Moonlight Technology 06:50

I should be happy to get what we're given Post up the stories and pin up my opinion They have the perfect life, looking at the proof A facsimile, play on the truth Something got to me, something got to me Bending reality, bending reality You're only in our way, in our way You want to gain, we just want to play Ohhh Aaaaa I had to walk it off, spread toes in the ground Pavlov's touch screen addict It's a maze but i'm not your mouse These things won't fix themselves, if we sit here scrolling down We'll solve it face-to-face Take our heads out of the cloud If you got your way we'll all be living hand-to-mouth It's quite a display to fill your pockets for the coming drought If I refrain from this Moonlight Technology And reach out to the world We've important things to do and see You see a silver lining and mark it with a price Sharing a story, or selling me a line? And while we're arguing we forget the youth We get called grown ups, but I don't see our use Something got to me, something got to me Bending reality, bending reality You're only in our way, in our way You want to gain, we just want to play Ohhh Aaaaa I had to walk it off, spread toes in the ground Pavlov's touch screen addict It's a maze but i'm not your mouse These things won't fix themselves, if we sit here scrolling down We'll solve it face-to-face Take our heads out of the cloud If you got your way we'll all be living hand-to-mouth It's quite a display to fill your pockets for the coming drought If I refrain from this Moonlight Technology And reach out to the world We've important things to do and see Strange to me that you don't read everything we're writing down Be it hateful, inciting... destabilising When civil discourse is giving up the ghost your learning machines kick back, taking notes It's clear to all around you'll take your pound We can all burn down, long as you get paid A certain philosophy I can't agree makes much sense in light of events Eyes in the sky and spies at home, little helpers in white and chrome Gonna tittle tattle tell if I start dissenting, while friends text me how the rent is Is it my delusion or is the near conclusion to change our ways and leave you behind If you got your way we'll all be living hand-to-mouth It's quite a display to fill your pockets for the coming drought If I refrain from this Moonlight Technology And reach out to the world We've important things to do and see Not your Moonlight Technology

It Takes Two 06:16

It's 2 AM and we should be sleeping Breathing so lightly cuz they're quietly dreaming Take a second before we both pass out A tender session to show we won't go south You hold onto me, I cling hard to you Ohhhh How did we get here, what do we do now? It's not a question, simply a mood i've found Hard on yourself that it's not enough, struggling to remember You're only flesh and bone Not a machine that makes a home, no ooh Just gotta say this, I appreciate it But you'll never be all alone in this fight I'll take the slack and more Tired as I am, do it for all I adore, whoah ooh There's no replacement, though we're feeling vacant It's obvious we can't make it on our own It takes two It takes two ooh It takes two It takes two ooh We used to be chill, now quietly nervous So full and so happy, but held below the surface All the terror that we could get something wrong It's not our life, still forced to play a god You hold onto me, I cling hard to you Ohhhh How did we get here, what do we do now? It's not a question, simply a mood i've found Hard on yourself that it's not enough, struggling to remember You're only flesh and bone Not a machine that makes a home, no ooh Just gotta say this, I appreciate it But you'll never be all alone in this fight I'll take the slack and more Tired as I am, do it for all I adore, whoah ooh There's no replacement, though we're feeling vacant It's obvious we can't make it on our own It takes two It takes two ooh It takes two It takes two ooh Hush We might have minutes don't you rush This blessed instant Silken and soothing from distilled infusion Refusing all movement til we answer the call To hush This restless infant So flush Overactive instinct Lulling with our song Fabric stars in congregation In turn we'll change the guard Affirm it isn't so hard In the long run, it's worth it The trade-off is perfect We live in the moment Our missing component wakes us, to smile Enough fuel to make it through to dawn It takes two It takes two ooh It takes two It takes two ooh And I need you And I need you ooh And I need you And I need you ooh

