Everyone is compromised, everything is fucked This childish playground episode’s about to deconstruct Creativity defined by how fast you can copy Every other inbred sound from every other city

Undertow 03:39
Hey there young man, where’s your ambition gone? The shine has left your eyes just like your friends from back home So much you dreamt up and dealt with has died or been left behind So take heart from this and eradicate past from conscience We’ll drown your sorrow in the light of our hearts Sketches on notebooks drawn in present and future tense The pages may yellow and fold and burn But memories stay with us anyway You’re just like your old friends once full of hope and control But the easy things for you were hard for them, can’t drive, no life Are you who you are, or are you who you were? Have we really changed that much? Aren’t we really just mimicking real life? Sketches on notebooks drawn in present and future tense The pages may yellow and fold and burn But memories stay with us anyway Frozen like life beneath the ice, some sit in hibernation Only to wake in better times, and make for curious conversation I’ll ride like Isaac through the sea to your ship that’s sinking, being torn apart over the reef I’ll save every single one of you I swear and bring you safely back to feel the sand beneath your feet I’ll light a fire on the coast big enough to keep you all warm, and watch over you while you sleep You are my family, just please don’t leave I’ll build a tower with my own bones, high above the storms and the cold white snow I’ll catch your food with my own teeth, warm your soul and relieve your grief You are my whole life, without you I can’t breathe You are my family, just please don’t leave

Sutures 03:31
We’re pulling hope apart, tearing at sutures and seams Lifting out mountains, our futures and dreams War and petrol tanks, guns and efficiencies A melanoma of a human race, just another cancer to spit in our face Cross border politics in the name of the cross In the name of a corporation, incorporating companies of lust It outweighs the good more times than I’d prefer I think I might Bon Iver in a cabin in the forest Somewhere news can’t find me, what shall we say when We can’t exclaim “Oh dear God” It has never been a part of me to think that what I’ve got Is anything but pure chance, and maybe hard work Those that make the biggest decisions have probably had some hard days too But does that justify them? What do the rings in your bark have to do with how hard you bite? And how much longer then are you cut? These saplings are not healthy, they do not get the sun they deserve. Or nurturing good soil. What resolution is there for us? Just wait for more floods? What will it cost to save us? There isn’t a price I’m not willing to pay. Burn the bark, let’s bite back! Burn the bark and bite back.

What the fuck does consolidation mean anyway? You want me to become more than one man? Consolidate myself with the facts you give me, everything I’ve ever done right is surely shadowed by those things I get wrong. Is this a fucking test? A game I somehow don’t know how to play, rules never taught to me on some blurry day If there aren’t any rules, and this isn’t a test – I’ll keep myself suppressed, I’ll give it my best. Just show me the reason for your words, one thing wrong repeated over and over. Don’t worry, I’m always the bad guy, always stops just in time for me to be the guilty party. In the words of fear, ‘everything will not be made right’. What’s left to stand for, to burn for, what’s worth the fight? Certainly not a resurrection Within the company, who do we work for, Umbrella? Turn me into your zombie, you bet I’ll follow you forever! I’m not this fucking consolidation of culture, if that’s what you’ll call it. You can’t dress your problems up in a little black dress. The cocktails don’t hide the wolves tails.
