Chemistry 04:23
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

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 03:37
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 03:49
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 04:32
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 04:36
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
