If it's true, we must be out of the galaxy,
for now though, fated to a logical end.
'cause every belt we pass, I pray is not the last.
Sit down, think loud,
when the lightning comes, I play the game.
You're really mine,
this is the track to new terrain.
The supercomputer's taking control of me,
but I will not relinquish my wishes to be alone.
And in the darkest times, I need to find the line,
'cause I don't know if I can take the end.
'cause every belt we pass, I stare out through the glass,
and shut my eyes and think fast.
Sit down, think loud,
when the lightning comes, I play the game.
You're really mine,
this is the track to new terrain.
Sit down, think loud,
when the lightning comes, I play the game.
You're really mine,
this is the track to new terrain,
but I don't know if you'll find your end.
Bordering on insanity,
where we've been, my liege.
Three hundred thousand parsecs keep me free.
Sit down, think loud,
when the lightning comes, I play the game.
You're really mine,
this is the track to new terrain.
Freedom! Freedom!
When the lightning comes I play the game.
You're really mine.
This is the track to new terrain,
this is the thing we're chasing after,
this is the best way to escape.

Wrong Diagnosis

I'm scared there's something in me eating away my life.
I know I'll never make sense of where we've been or where we'll be.
'cause I know you are out there with a wish,
and crying only makes me more selfish.
Take my heart 'cause I can barely hold it up,
and even if they find a cure for this I'll still be ravaged.
Hold my life for just a second whilst I realign,
'cause even if I find myself I know I'll end up losing me again.
The novelty's wearing off and now my mind is numb.
The future's getting too real and fighting back's making me ill.
When I close my eyes, everything is fine.
But like light through the grey, Anne-Claire saves the day.
Take my heart 'cause I can barely hold it up,
and even if they find a cure for this I'll still be ravaged.
Hold my life for just a second whilst I realign,
'cause even if I find myself I know I'll end up losing me again.
But now everything I've learnt means nothing again,
and where we'll be starts to mean nothing to me,
but, this I know, perceptions change and time's rearranged,
but one thing always stays the same.

You're smiling in a photograph,
but it ain't bound to last.
When will we go again?
Your eyes are liabilities,
they bring me down to my knees.
When will we go again?
This never seems to be something.
But I don't know,
and if it shows,
well then I'm sorry.
Mayheart Oakwood,
where we go, I'll never know.
Sooner or later,
Megan Webb, I'll never forget you.

remember me and the way we met.

The Racetrack

Easter swallowed us whole this year,
but quickly spat us back out.
Now I'm faced down in dirt and black and blue.
A broken record we've become,
each year a little closer,
but there are only so many mistakes
that we both can make.
Last night I realised this thing only works because you're not here,
and my thoughts are at the racetrack.
I'm driving alone at night wrestling with the idea of you.
I need so much more than riding.
The remnants of a friendship passed,
we watched it fly right by, bye.
Now everything I've said seems insincere.
The record is on fire now
and burning through the floorboards,
so let's get up and finish this story.
Your allegory.
Last night I realised this thing only works because you're not here,
and my thoughts are at the racetrack.
I'm driving alone at night wrestling with the idea of you.
I need so much more than riding.
Can we say our lives have changed?
I'll be cautious with the words.
Last night I realised this thing only works because you're not here,
and my thoughts are at the racetrack.
I'm documenting and filing in my head everything that we have ever done,
'cause it's so much more than over.

What She Represents

I'm really hoping that life is nothing like what I'm pretty sure it is.
The people in this play bear quotes they'd never say.
And everyone comes back again,
to this show that will not end.
Fall down,
don't forget you're the bitch.
My eyes just fell out of my head and in to the black holes that are my hands.
The people in this play bear quotes they'd never say.
The people in dismay are people living great.
And everyone comes back again,
to this show that will not end.
The stars are always brighter in the other tangent universe.
Fall down,
don't forget me when you're on your knees.
To clarify, I want to die.
All this time you knew.

Departure

This is the last thing that you'll ever hear from me,
I'm departing.
One last glance through the airport,
then I'll down this drink and board the plane.
I'm sick and tired of trying to articulate the way I feel,
so after this song I'll leave it to Jim Adkins and spin the wheel.
Now I know that everything I've ever hoped this love means is over,
so over.
Now it's a beautiful time of year,
teenagers illegally drinking beer around us.
Before my eyes,
the memories start to die.
Now I'm contorted on the road,
recycled lyrics? are you joking?
'cause when I think of you with him, it's hard,
hard not to regret you.
Now I know that everything I've ever hoped this love means is over,
so over.
How can I be so angry and in good health?
Start again,
start over,
so over.
Now I break apart,
as everything I've ever done's spoiled.
I need this gone.
