Those Things 03:06
We took a long time to think about the old times, they’re lingering. But I don’t wanna be that guy thinking ‘bout the old times, thinking ‘bout how cool it would be to be back there. Way too cool to care. But cool is something to be, not someone to see. I see you got a new haircut. I see you rollin’ your eyes. I really ought to keep my mouth shut or tell you to be who you wanna be, not someone to see. I don’t need to know. It seems like you’re showing the world your deleted scenes. I’m seeing so many pictures and words that I don’t need to see. Don’t need to be someone who’s always out there having fun, more fun than you can even believe. Keeping nothing discrete, got them bowing at your feet. You’re making my headache, selling yourself as something great. Illusions illuminate what the people can see, all the people agree that I don’t need to know. It seems like you’re showing the world your deleted scenes. No, I don’t need to know you can keep all those things to yourself that you want for me. You can keep all those things from me. I don’t want to see it. I don’t need those things.

The Ride 02:45
A bed of flowers cover the ground where I found sleep. 100 hours pass with the power of all my mythic dreaming. Dreaming of all those things existing in my mind. I’ll start to re-materialize. I’ll come into being. I won’t wait to ride the ride. Forget your needs, don’t let them walk along the path that leads to greed. Needing is bleeding the people dry on which you rely. I’ll start to re-materialize. I’ll come into being. I won’t wait to ride the ride. We don’t need to wait around, no, we don’t need to wait. The tide is gonna change. Will you rearrange? Will you disengage? Enter a new age.

Apart of You 03:32
Are you surprised that I’m still on the floor? I bet you thought that I’d be up now but I’m not up now. I do not advise that you open the door, wait to see who is there to see you. You are me. You are everybody. Everyone is apart of you. We all want to be the cure, so why don’t we have all we need and more? Can we call it even? Call it whatever you want to. Whatever works for all. You thought that I’d be up now, but I’m not up now. I would be surprised if you opened the door. Don’t you read? Nobody needs to see you. You are free. You can leave it all for me. Everything is a lot to do. We all want to be the cure, so why don’t we have all we need and more? Can we call it even? Call it whatever you want to. Whatever works for all. You can count on me. I can be somebody you need. You can count on me. I can be somebody who can be there for you. When you need me I will be somebody. I will be. You thought that I’d be up now, but I’m not up now. I am glad that you opened the door, the door to me, the door to see that you are me, you are everybody. Everything is apart of you.

A vanishing civilization. Canceling future vacations. Complication stills elation. Left alone at high elevation. I hear you calling for more. Sunken like a stone. A modern rhyme for alleviation. No more carbon inhalation. Excitement kills your innovation. I hear you calling for more. Sunken like a stone. I’m sinking like I’m stoned.

Tranquillife 03:47
Falling down. Believing that you’re upright. Racing ‘round. Staying on the inside of the turn. Breaking out. Oh, everyone’s so uptight. Lazing about. Staying on the outside of concern. We’ll turn a new leaf, but they won’t buy it. Wish we could find some peace & quiet. Our life could be so nice. No one can stay with you. Everyone lies. Someone will soon break through and you’ll feel alright. We’ll turn a new leaf, but they won’t buy it. Wish we could find some peace & quiet. Oh, don’t you mind me. I’m still trying to find some peace & quiet. Our life could be so nice. This tranquil life that you all lead is something I would like to lead. Maybe you’ll show me. Why don’t you show me? We’ll turn a new leaf, but they won’t buy it. Wish we could find some peace & quiet. I’m still trying to find it. I’m still trying to find some peace & quiet.

Keep all your lips sealed. Why? We fear they’re near. In spite of being believed, they still will hide any meaning. Hiding and speaking of sacred patience. Silent with sacred patience. Teach your children well. Why do something else? In spite of being believed, they still will hide any meaning. Hiding and speaking of sacred patience. Silent with sacred patience.

Unowned 03:27
Pick me up something sweet. Comb my hair, make it neat. I wanna tell you I’m under your spell, I don’t want you to go. Time’s gonna pass but I’d like it slow. Maybe you’ll see me or maybe you won’t. Some better-doing friends of mine are doing fine alone. I won’t tell you anything that I don’t want you know. But you seem like someone to keep cuz you don’t wanna be owned. Wake me up from a dream. Mix me up something sweet. I wanna tell you I’m under your spell, I don’t want you to go. Time’s gonna pass but I’d like it slow. Maybe you’ll see me or maybe you won’t. Some better-doing friends of mine are doing fine alone. I won’t tell you anything that I don’t want you know. But you seem like someone to keep cuz you don’t wanna be owned. I don’t want you to know.

Color You In 03:33
Allow me to go and break the rules. Drain the pool, leave a note on the door saying “how do you do? Do you mind if I take a little”? Oh, you probably do. Tell me all about the consequences. I’ll see ‘em through. You’ll see a new man in my shoes. He leaves no tracks on the floor and he matches my mood. The moon is a little brighter than you’re used to. Tell me all about who I am now. Oh, what’s got into me? Oh, I don’t know what to say. And who will I be now that I ain’t staying the same? And who’s getting to you now? I hope that it can be somebody you need. I’ll sing it to you and every word that I mumble is a clue. Is it the truth that a clue is an old friend? Nothing’s new. Do you feel like you’re in the middle of someone’s view? Tell me all about who I am now. Oh, what’s got into me? Oh, I don’t know what to say. And who will I be now that I ain’t staying the same? And who’s getting to you now? I hope that it can be somebody you need. Not someone like me. I’ll color you in. I’ll cover up your outsides. I’ll cover you up with what I’ll be.

What I'll Be 02:24
My current is electric, it’s flowing through the present. The present is all I’d like to see. I wonder where my time goes. Does it go out to sea? Is it frozen in snow? Maybe it’s a million miles from me. I don’t wanna see what’s up your sleeve. I don’t wanna feel like you’re tricking me. May I be this happy and half asleep. Maybe that’s just what I’ll be. I can see the silence. The color of an iris. The shadows in your eyes, they call to me. I wonder where the fire goes. Does it go with the breeze? Does it leave you alone? Leave you like the child I used to be. I don’t wanna see what’s up your sleeve. I don’t wanna feel like you’re tricking me. May I be this happy and half asleep. Maybe that’s just what I’ll be.
