Alright 04:06
LYRICS: Safe and sound in our underground where we talk about clockwork. As the sun goes down the cities drown in bright golden township lights. Like battleships in foreign fights, we will fall and ignite. We ignite. Just hear me out when I say that everything will be alright. Hold your breath when I hold you. Everything is alright, it's alright. Gears will grind, something's happening inside your mind the wind that's here to stay. Like battleships in foreign fights, we will fall and ignite. We ignite. Just hear me out when I say that everything will be alright. Hold your breath when I hold you. Everything's alright, it's alright. We will fall. We ignite. It's alright. It's alright. It's alright. Just hear me out when I say that everything will be alright. Hold your breath when I hold you. Everything is alright, it's alright.

LYRICS: It started pouring inside my head where I regret words that I left unspoken. All that's changed defeated this town. You'll see the faces all staring blankly. The bowling alley where The Beatles played is now the fancy neighbourhood. All the stories of stone that towered before me had no happy end. It all just weighs me down, 'cause they're changing everything right where I am. I found the old gas station resting 6 feet underground right where I am. We took over retired concrete with grinding wheels. No cut would ever feel like this. Summer's heat and winter's falling snow. I've spent my days here. Will I ever go? The salad days might mean more to me than anyone or anything. It all just weighs me down, 'cause they're changing everything right where I am. I found the old gas station resting 6 feet underground right where I am. It all just weighs me down, 'cause they're changing everything right where I am. I found the old gas station resting 6 feet underground right where I am. I watched every morning turn into dusk right where I am.

Circles 03:34
LYRICS: If fairy tales exist I am living with monsters. The ones I am so scared of, living in my closet. They changed faces over years, but yours seemed so sincere. Always look on the bright side of every day. I've been changing directions. Been doing okay. Sit still and wait for me, cause I'm trying to keep up. I know I have to let you go, but now I know is that I can't roam alone around in cirlces. I tried to understand the way that things bend. Why do I refuse to see the green grass beneath me. Always look on the bright side of every day. I've been changing directions. Been doing okay. Sit still and wait for me, cause I'm trying to keep up. I know I have to let you go, but now I know is that I can't roam alone around in cirlces. Sit still and wait for me, cause I'm trying to keep up. I know I have to let you go, but now I know is that I can't roam alone around in cirlces. Sit still and wait for me. (around in circles) Sit still and wait for me. (around in circles) I know I have to let you go, but now I know is that I can't. I know I have to let you go, but now I know is that I can't roam alone around in cirlces.

Please 03:32
LYRICS: Forged the thickest armour. Lodged it in my bones so I won't break again. You got up and ran away into the sunset. Am I here to stay? Ignite the brightest fire from the driest woods so I feel warm again. They have never been as cold as me. It's when I got up and ran. Am I here to stray? Hold me. Love me. Save me. Please. Hold me. Love me. Save me. Please. Forever seemed the longest, but it ended way too soon. Have we all forgotten or did I just assume you'd do this all for me. Hold me. Love me. Save me. Please. Hold me. Love me. Save me. Please.
