You can use your tongue It could be a whole lot of fun It feels so right it can't be wrong So please just use your tongue.

First you start Then you stop Cause you don't know what you've got You resume You exhume If you don't know you presume How it should be What it should do You pretend you have a clue Why it's here What it's for Is it better than before Start & Stop

Silence 07:05
lyrics

Silence steals the velvet ropes And lays the bedroom bare Silence strips your finery And shears your perfect hair Silence scatters every crowd And thrusts you in the light Silence holds you to account For every word you write Silence is a spotlight With you in its searing beam Silence is the clarity That rouses from a dream Silence is a great white wall With you the objet d'art Silence makes you all things near When all else is afar And even if it holds The greatest wisdom of an age The keenest ear can never hear A line upon a page Silence clears the heady smoke From inspiration's fire Silence is the words fell short To speak of your desire Silence is the net withdrawn To stem your fatal fall Yes, silence slips the world away To leave you all in all

Up To You 07:47
lyrics

How do I write, what I know? Should I tell, or should I show? How do I share vulnerability? There may be a possibility I'm sat here all alone I've got no love to call my own It's been this way for quite some time So I can only sing this rhyme Do I have enough, do I need more? Baring my soul, down on the floor Being honest, yes, I do But which one is it? That's up to you. I know my music, I know how I feel It really isn't a great ordeal It may sound so, but I'm not sad It's pretty nice here, in my head Do I have enough, do I need more? Baring my soul, down on the floor Being honest, yes, I do But which one is it? That's up to you. Am I as happy as can be? Not as much as if someone had me. What is it that I crave? Most of all, to be her slave. Do I have enough, do I need more? Baring my soul, down on the floor Being honest, yes, I do But which one is it? That's up to you.

Just the Same 08:27
lyrics

I put a spell on you So you'd feel , What I'm going through And now, while you stew Please know, It's something I can't undo Soon you will shine Don't fret, It's all part of the design Magic is the strangest thing that you can never learn Mythic beasts and wondrous things, fit for every yearn Through years of study I have learned to play the waiting game All to be forever known as me, I'm just the same

Melody's Plea 09:28
lyrics
buy track
My sleep cycle is all out of whack As soon as I wake up the world goes black I'm so exhausted I need a break But hold on, there's another melody I need to make When can I let my spirit carry on? How long will I keep writing this song? Is there an end anywhere in sight? No wait, it's time for the solo to shine bright Is it done? Can I go to sleep, or play? Has my song found its way? Are the listeners all satisfied? Is my rest at long last justified?

Feline Thoughts 05:30
lyrics
buy track
You were walking around, through out the night Wondering, what's wrong and right Considering, what you should break Would it seem harmless? Would it be a mistake? What's the worst that could happen? If you drop it to the floor? Would not everything be the same as before? No matter how much, damage you do They wouldn't dare stop loving you Have you heard about Schrodinger's cat? He, too, was quite the acrobat What do you think got him in that crate? Was it a misdemeanor? Or was it fate? What's the worst that could happen? If you drop it to the floor? Would not everything be the same as before? No matter how much, damage you do They wouldn't dare stop loving you Walking 'round the garden Looking at that cat Listening to tunes Would you tell me, what you think about that? Is that cat me? Is this the garden of Eve? Was I really so naive? I thought I had eight more lives I only broke their hard drives Had I known this would be the end I might've tried to pretend To be a nicer, calmer pet To not destroy, to not upset At least I'd try to offer them respect To catch them the occasional rat To behave as though I cared a smidge Without pouncing in their fridge Walking 'round the garden Looking at that cat Listening to tunes Would you tell me, what you think about that?

Drinking Song 07:33
lyrics
buy track
I haven't played a game in ages, it seems The only place I've ridden rides is in my dreams I haven't loved another in oh so long This is why I sing to you this drinking song The games keep coming, you see Rollercoasters keep coming to be The perfect woman is out there too But where? If only I knew She'd scream with me in joy on every drop We'd play every game from the shop In many ways she'd make me blush On some of those I better hush
