1. THE ACCURSED

I was torn but I am brave
The future in my hands
Mistakes were made
And I was torn
I will fulfill my fortune
You can't stop me

Shatter the blank spots as I rip through my life
Fractions of time all slip and fly by
Onto the next one and onto the new
Visions of trials I trace to thinking of you

I remembered a thought in the eye of a storm
A pressure an instant the stability worn
Treading in the wake what do I deserve
Capture a glimpse until I'm overturned

I was torn but I am brave
The future in my hands
Mistakes were made
And I was torn
I will fulfill my fortune
You can't stop me

Blocked from start and I try to unfold
When I'm stepping out into the unknown
There's a part of me that just can't relate
So I'm turning my demons into saints

Am I inviting or am I disguised
Are you living the dreams the ones that keep you alive
I see myself begging for only the worst
You know that I love you but you know that I'm cursed

I just can't relate
Turning my demons into saints
I'm begging for only, for only the worst
You know that I love you but you know that I'm cursed
I'm fucking cursed

I was torn but I am brave
The future in my hands
Mistakes were made
And I was torn
I will fulfill my fortune
You can't stop me
You can't stop me
You can't stop me

I just can't relate
Turning my demons into saints
I'm begging for only, for only the worst
You know that I love you but you know that I'm cursed
I'm fucking cursed


2. DISCONNECTOME

We are subject to an end
The human condition
Make a symbol of yourself, now

When will our wisdom corrode?
Decline and die
Wiped from the canvas
Remap, rewire
Memories on file

Reanimate!

Reading dream - weeding out the secrets
Seeking strength - something stronger than faith
Reading dreams - reaching deep into our cortex
We welcome the incorporation of steel

We're ever changing - increasing networks
Millions of miles - interlaced like trees
Come on the voyage - what's stored in the forest
Explore the connectome, discover yourself
Discover yourself

When will our wisdom corrode?
Decline and die
Wiped from the canvas
Remap, rewire
Memories on file

Man is forever advancing
Creating his own gods
The layers are stacking
The limits are long gone
We'll see the future intact or torn
Wealthy preserving the wrong resource
Between love and hate
The layers are stacking


3. CYCLES OF TRAGEDY

Back and forth - the face to face
Space between the emptiness
We don't always radiate, a sense of faith
But it's the place I long to be

I believe it's my destiny
A crater laid empty, screams to increase
Stable safety rears its pretty face
Afraid of the failure - afraid of the pain

Inside the back and forth
Between the emptiness
Is the place I long to be
Another shot at destiny

Inside the back and forth
Between the emptiness
Is the place I long to be
Another shot at destiny

Careful brain I creep right past you
My actions test your security
I'm not afraid of your healing approval
Snapped in half - broken in two

Inside the back and forth
Between the emptiness
Is the place I long to be
Another shot at destiny

Inside the back and forth
Between the emptiness
Is the place I long to be
Another shot at destiny

Back and forth - the face to face
Space between the emptiness
We don't always radiate, a sense of faith
But it's the place I long to be

My eyes at times at times see the perfect picture
Yet I sacrifice, solid ground and a balanced life
Cycles of tragedy
Cycles of tragedy


4. UNDER THE GUN

We said we want
We said we wanna get a little bit lighter
Continuing our reach to be higher
You know we all need a little bit of love
Standing above what's been done
The world is shaking and we're all under fire
So concerned who's pointing the gun
Will you believe what we all can become
Standing above what's been done

To lead is to leave
Your hands on the heat
Feed me, she screams from the screen
"Shield us, shape us"
This is the first thing we need
A future comprised
Of two threads and a needle
Injuries, empathy
All will be healed
Will we produce or enslave
Procreate or erase?

We said we want
We said we wanna get a little bit lighter
Continuing our reach to be higher
You know we all need a little bit of love
Standing above what's been done
The world is shaking and we're all under fire
So concerned who's pointing the gun
Will you believe what we all can become
Standing above what's been done

Hit the marker, have your feet catch
Ears up to hear the trigger snap
One in front of the other
Every hurdle I wonder
Are we moving backwards or forward?

