Ewan's True Mental You (hidden track)
. . .


feel free to do
what we want to
feel free to do
what we want to

when we collide
the air will rise
is all that you will need it for
before you go

when the day wears you
create simple lies
when the day wears you
be simple lies

sleep well my dear
sleep well my dear
bodies in flight
bodies in flight
bodies in flight
bodies in flight

youre free to do
what we want to
feel free to do
what we want to

so then to your dreams
the air will clash
hovering in a perfect sphere
we'll watch you go

when the day wears you create
simple lies
when the day wears you be simple
lies

sleep well my dear
sleep well my dear
bodies in flight
little of no movement

you say love
i know that you mean hate for
borders of spite within love decay?

then mention in an easy disguise of
simple lies
borders of spite within love decay

bodies in flight!
bodies in flight!
bodies in flight!
bodies in flight!


. . .


You've opened the door to reason,
without invitation
Forget what you had, it's vanished -
except for the minions

But we'll scratch away to find the
ideal height

How well do you think that you know
me?
I'll tell you now, I didn't even mean it
Circumstance predicted, so they
may...

We hope that you don't remember
instructions of heaven
Cos everyone has a purpose, even
the minions

But we'll scratch away to find the
ideal height

How well do you think that you know
me?
I'll tell you now, I didn't even mean it
Circumstance depicted, so they
may...
How well do you think that you
know... ME?!
How well do you think that you know
ME?
Make it straight, go away...

Oh woah oh oh
The ideal height, the ideal...
Oh woah oh oh
The ideal height

How well do you think that you know
me?
I'll tell you now, I didn't even mean it
How well do you think that you know
me?
I'll tell you now, I didn't even mean it
Make it straight, go away
Make it straight, go away


. . .


Fix my new memory with a cold
naked stare
Chew up the words but with
thoughts beware
Fondness can escalate beyond my
repair
Chances the fiction with orchestrate
despair

Could these hands blow dry?
I can handle it again
These words collide
I can handle

Happiness is coated in a mindless
kicking
Let's fall apart, get up high and
leave

Again, these hands blow dry
I can handle it again
These words collide
I can handle

Kill your bizarre mindset, fuckhead
Sell it to the feeling concrete
brainwave castration
Kill your bizarre mindset, fuckhead
Sell it to the feeling concrete
brainwave castration

Walking backwards home with you
Walking backwards home with you
Walking backwards home with you
Walking backwards home with you


. . .


I get my drugs from God, oh yeah.
(oh yeah),
You should see the shit he's got, oh
yeah. (oh yeah)

And then it starts, a trip of a
lifetime,
Our spaceship up against yours.
A war on drugs, would surely bring…

I get my drugs from God, oh yeah.
You should see how high I go, oh
yeah. (oh yeah)

The ‘shrooms kick off, the trip of a
lifetime,
When lovers see more clearly.
I’m sure we’re on, a ride to, a day of
love and religion!

I'm drifting in a blackness of ideas,
colours, movements.
Kapow, kapow, kapow!
I'm drifting in a vacuum of ideas,
colours, movements.
Kapow, kapow!

Woo!


. . .


Don't be sad, keep smiling, leave this open to communicate
Lying there on the desk you left a letter, when I touched it, it shivered in my hand
I rub the surface to see your face in the mirror, translation lost me in a crowded room
Leave exposed the wounded, look down kids it starts to decompose
Looking for some meaning or recognition and your eyes are as blank as my hidden heart
I rub the surface to see your trace in the mirror, translation lost me in a crowded room
If you want to believe everything you say, it keeps you high and in control
What I can't understand is why you would want to give the impression of a young lost soul
In the end you lack a stance on important subjects that you've lost, it's like you're out of control
Then you turn round, my head cracks like it's for the millionth time again (Liberate the illiterate)
And you wanted to jump half a canyon, I'm at least a companion to it all (Liberate the illiterate)

. . .


I just wish we all could betray
(repeat through entire song)

I'm the one distinctly plain to you
For a solemn glance is another
rightful taste

Did you wish for your pain?
Did you wish for your pain?

Wish I could have faltered
Wish I could have changed
Wish I could have faltered
Wish I could have changed

I'm the one distinctly plain to you
For a solemn glance is another
hopeful taste

Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh

Wish I could have faltered
Wish I could have changed
Wish I could have faltered
Wish I could have changed


. . .


