Track Name: Grey Fall Skies
I can see the sun in your eyes,
reflecting what we used to call skies.
More like a cloud hung over my head,
reminding me we'll all end up dead.
You're goddamn right the Earth's my hotel,
and you're goddamn right I'm paying my rent.
Which one of our friends can we sell?
I can see that it's all adding up.

I can see, I can see more.

Weighing our lives by the pound,
but we'll all end up in the same ground.
People are all abandoned towns.
Sooner or later we'll all be found.
But when I can see the sun in your eyes,
you'll know they're reflecting skies.
There won't be a cloud hung over my head,
only thoughts that keep on adding up.

I can see, I can see more.
Track Name: Soles
And your eyes felt like the summer.
They were golden and compressed,
as the lids that held them slowly,
opened as your tongue then said,
"You know the earth is my hotel,
and you know I'll pay my rent.
And I know the Smiths don't get along,
but can't we make amends?"

Can you say it's alright?

The bench we sat on collapsed,
just as history suggests.
And the tree that it was made from,
gave me more than one last breath.
The birds that lost all their homes,
they were only making nests.
With the leaves crumbled in my hand,
I felt the sunrise as I asked,

Can you say it's all right?

And the ones you said are the ones we said we got.
Track Name: Pixels
The Pixelations on my screen are telling me I spend too much time at home,
and the fact that I can say this outloud is telling me I spend too much time alone.

You've got the reason, you've got the voice, just let it out.

I've been piecing it together since '93, but I still can't believe everything I see.
Well, my wick is burning and my time is short, but I'll catch fire and burn for some time more.

You've got the reason, you've got the voice, just let it out.

The ones that talk, the ones that walk, you know they're all de mute.
The ones that walk, the ones that talk, you know they're all de mute.
Track Name: Atmosphere
Don't you know the world is round?
Everyone's crooked, now.
Don't you know who you are?
Everyone's a burning star.

-------------------

The atmosphere is a one way mirror.
Lord knows who's looking on our side.
Stars've been traveling a million years.
Lord knows if they were gunna collide,
right back where you are.

Lewis has been looking for seas.
I can't find you, well why can't you find me?
I lost you but I found the shore.
I lost you but I found the cure.
Now we're right back from the start.

Look through me, see everything you want to know.
You'll see the things that you and I've become, you know.
Planets spin and pull apart, but stars, we don't.