Doesn't matter what you did or what you said Never be ashamed of when you slid or the tears you shed Find your footing fully in the know it's not for long Times will change and you will go, so take this song You are a Butterfly ooh ohh ohh, ooh ohh ohh Be many things in life ooh ohh ohh, ooh ohh ohh You are a Butterfly ooh ohh ohh, ooh ohh ohh Be many things in life ooh ohh ohh, ooh ohh ohh Don't be scared to have your dreams, you'll have a few Be prepared to get knocked back, dig to find that jewel No course, just desire lines – steps in shifting sand No cost to stretch your mind, help you read the signs You are a Butterfly ooh ohh ohh, ooh ohh ohh Be many things in life ooh ohh ohh, ooh ohh ohh You are a Butterfly ooh ohh ohh, ooh ohh ohh Be many things in life ooh ohh ohh, ooh ohh ohh Hard to find the time, we leave things on the side Gets worse the more you wait Turn around and start today You are a Butterfly ooh ohh ohh, ooh ohh ohh Be many things in life ooh ohh ohh, ooh ohh ohh You are a Butterfly ooh ohh ohh, ooh ohh ohh Be many things in life ooh ohh ohh, ooh ohh ohh If there's only one thing you remember Fortune favours bravery and attracts pretenders Value is in what you do, not what you have Contribute to history, no money changes hands Life is like a bell curve, an observation The high point is visible only from a lower station Best way to find out where is to give it a try Take it in and put it out, that's how humans fly You are a Butterfly ooh ohh ohh, ooh ohh ohh Be many things in life ooh ohh ohh, ooh ohh ohh You are a Butterfly ooh ohh ohh, ooh ohh ohh Be many things in life ooh ohh ohh, ooh ohh ohh Ooh Whoah ohh ohh, ooh whoah ohh ohh Ooh Whoah ohh ohh, ooh whoah ohh ohh

Don't Beat 'Em, Join Us 04:00

Another year, another new outrage Master's kicking down, shake our can around And I was like you, took a dim view of activists and ideologists Just because they view the world a certain way Doesn't make it right, don't have the only say The Earth itself holds enough surprises Freedom must include what you're despising So don't beat them, join us Different voices joined in one chorus We don't have to see it eye-to-eye To know what we must do So don't beat them, join us Different voices joined in one chorus We don't have to see it eye-to-eye To know what we must do You can't hear the vocal minority They own the column inches, and your property Might read it's all about The Other But who is paying to print those lines? Everything's heating up, we're hungry for change And letting go is beyond their range While we're fighting over each perspective We ignore the bank rollers and their elected So don't beat them, join us Different voices joined in one chorus We don't have to see it eye-to-eye To know what we must do So don't beat them, join us Different voices joined in one chorus We don't have to see it eye-to-eye To know what we must do You don't have to hold my hand You don't have to meet my eye Bigger things require courage It doesn't matter what we're like You don't have to hold my hand You don't have to meet my eye Bigger things require courage It doesn't matter what we're like I need you, and you need me For at least until we're free – whoahh I need you, and you need me For at least until we're free History has always been a teacher Nelson, or Rosa – the end of a blade? Sure you know which one i'd prefer Who will build the future while we're forming brigades? It shouldn't be this hard, it's hard to live day-to-day today Pick up our banner, no but or if Before they drive us off a cliff So don't beat them, join us Different voices joined in one chorus We don't have to see it eye-to-eye To know what we must do So don't beat them, join us Different voices joined in one chorus We don't have to see it eye-to-eye To know what we must do

Pop your collar, baby - Iron your dollars Maybe you'll look good enough to pass it off Not close to the grave Roll the suit sleeves and then Show 'em your rad moves, hang ten Flex hard enough, buy a champagne smokescreen Try to misbehave Your tan lines show hard time It can't hide the long ride Trying to pick up, be slicker The half-dead get quicker Media gave you FOMO Not the good grace to grow old Accept my timely advice Days you knew, no longer in view Bye-bye, bye-bye Can't get it back once you've started to crack Bye-bye, bye-bye Keep on the move, you've got nothing to prove Bye-bye, bye-bye Don't think you're fine with living a lie Bye-bye, bye-bye Have you been happy lately? Cuz the dress code isn't Eighties Maybe you're bored with relations at home Hit a rut in your job A ball of frayed emotions Inside you're crying oceans Believe me I know it's hard to maintain, when you've given up all your time Bent your knee for that money Gave 'em Twenty, came up empty Learn to selfie, maybe Tik Tok Whatever's trending, see what they got Losing all your patience Maybe youth adjacent Accept my timely advice Days you knew, no longer in view Bye-bye, bye-bye Can't get it back once you've started to crack Bye-bye, bye-bye Keep on the move, you've got nothing to prove Bye-bye, bye-bye Don't think you're fine with living a lie Bye-bye, bye-bye Put your shades on Dim the stage lights This is how you portray your dimming headlights No thing like dignity, though we live in hope Scared to death of being left, some piece of old rope Put your shades on Dim the stage lights This is how you portray your dimming headlights No thing like dignity, though we live in hope Scared to death of being left, some piece of old rope Days you knew, no longer in view Bye-bye, bye-bye Can't get it back once you've started to crack Bye-bye, bye-bye Keep on the move, you've got nothing to prove Bye-bye, bye-bye Don't think you're fine with living a lie Bye-bye, bye-bye Bye-bye, bye-bye, bye-bye, bye-bye

