No Pain 03:30
When they say yes baby see how you feel, see how you feel, see how you feel When they say yes baby see how you feel, That’s how you’ll know That’s how you’ll know There is no pain for us here No pain for us here There is no pain for us here I’ve got chains of roses tough enough to break glass When I’m at my wits end You turn barbed wire into grass When they say yes baby see how you feel, see how you feel, see how you feel When they say yes baby see how you feel, That’s how you’ll know That’s how you’ll know A slow motion race and we both come in last Because we’re laying in our field finding which cloud is the best There is no pain for us here No pain for us here There is no pain for us here For us here For us here For us here

Traveler 04:02
Every man and woman who walks through that door carries their entire history Name a year I’ll tell you where I’ve been I don’t have a bad but a preferential memory The pieces that I’ve held on, to be But that’s a really nice thing I’m the blind traveler finding my way home by feeling the trees I’m the blind traveler finding my way home by feeling the trees The destination it was always inside of me But it’s funny to see where I was looking I’ll take credit for my own satisfaction but I still feel like thanking somebody The pieces that I’ve held on, to be But that’s a really nice thing I’m the blind traveler finding my way home by feeling the trees I’m the blind traveler finding my way home by feeling the trees I shake new hands to uncover a new mystery The truth about me is I’m always listening La la la la, la la la la la traveler, traveler La la la la, la la la la la Traveler Traveler Traveler

English voiceover with English subtitles for a German Sci-Fi show A Gatorade an everything bagel and two Tylenol The door says push yet I pull the knob back The pink tip of a match turns black The pink tip of a match turns black Your face was easy from familiarity But by golly if only I knew You’re like the show that I watch Where the captions are wrong The pink tip of a match turns black The pink tip of a match turns black There's no more seasons or reason to stay in I may have lost this one What I thought was a friend Your face was so easy from familiarity The pink tip of a match turns black The pink tip of a match turns black English voiceover with English subtitles for a German Sci-Fi show A Gatorade an everything bagel and two Tylenol The door says push yet I pull the knob back The pink tip of a match turns black The pink tip of a match turns black Bye, bye, bye, bye Bye, bye, bye, bye Bye, bye, bye, bye Bye, bye, bye, bye

Vacuum 03:03
Mmm, mmm, mmm If I could give you anything, I’d give you this It’s the best vacuum cleaner you’ve ever put your hands on Because you haven’t touched much apart from the door Watch the dust leave your apartment floor Because the name of the day when you walk to your car it’s staring you in the face wondering where you are And when you realize where you come from maybe you’ll be okay in your own home Falling ins and falling outs, and falling ins and falling outs Falling ins and falling outs, and falling ins and falling outs If I could give you anything, I’d give you this It’s the best vacuum cleaner you’ll ever put your hands on Because you only live by the things that you know But the least you could do is clean your home Falling ins and falling outs, and falling ins and falling outs And falling ins and falling outs Falling ins and falling outs, and falling ins and falling outs And falling ins and falling outs Mmm, mmm, mmm

I Can Help 03:51
I can help I can help It’s a little early for this, It’s a little late for that I guess the arms of my clock Have started to grow fat And the face of my clock Looks a bit mad I bet the repair man Will say It just got it wet And then he’ll tell me Insurance won’t cover that And then he’ll sell me A refurbished replacement I can help Maybe a reminder Or a small remedy To remind me then and again To take time to breathe You know, the deep breaths That take you to the sea and back Not just the ones That keep ticking Suddenly I see a white glow from the west And it tells me Insurance won’t cover that It's a beautiful day to spend at the beach At the edge of where the water comes and leaves An exhale and where I’m at Is just my apartment Check it out, I learned how to breathe I can help I can help I can help I can help

RinseRepeat 04:40
Are you wondering why You don’t give yourself away? That’s a code my dear You plan them up, You can’t break through The other ones You want into It gets easier after it gets harder Rinse, repeat It gets easier after it gets harder Rinse, repeat You can try to be candid, But deep down fear a consequence Just give the dog a human bowl It will not know the difference So now what you never asked for Is what you receive It gets easier after it gets harder Rinse, repeat It gets easier after it gets harder Rinse, repeat A code my dear, Is a sword in the rock A code my dear, Is a weird patterned knock A code my dear Is in everything you see It gets easier after it gets harder Rinse, repeat It gets easier after it gets harder Rinse, repeat It gets easier after it gets harder Rinse, repeat It gets easier after it gets harder Rinse, repeat

Our heads all swaying in synchronicity Where the world is silent and we’re listening Someone hasn’t broken their promise for a symphony It’s top secret but I’ll tell you it goes on whispering I thought differently down there before the ascend Days in dewey decimal system then forgetting what they meant Now I’m staring at the clouds from the other end Laughing at the thing that knocked me down from them Though I must admit, I could use a hug from my homie And I wonder if they’ll ever know And I wonder if they’ll ever know Launched to the ceiling by the press of a pen They did say velcro is a best friend Outside the border not a single amen As I’m floating to where I go from where I once went Though I must admit, I could use a hug from my homie And I wonder if they’ll ever know And I wonder if they’ll ever know Pings and swells expand and combine A wad of water around my eyes I can drive this thing Bonjour rebirth Greetings, goodbye My mother earth That's what a cloud looks like from the other end

The best thing that I ever wrote was a letter to my mother Written with my left hand Stating I want to use other parts Of my brain Feels like I’m only using 10% Now I’m relentlessly scratching some mosquito bite And I miss those thoughts I cannot not sleep, cannot sleep I have to save the world from evil misery Cannot leave, cannot leave 8 hours are expected of me That letter never reached my mother and had no return address It is missing, yet There’s nothing lost A prize can take up no space, and fill an eternal heart Save mean’s set free, don’t you think? I cannot not sleep, cannot sleep All the heroes unite and hands in on 3 Cannot leave, cannot leave 8 hours are quickly disappearing It’s 9 o’clock in Las Vegas I wish she still was in Las Vegas She was in Las Vegas She was It’s only 9 o’clock in Las Vegas I wish she still was in Las Vegas She was in Las Vegas She was It’s only 9 o’clock in Las Vegas I wish she still was in Las Vegas She was in Las Vegas She was It’s only 9 o’clock in Las Vegas I wish she still was in Las Vegas She Was

Mothers 03:58
OOOOOO EE AAAAA If mankind was endless stacked webs Us all being separate strings Let's say I were to break, would I even shake the damn thing? But my love grows without a doubt 
A giant spitball in the oysters mouth My will of life and that’s enough, and that’s enough Mothers telling daughters to be mother telling daughters, to be mothers telling daughters to be mother telling daughters, to be If mankind was endless stacked webs us all being separate strings lets say I were to break, would I even shake the damn thing? Mothers telling daughters to be mother telling daughters, to be mothers telling daughters to be mother telling daughters, to be OOOOOO EE AAAAA If mankind was endless stacked webs us all being separate strings lets say I were to break, would I even shake the damn thing? If mankind was endless stacked webs us all being separate strings lets say I were to break, would I even shake the damn thing?
