Laura Enever 04:14
I swear one day I'll live with fame and they all will know what is my name and then that day I'll phone you and I'll start to talk as if we were more than friends last night i dreamt that i cheated on you my hands were cold while my eyes were still on you then i woke up and all the feelings were gone and to wake up became the thing i regretted the most no, my youth is going to go i’m standing here all alone no, laura went to surf and i’m on cronulla beach alone

Lucky 04:48
you’re so lucky but i feel no envy that’s because you’ve been just a miserable liar and i’m acting wrong with you again it will always be the same i looked inside just to lose my breath and now i’m eager to live forever there i flip and scream to entertain who’s left but i shouldn't since i can’t call you my friends I write and play to please myself cause i know you're not here to listen to my set I don't get the point, why living like that? i’m free in a body which has borders itself yes i'm numb, I can't care less bout your tantrums screw your second hand advice, ask yourself why i'm a phantom i'm free to mock your choice and then be on your wrong side again you loved to fight, to claim that land as yours, but we all know you're not meant to be there then you carved this sentence on my chest "do what you want with my life i don't need to rest" I write and play to please myself cause i know they're not here to listen to my set I don't get the point, why living like that? i’m free in a body which has borders itself

Lake Trip 03:37
it’s been what it’s been it was what it was my past keeps on asking me what i've done it’s been what it’s been it was what it was every first time you're always on your own d'you remember that time we were in my car heading to the lake hoping for the sun music flowed smoothly through the roof you were so dark, but you still looked pure “let’s leave for the evening, for the rest of our life” these were all just lies lies lies lies lies and then that first time i tried to tell you i didn't care at all about what you've been through “i’ve been through bad things and past loves too but it won't stop me from loving you” i can't even remember how long it’s been but i'm sick and tired ‘cause that feeling’s still here
5.
Empty 03:33
empty days, empty rooms empty me, empty you empty sores, d'you want some more? empty i lay against the floor empty what has been and gone empty from the bottom of my broken soul broken as i was found with empty lungs I fall through the ground did you ever wonder why living this way is harder than trying to catch the pouring rain why not now and why not then? we earned it all but there’s no time left to check i saw your eyes inside the tube replayed it twice pretending she was you have you ever been dragged down "casualty" is my middle name now have you ever say those fatal words have you ever said "please don't go"?
6.
I see you clearly staring at me from your profile picture but it screams "she's unreachable"- aren't you? that’s cause i’m living in wait for a cue new york's greedy, it's looking forward to have you back after all this time, i'm sure we met once, i saw you around twice, i dreamt of you everynight no, that's not true, it's just absurd the same old bar, that beer, i’m drunk the father, the son and the holy stash your flawless eye's a pain i can’t feel i don't mean anything to anyone i see the truth you’re not staring at me but now i don’t even want you to i bet you feel unreachable, don’t you? your plastic soul is the perfect ware for the wolves london’s blue, it doesn’t care if i’m blue too after all this time here i’m not even sure that we met once, i saw you around twice, i dreamt of you everynight no, that’s still not true, i’m glad it keeps on sounding absurd my spotted shirt, the flight you booked the promise that you won't return to forget your gaze is a pain now i won’t feel i don't mean anything to anyone i won’t feel anything for anyone
7.
can you stay the same as you were in 2008 when we used to live the rush to growing up and escaping this filthy town that made us already feel tamed this time i won't let your feelings fade away can you stay the same as you were in 2008 when your blonde hair was chocking me in my dreams which are now hazy memories and half-forgotten names this time i won't let your feelings fade away please forgive me Kaya I found another girl who caught my eye it's just another try to turn the lights up bright and forget the past Please forgive me Kaya She was just removing the sleep from my eyes it’s just another way to say i chose her over you can you stay the same as you were in the late 2008 i swear this time i won't let your feelings fade away

let jacque fresco speak he has the answer right here post capitalism?! the future's here but its still not too clear yet mom thinks i'm a freak just cause she can't see what's in my head at night self sacrifice leads to paradise as much as lucid dreaming leave you paralyzed i painted 10 quid black it's not a sign of mourning, it’s cause I want your market dead your order is a mess you missed the point you waste of human cells let jacque fresco build even though I know it's not too late till it's too late yeah system takes its toll and it wants you to die after a life spent chasing profit instead of the stars (and that's why i got mad) “utopia” is just a word nobody cares about at all “utopia” doesn’t mean it’s/you’re wrong, but god I’m so depressed now this utopia is all my world, i’m doomed i can’t escape now an utopia is just a fraud and I’m too old to dare to know
