Track Name: The blindness of our kind
Prima ballerina
Play us back a life
Dance through light and darkness
The blindness of our kind

Likewise you and I
We dance to our own demise
Perform like ballerinas
The blindness of our kind

Its a drop in the ocean
Such is our solitude
We fail to see it through
Track Name: Ultimatum time
You came along in a cloud of dust
I knew from then on in that I could trust you
We got along like a house on fire
Then the winds came in, the flames grew higher

The time has come for the ultimatum
How did it all go wrong?
You know that you belong
You know that you belong

To mesmerize some misery
Is to clarify the authenticity
You weave the sound and heave that ho
Perceive the land and let it show

The time has come for the ultimatum
How did it all go wrong?
You know that you belong
You know that you belong
You know that it can't be long
Just to duly feel that you belong
Duly feel

We took it in, in ourselves
Look at the seals and burned the never tears
See how we feel within ourselves
See how we feel without the images

No excuses
No forgetting
No subtitles on
Its ultimatum time
Its ultimatum time

How could it all go wrong?
You know that you belong
You know that you belong
You know that it all gets right
But just come out and meet me
Come out and meet me tonight
Track Name: General paralysis of the sane
Back into the fray
Back into the daydream
You know I could leave it all behind
If I personify I need to clarify
Then I'd identify the fate from the fiction
Don't blame me, tonight

God is dead Fred said so put on the kettle
God is dead Fred said so make us a brew

My back is back to lay
Lain unto the night dream
Have I laid it on the line?
Its in the entity from my identity
But it won't set ease my fascination
Don't blame me, tonight

God is dead Fred said so put on the kettle
God is dead Fred said so make us a brew
Its too late, its too late for the immortal
God is dead Fred said for him and for you

And I met some guy on the 393
We talked quite odd and can the others see
Yeah we spoke of song
He bit our mother tongue

God is dead

Don't blame me
God is dead Fred said so put on the kettle
God is dead Fred said so make us a brew
Its too late, its too late for the immortal
Its getting too late for me and for you
Track Name: Smaller ways
Bright and breezy
Alliteration of the sea
Its not so easy
To tell you what I've seen
To tell you what I've seen

Is it a flight of fancy?
Or a fall to fallacy?
Now I can't see what's ahead of me
What's ahead of me

All ways
All smaller ways
Small ways
Small ways
They've been building up forever
With a never ending tether
Always

The sweetness and light
Is getting sicky and sticky
You know things ain't quite right
When you suck it and see
When you suck it and see

Always smaller ways

All ways
All many ways
Small ways
Small ways
They've been building up forever
With a never ending tether
Always

Are you here with us?
Can you hear, can you hear us?
You are near, you are near
So near to us
It is clear to us
You are waiting

All ways
They're building building til they're fulfilled
Small ways
Its like fortified before it is real
Its been building up forever
With a never ending tether
Always

All ways
They're building building til they're fulfilled
Small ways
Its like fortified before it is real
They've been building up forever
With a never ending tether
Always
Track Name: Brutal Beauty
Faith is a billion eyes
To catch you by surprise
This brutal beauty beckons you inside
It feasts its eyes on you
To prove you've never moved
On track it only gets you down
You can give it up
But it only gets you down

Instilled incalcate

Life after labour
A hard labour of love
This moment is to savour
Why is it never enough
Why is it never enough
Why is it never enough

Into the city
Into the habits
Into the smash it
Into the grab its
You can give it up
But it only gets you down
You shake it up
But it only gets you down

Instilled incalcate

Why is it never enough
Why is it never enough
Why is it never enough
Instilled incalcate

Why is it never enough
Why is it never enough
Why is it never enough

Oh how I used to use you
I used to use you until you used me
The situation
The situation's proved too hard to see
I'll never see you
I'll never see you
See you again
My brutal beauty
My brutal beauty
Too hard

Instilled incalcate
Why is it never enough
Why is it never enough
Why is it never enough
Instilled incalcate
Why is it never enough
Why is it never enough
Why is it never enough
Track Name: Souls in fieri
I know the story
I read the script
One man goes missing
Whilst another one takes his pitch
We're all in line for the same divine predicament
Someone else calls it a ditch

And its all just theory
We're just souls in fieri

To live a life is quite a job
The same old question
The answers we'll never know, never know
Its not the yin and its not the yang
Thats why we're here
I take its for the fun

And its all theory
We're just souls in fieri
We are souls in fieri
Its just all a theory

We're all in this alone
We are the ghosts of rotting bones
The things we have
We have to leave
The things we love
We have to let them go
Let them go
Oh, let 'em go
Let them go
