Dastardly 04:09
Maybe it’s only ever right when I see you / She’s dastardly / Maybe she’s the reason that I do the things I do / She’s dastardly / And I know I’ll fight until the fire starts burning / She’s a nasty piece of work mate you’re caught up she’s dastardly / And I know, nothing can stop me from wanting / She’s a nasty piece of work mate you’re caught up she’s dastardly Listen up friend of mine you need a wake up call / Hitching your cart to a bitch that will break your balls / Can't you see? She's a siren in pantyhose / Black heart pumps poison through veins under scanty clothes / In her wake - the dried husks of exes / Maxed out their funds, and then runs, to the next hit / Relentless, remorseless her corpses she stacks up / Defiled by deception, confounded and cracked up / Spinning her web the blackest of widows / Clouding your mind with her shadowy riddles But I just can’t let that feeling go / You think it’s so my man you just don’t know [CHORUS} She's leading a merry dance pulling your puppet strings / Picking your pockets while dangling promises / Little sex kitten, with claws to leave you scarred / Mate you should listen, cos she'll break your freakin heart / Won't give you a second thought, c-c-c-cold as a witches tit / Save yourself call it off, son you're well out of it / Can't sit and watch, while shes circling her prey / Your spellbound and lost, like a moth to the candle flame / calling you in, feeding the flames, fanning the fire and calling your name [CHORUS]

Burn 04:21
Find the embers in your soul / Start to blow till the flames take hold / If you're free you cant be sold / Let it go till THE stories told / Inferno, volcano / Incinerate the same old same old / Be the phoenix, human torch / Fingertips leave buildings scorched / Let it go light the fuse / Wildfire is RUNNING loose / Blaze a new trail, yours to choose / Stomp the Earth IN burning shoes / Step forward, cities razed / Horizon hides inside the heat haze / APOCALYPTIC, feeL the flames / feel the heat and heed the name We will burn, we will burn / ‘til the fire dies out / We will burn, we will burn / when there’s nothing left, there’s nothing left / We will burn, we will burn / ‘til the fire dies out / We will burn, we will burn, WE WILL BURN We won't stop perpetual motion / Simmer in a shimmering sunset ocean  Feel the hiss as Worlds collide / Bring to the boil this crimson tide / Each of us is energised / Heat the air till beacons rise / Spread the message light the skies / Let the reach go far and wide / Reawaken dormant souls / burn the shackles, break the mould / IGNORE THE LIES THAT YOU’VE BEEN TOLD / ignite the fire you've let go cold / They can't extinguish whats inside / Let your own heat be your guide / LIKE Searing shooting stars INTO THE SKY YOU SEE we fly [CHORUS]
3.
If you want to be free, spread your wings, now, forever / Be yourself, no DISGUISE, noone else can do you better / Speak the truth, make it sing, every word, every letter / Show your soul, MAKE it shine, that is who they’ll see Don’t fake your soul (REPEAT) Live a lie, fantasise, sow the seeds for stormy weather / Build a wall, bound to fall, all your ties will be severed / Fake ID for honesty, sell your soul, the price for pleasure / Hollow smile, hurt inside, that is all we’LL see [CHORUS] Hey surprise! / We can see through the lies / That cloak made of bull crap's attracting the flies / And each and every word that slips your lips / Burns a hole in the hull of your sinking ship / You think you're slick, in fact you're just greasy / Dripping rotten apple hanging from a diseased tree / Please be silent, stop your LIPS jabbering / Your droopy web of lies is swiftly unravelling / You're just blathering, more hot air than a zeppelin / Hindenbergs burning bones poking out of metal skin / Your stocks plummeting, Nasdaq in the nad sack / A WITHERED puppeteer fist working a sad sack / And that's that - you fake your soul and people know / It turns them off quicker than a clicked remote control / You preen and pose in your emperors clothes / Blatantly exposed as your fakery grows [CHORUS]

No Shame 04:22
Welcome to the existential rollercoaster / You’re sometimes the bread, sometimes the toaster / Every day lived is a lesson learned / It's an everyday thing getting your fingers burned / You can't wrap your self up in cotton wool / Or else you'll never live life to the full / So bring on the scuffed knees and broken dreams / THOSE Loves lived and lost coast off downstream / If you've lost your paddle while your up shit creek / You can't miss the grime trying to find your feet / It's an everyday thing getting dirty hands / grubby fingerprints on your best laid plans / We all need the hard times to tip the scales / Before THAT hot zephyr fills up the sails / And lifts you even higher when the pendulum swings / it all evens out in the scheme of things CAN’T GET BY WITH NO PAIN / TELLING YOU IT’S NO GAME / DON’T YOU FEEL NO, DON’T YOU FEEL NO SHAME Push past thAT game show and expose the Wizard of Oz / A grinning sly face like a grizzly fox / Surrounded by machinery, the whizzing of cogs / As armies of lackeys sip hair of the dog / Got you jumping like frogs, so dont fall of the log / Cos it's dirty and sticky in that squabbling bog / With the twin certitudes, death and taxes / One life, live it, with the scrapes and scratches / Day one, they punch your card / Then your tagged, weighed and measures for statistical charts / ID'd, processed, put on the list / out the door ready with a tag on the wrist / Day two, they send you off to school / Where you learn to play nice and to follow the rules / And everything you got not fitting the mould / Is shaved off or squashed till you do as your told [CHORUS] So humans here we go, your own truman show / When you're monitored and measured by who? We don't know / Clandestine overlords in corporate bunkers / Watch the live feed and count up the numbers / Rack the stacks, while balloon heads slumber / Panopticon watching on cool as cucumbers / Wealth is hoarded, foes waterboarded / Theft's applauded, whole countries defrauded / Then sell it back with profits rewarded / And we dug deep and even paid for it / Do you abhor it? Choose to ignore it? / Mesmerised by media recordings / Billboards of of aspirational porn kings / Selling a lifestyle that noones affording / Deeper in debt, no net, free falling / Calling for THAT lifeline no time for stalling [CHORUS]

