Chill Song 02:14
He doesn’t listen to what you’re saying He’ll keep at it despite what he’s hearing He’s steering into the river To get to the sea Where he can be free Imagine swimming with fishery lasses Speed away and don’t come up to breath He’s hard up, stranded, and heavy handed His fingers are fucked up and he knows he’s floating away Vaporize knelt down tapping on a railway line To see if the sound will go for a while What’s a while? I don’t understand time He knows it’s coming so it might as well be here The leaves will stay but the tree gets the ax It’s like a rainstorm which quickly passes Unless he gets past it and follows the street signs

Anticipation 01:58
In the middle of the afternoon It’s too soon To tell what’s gonna happen tonight And in the middle of the morning It’s too soon To tell what’s gonna happen

I Am A Lie 02:24
Did you know that I am a lie I’m only a lie so say goodnight If you are cared then you’d say goodbye Please say goodbye so I can say goodnight Left in a hurry you forgot to carry The books you read lie open on the floor It’s just like you and me it’s plain to see Set out to succeed but it’s never enough I don’t want your lies
