I’m waiting on you now 

Pin is pulled without a drop familiar scratch as the record stops the only sound is drowned as the shower sops onto a man who cries ‘till his eyeballs throb the tears and lumps form into a knot silenced so no one around heard the sobs keep it tight keep it tight keep it tight ‘cause it’s a heart that has deadlifted so much of that one sided love 

Hard-lines your life untied from the torturing hands truth left undefined in time each step you climb brings a punishing trap hope dies on the vine hard-lines your life untied from the torturing hands truth left undefined in time each step you climb brings a punishing trap hope dies on the vine

(10 years on from now will it keep on rolling down? changes in my life I’m waiting on you now 10 years on from now will it keep on rolling down? changes in my life I’m waiting on you now)

Granite State

Lyrics: 

Rickety move when you suck the joy from my mood you up the levels like a jet fuelled vacuum polish the metal got my words gripped up in the vice the tip of my tongue holds the keys to your heart you’ll find

But we won’t break or subdue this awful mood that stubborn lovers can’t find room to conclude a stalemate okay on the count of 3 please baby put down your hate 

Oh you’re kidding yourself if you think you can resist it got my tilt globe on swivel like a whirling dervish tell me truthfully that you really deserve it your guide to heaven above an unmistakable

Colour me shocked if the awful sounds do resume of rumours twisted from the truth so far misconstrued I want to feel you again second chance I guess not it’s all on me now but I’ve lost my grip of the plot 

But we won’t break or subdue this awful mood that stubborn lovers can’t find room to conclude a stalemate okay on the count of 3 please put down your hate 

Oh you’re kidding me if you think you can resist it got my tilt globe on swivel like a whirling dervish tell me truthfully that you really deserve it your guide to heaven above an unmistakable love you’re kidding me if you think you can resist it got my tilt globe on swivel like a whirling dervish tell me truthfully that you really deserve it your guide to heaven above an unmistakable love your guide to heaven above an unmistakable 

Your guide to heaven above an unmistakable love your guide to heaven above an unmistakable

Whirling Dervish

Lyrics:

Take a peak of your souls horizon it scrapes off a piece of you the slice that can’t forgive and forget when they’re onto sunsets new alleviate the shame that festers the scars you caused will always rue she forgives but you hear in her eyes the fear you brought will always stew

If I could just get a word in but I have wasted my words on cruelty and lies regurgitated line after line now I’ll listen in silence put a pin in the violence 

Take a piece of your souls horizon use as teachings to complete your muse when I knew you were going through it refused to see good sense emotional rollercoaster could have pulled the break made it stop selfishness couldn’t face accepting what we had had now been lost even if it meant that you hated me I’d rather mean something than nothing the deepest cut I know I hung on like a scab ‘till it was peeled off

If I could just get a word in but I have wasted my words on cruelty and lies regurgitated line after line now I’ll listen in silence put a pin in the violence 

We made amends you said we’d still be friends but the sigh of relief was signalling the end ‘cause whilst things can mend you can’t capture lighting in a bottle again no no no and whilst there’s nothing left to show I needed you to know god I needed you to know I loved you so much please don’t go
