How Far Will I Go

You come sneaking in as blurred outlines and vague beginnings
Just fragments and frequencies a hazy notion is stirring deep inside of me
From time to time you come around like a regular visitor of town
You never stay, I won’t be long, is what you say
You've got to be moving on
And when you’ve left it’s not the same here
A certain shimmer still remains
You come and go whenever you feel like it
This much I know
And every time you’re starting something new
for me to follow through
What are you headed for today, is there a concept, anyway?
You’re telling me, just wait and see and don’t you try to understand
'cause when you’ve left it’s not the same here
A certain shimmer still remains
You come and go whenever you feel like it
This much I know
And every time you’re starting something new
for me to follow through
,
I ask myself, how far will I go?

Set To Glow (2017)
04:14

The tired hands of time
Join to throw their shadow
And the borderline shimmers gold
This is yours and mine
We let nobody know
Let the light recline to regrow
We set to glow
There’s no history
Here to haunt the divide
That we dig to reap what we sow
A rhythm on repeat
That no one can describe
But we crave to be to let go
We set to glow
Words woven well
Can remind, can free minds
Words woven well
Can steal time, render blind
We lean in to be
Caught in charcoal and vines
Become scenery, begin to grow
Spreading secretly
Smudging all of the lines
Where we need to be to regrow
We set to glow

Take It On The Chin
04:32

Don’t you act like it’s gone away
I breathed it in
Words worked in and found a way
Under my skin
Hard times are ahead of me
But still you say
Take it on the chin my son
To win the hill upon which you run is a long one
And you’re gonna need strength and pride
Don’t provide them with a peek inside
Hide what you got away
There’s not a better way for a man to be a man
So take it on the chin
Words worm in while you’re unaware
Just how deep they’ve gone
Course set off to anywhere
But the pull is strong
Steer slowly and steadily
Still you’re at the helm
Take it on the chin my son
To win the hill upon which you run is a long one
And you’re gonna need strength and pride
Don’t provide them with a peek inside
Hide what you got away
There’s not a better way for a man to be a man
So take it on the chin

Plasticine

If you look for long enough its gonna look wrong
If you look for long enough its gonna look wrong
Momentary indecisiveness
Hesitation require inquest
Microscopically we analyze
Adjust the focus inspect the lines
If you look for long enough its gonna look wrong
If you look for long enough its gonna look wrong
We are made of plasticine
So dirty clean
Imperfectly in the know
We are made of plasticine
So dirty clean
Imperfectly goes to show
Left eye closed head tilted to one side
Push and poke dissect and magnify
Calculate the in-discrepancy
Crunch the numbers, make them bleed
We are made of plasticine
So dirty clean
Imperfectly in the know
We are made of plasticine
So dirty clean
Imperfectly goes to show
If you look for long enough its gonna look wrong
If you look for long enough its gonna look wrong
We are made of plasticine

One Beautiful Mess

This is one beautiful mess that you left me with
This is one beautiful mess that i cannot resist
Emphatically able to fully disable me
This is one beautiful mess that we're sitting inside
This is one beautiful mess that i should not abide
Disaster cascading but i'm not evading you
Chaos can be charming with your arms around me
If you let go the sound of the alarms'll drown me
Won't you surround me
This is one beautiful mess that you left me with
This is one beautiful mess that i cannot resist
You surround me
You surround me
You surround me
You surround me

Words are wise but eyes are wiser
All the while they tantalize her
I'll be waiting in the aisles and
We'll be wiser, this time
We'll be wiser, this time
Played the fool and payed the prices
All the rules and all the vices
Disregard all their devices
We'll be wiser, this time
We'll be wiser, this time
We'll be wiser, this time
We'll be wiser, this time
Lies'll hide inside the covers
Multiply and try to color
Worlds that once were more than lovers
We'll be wiser, this time
We'll be wiser, this time
We'll be wiser, this time (as if we never knew, or never wanted to)
We'll be wiser, this time (as if we never knew, or never wanted to)
