Armoury

My heart of has burned
And my thoughts have churned
While my body’s yearned for this
My silhouette’s on the wall
And it’s looking at yours
It would be easy to fall
But I’m in my echo chamber talking it through
Yes in my echo chamber I can’t hear you
Put your hands on my, lift them to the sky
And all the time I
Dance in armoury
Whisper in my ear, words that I can’t hear
As I draw you near
I dance in armoury
You show me your teeth
Cos your talk is cheap
And that smile once made me weak
So move on in
Touch my thick skin
I’m never gonna let you in
CH
I know that you can’t tell the truth
Still your words mean more than I want them to
And when your words mean more than I want them to
I dance
Dance
Dance in armoury

Shared Hallucinations
03:34
|

I look though your eyes like binoculars
To see what you see
Hold my intuition
To feel the rush
I feel you breathe
I’m completely here
And you’re completely near
And we’re completely
In our shared hallucination
Fiction’s predictions might always might never come true
But I can trust fictions predictions while I’m here with
… our shared hallucinations
I look in your eyes like they’re mirrors
I See what i see
I hold my questions
This moment’s enough
And I breathe
I belong to
And you belong to
Yes we belong to
Our shared hallucination
Reflections projections are almost always better than truth
But I’ll trust reflections projections while I’m here with….
our shared hallucinations

Ordinary Magic
03:39

Feel me
Through the distance
Would you feel me
Know me
Like I know you
Would you know me
I’m jealous of every space between us
I move
Through the distance
Just to know you
I choose
To know who I am
When I’m with you
As I …
If I look in your eyes would you show me ordinary magic
And if I let myself go would you show me ordinary magic
Could we keep it, trust it, know it, hold it, feel it
Keep it, trust it, know it, hold it, feel it
Play the scene
I’ll let you be you
Let me be me
Watch me
Replace fantasy
With all I see
IF I
CH
You have ghost and I do too (I have ghosts and so do you)
We’ll keep them behind us
We will slip and we will fall (we will slip and we will fall)
And keep putting it behind us

Replica

If I draw around my eyes - can you see them?
If I stick eyelashes on - will I thrive?
If I colour my lips in - am I understood?
If I paint my cheekbones on - do I look alive?
Am I alive?
I go out into the world - as a replica
I leave my true self behind
It’s preserved and un-deterred by the mean old world
Am I alive?
I forgot how to be myself - I’m just a replica
My body’s numb and my mind needs help - I’m just a replica
I’ve lost empathy for myself - I’m just a replica
And I want my old body back
I want my old body back
I made a wish - I wanted to feel less
I tried potions so emotions would subside
Til one day I saw my old self trapped behind glass
I couldn’t get to the other side
I forgot how to be myself - I’m just a replica
My body’s numb and my mind needs help - I’m just a replica
I’ve lost empathy for myself - I’m just a replica
And I want my old body back
I want my old body back
The machine will teach me to be human
The machine will teach me how to be
The machine will teach me to be human
The machine
The machine will make me human

Eve & Adam
03:26

I was built from your bone
You called me woman
You showed me ‘round the world
You got to first
It was green, there were trees, more than I’d ever seen
You told me I was lucky
You said
Be nice, be nice, be nice, be good
Be nice, be nice, be nice, be good
Be nice, be nice, be nice, be good
So I was
You told me about this fruit
It was forbidden
We walked around in birthday suits
Tried to ignore it
Then there was this snake, it said g’on have a taste
And I knew that I shouldn’t
That I should
Be nice, be nice, be
nice, be good
Be nice, be nice, be nice, be good
Be nice, be nice, be nice, be good
Well
We ate the apple from the tree
You blamed the woman
They wrote it down in history
For all to learn
We both made that mistake
It was not ours to take
You told your tales on me
Said I was
Not nice, not nice, not nice, not good
Not nice, not nice, not nice, not good
Not nice, not nice, not nice, not good
Well that’s fine
Cos this skin I’m in is mine
So take your clothes and go
Take your clothes and go
Take your clothes and go
Take your clothes and go
Take your clothes and go go go go go go
