1. Do Yourself A Favour
I want to know how the story goes
and if the sad song writes about how much you know
about what really happened. Obviously
you've got a skewed view or you weren't present to see.
With a healthy dose of evident
fabrication filling us in.
I want to know where you're coming from
and where you're going. Have you come undone?
There's a vitamin in this tune.
Step back a little bit. Give yourself room.
When you say, when you say how it used to be,
understand I don't need the waste following me.
When you say, when you say how it used to be,
understand I don't need the waste following me.
When you say, when you say how it used to be,
understand I don't need the waste following me.
Winding it up.
Twist It. Undone.
Winding it up.
Twist It. Undone.
When you say, when you say

Do yourself a favor. Give yourself room.
When you say, when you say how it used to be,
understand I don't need the waste following me.
Aww!
When you say, when you say how it used to be,
understand I don't need the waste following me.
When you say, when you say how it used to be,
understand I don't need the waste following me.
Me!
2. Crooked Floors
If I had the ability
I’d filter my vision. I’d rather not to see.
Take me out of the picture.
Take me out of the picture.
I don’t know how to do this right.
We’ve hammered the point home. Now it’s just a drag.
Take me out of the picture.
Take me out of the picture
or you could feed me, ‘cause I don’t want closure.
feed me, ‘cause I don’t want closure.
How long do I envision myself turning up on these crooked floors?
Wrestling stability. Grasping on to anchor in without a plan.
I, I guess I’ve gotta spin it right.
We’re, we’re rather mixed up in the prime.
I’ve gotta spin it right.
Who am I kidding? I don’t have the time.
(I’m turning up late for it. You’re never gonna sit and just wait for me.)
I see it backed up, set in a row.
When I have a moment I’ll let you know.
(I’m turning up late for it. You’re never gonna sit and just wait for me.)
While I’m waiting the next parade.
Too little, too late. I thought I warned you yesterday.
While I’m living, I’m chasing. I’m waiting for the next parade.
Don’t know if I fit the model anyway.
I’m waiting for the next...
I’m waiting for the next...
I’ve gotta spin it right.
We’re rather mixed up in the prime.
(I’m turning up late for it. You’re never gonna sit and just wait for me.)
I’ve gotta spin it right.

3. G.M. Vincent & I
When the winding starts there’s an absent sun.
Better not to focus on the consequence.
See the side of the road where we lost control.
For the way, the way it went down,
now we should be gone, and stored away.
Now look at us all, passing again.
G.M. Vincent & I.
Night won’t let up and I need to move.
This stretch rings, it rings a familiar tune.
Back and forth unavoidable path.
We wait.
Waited for someone to save us.
When you were stuck at the crash site.
Man I didn’t want to leave.
I couldn’t let you go. Now we’re back here to see.
When the winding starts there’s an absent sun.
Better not to focus on the consequence.
See the side of the road where we lost control.
For the way, the way it went down,
now we should be gone, and stored away.
Now look at us all, passing again.
G.M. Vincent & I.
Gone, and stored away.
Now look at us all,
We’re passing again.
We’re passing again.
Wait for someone to save us.
Wait for someone to save us.
Wait for someone to save us.
Wait for someone to save...
Do you want to come down take a look tonight?
Legs tangled under the vicious weight.
It’s harder to see. Ribs under the knees.
The pain in the vision.
I wait for someone to save you.
Wait for someone to save you.
Wait for someone to save you.
Wait for someone to save...
When the winding starts there’s an absent sun.
Better not to focus on the consequence.
See the side of the road where we lost control.
For the way, the way it went down,
now we should be gone, and stored away.
Now look at us all, passing again.
G.M. Vincent & I.
Gone (I might as well take a look tonight)
And stored away (where you were stuck under vicious weight.)
Now look at us all (Somehow we keep coming back. We’re passing again.)
4. Because Of All
Face and embrace.
When decisions lead up to consequence.
I force down the drain
any remnants left I let slip away.
Because of all the things I couldn’t say to you.
Because of all the things I couldn’t say to you.
Because of all.
Give it some time. Mulling it over.
Pulling down the shades ‘til the nerves recover.
You wanna know what’s really bothering me?
I’m not passive aggressive, but I had to leave.
Because of all the things I couldn’t say to you.
Because of all the things I couldn’t say to you.
Because of all the things I couldn’t say to you.
Because of all the things I should have said.
Because of all.
Give it some time.
Mulling it over.
Pulling down shades
‘til I can settle the score.
Closer, a little more.
Closer, a little more...
Face and embrace.
When decisions lead up to consequence.
I force down the drain
any remnants left I let slip away.
Because of all the things I couldn’t say to you.
Because of all the things I couldn’t say to you.
Because of all the things I couldn’t say to you.
