Big Danger

It's going well somewhere even far from here.
Scared to die alone but you're the only one that feels your fear
I said
Leave your body behind by the riverside woah oh oh oh woah oh oh ohh
Free your mind from the lies of the bona fide woah oh oh oh woah oh oh ohh
(Oh) big danger
I'm coming in I'm never coming out
(Oh) big danger
Please walk me out I'm going senile
(Oh) big danger
I'm coming in I'm never coming down
(Oh) big danger
Here we go
Pensive born to think let's go extinct in a terrarium
Vacant as the night bereft of life's silence beatified
I said
Leave your body behind by the riverside oh woah oh oh woah ohh
Free your mind from the lies of the bona fide oh woah oh oh woah ohh
(Oh) big danger
I'm coming in I'm never coming out
(Oh) big danger
Please walk me out I'm going senile
(Oh) big danger
I'm coming in I'm never coming down
(Oh) big danger
Here we go

A Fish in a Race Car

Down in the valley where the old man preaches, there's a place where we can talk about our freedom
When the valley fills with water, we will plunder the cascades to find her
That dead body ain't ever gonna find me
Skimming gods hand as we swerve through the road
San Francisco where the sun kissed California
Gat on my shoulder as we're busking through the coast
I met a pirate he pulled something from the sand
And when I took it oceans rose over the land
Strange rumors of something in the water
It drowned the captains who were docked into the harbor
It's a long way down
From the jaws upon the mountain route
Got a fix on my breathing how?
I'm calm reprieve my doubt
Just stop thinking we ain't gonna die
Between the ocean and the mountainside
These tetrahedrons be scenic now
I got my homie at starboard bow
I'm just a fish in a race car
I'm not a mortal man
Nooooooooooooo

The Gate

Please
Hold me as we sway
Breathe
This body's in the way
No more time
No more pain
Don't wanna die no more, revive on worlds far away
From you
If I'm late to the grave I'll still sing songs to you through the gates
Echoes through space
Hitchhike a wave
I rip the sails to find the time in which you will wake
Loving
Thy light shuns beasts
The chains pull harder
Seize me
Syphon my love from the vein
Eat my heart whole
Sail south, don't let them take me away
Fail to run
They handcuff me
All aboard
Through sand they tug me
Hail the sun above where we live
Never want another lover
Never gonna have to search the stars again
Let's live undercover
It's with the earth we blend
Please
Love me all the way
Breathe
This body's in the way

Sleep Giant

Hell speak haunts me hailed from the depths of the crowd
Angels rotting above my heart in the attic of doubt
Oh light will always find all these wannabees
Spinning in seas of familiar faces the creatures of mirrors and suns
Looked down from the cloud over wavering mesas, it's where I'm gonna aim my gun
Woah I suddenly wanna savor
The last breath alone before I'm gone
Woah I'm a cunning innovative hater
Dragged 'til I'm bone through the stone and the muck
There's no way out of this corporeal form I've taken
Ain't no breach in the realm
Only through my dreams
No deceit no doubt hope's what'll rip through the ropes restraining
This beast from the town, oh let 'em be

I'm Not Here
04:12
|

I abstain defined In name
And I dream in confinement (No need to breath)
The lights are on (I can't see)
No escape
Watch the rain
Cuz I am not here (I'm in the echoes of the day)
My mind is so far away (I've got nowhere to stay)
Can't think too clear (Music in my ear)
Just try to get through the day
I reach up the abyss I've haunted and all I grip is your grief
My mind holds too much too silence my brain
(Get up get out)
When I find you when I'm done
(Here not found)
My bodies aching all the time
(Get up get out)
When you see me in the line
I feel chains that strain my expressions
Am I perceived in abhorrence (It isolates)
(I'll stay awake)
Cuz the sun just drowns there he has forsaken me
Cuz I am not here (I'm in the echoes of the day)
My mind is so far away (I've got nowhere to stay)
Can't think too clear (Music in my ear)
Just try to get through the day
Retreated dusk as my souls absconded, demeaned for the greed
I'm scraping barrels to find it
My brain
