Opted Out 03:19
Back from the edge to the drawing board When the vision grew tired and the fire cold Our lines begin to fray so we leave them Ten years from the seed but the husk survived With malformed words to construct a crude alibi The call as clear as day, none home to heed it Post-integrity No space left free Myths recovered False necessity Conscience picked clean We sign our own release Back from the breach where the scars were sewn Kept count, played out, patterned to bore Exceptions end the rule, shelter from a sickness In the distance a bed of excuses laid Lost a reason to measure, destroyed the gauge Few compelled to move with no threat of a witness Post-integrity No space left free Myths recovered False necessity Conscience picked clean We sign our own release No intent in a backslide No heartbeat to mark time No plateau without a flatline Outrunning our outrage Understanding but unfazed Inventing the next stage Well-rounded like zeros Talking up our symptoms Muted in our burn out From the ashes born another stranger Lightening the load Tired from the chore Over thinking

Bad Sufferer 02:55
Overwhelmed immediately Familiar adversity Repeating history Same story, new facts Same characters, same third act Absorbed in the archetypes Conclusion spotted for miles Still a surprise It can't be nothing; it must be everything Compass whirls in the tempest Never points to its own axis Same story, new facts Same characters, same exact third act Adrift in the obvious Lessons too simple to be true Still a surprise It can't be nothing; it must be everything You know the drill, the bits The pressure, the angle, the circular friction… I know, I've heard it all before

There Now 02:27
When the world that I know loses all but its name Known distance to another from a prison frame A loss incurred No credits earned but we can cope When there is nothing to shelve, nothing to arrange Seize on ephemera to silence the brain Gather it like scattered family, beg for calmer air Scavenge through dreams, recede from care A loss incurred No credits earned but we can cope Message to the tracker: we know we're home The dirt was swept out, the path has been burned Not locked by town, not bound by blood Free like a disease, like the dawn, so come on