We Are 05:20
We are walking Venn diagrams and spider graphs / Heliocentric Spirographs / Overlapping circles upon circles / Dragging intangible tendrils with every step / Each reaching out to take hold / We are not alone / We are everyone we know / We are a forest of trees / With canopies interwoven / Connected / WE’RE CHOSEN TO REACH OUT / WE ARE... CONNECTED / We are everyone we know / WE ARE...

I won’t heal my wounds / I will feel my way / what’s the deal with love / when the wheel stops turning / Off the scale you people / the boat will sail in secret / chase the whale so deep now / I wont bail I’ve been waiting on this one, I hope it’s the right one (x3) / I’ve been waiting on this one, I hope she’s the right one. Wind will blow in our faces / along the road keep walking / you will know where her face is / take it slow take it slow / I will take my time / aim so high and I will climb / when she’s mine you’ll know / she’ll be mine, she’ll be mine. [CHORUS]

Step Forward 03:55
nostalgia has its time and place / But you cant move on if you’re looking Volte face / You know where you've been - why retread your steps? / That fresh trodden earth is the best it gets / So take those blinkers off and face front / Kicking after progress is worth the punt / Since I was a runt I looked to the future / Living for the moment with a vibe to suit ya / Well fingers crossed it's never plain sailing / But onwards and upwards is where we're aiming / Taming the beast, stroking it's fur / Looking for the rumble of predatory purr / No spurs, ride the beast with bare heels / Avoid the bumps like square wheels / And where feels the best is the destination / Let's step ahead no procrastination Get high, get free / step forward, keep on keeping on / Stay high, stay strong / step forward, keep on keeping on Let's stitch a line in time like a sutre / A golden thread ahead heads to the future / A blank page for the ink of your story / The blows of your prose, stink of your glory / So think for me and picture the vista / flow like a current through a hot transistor / Can't resist a twist ta the narrative Glistening elixir, uplifting additive / That's the spice of life that adds flavour / The experience that money can't pay for / The adventure the promise the dream / Alien sights in your mis-en-scene / tickle me with Icarus's feathers till we die / Always heads up sun's glint in the eyes / Constant momentum, constant surprise / Constantly climb in search of the prize [CHORUS] STEP FORWARD / DON’T EVER LOOK BACK [x3] step forward slow ya roll, pause for a second / The present is a gift and I wish you would check it / Life is a line graph moment to moment / All you can ask is to hold it and own it / Then move on, capture the next one / Swept up enraptured in the next sun / Look around the days to be seized / Opportunities ripe to be squeezed / Don't be a pipsqueak - grip till the pips squeak / Yank on the udders of Life till the tits leak / And when you've done that, then step forward / rather than wrestle with the would, should or could / Grab a vine, swing to the next tree / Set yourself a new Trajectory / Stepping out we jump, swing and fly / Peak at the zenith launch into the skies [CHORUS]
12.
All I do, all I know / can’t you see that I need you, to be true / Don’t be scared, you won’t fall / we are free and I need you, to see it / The only thing that’s real, is everything we’ve been Through, we two / Know it’s there, we won’t fall, just don’t let go Oh find your way / Keep on searching / Take my hand and / Let’s go wandering Raise your hand, touch the sky, shed your sorrow and see through, be you / Open doors, ever more so that your soul can break free / Far away, we fly anywhere that we need to, we two / Know it’s there, you won’t fall, just don’t let go. [CHORUS] Take my hand. let's walk to the sun / Turn your face to the rays, look out here it comes / It 's a new dawn rising, aint it surprising / What you can do when you just expand your horizons Go the distance like a discus across the miniscus / Don't distrust, sit up and discuss / Reactivate, reenergise / Open up that inner eye / Look around see the world / Free the mind, free the words [CHORUS]
13.
The Owl 08:33
Remember the taste, it faded too fast / Red runs the river that cuts you in half you are my friend, speak to me at night just like you I sleep through the morning light / sun soon hides / Night falls like a knife Shrouded in silence I’ll take my time / Take what i want / what’s mine is mine [chorus] (x2) You were the when I needed you Something told me to come home Can you feel the love?
