I feel so good
try and stop me now
the view is so serene
please believe me
everything is awesome
everything is so cool
Im so glad that we all made it
right here
right now
smooth grooves move
my feet don't touch the ground
thermals push me higher
Im never coming back down
everything is awesome
everything is so cool
Im so glad that we all made it
right here
right now
I just cant deny
what a wonderful life
what a wonderful time
and even though it might seem tough
you've gotta hold on
you've gotta get by

way down the end of the line,
attempts to make you into a new design,
force the pieces to fit and to align,
with absent instructions there are,
there are too many pieces,
I cant stop tripping, over my own feet.

Holding on, to the edge
I'm losing grip of the precipice
Impending doom, has become
my reality this afternoon
listen, to your inner voice
good things are certain
don't hesitate, the parachute
will catch your rapid decent
one door closes, another one opens
it just takes one step to get through
free falling, fear is your only god
free falling, fear is your only god
I don't want to, fail miserably
but failure is necessary

Lost in Otaki

fields of green, floating river dreams
barefoot kids are free to run the streets
throwing stones over busy roads
someone take them home, where?
no-one knows
here we are, still alive
simply lost in Otaki
hungover sunny skies
greasy fingertips, burger and fries
wednesday checkpoint down Tasman Road
the ocean is calling you
but you have to go home
here we are, still alive
simply lost in Otaki

under the light
there is a balance
between opinions of foes
conspiracy on all that is known
take everything with a grain of salt
misinformation
my eyes are full
yet my ears are still hungry
propaganda feeds the starving world
absent reason
is highly entertaining
so you invent the Anti-Moon

fifteen days blurred into one
couldn't say the time
if my life
depended on it
just like Battle Star Galactica
our eyes were left
blood red
when will this end
Iv'e got to get to bed
and rest my worn head
how did it all begin
I just want it all to end
and leave me in peace
lets take one more small hit
the start of the next script
but this will not be enough
tomorrow you better call the shrink
its gotten worse than we think
sadistic violence

you were thinking something else and I was thinking it too
different planes of reality we could travel to
and I don't know what the hell Im supposed to do
and shits just getting crazy
Im trying to remember how Im supposed to act
like a normal human being but then I cracked
I think Im going crazy as a matter of fact
but I guess that time will tell
I thought of what to say and then I opened my mouth
but the sentence that I made just wouldn't come out
it sounded like another language just about
where do I belong
the room was spinning round because of my headache
a hundred things on my mind that keep me awake
nothing really matters for heaven sake
don't let it bring you down

Warm Socks

when you like to go away
you leave me here
alone except for cold air
to keep me company
I retire to the kitchen
I spend the night
coughing and itching
so tired
but my beds so far away
leaning over the damp bench
I switch on the kettle
to brew a pot of tea
but the powers been shut off again
peeking out between the curtains
I notice that
there is a massive tidal wave
I don't think I will survive this day
the apocalypse is approaching
warm socks are very comforting
in these times of terror
warm socks are very comforting

who has been contaminating
the oceans with droppings
people listening to the screaming
is this fun or is this just demeaning
one final nail
you turned the hounds loose
a language of lies
nowhere to run
and nowhere to hide
destruction and death
no longer alive
the cost of profit
we've all been compromised
how many turns are there
the sun is spinning
and so is everything else
if all is falling constantly accelerating
are we not just simply stationary
you turned the hounds loose
a language of lies
nowhere to run
and nowhere to hide
destruction and death
no longer alive
the cost of profit
we've all been compromised

Im never gonna live this down
as long as I stick around this place
who are you really and why must you deny these facts on and on
and for what ever reason
I sabotage the purest intentions
while you beat me down, down
with the mistakes I have made a long time ago
Im never gonna live this down
as long as I stick around this place
