Alice 03:08
Wait, a little more for me I can find you on horizons, before you co out to sea to fast, to make any kind of sense I could cover you in honey before you catch up to me now La La La Too many things you never understand like why do caterpillars spin cocoons come back as butterflies as profound as it is when you try to sit around and question the reasons why we die it's not impressive it's just PESSEMISTIC Alice, what were we to do? No-one could be as good as you people are like opium that's a certain fact of science and I'm sure, that given some time, we would have figured it all out La La La La

Quit 02:50
Waking up in a sweat, full of regret, what did I do last night again, you're in my head, gotta pretend it didn't happen This is nothing to do with my addiction to you Someone tell me to QUIT this habit is something I have got to kick just one more hit I want you more than I'll admit This is nothing to do with my addiction to you You're all that I see, but you're so bad for me Lying flat on the floor, heart is sore what the fuck is it all for looking for more wanting more, more, more, MORE This is nothing to do with my addiction to you.

Holiday 04:20
I'm on a Holiday, I wanna getaway I saw an ad for trans con time travelling the risks are very few and just look at the view from this hotel room in 1819 Oh no it isn't cheap, invite the family we'll get a discount for a bigger group you see why isn't this sublime the weather sure is fine right here in sunny '69 Ever wanted to see Woodstock just get into this time pod no, you've never heard real music until you been there Oh nothing is as sweet never felt so complete than when I saw the turn of the Century celebrate New Years Eve in 1933 charge it to your credit card and you'll be drinking champagne in a jazz club tell all your friends that you met Satchmo no, you've never seen Chicago, til' prohibition Space Helmets on a Camel Ride

Ghost 04:55
I just can't make up my mind about anything dive into the precipice and go sailing there's angels and Gods that hide in these spaces but I don't know their names and I cant see their faces I know that you're holding your arms out to catch me but I'm falling I'm falling I don't stand the Ghost of a chance when all that matters is all in your hands I don't stand the ghost of a chance and it's too late now it's too late now Every hour that swings by in these catacombs I'm surrounded by every unused and latent thought there's angels and Gods that hide in these spaces but I'm not really sure if I know where that place is I know that you're holding your arm out to catch me but I'm falling I'm falling You should know the truth about me.

Someday 03:24
Come back to me Come back to me, before too long Come back to me, come back it won't be the same I've got too many things too many things in my room now come back to me come back, I swear that I've changed I'll get away, Someday Come back to me come back and it will be better I don't care I won't listen to anything and everything they say I've got too many things too many things I have to tell you come back to me come back and start over again I'll get away someday

about

Wonder and wander in the innocence of imagination. Space helmets on a camel ride, in fantasy, try to hide. Corrupted minds, the adult kind, childhood that's left behind. Do you dream awake at night? Know that it'll be alright. Don't grow up in a hurry... I'm holding you, don't worry.
