Smile 02:53
Smile The first sight that he sees The first breath that he breathes The first kiss of the sun Will be his best ones And oh it feels so good to be born And oh it feels so good to be born Smiling as you find so sweet Infinity laid at your feet and Sucking on a sunrise High The first word that he makes The first step that he takes On the path to tears It’s all down-hill from here Oh it feels so good to be born And oh it feels so good to be born Smiling as you find so sweet Infinity laid at your feet and Sucking on a sunrise High And when your footsteps carry you Through the ground You’ll fall fast asleep And dream your life away

If Only I Were If only I could see for I am just a boy My eyes have yet to see, A day-to-day routine that Keeps you feeling so serene and Inside reality and Outside I’d weep for you If only I could see… If only I could breathe for I am just a child My bodies yet to breathe, The words so poisoning that Keep you feeling so serene and Distance you from the dream and Outside I’d call to you If only I could breathe… If only the world I’m seeing Was the dream I’m bathing in If I’d never been caught sleeping I’d have dreamed and lost my way If only I could feel the dark behind the sun Thirsty for the kill, My poet has his will and Raindrops melting maddening My everything reality Is weeping through my ecstasy If only I could feel… If my sleepless eyes were blind They’d see me through my darkest days

A Minor Distortion/ Coming To Be I am only what god made me Leave me now and never wake me up
5.
Madness 01:50
Madness I am falling I am calling Forward and backward Forward and backward I am calming Rolling on in my own infancy Don’t let the costumes of the presidency Get you feeling down Don’t you worry I’m here to help you Don’t you feel lonely Only abused Don’t you feel delicate Bathe in the view I’ll help you The man in the corner Searching for the light bulb Somebody call the coroner Problems he might solve Resort to blindness Madness
6.
Daydream 04:35
Daydream Smile for them Laugh for them Gasp for them Move for them Prove for them Crawl to them, grawl to the All-seeing prophet’s hand All seeking profit and Want for them Need for them Breathe for them Bleed for them Toast to them At least to most of them At least the ghost in them Speak for them Leak for them Endlessly sleep in The people are creeping in Go now and greet them Shake for them Take for them Make for them Break for them No more daydream Lost at sea in a daydream Sink with me for a while Crawling under my broken dreams Melting under my open eyes Sleep brings peace to the daylight
7.
Shadows 03:18
Shadows Playing peaceless in the street-fire Praying speechless to the wall The automatic static of the madness Makes you feel so small And aren’t we ghosts Cast shadows on the earth Lie to ourselves say we invented the light bulb So we defeated the sun And aren’t we ash Residual memories of a crash And aren’t we the con-artists Who stole from our mothers And forgot their names
8.
Broken Record All good things come to pass For the man in the corner Somebody turn the lights off For the man in the corner Somebody turn the lights off For the man in the corner Somebody turn the lights off For the man in the corner Somebody turn the lights off Somebody turn the lights off The rain Upwards of eighteen years… probably All good things come to pass The rain Pouring I thought I was No you’re not I thought I was No you’re not I thought I was No we’re not But here I am And here we are And here we are
