Boring Planet
03:37

Crowded in, you know you're going nowhere
Interested less in getting carried away
Intense investigation done, finding out it's endless down here
Life of actuaries, on this ordinary world
Under a boring sky
Knowing where to be and now you know why
Feeling any excuse just to turn around
When you've almost gone too far, finding out you'll never leave here
Life of actuaries, on this ordinary world
Under a boring sky
Now you know, you'll never leave
Now you know, you'll never believe
And you've shown you can dream
Waking up, you do it all again

We'll Sleep Again
04:15

On your way, true to behave
It'll hold you on the perfect wave
Signs to stay, unconscious days
Into mirrors lies another way, to memorize our names
Outside in the marigolds, you'll find what you're never told
A collective mind to call your own
All day, and all through the night
We'll take the ocean home
Trying out your brand new body
You want me on which coast?
Drying out your eyes with molly
On higher ground, I'll know
These dreams are winding down
Hold on to what we've been told, inside I am never sure
Watch a shadow play by fire glow
All day, and all through the night
We'll paint the ocean gold
Trying out your brand new body
You want me on which coast?
Drying out your eyes with molly
On higher ground, I'll know
These dreams are winding down forever
Against the wall, I have leaned
I have learned to hold on
When you fall, take me with you
Let me see you're not so tall
We're designed to find a way, crawl back against the tide
All day, and all through the night
We'll sleep again

Careless
03:34

Carry in, your careless words
Holding in, are you asking for more
Hiding in, your high beams
Hardly is, an unnatural ally
This has happened before and it will happen again
You've been gone for a very long time
I try to stay calm while you bury me alive
You've been gone for a very long time
On this unnatural divide
Hurry in, you're fearless now
Where you been, so absent somehow
Holding in, you're careless
Hardly is an unnatural ally
This has happened before and it will happen again
You've been gone for a very long time
I try to stay calm while you bury me alive
You've been gone for a very long time
On this unnatural divide

Night Creep
04:44

I'm inside, I'm inside this state of mind
Hard to find, final silence all the time
Holding on to sane
Don't say goodbye
I'm high and paranoid
In love with all of the angels carrying me home tonight
Am I alive or am I waiting out my time
I don't know how, I don't know why I'm
Holding on to sane
Don't say goodbye
I'm high and paranoid
In love with all of the angels carrying me home tonight
I'll find final silence in my mind
I'll find final silence all the time
I know

Parallel Signs
03:52
|

|
All in or all out, no in between
An actor for hire and I'm running to the scene
Parallel signs put on this face
Still feels unreal
All that's left to say is goodnight
Telepathic changes built the pyre
Drag out fought, just to topple our empire
Travel in time, can't keep your place
Still spin the reel
All that's left to say is goodnight
Can't help you make up your mind
All common pressures left behind
Wake up outside, I barely mind
I told you I'd be gone with the tide

Ride or Die
04:04

Line by line, focus
Nose bleeds and our bruises healing
Out of sight out of mind
Crawl inside, on the ceiling
You're my ride or die
These secrets, I won't keep
Not so fast, see we're not so polite
A cop on tiptoes outside doing rounds
We're running out of time
It's easy to see things eye to eye
Left from right, what's yours and mine
With eyes shut tight
These secrets, I won't keep
Look around, it's a shit show
Puppets pushing, shoving, stealing
Out of mind out of line
Broken ground, shadows
I'm upside down tonight
These secrets, I won't keep
Your secrets, I don't need
Don't fall asleep here
Don't fall asleep, 'cause
It's finders-keepers games here
Don't fall asleep here
Don't fall asleep, 'cause finders-keeps games
Don't fall asleep here
Don't fall asleep
Don't

Send Someone
04:34
|
|||
|
When it's time for us to go
We'll lay down, they'll let us know
All relationships we form, form formulas
And everything in this life, it was done for us
There is innocence in all we saved
Will they send someone?
Closing my eyes one more time
A total recall, nursery rhyme
And our relationships have capsized, run aground
A little light left on, no need to stick around
There is innocence in all we saved
Will they send someone?
In the interest of perseverance
With the lights out I'm not nervous
We'll lay down
They'll bury our bones in semi-haunted graves
They'll ferry our souls across the ancient waves
They'll carry our tomes all the way alone
They'll bury our bones all the way alone
Will they send someone?

This record is beautiful and moody. It defies expectations and typical strong structure; rather, it takes the listener on an enthralling journey of bold textures, imagery, and addictive melodic hooks.