Give it time, just a little closer.
Because of all the things I couldn’t say to you.
Build it up just a little more.
Because of all the things I should have said to you.
Give it time, just a little closer.
Because of all the things I should have said to you.
Because of all.
Because of all the things I couldn’t say to you.
5. The Concept Stays
Follow them, bowing out. Throw me the flag, I’ll take the opportunity.
Stuck in the moment, I’d pay the price if there’s a possibility.
I’ve been caught in the standard. I dragged it through the gutter
and what I left there doesn’t mean a thing.
Follow them, bowing out. I’ll pay the price if there’s a possibility.
I won’t stay here.
I won’t stay here.
I won’t stay here.
I’ve got to make the most of mine.
Now we hold the key and no doubt we always have.
Don’t you remember telling me
that’s there a lifetime to make these mistakes,
and when it’s almost over we’ll wish we would’ve made more.
And when the storm is over, we wish we would’ve made more.
I won’t stay here, I won’t stay I’ll take the opportunity.
Flat out I’ll stick it out, senses awake, accept responsibility.
Taking it farther, I’ll weed right through the clutter.
What’s left behind there doesn’t mean a thing.
Follow them, bowing out. I’ll pay the price if there’s a possibility.
Never easy to mend when all the pieces stand so far away.
Well I’ve been spending a long time looking in.
Feel the pulse and it’s aggravating.
Push and pull while the concept stays.
And I can’t get a peace of mind, and my head keeps racing.
And I can’t get a peace of mind, and my head keeps racing.
I fear my options are running out.
Why isn’t it getting easier to cope (to cope) without (without)?
To cope (to cope) without (without)?
And I can’t get a peace of mind, and my head keeps racing.
Inventory, I throw it away.
I’d rather mistakes. I’d rather not stay.
I won’t stay here. I won’t stay if there’s a possibility.
I won’t stay here. I won’t stay if there’s a possibility.
I won’t stay here. I won’t stay I’ll take the opportunity.
I won’t stay here. I won’t stay I’ll take the op, the opportunity.
6. Balance
We’re not the first, wiping ice from the blinder’s eyes.
We don’t know how long this will tide us over.
See results divide into very clear realities.
You couldn’t set them further apart and I
can’t ever look far enough.
Reach up to the highest point or brought down to the lowest level.
The balance will allow. Split and substain in front of me.
Build up the attainable, already set up to fail.
The balance will allow. Split and substain in front of me.
I’m worn right out asking for solutions I don’t need.
See the answers just aren’t good enough, and of course
after a while I’ve made a new realization.
As mush as I gain today, spills out even in a different way.
We’ll watch essentials dislocate, stripped away. Am I working in vain?
The balance will allow losing unexpectedly.
I know the balance will allow finding and recovering.
Balance will allow. Resolution’s finding me.
Balance will allow. Resolution’s finding me, finding me.
Balance will allow.
Balance will allow.
Balance will allow.
Resolution’s finding me.
When it rains it pours. See the floodgates opening.
Desolate, dry spells. When there’s nothing happening,
The balance will allow. Split and substain in front of me.

7. Symptoms + Cures
With the right kind of people
you could certainly put a slight dent in the walls.
It’s foundation built on tearing us down,
little by little. Turn it around.
I don’t know a lot of people
who have given as much of their lives and dedicated
theirs minds and souls so fervently
to the vision intact. Realize the power at hand.
Realize the power at hand.
Redesigning evil spit the right words making public disheveled.
As the poison spreads, who will shake these vultures down?
All set to realize ours, but these lights, these lights are blinding.
Split the tension underlining it all.
Redefining people, realize the power at hand.
This earth has opened up to see,
and the new world, new world’s getting smaller.
and the new, new world’s getting even smaller.
Refining the security.
Do you feel like the walls are closing in
Do you feel like the walls are closing in
or is it just me while I’m here getting caught up to speed.
I’m for it. I’m for it. I’m for it.
(I’m all for it)
When there’s a line between progress and greed,
And if we want to get caught up to speed.
(I’m all for it)
Can we breathe out new life in the air?
Send out a wave. Use this as ammunition
against the vultures that prey on the public’s addiction.
They’re creating the symptoms + cures. Use this as ammunition.
As long as I have a voice I must stay awake, I can’t lose this vision.
I’ll be right here watching the walls collapsing in.
The walls collapsing in.
And they set up the vulnerable.
This climate brings fear and intimidates
(and intimidates, and intimidates)
Set up the vulnerable. Crushing the vulnerable. Is this progress?
8. Manifest
Maybe I want to take a step.
The gold’s lost its shine but I know
through cracks and the holes there’s a shimmer below.
Hazy glimpses force me to stay.
It all becomes real the moment I say
that I’m finally willing.
