Its been a long time their smiles returned The winter had bitten and spring gave its kiss Forgot all the bad It will never be missed It didn't really matter We've always known this. We've always known.

Water Towers 02:55
Piece back through time Upon that you will find me Repulsed by the sound Echoes too strongly Count off the bulbs And you drink from their stockings Trapped by the side End it the same way Mixed up the day, don't call her I'm important too, I've done the math The numbers don't curl up Next to you Put out your fires and give up on counting
3.
Soar 01:38
I want to understand Exactly who I am And when I know for sure It'll take a little more I want to know the root The stem which holds the truth Escape my body's hold My mind begins to soar Oh, my mind begins to soar

Memory Bank 02:29
One day I read a letter I'd written but thought better Then send it off Leaving it less than hard to find It sat there at the bottom A stack of books 'til autumn Unearthed again, been reading It more and more since then When you were young We taught you everything Like how to read the skies And how to fake your own demise It won't be so bad, honestly You were lost, interpret dreams That don't ever render What you mean No sense in writing formal Just try it like you're normal Don't wait around Your memory bank is safe and sound P.S. I know the ending So let's just stop pretending You may recall A regular add to bass the fall

Color Tilt 00:53
[Instrumental]
6.
I turned the dial left of its course The sound seemed to come from the north With a blur of flashing light The signals seemed to come out from the sky Do the signals come at night Do the signals come inside With a hand filled with hot coal It kept me up, all night long The words seemed to come from the calm Looking out with burning palms
7.
When I think of the days and the things that have past I can't help but feel kind of sad Here I'm standing now and they're slipping away All those golden years That seemed like child's play Well, you know what you have to do Create the things you want to see The world keeps changing From the bottom down And that time short With its map pristine There was a clever place But not a shade between And there was a sense That I hadn't found There was a space within That I could not ground
8.
Stalemate 02:59
All we ever talked about was the rain Until it became, a single refrain A chorus together we sang to wash away, the day More and more it keeps me up through the night, stale summer light Its painfully bright, burning behind your eyes and turning right toward mine You cave into them now You don't expect them by My oh my, take me back to when It all came easier, I'm yours I don't wanna wrangle, you're not very kindly, now