Gotta call her up Have to take control Liking how she looks Navigate her soul Discover all her ticks Get inside her head These are the oldest tricks A book you never read Don't have to follow her home, if she's inviting you in Massaging profiles online Critique inside her DM Your business booming you say Dance on the head of a pin Near broke but hiding it well All for a piece of that sin You're the King and she's the Queen Til she calls out your little scheme Lashing out, causing all a scene Want one thing and it's disgusting Disgusting, disgusting Gonna take her out To a crowded place In the dark and noise Harder to read your face This is what you really want Romance at arms length Think your only chance is to sap her strength Don't have to follow her home, if she's inviting you in Massaging profiles online Critique inside her DM Your business booming you say Dance on the head of a pin Near broke but hiding it well All for a piece of that sin You're the King and she's the Queen Til she calls out your little scheme Lashing out, causing all a scene Want one thing and it's disgusting Disgusting, disgusting So, just dance You're the King and she's the Queen Til she calls out your little scheme Lashing out, causing all a scene Want one thing and it's disgusting Disgusting, disgusting Please, just dance

Just a little, though it's brittle – is there time for us? Near enough, maybe Sun is shining, though it's violence is a double-edged blade On our minds, lately One chance, one soul Whatever you'd call it Run full, head-on, into the abyss Why wonder what's coming after This world has got so much i'd miss Tick tock, don't stop what you're doing Stop watch, on top of everything else Tick tock, don't stop till the finish line Too much to see, for your first ride Too familiar, what I feel here is the tip of the tree I'm a leaf, tiny All the grace can't be replaced by a spirit or god It's how we get inspired One chance, one soul Whatever you'd call it Run full, head-on, into the abyss Why wonder what's coming after This world has got so much i'd miss Tick tock, don't stop what you're doing Stop watch, on top of everything else Tick tock, don't stop till the finish line Too much to see, for your first ride Remember to breathe (focus and meditate on the ebbing of breath, of nature) Tick tock, don't stop what you're doing Stop watch, on top of everything else Tick tock, don't stop till the finish line Too much to see, for your first ride Tick tock, don't stop what you're doing Stop watch, on top of everything else Tick tock, don't stop till the finish line Too much to see, for your first ride

Someone so superior This sensitive, every nerve is raw A modern Midas, I might not mind it But any question puts a dent in your day Complex to be inferior Your prerogative, nothing in your way A step from Crassus, a little fascist Unaware of a how a kindness gets paid Point blank, a point of order Every missive, better get in line Bred to lead, even if we bleed Not a guiding light, a bolt gun Don't know if anyone ever told you Your holy mission, slow burning battle cry Not just for the few, a system reboot We have to boot you out before we re-run Go-Getter, Bed Wetter Acting like a lord, but you're no better than me Nah nah nah nah nah, nah nah nah nah nah nahh Go-Getter, Bed Wetter Acting like a lord, but you're no better than me Nah nah nah nah nah, nah nah nah nah nah nahh Hole we peek through, for your vanity Won't blow smoke, don't want it anyway Power corrupting needs interrupting I'm sure the perspective would improve your character Helping others isn't charity The basic bond that evokes humanity Behaviour built-in, now let that soak in Before you lecture us on selfish genes Happy, just the way I am Creating and loving, just a little man Grand illusion is the grandeur looming Kings and paupers under sands of time Have to avoid the pursuit if we can Chasing stars you can't see who you overran Take for yourself, take from someone else Responsible, know when to stop Go-Getter, Bed Wetter Acting like a lord, but you're no better than me Nah nah nah nah nah, nah nah nah nah nah nahh Go-Getter, Bed Wetter Acting like a lord, but you're no better than me Nah nah nah nah nah, nah nah nah nah nah nahh Go-Getter, Bed Wetter Acting like a lord, but you're no better than me Nah nah nah nah nah, nah nah nah nah nah nahh Go-Getter, Bed Wetter Acting like a lord, but you're no better than me Nah nah nah nah nah, nah nah nah nah nah nahh

