Lyrics:
I can recall
The lecture hall
Steps
Not knowing the import of the day

I chose the seat
You were asleep
Yet
It was always going to be that way
Be that way

Far from alert
Hawaiian shirt
Kept
All conformity at bay
At bay

St. John's hunt to find
A pool tournament prize
Being alive
Running down the south spine
Just to make some time

Battle of the bands
At Kanteena and
As we watched it
Made the most awkward mosh pit
Formed of me you and Pav

(I can recall
The lecture hall

I chose the seat
You were asleep)

I had thought I might
Collaborate sometime
But the moment I heard
Static and INSERT COIN
I knew I had to write... (x3)

Steps

Lyrics:
My dopamine
Tight rope 'round me
Faux-pleasure
Forever
I'm dead alive
Electric life
Connect me

It soaks up time
It chokes my mind
Pervade me
I'm empty
Allow the strain
Arouse my brain
Direct me

I've got some feed in my hand for the soul
It makes me whole
They know my role
It takes its toll
I've got a feeling on demand all the time
Clouded paradigm
I feel sublime
I'm in my prime

It brought me up, don't bring me down i'm so high
I'm dead alive for an electric lifetime
Connect my life
Connect me

Electric Life

BPM: 174

Lyrics:
You're in a coastal town and most already drove off that cliff
Don't go stalling

You chose debt by convention so now have to choose how you'll pay it back
Watcha doin'?

You trip into a blizzard and your vision is severely obscured
Which way are you heading?

Your opportunity pool will be stagnant by February

Graduate

BPM: 112

Lyrics:
Move in channels
Watch as life unravels
Steadily

Being born before being mourned
Is it all preformed
Destiny?

Egg collision
Leads to cell division
Meant to be?

We all move like atoms
Collide and interact our whole life
We form bonds when we grow fond
Then the cycle starts again
Can't predict how it'll pan out
But no doubt you'll find out

Since arriving on the plane, so kaleidoscopic,
I just collide along the way
Kaleidoscope array
Collide and hope I don't die

Colliding

BPM: 128/180

Lyrics:
Oh oh oh oh it was all a dream

I'm filled full of fulfillment and pride
(Pried my soul open and pried inside)
Sighed a seismic sigh of contentedness
Nestled in my sheets unaware of this

I have purpose and no boundaries
Reasons to rise up and carry on
On cloud 9 8 7 6 5 4
Fall to reality as it starts to pour

I'm arriving in my writhing when I say
Oh oh oh oh it was all a dream

Waking moments
Fake bestowments
I'm arriving in my writhing when I say
Oh oh oh oh it was all a dream

Lying trying arising
Eyes sting: lighting's uninviting
I'm requiring self-esteem
Oh oh oh oh it was all a dream

Intense Dreaming

BPM: 125

Lyrics:
Me and some friends sat up in the trees and made a little fire but the warden found out, kicked out
Often we’d go there, up in The Hills where we were all Abel to feel alive all Weeknd, don’t end
We’d play a variant of dodgeball and illegally downloaded songs
In the pool by day, and by night: card games with my friends from the site alright

Most of my mates went swimming in a lake, spent time in the freezing water off the main track, no looks back
Through a small cave, we slid on rocks bravely, then headed West singing Kanye on the way
I went mad on the ad libs as we passed on the mountain path
Some sections I ran up but that fast tired me out so I gave that up

I don’t want just to survive, I’ll spend my life being alive

Being Alive

BPM: 135-127

Lyrics:
Is all we know material
And given time we'll understand our minds?
(What's mind? No matter
What's matter? Nevermind)

AC and electrolytes
Govern our electric lives
What could spark the spark?
The current in the heart

Or can the mind and the soul not be
Identified with the physical body?
Does their indivisibility
Cause a clear cut duality?

What's mind? No matter
What's matter? Nevermind

Is mind intrinsically in all things?
Can we find where matter ends and mind begins?
Who are we to know?

And should a consciousness of sorts be
Added to present a new ontology?
Who are we to know?

No-one can ever win
Philosophising

Maybe the human body exists
Only if a mind is comprehending it
Who are we to know?

Since our reality's a construct
Which relates to ideas and perception but
Who are we to know?

Mind-Body

BPM: 82

Lyrics:
Back to Dallas road we're down in the basement
Which was, given the time, foreseeably vacant
With the window looking up to the pavement
Got no bed but with the sofas adjacent
We constructed me a fine replacement
We were never complacent
All the ideas were latent
But the work ethic and pace meant
They developed from nascent
The transformation was blatant
A few hours of day spent

Now you are hearing where they went

The blizzard is dying down
And vision is less obscured now
Pathways being found
Goodbye to the coastal town
Now we've left LA1
That whole era has been and gone
We missed it while blinking
Now I'm thinking...

Sofa Men

BPM: 90

Lyrics:
Hardship, cracked deck but hope you're not rejecting
What to expect when you're not expecting
Hitches, rely on time it will fix em
Couldnt write it, stranger than fiction
How life can turn on a sixpence
And defy any prediction
It works the best
In hopelessness

Relation ship-wrecked but hope you're not neglecting
What to expect when you're not expecting
Take on board how to tackle
Swapping that glass to half full
Notch yourself up and travel
And watch as life just unravels
Magnetism to
Help it find you

What to Expect When You're Not Expecting

Hot Right Now (Cover)

Wet Library are an indietronica music duo formed in 2021 in Lancaster/Derby/Warrington (it's complicated). They are formed of James Tomlinson (on tunes, mostly) and Luca Vincent (on vocals, mostly).

Their process usually involves Tomlinson creating a banger-worthy piece of music on his laptop or computer and then Vincent turning said music into a banger through the medium of words - written and sung by himself.

In February of 2021, they released their debut single 'Electric Life' on the music platforms SoundCloud and Bandcamp. A track that would soon receive critical acclaim from some guy's dad. This was followed by 'Being Alive' in April of the same year. This was followed by 'Colliding' in May of the same year. This was followed by 'A Very Wet Library Christmas' in December of the same year.

The duo then decided that now was about time to venture onto the little-known platform that can only be described as 'Spotify' with their track 'Being Alive'. A track about some of the better parts of Tomlinson's life with a general message of 'Don't just survive; spend your life being alive'. The other tracks are rumoured to be released onto the platform in the future.

There are murmurings of the possibility that Wet Library could be working towards releasing an album of sorts sometime in the near future(ish), but, for now, we will have to wait and see what's to come.

I've been Jemima Flark and you've been reading the Wet Library SoundCloud bio. Thank you and goodnight.

TL;DR Wet Library is a band.
