Inroads 03:35
Walking down the same old road won't get you far I've been told. You've got to survey the land. Blaze a trail while you cut your line, close the loop and transit new boulevards and you will find me. Or maybe you won't. Think about lightening your load. Now all you've bought has been sold. It’s just you and your inroads. Take in stride, bask in the light, dwell in darkness, but keep the body strong. And you will find me or maybe you won't. Lay down some radical roots deep in the lithosphere. Staying for a life you built and everything you've got here. Yeah, you want what you've got. Believe it or not, the rest/best is yet to come. We'll make a new home.

Starry Night 04:05
Here we are again. What will we discover in this open forum; let another in. But you've never been there, you haven't seen what I have seen with open eyes. The sun with the moon in the starry night. Don't you run, don't you hide, 'cause your love still remains from last night. Mysteries shrouded in ambiguity Clouding over possibilities Storming sensibility Come on baby, baby come on now. Light the match. Burn through this darkened sky's starry night. We're further ephemeral than the sun upon the soul. But I'd never been there, I'd only dreamed what I had seen so I surmised: the sun with the moon in the starry night. Mysteries shrouded in ambiguity Clouding over possibilities Storming sensibility You cannot contain this feeling. You've been drowning in seas of fate and destiny. Is this who is the real me?

Sly like a fox, Strong as an ox, Ear to the ground for every sound. Listened to how the mountain talks. Remain as you are. Sustain the phantasmagoria. Here is the right place at this right time. Enabled the thoughts for a right frame of mind. You are the judge withholding a grudge. The sage self critiques; It's his domain. From this peak, I can see purely now. That rainbow pushing in after them clouds. What's essential appears before the heart. King of the mountain’s trying to climb down. I will forever be gone in your eyes. It's been all night long and the fountain's all dried up. You couldn't have ever have seen this from the start and predicted walking on egg shells around me.

Oversight 03:08
I'd say that you should run further from this girl, bro. You've discover the truth, yet still it's up to you to strike the flint; alight that spark of your sunny ways. Despite the loss of those dreams. You're not an oversight. Or giving into the lies you've been told and cast aside. I feel your pain across that which we are apart, but learning to live on your own is such a poignant lesson. I just know you'll come out on top as you weather the storm. And everyday forward provides relief and as it's easier to look in the mirror, steer your life towards new views that can be seen clearer through a stained glass window pane. Pain pouring out from this girl, bro. Learning to live on your own is such a poignant lesson. I just know you'll come out on top as you weather the storm. Despite the loss of those dreams. You're not an oversight. Or giving into the lies you've been told and cast aside. He'd been merely always faithful as no eye wanders; walking that line. When he should've been running away.

Although the songs can be diverse from one another, there is a glue that holds them together like any concept album would. ... more
