Reset 00:55
lyrics
Start over, reset Fire water, erase regret Troubled stone that the builder refused Fill the cracks with plastic and glue
2.
Memento Mori 02:38
lyrics
Spending everyday, trying to find a way to hold it down, hold it down now There's nothing in a name, just a player in the game, all alone and no one left to blame now Nothing stays the same, it's always gonna change, before you know it's all been rearranged now Replaced with something strange
3.
Rough Stuff Type Deal 03:38
lyrics
I've spent my fair share of time alone Maybe too much is what you keep tellin me I've given my life a time or two But was it for me and not for you? I've tried to give myself away So many times I have felt ashamed And every smile I had to fake Has added to this unbearable weight Aint got no time to mess around So pick yourself up from off the ground I could say these clouds will go away But they'll probably come back someday
4.
Snuff 03:29
lyrics
When my time comes, and y'all lay me down When the bell tolls and I'm underground Don't you cry for me, 'cause I can finally sleep Don't you worry, 'cause it's not so cold Don't get in no hurry, to grow old 'Cause life is so fleeting So keep your heart beating If there's a lesson here, let me know We stake our claim here, then we go And what I leave behind, will be lost in time Live while you've got the chance I'll make it home at last
5.
Forks 02:20
lyrics
How do you know which way to go When you come upon a fork in the road And do you know when you will be coming back again? How many miles must I roam Before I come upon a place I call home I do not know when I will be coming back again The fruit is hanging on the vine Just out of reach, truth divine The snake is me and it's my own lie
6.
Prosaic 03:23
lyrics
Picked apart by another night turning wrenches Countin' days til I'm back home sittin' on the benches Not much for the small talk that fills the hours, but I'll make it through for a chance at an ivory tower Sucked out, beat down by synthetic vultures That's how it goes, another victim of the plastic culture We don't need another pontiff to give permission, speakin' for a god that only punishes Never listens It's a hard knock life when you're pushin' pencils Hard to look alive when your life is so penitential All alone, on the throne, he sits in desperation Crown of thorns on his head from his own congregation

Bodhi Tree 02:12

Polymer 03:04
lyrics
Stand in the light right now And rise above the crowd So you can shout it out A lesson wrapped in gold A place to call your home Where you never sleep alone In the phosphorescent glow You can stay a while, I'll be back when I Find a reason why The forest had to die The truth was with us all along Hidden in a song A plastic ball and chain A signal in the brain Comin' down with summer rain Comes and goes without a stain Drippin' down a window pane In the house we had to make Had to make Had to make Had to make What has been will be again What's been done will be done again There is nothing new Under the sun