You know there's something coming You can smell it on the wind People in the streets have started running Before they catch up, you will hear the din Things will change and how will we run it? Newer ways of choosing Who decides where we all fit in Without them getting bruises? It comes around again, dissatisfaction spreads Could we get a better end? Nothing to it, friend! Got nothing to lose We gotta have a shortened fuse World around get what we need By removing all the greed Fighting dirty just to keep us down Braced against we stand No need for fists, hold our ground Like Suffrage, Delano, Estonia – we demand Times will change, how will you be remembered? History has eyes Did you block the path, inciting censure? Or help humanity rise? It comes around again, dissatisfaction spreads Could we get a better end? Nothing to it, friend! Got nothing to lose We gotta have a shortened fuse World around get what we need By removing all the greed March, march, march It comes around again, dissatisfaction spreads Could we get a better end? Nothing to it, friend! Got nothing to lose We gotta have a shortened fuse World around get what we need By removing all the greed We know it's hard Never all agree A little compromise Is not the same as defeat It comes around again, dissatisfaction spreads Could we get a better end? Nothing to it, friend! Got nothing to lose We gotta have a shortened fuse World around get what we need By removing all the greed

Act like i'm asking a little too much To live my life, you're so out of touch The world is a prism and we're the light Don't look or act the same, but just as bright Sometimes you just have to give a little Even if you don't like it, meet me in the middle Treat me like I was always wrong But this is just the way that I was born Sometimes you just have to give a little Even if you don't like it, meet me in the middle Treat me like I was always wrong But this is just the way that I was born Don't you think it's gone a bit too far? I don't come to you, try to change your heart We'll never all be a straight beam of white Nature and nurture can't be wrapped up tight Sometimes you just have to give a little Even if you don't like it, meet me in the middle Treat me like I was always wrong But this is just the way that I was born Sometimes you just have to give a little Even if you don't like it, meet me in the middle Treat me like I was always wrong But this is just the way that I was born

Once upon a time, I did look upon the night And decide I was ripe to hit the hay Barely a moment on the sheets til i'm drifting off to sleep This conceit charts the journey through my minds eye Hush you ego the Id has come to play You pushed down the subconscious for appearances today The spires you will spy might disturb and delight But that's the truth we often deny Soaring through the clouds Cooking up the vowels Upending all the crowds Haven't even reach those golden halls yet Chapter two – caught a view of some unearthly hue Like reflected starlight off a dragons scales Could those be roofs? Wind whipping round my shoes Towers reaching through the blue to the moon's backyard Hush you ego the Id has come to play You pushed down the subconscious for appearances today The spires you will spy might disturb and delight But that's the truth we often deny Soaring through the clouds Cooking up the vowels Upending all the crowds Haven't even reach those golden halls yet Oh, wait... I rise, a breathless chase Snatching at the thunder And reach such wondrous grace Walls of glassy slumber The door lying through a frame of ever-flowing thought To the ports, glittering streets too dazzling to report I rise, a breathless chase Snatching at the thunder And reach such wondrous grace Walls of glassy slumber The door lying through a frame of ever-flowing thought To the ports, glittering streets too dazzling to report Bless this heart, kiss our soul Blinded by a radiant eternal whole Change my mind to one node Constant, insistent, no distance While all of space unfolds A faint sound drilling straight down Breaking chains and reclaiming my brain Time to go In reverse, bubbles burst Limbs converse Back on Earth At my home 7:35 Sun has woken 7:35 Memories broken 7:36 Rebuild it brick by brick 7:36 Nothing seems to stick 7:35 Sun has woken 7:35 Memories broken 7:36 Rebuild it brick by brick 7:36 Nothing seems to...

Might take a while to figure it out Nobody said you had to be perfect right now In fact I do recall a certain young thing (that was me) Fish out of water, imagination running rings Don't you feel intimidated by those who never have created Original isn't usual And being scared is a good sign Don't you hide, read about your heroes Most of them were branded weirdos Standing out adds to history Inventive minds should all agree (Lean into it) Dreams are reason loaded with rhyme (Lean into it) Tis' the season to have a good time (Lean into it) And I know that you know, deep down everyone should (Lean into it) It's all a nonsense that we call life Never been a better time to misbehave Disruptive new ideas are all the rage In fact, most do forget it was always that way Without big thinkers we'd still be in the cave Don't you feel intimidated by those who never have created Original isn't usual And being scared is a good sign Don't you hide, read about your heroes Most of them were branded weirdos Standing out adds to history Inventive minds should all agree (Lean into it) Dreams are reason loaded with rhyme (Lean into it) Tis' the season to have a good time (Lean into it) And I know that you know, deep down everyone should (Lean into it) It's all a nonsense that we call life Every song, some too long, some just right Looks back on experience or ideas and try to reply After that what it says is up to you Art and sound both abound so much so Snipe and spit about what was written And I want to climb out of the pit Never been clearer about where I really stand (Lean into it) Dreams are reason loaded with rhyme (Lean into it) Tis' the season to have a good time (Lean into it) And I know that you know, deep down everyone should (Lean into it) It's all a nonsense that we call life Lean into it and have a good life!