The moment I say I’m open.
I’ve opened up.
When I give a little, it sure takes a lot
and it’s taking everything I’ve got.
The last straw, final effort made
to manifest what I can’t explain.
I didn’t want to believe.
Now it’s all that I can see.
The last straw, final effort made
to manifest what I can’t explain.
I didn’t want to believe.
Now it’s all that I can see.
Now open up a piece of me.
I’ve exposed myself to everything, everything
and rising up infecting me.
I’m gonna get it right.
I’m gonna let it all right in.
Someone open the gates and let me in.
The persistent grinding, now an accommodating fit.
Someone open the gate and let me in.
I’ve been looking for something, and maybe this is it.
Cause we just want to find a place in it all.
Cause we just want to find a place in it all.
Well I just want to find some space in it all.
I want to find some space in it
I want to find some space in it all.
The last straw, final effort made
to manifest what I can’t explain.
I didn’t want to believe.
Now it’s all that I can see.
The last straw, final effort made
to manifest what I can’t explain.
I didn’t want to believe.
Now it’s all that I can see.
Now it’s all that I can see.
9. Get Alone
Get alone
Get alone
Get alone
Get alone
Get alone
Get alone
Get alone
Get alone
Get alone
Get alone
Man it’s a shame. It’s a stumbling block
and it seems I’ve found the order to this sour addiction.
I’ve grown accustom to it showering me.
Switched gears but the cycle isn’t making it easy.
I was running, I was running on empty ideas,
but I had to write them down just to listen.
I’m flying over the ocean and back.
I breathe in, I breathe out.
I breathe in, I breathe out.
I breathe in.
Get alone, when the others are blinding.
Get alone, leave distraction behind me.
Get alone, where the streets are defining.
Get alone, they’re always there and reminding.
Get alone, when the others are blinding.
Get alone, leave distraction behind me.
Get alone, where the streets are defining.
Get alone, they’re always there and reminding.
Riding. Distance restore me.
I’m finding serenity in the structure.
Finding serenity on this route.
Distance restore me.
Adding up, adding up all the stakes.
Lining up, lining up and dissecting.
I’d rather address them while I
I’d rather address them while I can.
If I’m not mistaken I will
If I’m not mistaken I will
If I’m not mistaken I will
Steer it through in a graceful way.
I’ll abandon. Leave the rest behind.
The weight might not settle in time.
Man it’s a shame. It’s a stumbling block

10. Magnet Pull
It’s funny I was just thinking about
how much we used to get caught up in the clouds,
questioning each other.
And then you called and you asked me where I was today.
Just like every other.
Well, I just I know that sometimes we’re more distant than others.
It doesn’t stop
but I don’t let that hinder me.
My plan’s got longevity.
It doesn’t stop. Give it a shot.
Let me make the pitch, you choose.
We’ll dial it in just right for you.
When you see me again don’t abstain.
There’s a mighty demand.
When you see me again will you recognize?
Will we both understand there’s some kind of love allocated for us?
Let me know
Because the things you say
come together in a charming way.
Because words you choose
to say to me definitely elude to something.
I don’t want to make believe.
Steer the boat or live the fantasy.
All the better, let the magnet pull
scratch my wounds I think you’re healing me, healing me.
Because the things you say
come together in a charming way.
I don’t want to make believe.
Steer the boat or live the fantasy.
All the better, let the magnet pull
scratch my wounds I think you’re healing me, healing me.
The weight is falling down on us.
The weight is falling down on us.
When you see me again, don’t abstain.
There’s a mighty demand.
When you see me again will you recognize?
Will we both understand there’s some kind of love allocated for us.
11. Pull Back The Reins
I can’t win. I’m writing it off.
My back’s pinned to the wall.
Pull back, pull back, pull back the reins.
There’s no doubt that all the fuss has just made a mess out of me.
Pull back. Pull back. Let the cycle run its course.
Remind me again, so I can re-learn,
give me a crash course on how this works.
I know I’ve given ample advice,
but as it seems the constant struggle
has made an example of me.
Has made an example out of me.
I can’t win. I’m writing if off.
My back’s pinned to the wall.
Let it run, let the cycle run, let the cycle
Let it all run out its course.
I’m doing more harm every time I use force.
Let the cycle run out because
when it’s done there’ll be something else.
I didn’t ask for this, but I keep embracing it.
I’m gonna stay. I’m gonna stay.
This has chosen me.
I’m gonna stay. I’m gonna stay.
This has chosen me.
I’m gonna stay. I’m gonna stay.
I’m gonna stay. I’m gonna stay.
This has chosen me.
I’m gonna stay. I’m gonna stay.
I’m gonna stay. I’m gonna stay.
This has chosen me.
I’m gonna stay. I’m gonna stay.
