Youth 02:58
new found alarm more heat than light; no real harm shoved in their shoes, you'd do the same thrown up, torn down all roads lead to capital now will dust ever take real blame? your fingertips have healed clean over but DNA reveals, throws open somewhere in your family tree false start; fierce heat but someone was allowed some dignity someone was allowed some dignity they're gonna do matter-of-fact it isn't enough to be meta about that your online views are a bike ploughed into a sand dune your fingertips have healed clean over but DNA reveals, throws open somewhere in the place that you'll flee false-flag newsfeed but someone was allowed some dignity someone was allowed some dignity someone was allowed some dignity someone was allowed some dignity your fingertips have healed clean over but DNA reveals, throws open your heart your heart your heart if you've not been lobbied, you'll be... if you've not been brutal, you'll be... if you've not been selfish, you'll be forever young forever young forever young forever

Land & Sea 02:11
what becomes of a little boy grown up now but still in need of a love unconditional safe home from sea? what becomes of a mother then work all done yet just begun how to lose and yet gain as well far out to sea mother now you know he's found the echo from a perfect sound a son-in-law who carries on that love what becomes when you've never lost anything that mattered too much? how will solid land really be worse than the sea? well a green ray forms on the horizon sometimes and just for a moment when there's nowhere else i really need to be mother now you know he's found the echo from a perfect sound a son-in-law who carries on that love sweetheart now i know i've found the echo from a perfect sound a resonance repeated on and on and on

Avenues 03:26
look up from your inkwell and it's not so bad how did you surround yourself with friends in the first place? i want to sway you and realise you not just to know you through a screen i had to show you all that i've been through not just to tell you unrevealing blandities or a safe profundity or a tragic look-at-me and now i can't start taking avenues unknown head up from the lightbox and the world's not ending i'm glad i got to live with and without this thing i want to hold you i want to see you not just to know you through a screen i think i owe you all that i've been through not just to tell you unrevealing blandities or a well-spun slow retreat with a shoulder glance revealing...oh a backstory of impossible consequence exquisite art direction to distract you from the contrived coincidence underpinning the story which would have been obvious any other way but i can't start taking avenues unknown lights up as the night ends and we all look older but there's always tomorrow until there's not anymore i want to sway you and realise you not just to know you through a screen i had to show you all that i've been through not just to tell you unrevealing blandities or a safe profundity or a tragic look-at-me or a well-spun slow retreat the coincidence conceit the coincidence conceit the coincidence conceit i can't i can't learn a new medium just now i can't i can't learn a new language overnight i can't i can't start taking avenues unknown try not to take it too badly

Dare 04:13
fast and wild sharp and free therefore, nothing like me still sneaking home with cigarette smoke lingering and wondering if that fire went out or the hedgerow burned down a six-thirty summer evening there's another way, it said but i'm not listening call from twenty years ahead that boy's not answering not quite ready and his thoughts all hot and put away but there to come alive another day you start writing it down see your smalltime beliefs set badly on the paper is that all you've got? prosaic and flat we've all thought that before now make it sound believable there's another way, it said but i'm not listening call from twenty years ahead that boy's not answering not quite ready and his thoughts all hot and put away but there to come alive another day but i dare you to i double dare you to i dare you to i double dare you to i double dare you to i double dare you to
