lyrics
You are floating in the dead the dead of night And your walking And your talking And you don’t know what to say or what to do You think you found it Be fortunate its something you can hold on to Its something you can tell is new Im telling you I am tellin you I I am tellin you When ya wanna, when ya wanna loose you Close ya eyes and close them and youll see that Youll see it through – Ba Dah Bah Bah Bum Bum As we sit and wait on the bend On the boulevard here for my friends Solo’ly and silently ill sit and wait Cherish and know he wont stay Because theif in the night He’ll steal your heart Toxic dreams play from the start Pull the veil down If you dare Close your eyes youll find you there I am tellin you I I am tellin you When ya wanna, when ya wanna loose you Close ya eyes and close them and youll see that Youll see it through – Ba Dah Bah Bah Bum Bum I am tellin you I I am tellin you When ya wanna, when ya wanna loose you Close ya eyes and close them and youll see that Youll see it through – Ba Dah Bah Bah Bum Bum

lyrics
This terror inside me Its like I am bleeding But I aint even skin deep So whats to become of me A fine line disturbance From the depths of she Its like I need to hide When will this coincide There seems to be no Shadows to my darkest sides There seems to be no Peace between these sheets I got my glow stars at least When will I rest When will I lay my head When will this terror drift into a comatose of sudafeds A trick A switch A click A flick, thats all this is All this is , thats all this is Jump up here Into third person with me Lets analyse it Let your mind run free The red or the blue Which will you choose Think about it Because youve got nothing to loose This negative energy will only multiply So open up your eyes Cuz what you feed will grow and Starve the bitch make her feel hunger Starve the bitch make her feel pain Youll never feel again Suffocate it all again Youll never feel again, again now When will I rest When will I lay my head When will this terror drift into a comatose of sudafeds A trick A switch A click A flick, thats all this is All this is , thats all this is

lyrics
Im running down the stairs now Trying to figure it all out Im running down the stairs now With my hair down Im not feelin proud Im running for big doors now My dreams are out and loud and sound Will I still fall down , im yet to feel it all Now Im running to big blue now I don’t care what ya think is true Im not gonna stop Im not gonna hold it down I don’t see the top I had a rock on my ankle its true Unintentionally Drowing into the blue Took my final breathe Knew it woudnt last Closed my eyes sinked down Revisted the past and Ive hit rock bottom It aint so bad Ive hit rock bottom It aint so bad Ive hit rock bottom It aint so bad, Look around you Why are you, sad Im running to horizons now Gotta put my shades right down Because Its so bright now Its so bright now Im gonna run the other way Clouds are drowning my day Is the grass really greener on the other side Is there really one shade of green Is there green in your life When youre laying there all paralysed Please Follow me, Let me show ya the green All the shades of green to be Ive hit rock bottom It aint so bad Ive hit rock bottom It aint so bad Ive hit rock bottom It aint so bad, Look around you Why are you, sad I know you know you think I cant do it But i can do anything Ive hit rock bottom It aint so bad Ive hit rock bottom It aint so bad Ive hit rock bottom It aint so bad, Look around you Why are you, sad

lyrics
I clearly see That slimy devil on my shoulder Ive fuelled him For 24 odd years or so A toxic landmine I aint willing to chase What happened next I noticed something quite peculiar The air around you, tasted differently Addicted too Your eyes, your smiles, your insides I know Exactly what my heart and mind say I feel These intuitions everyday Empathically I trained myself another way Just by taming the devil Ya wont make yourself level Niave and truly blind Loose your feet Loose track of time Im not looking For love or something like devotion Im not looking To be your everything Cuz I know Theres something buried deep within Just by taming the devil Ya wont make yourself level Naive and truly blind Loose your feet Loose track of time Just by taming the devil Ya wont make yourself level Naive and truly blind Loose your feet Loose track of time Just by taming the devil Ya wont make yourself level Naive and truly blind Loose your feet Loose track of time Easy to think that Youd sit there and think In harmony When youve got it wrong Easy to think that Youd sit there and think In harmony When youve got it wrong Its easy to think that When youve got it wrong You havnt got it going on

06. Real Monsters 03:59
lyrics
Its been three years since you spoke to me Im still waiting on your apology I hope it never comes through You seem so confused If you looked in the mirror the answers would appear Its easier said than done, sometimes the biggest demon is the one in front The one thats starring back at you, and in the light of day its ya shadow too Its your shadow too, cuz in the light of day its your shadow too You can run and hide With your Words and lies Your religion and Your stepford wife Hide and hide away for the rest of today The truth will come out someday Because youll never, Never be a man to me. You prefer too bask and down your self in lies, Whatever helps you sleep at night, Because youll never, Never be a man to me You prefer to bask and drown ya self in lies Whatever helps you sleep at night-hi-ight Did you know, Theres people hiding the streets Because of people just like you, Causing the world grief Now im not talkin bout that Bonny and Clyde Im takin about that other type Because the real monsters in our life walk freely They walk freely, yeh they walk freely I said the real monsters in our life they walk freely they walkin talkin freely You can run and hide With your Words and lies Your religion and Your stepford wife Hide and hide away for the rest of today The truth will come out someday Because youll never, Never be a man to me. You prefer too bask and down yourself in lies, Whatever helps you sleep at night, Because youll never, Never be a man to me You prefer to bask and down ya self in lies Whatever helps you sleep at night-hi-ight

07. Spoken Word "Learning to Exhale" **BONUS TRACK** 02:59
lyrics
You wander aimlessly But are you really wandering? You contemplate You hit a point where the circles The loops That triggers that fuel your mind Are fuelling your being in time Your fuel Your drive Is poisoned We are poisoned We are programmed Into the poison Lets rid ourself Of this pollution Its simple Do the steps with me Close your eyes Lets wander now Wander, the way we are meant to be Because if life Is of learning Knowledge Memories And the journey Then heaven Is on earth Before us We are here for the burdens The twists and turns Its rising and fall You realise Whats really behind your eyes Your being Is your mind You hold the controller It is now time to flip it over Ditch what you feel What are you propelled to do And chase Feed And grow Into something new Change is not a crime Change is what we need to crave Through time The steps are simple Simplify Gratitude Balance Let go Its all what you choose Nothing to do with what Ive said What you’ve read Deliberate distraction By way of spontaneous movement Will arrest the flow Of negative thoughts be perpetually present do not selectively summon the pollution the poison rise above this wasteland Summon plentiful mindfulness Your light Your flame Like a firefly Youll shine If you do so Its contagious I promise Its worthwhile All in good time For what you feed will grow Its time to clean it up Plan A well thought outcome What you eat What you see What you hear What you focus and dream What are truly feeding on ? Breathe in with me now Deeper in Deeper out Trust it is coming Chip away At a better you each and every day Your time Is simply now
