Dread 05:03
Wait, I'm a severed day here The colors in my hands now Are fighting like animals today Somehow they always end back with the secret teeth I have You walk in dreams of oceans breathe and then single out your mind It's smoke that I feed on where are you fire? Wait, oh, when your mind's zeroed it makes me tired The fear of not, not knowing when or if I'll last Oh give up one, one last breath I swear I won't Follow you around You look so strong from way down here Wait, I'm a severed day here And there will be a use for this in the many years you'll see A thousand years is long enough for you to fall into my teeth

Holy Grass 05:28
Can I go where there is an ocean floor? Anchored to every mind like mine is? Oh how it looks from way out at this elevation When everything my mind sees is a landslide You try to escape my lungs and my teeth, I'm not wasting light Gunned down by day so we crash through tired I'm not that young I lie wide-eyed and bear I'm listening for now I dream like days we haven't seen yet The sky is full of things that bring us passage Dwelling happily in things as they are We'll meet the laws of gravity And run fresh water over Our mouths and claws and scream over ocean This is where I'm building my new lungs and coloring my mind For all the days that I've spent half asleep, I never changed my face A love of fate that carries me out beyond the last days So I can see forever out into space, dark and ancient And bite down hard on written wisdom of overmen An unrelenting refusal to wander off the earth

New Teeth 04:00
Finish off this old body for an absolute Feeling like I know now why I wrestle Who lay down my feet and help me grow new teeth? Travel on my evil these are not your legs To stand in front of me I will not follow My footsteps are my own you may not have them To stand behind me I will not lead Look to see the man I was meant to be Fighting only myself I'm crashing my way in May your convictions breathe and not disappear May you come through to know your boldest claims Live to find you will not be erased
4.
Skepticism 05:37
Sun break Take my eyes whole Feed like you know my name now It's my body my blood Feed like no one's buying Calluses are flesh Feed like it's decay Say that you will take it despite of all that claim it I won't give in See the life you're making, the kind that refuse to take it I won't give up this start Sun breathes in my face Calumets bring my fate now What was that you said? Seems like you're ok now Wanting them to take my hands Waking up my amen I feel I've been you before Far away, give myself over to new days of strength What is that for? Days in your room Feeling so strange Wearing you out

Tail Bitten 03:21
If only for your sanity Don't fight like hell Let yourself let you go You're not alone I too have been here before Don't fight like hell You may not win
6.
Meanwhile 05:50
I put X's over your eyes but you came back to life Now I've been an ice age wielding a thousand year light Born into bare hands Leaving the maze I don't know I don't know if they're alright or who is inside Looking back in amazement while exploding with all colors And wanting to be there every time you lose your mind We're wondering if you'll stay there We're walking against the built-in life You're counting up things that you haven't got We're wondering how you will ever stop You're counting on rapture or divinity And nothing around me can hold that tight We're wondering when you'll see your name Echoing against words etched in time We're counting on nothing but your life We're wondering vaguely if you'll sleep I've already met the old lies
7.
Wool Fingers 06:08
The sounds I made when I was afraid For when lies are unraveling I can't lie unharmed forever The many undecided coming years Like a seed ripped apart In the wool of youth, I'll spring up And stretch out toward the surface Pulling in all decay for itself A revolving loop of youth Nothing but warm earth above us For all that are here And all who come again
8.
Nym 05:15
You are the day coloring smoke Walking on spiders, fighting You are my face I worship your womb Gallons of space in tunnels under your skin Trying to coax me in so you won't be estranged Effortless change in hanging upside down Let me offer my breath, my grime, my light Hey daylight I am the universe And all my dreams are colored in by your eyes I may grow to look just like you and walk in your rivers I want to live by the earth and cry upon birth
9.
Glow Worm 02:16
Fade in and out Fade like them Time goes in and opens my side May I run now?

Monism 05:39
