Parowan Gap 02:54
Mysterious petroglyphs Fifteen second shooting star Ghosts live in this hidden passage And science reminds you how small you really are I'm trying to sleep... Your gods keep breathing down my neck Your gods keep breathing down my neck Your gods keep breathing down my neck Your gods keep breathing down my neck Your gods keep breathing down my neck Neck neck neck neck neck neck neck neck Neck Neck Neck Neck Neck Neck Neck Neck

Block Party 02:38
All blocked: barriers put up And there's beer in my cup to beat the heat Look out! Some tanks are approaching The crowds are encroaching This is my street The neighbor next door Comes back from the store He's bringing the buns And a couple guns Ice cold lemonade And a dozen grenades... Don't infiltrate our block party It's our block party - you go away! Don't complicate our block party It's our block party - you go away! Hot grill is totally cooking And when you're not looking I'll steal your wine Hot coals - I think are all that's left Long after they street swept and found our mines The house where I stay Is across the way Where I keep my stuff Till enough's enough Then I'll start the spree And take y'all with me... Don't infiltrate our block party It's our block party - you go away! Don't complicate our block party It's our block party - you go away!

Valerian 02:42
I lie alone - my heart's a drone testing my soul The beating drum until I'm numb - until I'm too old To make it matter or… I take the blur - sour tincture testing my brain Will it consume my fear and gloom? Can it contain unsolid matter or…? Lift my clouds and make nice sounds that take you Lift my arms and speak the charms that break you Lift my clouds and make nice sounds that take you Lift my arms and speak the charms that break you Oh give me a sign...

Get the bolt cutters These little stubs dangle Out of practice: weak weak weak WEAK WEAK They don't do anything I need them to So let's fertilize the ground with my rigid digits Maybe next year the fresh crop Will be more dexterous if not just nutritious Because deep down I know Everything I am is worm food If not now then later Might as well give the grubs something to chew on And I can behold their gratitude while I'm still alive Because these fingers are useless to me Here you go maggots: Enjoy!

Narrows 01:28
Thousand feet of sand Compressed in time, now are walls Closing in on us

Black is here - do not fear Flood the world with waxy night Dull the glare of paper white What we bleed - is it green? Names you can't identify Scratch your head and question why Red is not always hot The primaries are never true Just ask her - she slept with blue I want my colors to be different Let it go I've got a crayon in my pocket Let it go

Fraidy 02:25
I'm an old man - there's no question - but there's doubt I thought I'd couldn't feel this way again Well, wasn't I beyond this? I'm revealed: a worthless specimen I'm not a shining star example Apparently I can't control myself But that's okay 'cuz neither can you I had that dream where I am standing in a room With wide eyes sitting staring back at me I tried to formulate an answer Tried to speak But words that failed me my whole life So why not here? Why must I still uphold a better standard? Who will I let down if I fall apart? I want to drown inside that crystal ocean I want to live...
11.
So here I am in this forgetful place I have no cause or will to leave a trace I'm sorry but there's my heart In silence I will depart It happens that I am much older now But I could make it back to home somehow Don't worry and please don't wait I won't be back early or late The sun will take me alone... And dry my bones... Drying my bones...

Vector 01:29
I walk briskly down the sidewalk It's precious, my time People all in my way Traveling in a non-straight line I can't read your mind I'm no aura inspector When walking around me Be a predictable vector I don't blame your cell phone I'm just blaming you Technology doesn't make you a jerk You do

Scan prog rock heroes Didn't know so many died Guess that wasn't news

Sneeze 04:00
I have two watery eyes But I'm not about to cry I I I I I denied Then I suddenly inhale About to send some s-mail Ah ah ah ah ah ah fail Oh man not according to plan I am damn damn damn damn damn damn damn damned! I have a knot in my chest But not cardiac arrest T t t t t t test I have a frog in my throat Or maybe it is a stoat Or or or or or a goat Can't tell - am I under a spell? Am I un un un un un un unwell? Hell! I just had some spicy soup And some kind of herbal goop I'm I'm I'm I'm I'm I'm duped My friend said maybe it's dust I'm not sure what I should trust B b b b b b but I wheeze with an awesome unease Can I pl pl pl pl pl pl pl please... Sneeze!
