Mining For Bad Diamonds

I know what I'm not doing
I know the truth when I'm telling it
What isn't a waste of time
When I am always dying
Mining measures and mistakes
I know what I should feel bad about
Swearing at my stupid feelings
Will push them back down
Come on
Then sleep always lets me off
So I can forget all about this
That's fine I'm really better
When I don't care at all
Come on
I can stop time

He travels alone
With no end point in sight, he stays as he likes
He travels by train
When it pulls into town he ought to look around
But the old town seems abandoned and all quiet
He strays and explores but his calls return only silence
He spends too much time
Now the last train has passed and light will not last
He puts down for the night
But the strange empty town starts to make sound
In fact it's a town of cats
Over the bridge nearing fast
There's a tower where he can hide
From the cats and all through the night
He watches them all
They light up the lights and the market arises
This is their town
And they live as he would, he's not sure what he should do
At the break of day the cats all leave the way that they came
He could wait for the train but decides that he will remain
The third night something's wrong
There is bustle below they look high and low
Do you smell human above
That's it he's done, there's nowhere to run
But he can't be seen by the cats
They were sure they smelled a man
Relieved now he can get away
On the first train at the station
Uneasy he waits for the train
But it never comes here again
He is irretrievably lost
And he knows it's no town of cats

Don't Try

I'm going to live a long time
I'm going to live a long time
But I am still there
Is this going to be forever
Nothing feels the same
And I'd prefer not to change
Unwilling to change
Unwilling to change
I can't wait to drop out
I can't wait to drop out
I'm never going to try
I'm never going to try
I'm never going to try
I'm never going to try
I'm never going to try
I'm never going to try
I'm never going to try
I was right all along
Was right all along
I was right all along
And it feels so good
Nothing feels the same
And I'd prefer not to change
Unwilling to change
Unwilling to change
Nothing's the same
Unwilling to change

Blame On You!
01:45

Who can I blame for what has value
Out of all the things I want to do
If the fault is everybody's
That's like saying it's nobody's
Who can I blame for what we don't get
When they make believe they really need it
Doesn't matter what I want to look for
Have to find someone I can work for
How long can they save it from
Itself

Underground creature
Swimming circles in the blue
Turn your back to nature
And it turns its back to you
Underground creature
Swimming circles in the blue
Turn your back to nature
And it turns its back to you
Don't go near its mouth
Don't go near its mouth
Don't go near its mouth
Don't go near its mouth
Second verse same as the first
Creature in the circles
Underground swimming blue
Turn back and its nature
To your turned back and its you
Don't go near its mouth
Don't go near its mouth
Don't go near its mouth

You've Come So Far
04:27
|

Filling up a house with every colour
I've come so far, it's like what I've wanted
I know sometimes it takes up time
Keeping pace with heavy minds
Then we throw out our clothes
When will we notice they're gone
Sometimes it's no fun to care
Especially when you're almost there
I don't doubt all the effort
I mean won't it help all the magic to grow
No, please don't touch anything
I don't know what, I can't tell what
Contaminates you
We need a moment here alone
To calm the scary and unknown
Obsessions we just can't handle
Obsession we just can't handle
A treat we'll get from down the road
A coffee or an ice cream cone
Calm for when we need to feel slow
Calm for when we need to feel slow