Grab a handle, twist it 'til something
drops
You're up when you're winning, you
feel like your head's gone soft

Even though we spend out time
without a chorus

Little twitches give him a special
edge
You can't understand it, transparent
and soft in the head

Even though we spend our time,
now here's the chorus

You've got all these great answers
to all these great questions
You've got all these great answers
to all these great questions

Take advantage of the sound
Lead to walls leading to minds

You've got all these great answers
to all these great questions
(Still I feel them passing me by)
You've got all these great answers
to all these great questions
(Still I feel them passing me by)
You've got all these great answers
to all these great questions
(Still I feel them passing me by)
You've got all these great answers
to all these great questions
(Still I feel them passing me by)

You've got all these great answers
to all these great questions
(Try to understand)
You've got all these great answers
to all these great questions
(Try to understand)
You've got all these great answers
to all these great questions
(Still I feel them passing me by)
You've got all these great answers
to all these great questions
(Still I feel them passing me by)


. . .


you are the summer
i'll feel forever
i'll bleed forever
you think you are the greatest
i'll feel forever
i'll bleed forever

think i'm feeling friendly
it's more like a mutual interest in a
nosebleed
think again

scare me now
take all the air
big idea's, think i care
take all the air

i'll bleed forever
i'll bleed forever
i'll feel forever
i'll feel forever

A-list with an alias
eradicate the doubt
eradicate the doubt
eradicate the doubt
eradicate the doubt

tackling, its a cool cold slip stream
that you will not find
caught in a high speed and full blown
seizure

scare me now
take all the air
big ideas, think i care?
take all the air

sometimes you'll dare
to become forever
and provoke the fear
inside you, awakened

take me to your heart
take me to your heart


. . .


Today's a blur, little baby
Been up for days

Waking up
Waking up

Devised a plan, little darling
To split the sky

Fade away
Fade away

The time is running out
The time is running out

We'll fade away little baby
Make no mistake
To half as much, half as much

Hmm! Ahh! Fffp!
Bup! Woo! Heh!

The time is running out
The time is running
The water's running out
The water's running
The girl is running out
The girl is running
The girl is running out
The girl

We can leave this faction and start
our own
No-one will take it over, no-one
We can leave this faction and start
our own
No-one will take it over, no-one

Start our own
Start our own
Start our own
Start our own
And show them backward to the sea

Would you change, I have, fallen in
love with you, anyway
(there's something, there's
something, there's something,
there's something, there's
something, now)

Have a dance, I will, easily, lose it,
anyway
(come dancing, come dancing, come
dancing,
come dancing, come dancing, now)

Shouty Bit!
(If you can make out what they are
saying then please mail me!)

In the shadows of your eyes,
you look like God, I will be right here
When your life's been shattered
rinse your emotion, i will be there

If even the stars, fall from your eyes
we fall back and burn in the night
reach with your mind, never
goodbye
take me away from your arms

Winter's long dead, lovely
construction,
it's all a part of you now
watching them go, your ghostly
posession,
will always posess you

In the shadows of her eyes,
you look like God, I will be right here
When your life's been shattered
rinse your emotion, i will be there

If even the stars, fall from your eyes
we fall back, they burn in the night
reach with your mind, never goodbye
take me away from your arms

Infinity lies! Save yourself!
Infinity lies! Save yourself!
Yeh!


. . .


Taking part's what counts, but you were not around,
never understand my goals for you
Looking back, seems that everyone in my life, I will be waiting for you
I will be waiting for you until the evidence conveys another side
You'll never understand my hopes for you
Sleeveless in miniature, monster overture, never be complete unless you know
Looking back, seems that everyone in my life will be waiting for me
I will be waiting for you until the evidence conveys another side
Have you found your way home? Have you found your way? I feel wondrous, controlling me seems like a good idea
I'll do my best to uphold you, but I know that in the night
Ever wonder if it's forever, the moment passes, but I feel you now
I feel wondrous and holy and I know it's all right
I'll do my best to uphold you and I know that in the night
Ever wonder if it's forever, the moment passes,
but I feel you now, all the way down
So I'll try not to breathe as I hold my head still,
the light bends on my face, there'd be tears if I cried
And I'll try not to think what the happy things were
I just think of the stuff that just made me shit scared
And I'll just close my eyes and I'll see everyone
that I'm leaving behind for the dawn of the sun
And I'll try not to feel, yes I'll try not to feel,
and I'll try not to feel on the way down

. . .


conglomerate inspection
We'll breathe out infection
Release it to the world

We'll blame it on the girls
We'll blame it on the boys
again, again, again, again

Taste the infection
and tolerate injection
and feed it to the world

We'll blame it on the girls
We'll blame it on the boys
again, again, again

then you try
your faking it
open up
your faking it

not for time, everyone
No, cant tell you know
feels like everythings a farce
taking all you have

when youre faking it
open up
your faking it


. . .


I'm cagey about stories involving time, it's like I'm slowly burning, breathing crimes
This is all right, burn the action now, tell me how you feel, burn the action now
Rotations take hold, clear but filthy cries
This is all right, burn the action now, tell me how you feel,
burn the action now...this is all right, all right
When the inner energy pollutes my soul with selfish needs
and small conspiracies unique from loyalty
And over and over and over and over and take all I have
and under and under and under and under and
Could you make it any easier so we can set this on fire
This is all I have and over and over and over and over and, take all I have
And under and under and under and under and
And over and over and over and over and take all I have to decide and all I have
We'll change the world how we want to, we'll change the world inside you
You changed the world, you changed the world,
burn the action, burn the action, burn the action now!

. . .


Can't help seeing what I have with the non stop bickering involved
Believe in what you know, no we'll never separate
Can't fail seeing what I have with the non stop bickering involved
Believe in what you know, no we'll never separate
Can't help being warm no you can't help being warm
