Unsure of your identity
Uncertain of your culture
Caught between the high tech and the primal
Their patterns of behaviour
Inflexible in their nature
The kings and their advisors
The cautious and the warriors
Their inclinations cause alienation
Perpetuation of formulae
The battle's uphill but you must fight still
Life's not construction
It's the subtly of chemistry
Meteor storms bombarding
The surface of this planet
Don't let this be your personal mass extinction
Their patterns of aggression
Preach stereotype behaviour
Just let evolution
Leave them in its slipstream
Their inclinations cause alienation
Perpetuation of formulae
The battle's uphill but you must fight still
Life's not construction
It's the subtly of chemistry
DNA is not a blueprint
DNA's not architecture
Unsure of your identity
Uncertain of your culture
Caught between the high tech and the primal
Their inclinations cause alienation
Perpetuation of formulae
The battle's uphill but you must fight still
Life's not construction
It's chemistry
Their inclinations cause alienation
Perpetuation of formulae
The battle's uphill but you must fight still
Life's not construction
It's the subtly of chemistry
DNA is not a blueprint
DNA's not architecture
Not architecture

Comparatively

It's not right
It's not right
To fall apart so easily
Comparatively
We have much more than those
Who've gone before
We never know our fortune
We see it
We feel it
The time slips through our fingertips
Comparatively
At least we have that luxury
We have the energy to know it
It's all right
It's all right
To fall apart just sometimes
Comparatively
The grass is lush and green
Across the way
But that is all in your mind
We see it
We feel it
The time slips through our fingertips
Comparatively
At least we have that luxury
We have the energy to know it
Comparatively
We have much more than those who've
Comparatively
We have much more than those who've
Comparatively
We have much more than those
Who've gone before
But that is all in your mind

Oblivious

Undone by transparency
You can always see right through me
Cold as ice
From your eyes
Working you out ain't so easy
Long are the sleepless roads that I roam
Hoping I'll crack your code
When will you will you start seeing
When will you will you start feeling
When will you will you start seeing
It's so obvious
You're oblivious
Confident, intellectual
Which of these do you respond to?
Have I sufficient in my system
To get closer to you?
Long are the sleepless nights that go by
Hoping you'll open your eyes
When will you will you start seeing
When will you will you start feeling
When will you will you start seeing
When will you will you start feeling
When will you will you start seeing
When will you will you start feeling
When will you will you start seeing
It's so obvious
You're oblivious
It's so obvious
You're oblivious
Long are the sleepless nights that go by
Hoping you'll open your eyes
When will you will you start seeing
When will you will you start feeling
When will you will you start seeing
When will you will you start feeling
When will you will you start seeing
When will you will you start feeling
When will you will you start seeing
It's so obvious
You're oblivious
It's so obvious
You're oblivious
You're so devious
I'm ingenuous

Symbiotic

Are we symbiotic
Sympathetic
Am I the only one that gets it
Is it all illusion
Childish delusion
To lighten the weight of this world
Are we lead and rhythm
Flotsam and jetsam
The answer to an unspoken question
Are you yang to my yin
Are you just past caring
We'll ever be more than we are now
Don't say that it's so
Don't say that it's so
Don't say that it's so
I can't let go
Are we symbiotic
Are you apathetic
To the possibility to progress this
Am I fooling myself
To offer my help
In getting you through all life throws at you
Are you yang to my yin
Are you just past caring
We'll ever have more than we have now
Don't say that it's so
Don't say that it's so
Don't say that it's so
I can't let go
Don't say that it's so
Don't say that it's so
Don't say that it's so
I can't let go
And I miss you so

Earthbound

Take your pure white dreams and
Add a sense of realism
Then watch all you take for granted
Fade away to dust
You're as fragile as the rest
Just as prone to make mistakes
But I know you won't
Because I know you'll never fall
Despite what
You might think
You are earthbound
Just like everyone
Despite what
You might think
You'll be earthbound
When it all goes wrong
Take your pastel shades and
Add a sense of cynicism
Then you'll see the world that
Most of us know very well
Life's not as perfect as you think
But who am I to put you right
When you're solar source
Within the system that you rule
Despite what
You might think
You are earthbound
Just like everyone
Despite what
You might think
You'll be earthbound
When it all goes wrong
Despite what
You might think
You are earthbound
Just like everyone
Despite what
You might think
You'll be earthbound
When it all goes wrong

Serotonin

I was waiting for the storm to break
In an ocean punctured by snake-tongue lightning
Layers of fossils underneath the surface
Marking aeons thicker than the unreachable depths within your mind
Leather wings pierce the marbled sky
V's in funeral black signify no way back
Too few lifeboats to cope with all transmissions
From the water teeming with the drowning and the overwhelmed
When it seems as though I'll never win
Polar light growing fainter
When the doubts they permeate my skin
Be my serotonin
Thought that I could navigate the planet
Before being overcome by equilibrium
Instead I'm drifting closer to the threshold
Will I plunge into space in a universe that science has turned its back upon
When it seems as though I'll never win
Polar light growing fainter
When the doubts they permeate my skin
Be my serotonin
Be my serotonin
Even in the grip of uncertainty
I know that you can be the polar light for me
Even in the downward slide to insanity
When it seems as though I'll never win
Polar light growing fainter
When the doubts they permeate my skin
When it seems as though I'll never win
Polar light growing fainter
When the doubts they permeate my skin
