Resolution
03:05

The train tracks stretch
And bend themselves
A mockingbird wounded in a trap
Its world collides
Chasing tales of resolution
And I fail outright
I’m more bitter
Than a traffic warden on speed
And I’m coming for
Your brand new Beamer
Chasing tales of resolution
And I fail outright
Chasing tales of resolution
And I fail outright

Altered State

Altered state
Laid out
Shoes worn in
Wet with dew
I’ve never seen
So clear
Whispers round
But I’m still invisible
I prefer it that way
Unobtrusive and sensible
To slide off the rails
For a little while
Can’t explain
Hands untied
I’ve turned my back
On last minute desperate measures
I’ve never seen
So clear
Whispers round
But I’m still invisible
I prefer it that way
Unobtrusive and sensible
To slide off the rails
For a little while

He thought no one noticed
His slight of hand
Under a table cloth
Of politeness
He’s an invader
A scather
He’s a blatant misbehaver
Who’s promised a few too many times
I took my hat off
I was just uncomfortable
I’m empathetic
Not just necessarily sympathetic
That much too all
There’s a professor
On crutches
With a petulant intolerance
For intolerance itself
She’s puzzled by cooperation
A little humility would do her good
Doses of reality
You knew you should
I took my hat off
I was just uncomfortable
I’m empathetic
Not just necessarily sympathetic
That much too all

Anger Of Achilles

Hey man
To where are you striding so fast?
I’m still bound, clasped
Don’t know if I’ll make it or last
My brambles coil
Into an elegant mess
I figured
I never said I was strong
The anger of Achilles
Means more than you know
A child’s told he has no flaws
But he’s so sure that they show
Apparently friendship
Lives on a one way street
I’m not good enough
For anyone I meet
I figured
I never said I was strong
The anger of Achilles
Means more than you know
A child’s told he has no flaws
But he’s so sure that they show

Pick yourself off the floor
You’ve done this before
Your mind creaks
And shivers
But hope still
Shows in the lines of your face
Pick yourself off the floor
You’ve done this before
Your mind creaks
And shivers
But hope still
Shows in the lines of your face

Come see the faces of the bold
Some take years to remould
Nobody said it would last
But I refuse
To stay helpless in the cold
I want to fly
I want to reach these heights
Shallow chains and more
Set frames
Optimism could do more
To realign my sights
No more pressure, more
Free space
Come see the faces of the bold
Some take years to remould
Nobody said it would last
But I refuse
To stay helpless in the cold
