Naked Apes

Come in and take a seat
Right where you’re meant to be
Hold it all together
There’s nothing in the way
Everything’s gold and green
If you want it to be
This storm is made to weather
We’re breaking through the grey
We are all the same
Brothers from another
There’s something here to save for naked apes
Noble, naughty, souls and bodies, oh
There’s nothing left to say for naked apes
Secrets are meant to keep
Only for you and me
We can make it better
And take them to the grave
And when it comes to seed
There’s really no rush to reap
We can sow together
And grow another day
We are all the same
Brothers from another
There’s something here to save for naked apes
Noble, naughty, souls and bodies, oh
There’s nothing left to say for naked apes
Time will find us
Stories bind us
Life reminds us
To put aside our fickle minds because
We are all the same
Brothers from another
There’s something here to save for naked apes
Noble, naughty, souls and bodies, oh
There’s nothing left to say for naked apes

Sunburn
03:39
|
|||
Waking up, your soul is hurting
Don’t know why, but you’re wading through the weeds
I can say one thing for certain
In your mind what bleeds will lead
And you’re bleeding
And you’re bleeding
Here we are
With a sunburn on your heart
(sunburn on your heart)
Things got hard
But you’ve healed without a scar
Are we learning as we’re living
Let it die and we can take it on the chin
Maybe all will be forgiven
And the knife won’t break the skin
Here we are
With a sunburn on your heart
(sunburn on your heart)
Things got hard
But you’ve healed without a scar
Here we are
With a sunburn on your heart
(sunburn on your heart)
Things got hard
But you’ve healed without a scar
(sunburn on your heart)
Well here we are
(sunburn on your heart)
Right on your heart

Arrow

These days everything is temporary
Built to last is in the past, I’m only
Saying it’s a shame to see
The world around me slowly fleeting
Am I not alone
I’ve been thinking a lot these days
That I want somebody who’s here to stay
You came into my life one day
And I guess all I’m trying to do is say
All I want is you
To keep my arrow true
So it goes, another day made obsolete
Nothing’s savoury anymore, it’s cheap and sweet
I don’t need an answer
I just wanna feel my feet below my knees
I’ve been thinking a lot these days
That I want somebody who’s here to stay
You came into my life one day
And I guess all I’m trying to do is say
All I want is you
To keep my arrow true
I’ve been thinking a lot these days
That I want somebody who’s here to stay
You came into my life one day
And I guess all I’m trying to do is say
All I want is you
To keep my arrow true
All I want is you
To keep my arrow true

Creatures Of Habit
04:13
|

I was saying just the other day
Feel out of place and in a daze
Although it could've been the lemon haze
And remembering the better days
As if I don't have them in spades
Oh well I guess some things will never change
We all, are we all just creatures of habit
(Creatures of habit)
With dreams in boxes up in the attic
At times I feel so fuckin' nostalgic
For now, we're all still creatures of habit
(Creatures of habit)
As we settle in to celebrate
Without a smile upon my face
Because my mind is in another place
With all the smooth-talking renegades
Who like to claim they're here to stay
I wouldn't have it any other way
We all, are we all just creatures of habit
(Creatures of habit)
With dreams in boxes up in the attic
At times I feel so fuckin' nostalgic
For now, we're all still creatures of habit
(Creatures of habit)
We all, are we all just creatures of habit
(Creatures of habit)
With dreams in boxes up in the attic
At times I feel so fuckin' nostalgic
For now, we're all still creatures of habit
(Creatures of habit)

Baby Don't Self Destruct
03:09
|
|||
Beauty for beauty’s sake
And music for the muse’s wake
Maybe if we’re lucky, that’s enough to fill the empty space
But all along there never was a dotted line to trace
Only a feeling
And that is believing
Baby don’t self destruct (x4)
Baby don’t self destruct
Baby don’t self destruct
I know you wanna test your luck
But baby don’t self destruct
If you’ve a tongue to taste
You’ll know it by the empty plate
Sugar for the bitters and alcohol to put you in your place
For the morning there’s a half a glass, it lies in wait
And for you to decide is what to do
With all the negative space
Baby don’t self destruct (x4)
Baby don’t self destruct
I know you wanna test your luck
Baby don’t self destruct
Baby don’t self destruct
All along there never was
Such an enemy as us
All along, all along, all along
We self destruct
All along there never was
Such an enemy as us
All along…