We said we want
We said we wanna get a little bit lighter
Continuing our reach to be higher
You know we all need a little bit of love
Standing above what's been done
The world is shaking and we're all under fire
So concerned who's pointing the gun
Will you believe what we all can become
Standing above what's been done

Hit the marker, have your feet catch
Ears up to hear the trigger snap
One in front of the other
Every hurdle I wonder
Are we moving backwards or forward?


5. RECURSION

(Instrumental)


6. ANALOGS IN A CELL

Cut, paste
I never mentioned the outcome to myself
Gone - stay - the repetition
The augments seem to help

Shifting into the curve
All I know is I need you
I need you, I need you by my side
Crawl inside, I'll never leave you
You're always on my mind
I need you by my side

Do you know what it, what it means
To be human? The baseline universe
When, when will it stop? We are approaching
The plateau, at a breakneck pace
The baseline universe
At a breakneck pace

Now - face the new temptation
A gateway to ourselves
Bend - crack - a revelation
The analogs in a cell

Shifting into the curve
All I know is I need you
I need you, I need you by my side
Crawl inside, I'll never leave you
You're always on my mind
I need you by my side

As soon as we thought the system was broken
We finally learned how to force it back down
We all altered the signal and discovered the meaning
The growing importance of man and machine

As soon as we thought the system was broken
We finally learned how to force it back down
We all altered the signal and discovered the meaning
The growing importance of man and machine


7. SILENCE THE ECHO

Give me the strength to break through and not fade away
It's not something you say that makes you feel safe
Stop pretending

Reset it's easy to let go
It's always hard to silence the echo
Admit this is reality
It's telling you that you're living a fallacy

Beware it defies your design
Our fears will be internalized
Your presence shapes this world
And defines our hope

These impurities take a hold of me
Refuse to concede
I need to seek clarity

I'm living on my own
These securities
The forces in my head
Keep me wondering what's next

I'm living on my own
These securities
The forces in my head
Keep me wondering what's next

Tasteless careless thoughts
They overwhelm my heart
Convinced that I am whole
I will not dissolve

I will not dissolve

Give me the strength to break through and not fade away
It's not something you say that makes you feel safe
Stop pretending

Reset it's easy to let go
It's always hard to silence the echo
Admit this is reality
It's telling you that you're living a fallacy

Beware it defies your design
Our fears will be internalized
Your presence shapes this world
And defines our hope

These impurities take a hold of me
Refuse to concede
I need to seek clarity

I'm living on my own
These securities
The forces in my head
Keep me wondering what's next

I'm living on my own
These securities
The forces in my head
Keep me wondering what's next


8. ONE WITHOUT THE OTHER

I'm constantly moving on involuntarily
From what I used to be
And now I'm meant to be, can I carry on?
Life seems to keep scaring me
Without my brother I'm so lost
And faced with insecurity

Capsized and violent holding
Troubled against my brothers
As if we've never been
One without the other
Through the worst or best
Kept this card close to my chest
But when the tables turn
I feel like you want me to burn

I try to reach out - hold your presence
These captured memories, I won't forget

Capsized and violent holding
Troubled against my brothers
As if we've never been
One without the other
Through the worst or best
Kept this card close to my chest
But when the tables turn
I feel like you want me to burn

With any passion of fun or dance
Just a pun - just a joke or a fake
Personally - it's not easy to please you
It makes me grind on my teeth

And when I have a blank canvas
Vacuumed from the choices
I must break my heart and say nothing

These tiny fragments in my head are telling me
It's not safe to question you
So I'll pretend this is the truth

I'm constantly moving on involuntarily
From what I used to be
And now I'm meant to be, can I carry on?

Escape and reshape
A plan or a play to invade space
I couldn't reach
As the ravens give meaning
I bleed this distrust to you

I try to reach out - hold your presence
These captured memories, I won't forget

Capsized and violent holding
Troubled against my brothers
As if we've never been
One without the other
Through the worst or best
Kept this card close to my chest
But when the tables turn
I feel like you want me to burn
