Closer to Brahma

And when the shore was out of sight, well, we just took the wrong turn.
And we all thought there’d be something special to this, closer to Brahma.
It’s all new for the whole crew, it’s all new and so bizarre.
All of this is, all of this is, all of this is until you try.
We’ve seen the dark side of the truth and all their tricks’ amenities.
Gotta to slow down, maybe fly but they are speaking too fast.
Come on, we’ve got to fly, become some entity.
It’s all new for the whole crew, it’s all new and so bizarre.
Nothing is true, nothing is true, nothing is true until you die.
What are you gonna do when I’m cold and gone?
Who will pass the word there’s something wrong?
With all my senses gone, what am I do to with my spawn.
I do know where I’m bound: ain’t it something?
Ain’t it something wrong?

I lied all the time
02:44
|
|||
|
Years have passed and nothing’s changed. I know.
Who’s in between the bold and the brave?
There’s so much to save, we can’t feel the heave anymore.
I lied all the time. I didn’t need a reason why.
It’s harder to deny it. No guilt let me decide.
Does it mean much to me? Do you care for a winter spree?
(I know what you feel).
I brought you here, easy as pie. I’d got the dough…soon got your back.
It is simple to display a smile. Well, I lied all the time.
Does it mean much to me?
Do you care for a winter spree?
Oh mind you, oh my dear. That silly sun is on the line.
Oh mind you, oh my dear. Do be quiet.

It was such a surprise for me and you.
You hid your filthy files: there’s nothing new.
You’re just stuck in the mud and soon they’re starting the talking about you.
What about letting us through and toss us some bells?
We have given you time to admit the fail.
You know it’s not so hard to add 2 and 8.
You tiptoed all around, it’s all ridicule.
I guess it could pass us as little fools.
No more faceless crap, everybody they’re talking about you.
What about letting us through and toss us some bells?
Will I go to hell for my thoughts?
I could make real friends with you devil.
I’m on my hands and knees while you walk away.
I need my own peace, now let me bark away.

Good news!
03:19

I’ve heard nothing but good news today: everything is falling apart.
Everything is falling.
I’ve heard nothing but good news today.
It’s all over,
It’s all over.
I’ve heard nothing but good news today: everything is falling apart.
Everything is falling.
Nothing, nothing, nothing: that’s what I heard.
I’ve heard nothing but good news today.
It’s all over,
It’s all over.
I’ve heard nothing but good news today: everything is falling apart.
Everything is falling.
That’s what I heard.

Out
04:44
|
|||
|
Can you tell me why I’m here? My memories have wasted away.
It’s happening real soon, I hear a boom in reverse.
And I’m just trying to find a way (out),
And I’m just trying to find a way (out).
I fear for my life and I fear for my guts. They’ll be exposed on your balconies. I’ll bring daisies.
Go back in time: I know where you needed me.
And I’m just trying to find a way (out),
And I’m just trying to find a way (out).
Let me just add one more thing: 'la la la'...

You offered me setbacks, all at once. I could use a quick trip to the stars
Discipline and self-esteem ain’t what I’m looking for.
How can I just turn my back and leave another chore?
Anything I do could ever last. Should I buy a ticket for the past?
Discipline and self-esteem ain’t what I’m looking for.
How can I just turn my back and leave another chore?
(starting now)
Never knew the best way to the sun. I’ve always closed my eyes next to the light.
Discipline and self-esteem ain’t what I’m looking for.
How can I just turn my back and leave another chore?
I’m not quite proud of the way I’ve handled things (oh my...).
‘You get what you choose’: that is something I've doubted ;)

Well, do you know how much you bored me?
The only time we’d meet, you’d beat concrete.
And I know nothing on your whereabouts; you traced my own and tapped my phone.
Decerebration
I've got no trend
Secondhand
I've got no trend at all.
I wanna know how it ends and if you want to go, just clap your fangs.
That’s fine, too.
Well, I’m allowed to wet my pillow and if you think we’re bound, we’ll need a few pounds.
You appear so unselfish. With your amber smile, you know who to dial.
Decerebration
I've got no trend.
Ha ha ha ha ha
I couldn’t stand your touch.
As bright as it looks, it doesn’t mean so much
Yeah?
Now you’ve seen all you wanted to see, as bright as it looks.
Now you think you took us in your stride. Sure, it doesn’t mean much.

Let you down
03:13
|
|||
|
I am sorry I let you down. Wanted to keep you safe and sound.
I used my time just waiting around.
Time to find yourself a new love,
Time to find yourself a new love.
I am sorry but I won’t let go. We are so tied, now aren’t we bro?
Maybe messed up from the get-go. The anger will eventually grow
Time to find yourself a new goal,
Time to find yourself a new goal.
I've been looking for the best place and a way to settle down
It’s time to let go.
Find a place to settle down.

Song 9 (A letter)
03:48
|
|||
|
I’m fine most of the time but I miss the salty waters.
Don’t blame me, I’m not too keen on sharing my hideous shots.
Hope it’s not too lame for me to write a letter; something’s slipped in.
I guess it’s OK to feel unprotected.
You already know.
I care most of the time but I’ve known backfires.
Loan me one or two rages and I’ll be on your app.
Hope it’s not too late for me to write this letter; something’s slipped in.
I guess it’s alright to feel unprotected.
You already know.
I was hoping you’d call (don’t hew!): you thought I’d do the same.
I really need the talk - I favour anyone.
It’s tasted a bit too bitter and I want to go home.

Northwest
03:14
|
|||
|
My fate is prying at my door; I don’t want to glisten anymore
It’s tearing me apart; it’s making me a devil. I've got to choose sides.
I’m going Northwest.
The sun won’t shine for ever, the leaves won’t fall for ever, but I’ll stay here.
Underneath the moon or underneath Saturn 4, I saw a great many disasters.
I’m going Northwest
Stars, please show me the way, and reveal my emotions, they’ve been waiting for years.
Part of me will run away, go to some lame destination, the rest is to be scattered.
Simply, I’m going Northwest.

I don't want that leash
02:40
|
|||
|
I’ll float wherever I want. My flapping ears detect the tiniest waves that men have sent for ages. And I can smell weird particles.
Why would you try to keep me inside, away from my freedom?
I could spend days licking my stomach, it really soothes the mood.
I know I’m not the first beagle in space. I’ll be the first to fly away (it’s not so hard to do).
I don’t want that leash binding me to you.
I lead the world, capeesh?
I know you feel that, too.
I really aim for another stratosphere. Follow me through the dark.
And if I bark, it’s only to guide you, you, brainless fools.
Believe me, I can do that, too.

We might as well flee
03:27
|

|
There was a season, the captors went off. Everyone had come to the board.
So, I thought: you won’t ever be hurt, ever. Ever. There’s no need for a second chance
Then damage control had failed and the team started to tweet.
Now Brahma’s no help, there is no one to meet. I could have retrieved the lost ones…I couldn’t get the nerve.
“seven-seven-o”...we might as well flee into space
You won’t ever be heard. Ever. There’s no need for a second chance
The oxygen tank is low, so low.
And we have done nothing,
We have seen nothing,
We expect nothing.