Late Breakfast For Crows
03:43
|
|||
Arc of a consequence
Embark on a means to an end
Falter for a moment just to feel something new
Instantly regretting everything you didn’t do
Curtain call, last show
What happens, god knows
Late breakfast for crows
Wind up and let go
Arc of consciousness
The start of a bitter end
Does it really matter if you know you’ll never know
Bound to live forever or a late meal for crows
Curtain call, last show
What happens, god knows
Late breakfast for crows
Wind up and let go

End Of This
04:22
|
|||
Got it on a road trip
Coulda been a rocket ship
Somewhere between here and there
But I remember breathing air
Was it just a flashing pan
Product of a mortal man
Desperate to fill the cup
Why should I even give a fuck
Come the day, we will fly away
And we’ll rid ourselves of all this doubt
And turn it inside out
‘Cause I can see the end of this coming
I can see the end of this coming
I can see the end of our running away
Does it really make the cut
Or is it barely good enough
The eternal question posed
Poetry or empty prose
I’m lying to myself again
The comfort of a common sin
Have a really fucked it up
I guess it’s not for me to judge
Come the day, we will fly away
And we’ll rid ourselves of all this doubt
And turn it inside out
‘Cause I can see the end of this coming
I can see the end of this coming
I can see the end of our running away
Come the day, we will fly away
And we’ll rid ourselves of all this doubt
And turn it inside out
‘Cause I can see the end of this coming
I can see the end of this coming
I can see the end of our running away

Fidelity High
02:58
|
|||
Baby please don’t sugar coat
If you say you mean it
Then I’ll believe it
The saccharin-sweet cavity
Every word repeated
Is trust depleted
Fidelity high
Never wondering why
Even if we rock the boat
As the winds are changing
Then I’m remaining
‘Cause what is this anyway
If with one small fumble
The whole thing crumbles
Fidelity high
Never wondering why
Never wondering why
Fidelity high

Wonder If You Know
04:32
|
|||
Well I was always late, babe
I’m late getting home
I’ll take another day, babe
I’ll figure what went wrong
I wonder
I wonder if you know
I’ve been spending all of my time
Thinking ‘bout you alone
I close my eyes at night
I try to sleep okay
I’ll kiss your smile goodbye
I’ll try to wake up late
I wonder
I wonder if you know
I’ve been spending all of my time
Thinking ‘bout you alone
And if you saw me right now
Would there be anything to say anymore
Is everything you hate about me
Everything you loved me for
I wonder
I wonder if you know
I’ve been spending all of my time
Thinking ‘bout you alone
I wonder
I wonder if you know
I’ve been spending all of my time
Thinking ‘bout you alone
I’m thinking ‘bout you alone
Was it everything you loved me for
Was it everything you loved me for

Night Drive
03:27
|
|||
Find an escape if you can
And help one another
There’s room on this raft for the both of us
And you know you can trust me
Saying a prayer, fighting for air
Filling your lungs like the bellows
When you’re ready just let go
Gotta get to the end somehow
Gotta get to the end somehow
And I know things are bad right now but we
Gotta get to the end somehow
Is it just part of the plan
That we’d be forgotten
Played like a pawn in a losing game
But the tables are turning
Taking a stand, holding my hand
Empty your lungs of their burden
In a moment you notice you’re breathing in
Takes a lot to save a life
Takes a lot to say goodbye
Gotta get to the end somehow
Gotta get to the end somehow
And I know things are bad right now but we
Gotta get to the end somehow
(Takes a lot to save a life)
Gotta get to the end somehow
(Takes a lot to say goodbye)
Gotta get to the end somehow
Get to the end, get to the end
And fall back and do it again
Get to the end, get to the end
And fall back and do it again
Do it again…
